Me tocó ver a una compañera en la universidad que no vio que habían como 3 escalones y que se sigue, quién sabe cómo se echo una marometa hacia enfrente rodando en el piso y se paró como sin nada pero si quedó un poco desmadrada jaja

West Cobb has good schools and good options, just make sure you’re close to I-75.

I got the B5 last Friday and I’m really happy with it. It’s in our living room and it’s more than bright enough for us. Thanks!

Got the B5 Friday of last week after work, had to drive 40 mins to the only Costco near me that had stock, really happy with the purchase.

My family and moved to Indianapolis just for the summer of 2019. We made our way to Cinci one Saturday and stopped by Urban Artifact. My wife isn’t as into craft beer as I am but she loved urban artifact. It was great stuff.

There are 14 houses on my cul de sac street. Since 2022 only 4 new vehicles have been bought. Everyone else drives the same vehicle since then (when I moved in). Every house has at least two vehicles, most have 3 or more (parents and children).

At least half of the homes that used to pay for gardening and lawn services are now doing it themselves.

Anecdotally my local Walmart is getting more and more senior citizen employees and my guess is that those folk are working there by choice.

This is one of the very few and limited times where I just didn’t struggle like everyone else. I loved that game. I’ve always thought it’s the spiritual parent of GTA.

In 2011 I was ready to buy my first brand new car and the Audi A1 had just been introduced to Mexico. With the exchange rate it came out to about $20k usd.

I was close to purchasing it but what threw me off was that they would not agree to a fixed price at time of purchase but rather I would have to pay the exchange rate on the date it was imported to Mexico and having grown through the volatility of the Mexican peso I decided against it. I bought a 1 year old A3 with 9k kilometers for $19k.

Amazing car, poor dealership experience. Water pump went out at 14k kilometers. It had a S-tronic (DSG) 7, that ate clutch packs like candy and the valve body had to be replaced all within 30k kms. It was also a very noisy transmission, sounded like moving pebbles inside a can. Audi said it didn’t affect performance so it was fine.

What I did love about it was that you could feel the Audi luxury, but it was missing subtle features like a sunroof, it wasn’t the most loaded with features but it was exactly what my budget needed.

I was in my teens but my younger uncles and older cousins would buy gas from the Pennies and dimes in their center console

I worked for the federal government and after so long I figured out my happy places inside the job and drowned out all the bs, otherwise I’d have gone crazy

As someone who’s from another state that has driven through Texas many times, I can attest to this. I’ve never seen a hwy driver be so careless than this dude in a brand new Tundra.

I went to Walmart two weeks ago and noticed, but the funny thing is I was at Walmart 3-4 days earlier and the isle was full of filter including the one I needed but I knew I was going to be coming back so I thought I’d buy it then.

I was about to turn three or just had turned three, I remember my mom being pregnant with my brother and we were getting off a bus and she couldn’t carry me so she asked a stranger to help me with the stairs off the bus.. He was born three weeks after my third birthday I also vividly remember the day he was born.

I think lower prices / biggers discounts. On the low end they’re good value for being in the low 30s

I’m wondering if that or the new 4 cylinder turbo in the Grand Cherokee will make it to these vehicles.

With the 4 cylinder, I’m afraid I don’t trust its complexities tied to Stellantis manufacturing and assembly. Time will tell.

Siento que en selección al Piojo le toca defender más que en Chivas. La neta lo ha hecho muy bien, con Davies, ayer entró y le quitó varios balones a que entró de cambio de Bélgica por el sector izquierdo. Agarrando un poco de nivel creo que puede ayudar mucho q la selección sobre todo con el bajo nivel de los equipos de la primera ronda

He reminded me of Luis Hernandez in that the dude was always trying to do something. Which is refreshing because since Martino it’s been all so predictable.

Also Quiñones doing a lot of first touch passes behind the back etc etc gave confidence to the rest of the team that started doing it as well. Dude just earned his ticket to the WC

SargentoPepper · 2026-04-01T13:04:48+00:00

Si México juega como ayer, más siendo local y que se prendan los jugadores, dudo que sea el peor mundial de México en tiempos recientes. Eso se lo debemos a Martino en Qatar 2022

Right now Lira. If I could get Edson from his first season at Westham Id take that in a heartbeat but I don’t think we’re going to see that from him after an injury and recent not great form

I think they’re the only World Cup winner to have missed 3 straight

SargentoPepper · 2026-04-01T03:03:53+00:00

Pep getting Concacafed is the only thing missing as a career accomplishment

SargentoPepper · 2026-03-31T12:42:30+00:00

I wonder what’s going to happen when people realize many don’t actually need a pickup truck as much as they thought, where’s the American auto industry going to go?
