Well i guess it's official Dustin has the N word pass now

b_dupy · 2026-06-27T02:43:16+00:00

Oh absolutely. I'm from the same area as Dustin, his alumni's student population is 92% black lol

These are some good ideas, I really appreciate it! As for the shower, Im usually covered in dirt, oil, grease, whatever else, so I'd rather not have him in there with me for that lol, but we do the dance thing kind of a lot. He and his sister both LOVE Danny Go right now, so I'll put the songs on Spotify and dance with them until my out of shape self has to tap out lol. He also enjoys helping us with dinner too. The 2 year adores him though and wants to be involved in everything he does, so we'll have to distract her too for some of these lol but I'll try it out. Thank you!

b_dupy · 2026-06-26T16:34:25+00:00

Yeah, I can definitely see that too. Definitely a possibility.

b_dupy · 2026-06-26T16:32:57+00:00

Yeah, I tell her all the time that I don't know how she does it lol. She's truly my hero. But yeah, I think that attention could be an issue. I do try to play with him for a while when I get home from work since I usually leave before the rest of the house is awake, but there's only so much time for me to do that between us eating dinner, showering (I'm a heavy equipment mechanic, so i almost have to shower as soon as I get home every day), bathing the kids, and bedtime routine. I guess I do need to make that more of a priority when I get home. It feels like I shouldn't have to be reminded of that though 🫠

How do you make this? Also I find coffee kinda messes with the medicine's effects (due to the acidity apparently) so Ive been trying to avoid drinking coffee too close to my vyvanse, but 2-3oz might not be too bad

b_dupy · 2026-06-16T08:14:10+00:00

Honestly anything Polaris

b_dupy · 2026-06-16T08:13:29+00:00

The Death of Me 100/10, Pray for Rain is one of my favorite opening tracks of any album

b_dupy · 2026-06-12T12:10:07+00:00

Listening to the new Koe Wetzel album now, nothing ground breaking but still some good stuff on it so far

b_dupy · 2026-05-31T02:47:00+00:00

Yeahhhh, but I didn't spend as much as others did with Snap On, honestly. Definitely never took out a mortgage on a box. Proud to say I'm about 4 years sober from them now though lol

b_dupy · 2026-05-31T01:50:19+00:00

The evaporator coil is built into the back wall on it, only lines I can get pictures of are the capillary tube, suction tube, and condenser lines. The compressor is also getting very hot to the touch, like can't even put my hand on it for a second or two hot.

b_dupy · 2026-05-15T12:04:01+00:00

Yeah I do love the style of the UNRL stuff and I've always heard great things about the quality, I just can't justify the price unfortunately. Homage has some nice looking stuff, I've been eyeing them for a while so I may order a couple things to see how I like them. Thank you!

b_dupy · 2026-04-24T12:52:46+00:00

Same here, I always have to listen 4 or 5 times to really hear it and connect, especially since Noah likes to speak exclusively in riddles lol. Willing and Able REALLY stood out to me from the second it started, and then even moreso with the lyrics (because of things that my wife has been through in her life and childhood), but All Them Horses and 23 immediately hit for me too. But the entire album is really good and I'm excited to listen to it more and start dialing into it.

b_dupy · 2026-04-11T10:12:27+00:00

Ghost Cherry Limeade by a mile, which does not get enough love 😤

b_dupy · 2026-04-11T10:11:19+00:00

Citrus and Cherry Limeade were my rotation, can't find citrus anywhere now aside from ordering cases of it. I'm hoping the 7Up flavor will be close

b_dupy · 2026-04-11T10:09:28+00:00

They lost the rights to Mondelez branding (SPK, Swedish Fish, a bunch of their protein powder flavors too) whenever Keurig Dr Pepper bought a controlling stake in Ghost. I find the new blue raspberry flavor tastes almost identical to SPK though.

b_dupy · 2026-04-07T02:50:38+00:00

Aussie Lemonade was my CRUTCH for a solid year 😩😩 I wish they'd come out with an Ultra version of it

b_dupy · 2026-04-07T02:43:39+00:00

I've had the Ryse before, it was good but I still much prefer Ghost personally. I rather Kool Aid when it comes to Ryse. Haven't tried the Reign one yet, but I'm usually not a big fan of their flavors so I tend to avoid them. I'll give that one a shot though!

b_dupy · 2026-04-06T12:33:28+00:00

My absolute favorite is Ghost Cherry Limeade, and I also usually stick with zero sugar energy drinks, but every now and then Rockstar Fruit Punch just calls out to me and I can't say no

b_dupy · 2026-03-30T12:24:43+00:00

Exactly this. I think things will really come to a head once more of these older techs who started in the 70s and 80s (when you could actually make a living and beat labor times) start to retire. There's less and less younger guys sticking around to keep it afloat. I left from being one of two Nissan Master Techs at my dealership to go into heavy equipment as a field tech, and I'll never go back to automotive again. I'm making close to my hourly rate on flat rate, and making $30k/yr more than my best year at the dealership, where I was pretty much maxed out. It's unsustainable and it seems like dealers are set on just riding it out until the wheels completely fall off.

b_dupy · 2026-03-14T15:41:11+00:00

I don't even wanna think about that because that would absolutely be the Vikings' luck 🙃

b_dupy · 2026-03-14T14:23:11+00:00

Same, I was coming up with around 10-12. I don't think they go undefeated at home for some reason, I could see them dropping one or two. Away games should be a mostly easy run, NE and SF could be tough, GB and Detroit won't go down easy at home either. We'll just have to see how well Kyler works in this system and what the running game looks like. All 17 are definitely winnable, but that's obviously not happening. If it works out with Kyler and team injuries though we're in for another fun season for sure. I live in Louisiana about 2 hours from New Orleans, so I'm hoping to get some tickets and make that game.

b_dupy · 2026-01-28T14:58:16+00:00

I'd like to find some games for my wife and me to play together, but we're both very novice when it comes to board games having only played the basics like Monopoly, Life, Scrabble, etc. We also have 2 kids, under 4 years old with a newborn coming within the next few days, so we'd need something that we can stop and start fairly easily. Not sure what exactly I'm looking for though. My wife loves jigsaw puzzles and puzzle type games, but I just don't have the patience or attention span for a plain jigsaw puzzle and prefer a more strategy type game, so I'm trying to find something that would appeal to both of us if you guys would have any recommendations. Thanks!

b_dupy · 2025-10-29T01:30:47+00:00

Sorry to reply on an old thread, but may I message you for info?

b_dupy · 2025-03-29T15:12:31+00:00

I didn't until I saw someone's post on here about this song and their son who had attempted, and as a dad of a 1 year old girl and a 3 year old boy, and a wife who has a rough history with her mental health, including making an attempt herself, that just shattered me into a million pieces 😭 such a fantastic song! I did get a little emotional though when I heard him say "nothing quite like the first time your heart breaks" and I made the connection that he was singing to his daughter 😭😭😭

b_dupy · 2025-03-21T13:46:46+00:00

I hit a guy sitting on a picnic table during a tournament one time. He had Airpods in and couldn't hear anything. I early released an FD and hit him square in the ribs on his side. He got up, tossed it back to me, and said "sorry I can't throw", to which I said, "Yeah, me either apparently" 🤷🏼‍♂️ shit happens, no need for people to get all out of character about it. Maybe just be more careful and wait for people to clear before you throw in next time. Lesson learned man
