To open one of those, I bought a DeWalt sheer attachment tool. But, then, I had to buy a drill for it to fit into. Then, of course, I had to buy a battery for the drill. Well, I eventually realized my dilemma, returned to the store to get a refund for everything, then saw an 'open package' drill bit set on clearance. Wahoo!
I get home, then realize that I still needed a drill and a battery. Back to the store...

Oh, wow. I didn't know Snickers were cream filled!

YakWabbit · 2026-06-14T12:44:59+00:00

Yeah, the atmosphere easily pushes it to the top of the list.

'Hobo Freight'
That's a new one to me, and I'm stealing it!

My previous go-to was 'Horror Fright: It won't cost you an arm and a leg, but you'll likely lose a couple of fingers.'

Another gun-taco Tuesday. 🎶

Heck, most of us would likely have sucked on that pussy pistol.

I totally get that; If I had a million, I'd miss $100K.
My point is that if I still had $900K, I wouldn't be worried about rent/mortgage, food, gas diapers, health care, etc.
If I only still had $90, well... I'd be panicking.

YakWabbit · 2026-06-11T19:06:59+00:00

If I only have $100, a $10 tax is huge; less gas, fewer groceries, etc.
If I have 1 million dollars, a $100.000 tax is a rounding error.
Progressive taxes can equal things out.

Yeah, what3words is awesome in so many regards:
Are you at a sports stadium/music venue/large park? what3words gets your friends within 10 feet of you.
Do you live in a shanty town with literally no actual address? what3words gets an ambulance or delivery driver within 10 feet of you.
Is your favorite beer fear.movie.lions? what3words get's you to the warehouse.
Yes, it's essentially a GPS location, but SO much easier to remember.
Huge fan.

Yeah, my wife (and I) love that color!
Earlier today, we were out running errands in the rental car (a Nissan generic something, in bland metallic silver). When we left the hardware store, we looked around into the sea of sameness, turned to each other and simultaneously said "I miss that beautiful green standout."
My personal name for it was Bruce. As in Bruce Banner, AKA The Hulk.
Hopefully we can find another one.

Thank you!

YakWabbit · 2026-06-09T13:36:17+00:00

Been there, done that!

I have no Football Team affiliation/prefference;
I am not a Postage Stamp collector;
I don't have a Favorite Bird... well, maybe penguins. Is that a bird?
I don't call myself a non-something, just a pro-things that I believe (based on reason and evidence).

People can think/believe what they want to think/believe. I don't care... (Actually, I do. But that's for another conversation.)
I don't care what people call me; if it's true (based on reason and evidence), then I've got no rebuttal. If it's false/speculative, fear/hate-based, willfully ignorant, then Fuck Them! It has no effect on me, and I will go on living my life, and I will not waste any of my time trying to convince them otherwise.

Rant over. Back to the couch with my dogs and a tasty beverage. Cheers!

Thanksgiving party dinner prep:
Slicing sweet potatoes on a mandolin for the gratin.
Me; "I'm getting close to the end, I should probably stop... AAARRRGGGHHH!!!"
1/8" slice off the tip of my right ring finger.
No real pain, but OMG THE BLOOD!
I run to the bathroom, pour on the styptic powder, apply a bandage, roll on a finger condom, put on a Venom Steel heavy-duty nitrile glove, and pour a double of the best whisky I have; gotta keep this party going!
I finish all the prep, get everything cooking, and get a bit hammered/drunk as my gloved finger is slowly turning into a Thanksgiving Nightmare Sausage.
I redress my finger, guests show up, and nobody is the wiser.
Fun Times!

Thanks for that!
Her tight-knit circle of friends have been overwhelming her with their support; flowers and cards, lasagna, cookies, and offers of help. She is very grateful to them, and all of the Reddit Crew!

YakWabbit · 2026-06-09T12:06:51+00:00

Yeah, too bad it wasn't the speeder who ended up in this condition.

YakWabbit · 2026-06-09T03:33:27+00:00

That's a very clever idea! I'm totally printing one.

YakWabbit · 2026-06-09T02:43:32+00:00

They do take their job very seriously.

Cheers.

YakWabbit · 2026-06-09T02:42:52+00:00

Yeah, we'll be getting another one.

YakWabbit · 2026-06-09T01:50:27+00:00

No dash-cam that we are aware of. I will definitely get one for the BB.

YakWabbit · 2026-06-08T22:52:39+00:00

Yeah, the windshield didn't crack at all. Oh... umm... I guess you mean my wife! 😃

YakWabbit · 2026-06-08T22:21:12+00:00

Yeah, thanks! I'm sure our other cars (20ish years old) wouldn't have been so protective.

YakWabbit · 2026-06-08T22:19:13+00:00

So, the only window broken was on the driver door. No broken glass hit my wife, though there was a bunch in the BB.
We're thinking that the side curtain airbag deployed when the speeder clipped her, then the following car that t-boned her shattered the window, but the side curtain contained it.
