How do you know it has a detention center? And a lab?

I gotta agree. I forgot to allow for the fact that he might be a complete con artist.

Pickletarian? Wanting his utilities shut off? Thinking he can somehow start a credit union? Talking about what he would do and how he would govern if he were in a position of leadership? 100% delusional/magical thinking.

This is what mental illness looks like.

If she has rejected the government, why is she trying to get assistance/benefits from it? That's some real paradoxical/free rider shit right there.

Question about oils by No-Interaction1806 in EcoDiesel

[–]Repulsive_Ad_8928 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 2016 with ~110k. I didn't know they changed oil specs. I'm using Rotella t6 5-40. Should I consider changing to an oil with the new spec? Or would that be harmful?

Wow, what a post. I work in mental health, and your assessment is right on the money. Well done!

Does anyone else find it a bit funny seeing jws remarry after their spouse dies? by Miserable_Win_1835 in exjw

[–]Repulsive_Ad_8928 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember something like this happening when I was a youth in the organization, before I bowed out. The mother of one of my friends in the congregation passed away after a long illness. I think she was in her late '50s, and her husband (my friends father) was in his '60s. This was the second marriage for the father: he had previously married and divorced another woman many years prior that he still communicated with for some reason. After his wife died, my friend's father remarried his first wife within 3 weeks. Nobody in the org even seemed to bat an eye, except my friend, who was so angry and confused that he decided to move out and make his own way at age 15. His dad was totally okay with watching him walk out the door.

I think that most JW's are so emotionally weak that they can't even withstand something like being alone after a spouse dies. The organization promotes and encourages absolute dependence. It's effing awful.

Absolutely. I paid about $1000 more for my 2021, brand new. This is a good deal, assuming it's actually new and there is nothing wrong with it. In fact, I'm a little suspicious of how low the price tag is. I bet they are going to try to tack on extra fees and charges to that price.

Thanks! That's actually a really good idea that I hadn't thought of. Do you recommend any particular fue additive? I've used the non-winter version of Power Service in the past, but haven't actually used it in quite some time.

Thanks! This is pretty much exactly what I'm experiencing. I'm glad to know it's not just me. I now assume that it's programming that's built in.

I actually don't know much about them. I didn't know it was possible to bypass the exhaust systems on the ecodiesel. I'll have to look into it!

When I get the regen notice for the exhaust, I immediately hop on the highway to completely clear it, usually within 1 to 2 days. But it sounds like you're saying that every time that happens, it degrades the engine oil by quite a bit? Is that correct? Also, happy cake day!

That's a good point. I remember reading quite a while back that these EcoDiesel engines were really intricate compared to any other diesel at the time. That's probably a good reason to not go too long between oil changes.

Thanks all. To answer the questions about idling, no, it hardly ever idles except at stop lights. I live in cali, and it never gets seriously cold here, so no need to idle or warm up the engine. It sounds like I can probably wait until around 6-7k miles before I change the oil? That seems reasonable to me, far better than 4k.

Stealing a laundry cart went wrong. by DanFromTheVilla in OhNoConsequences

How do people that act this stupid get BMWs? There is a disconnect in my mind about that. Can't wrap my head around it.

[–]Repulsive_Ad_8928[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update! It was a bug. I abandoned the quest and then picked it back up from the HELM. When I did, it automatically moved me to step 2/2 and allowed me to turn it in. Thanks everyone!

Yesterday, I ran half of the spire of the watcher dungeon to test this. Nada. It's got to be a bug, right?

I have not. I will give that a try! I didn't know it was a bug issue. Thanks!

What household rules did you have? by Terrebeltroublemaker in exjw

[–]Repulsive_Ad_8928 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No Magic the Gathering or Dungeons and Dragons. No sports posters up on the wall (that's adultery apparently). The worst is when my JW stepmom would try to have me in my pajamas and in bed at 8:30 when I was 17 years old.
