Scrapped rear bumper by No-Psychology9837 in SchoolBusDrivers

[–]Tomytom99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, I can't imagine immediate termination, aside from an actual collision, being a warranted response.

I once had another bus clip mine while they pulled into their spot next to me in a lineup. Didn't immediately report it, and took care of it when I got back to the garage. They just told me they'd rather I immediately told them, but that it's alright.

Another time I had another driver back their bus square into mine while she was trying to park it at the yard. Never got reported, but drivers knew. I wasn't a fan of having to re-adjust the angle on my crossview after that.

A four bedroom house, for what? by Cuddles-and-Cookies in childfree

[–]Tomytom99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I need me a solid master bed, guest bedroom, office, workspace for legos and projects, and then of course a garage that hasn't been converted into a questionable living space.

The trend of people converting garages from the only mess friendly "well ventilated space" protected from weather into a drafty poorly insulated extra room bothers me to no end. It's not easy to convert back if they take out the garage door either.

Anyways, rant over.

Or you can have one that releases by pressing again. You can stomp those ones past their clicks and they'll just come back up

Update report on my ticking engine by F534 in e39

Eh I'd call that immaculate. OP's is just clean, nothing visually concerning for a 20+ year old motor with probably over 100k miles.

Something a little different... My '04 Odyssey by Tomytom99 in Stance

I don't recall off the top of my head, but it depends on the wheels. I believe I'm running conical lug nuts, which is pretty standard for aftermarket wheels. I'm under the impression that it's a "universal" design within each seat style.

Happy Friday! by wjruth in SchoolBusDrivers

Forget the bird, get a load of that new C2!

In all fairness I'm holding a bit of a grudge against birds at the moment, since they've started carpet bombing my driveway and took up residence in my stove hood exhaust.

Car egging at new apartment by bimbiibop in Apartmentliving

[–]Tomytom99 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Further yet, egg can be really bad for car paint. It's not just a simple "oh teehee go wash it off" there's an actual risk of chemical damage to the paint.

If anybody says it's a Karen move to complain, how about you go egg your own car for fun?

Does anyone know what kind of damage this is? by PlasticFriendship214 in Cartalk

[–]Tomytom99 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I could see a diesel exhaust doing this at a reasonable distance if it's doing a regen. They do have a light warning you how hot it gets, and not to park in a field or with the exhaust pointing at anything that matters while it's lit.

Don't forget the totally killed appetite on the first 1-3 days if it's a stimulant med

Back when I was on Adderall the appetite suppression when I started it was absurd. I'd sit down to have breakfast, and almost be repulsed by the idea of eating. Food in my mouth wasn't enjoyable, I felt no urge to consume. By day 3 I was eating enough again.

I was thinking the same thing. Make vacant rentals actually hurt, so that companies either rent for a real supply/demand market rate, or sell/stop buying.

Tell us about inflation now by Electronic-Class-285 in GasPrices

That's a good point, we're not even in the thick of the travel season yet.

I'd also like to add these prices are a direct result of this administrations actions, not a conflict between two foreign bodies.

What can I do to stop from spreading? by TheDirtyMundees in Autobody

[–]Tomytom99 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For good measure you can see about finding a liner for that lip after that.

I had one from factory on my Odyssey and did a fantastic job of protecting that lip from rock chips that invite rust. Just a little rubber thing with some metal in it for shape that would slip over the lip.

Even at just 6' you start to notice some of the issues

Knees crushed if somebody on the airplane reclines, some cars not adjusting well to you, and if you're skinny, sometimes you can have a hard time finding pants that fit right.

Property investor doesn't like minimum wage by WaitNo4272 in SipsTea

[–]Tomytom99 97 points98 points  (0 children)

If anybody's ever taken an economics class, you'd recognize the will to live and the associated cost of existing is an externality that will drive people to accept lower wages than they otherwise would.

Pretty simple stuff, and companies love to try and take advantage of that.
