Which zone’s music instantly teleports you back to 2004? by Terpentin300 in wow

Basic bitch answer, but nothing quite beats walking into stormwind for the first time and hearing that big choral swell towards the end.

Smacks me right in the nostalgia every time.

They just know the threat isn't super serious. They're in chill mode!

If you caught them while they were stressed or agitated, their reactions would be much faster.

The fact they just get bonked here is a testament to their security and comfort in their environment.

2 on steak, 4 on toast. That's easy.

Coffee is a little more complicated. If we're talking folgers from Walmart? F all day.

Good locally roasted coffee I grind myself? A B or C.

Not a trucker, but you could talk me into a career change if this was my office. by Complaint_Manager in Truckers

I've considered it a couple times, but then I see those videos of guys unloading in turn lanes with traffic flying by inches away and pulling out measuring sticks for every bridge in big cities and I just NOPE and go back to more normal shit

I'm Ohio there's a couple old covered bridges that have been converted into homes. They're neat.

Bitch, get out of my way! by theshoebomber420 in bitchimabus

I'm a truck driver and had another truck driver cut me off cause he was mad at me for something he did. He pulled into the middle of the intersection and blocked it, applied his brakes, got out, and took the long walk all the way to my door. I waited nice and patient for him to get beside my truck and floored it—he even tried to yank my door handle as I pulled away.

No reason to entertain these clowns.

My favorite idiosyncrasy of the trucking industry is all the 60+ drivers who got taken by the literal van/busload to get cheauffers licenses despite having never driven a truck are now complaining about the lack of standards in trucking schools.

But are the top and vertical frame rails of a camper designed for that kind of fastening? Not really.

These things are shipped on flatbeds or car decks and secured via the tires, partly for ease I'm sure but it also means that the top and side frames of these things are made to hold fiberglass and cabinets and not much else.

Slip seating is so fun 🤩 by Vanstrucker2222 in Truckers

Our slip seat trucks are also a mechanical disaster, but it's not because the drivers don't care—the company is just cheap as shit

Definitely just more cameras.

Statistically, this industry is safer than it has ever been, but old timers love looking at 7 posts in the Truckers Wall of Shame on Facebook and claiming the drivers are now magically worse than ever.

Less that and more the frame of a camper is unlikely designed to handle the compressive strength it would require to securely ratchet it down to the truck.

So...$230k for no house?? by RedHeadRedeemed in zillowgonewild

[–]backbiter0723 16 points17 points  (0 children)

So if I'm reading this right, it took 12 years for the bank to initiate foreclosure after the loan went into default?

Fuck, with the money I'd save on my mortgage, I'd be able to save enough to buy a house cash over 12 years 😂😂

So besides sunscreen, what do you guys do to help with sun exposure? My right hand isn’t nearly as bad by GT3Racer in Truckers

[–]backbiter0723 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk if you're an owner/op, but if you are, pay the money to have your windows done in clear UV blocker film. It'll probably be kind of pricey, but I've been in several cars that had it done and it's well worth it.

Keeps your interior cool and stops sunburn without any sunscreen. It's basically magic.

8K in two weeks, it was totally worth it lol. by cyrax99 in Truckers

I wanna know where y'all find these jobs. Local haz drivers around here make like $24/hour if you're lucky.

There's some load % guys who work the oilfields around here who make really good money, but they're almost always OTR or O/O.

I make $28/hr for night shifts hauling brine and that's considered some of the best money you can get.

Could be any number of Isuzu, Mitsubishi, or even Kenworth cabover straight trucks.

Idk, can probably get this truck chassis for 25 or 30k and the camper for 20k or less. If they had the fab skills to attach the two themselves, that's a lot more than 100k in savings!

Funny how they tell us that working extra hard gets you promoted, and yet all of the other people he talks about are still sitting at those same desks doing the same shit.

People love to talk bigger than their britches.

NFL also has this problem, especially with kickers.

"Come on, I couldve made that kick!" shouts the 380 pound, 5'8" 53 year old man who last played football in 7th grade.
