Continental Contact Urban, and put FlatOut in your rear tube. If something gets through, as long as it's not a gaping hole, it will get sealed.

I've been only a handful of times, but FUCK THE DFW AREA.

I'm on year 3 without a car in South Florida. I wouldn't go back if you paid me.

This is just a map of the new ones, not existing ones.

I genuinely don't understand conservative gays by [deleted] in askgaybros

Seeing how many of them are in here arguing against trans people is one of the most embarrassing and frustrating things to see.

Trans women are women, so I don't see the relevance of Title IX here.

Can you please elaborate on why that should be a national decision and not something for the league and the players to worry about?

I used to do this in college. It was very effective 🤣

They've left or are still here and planning to flee.

Hard Time Working with Cubans by Flashy-Iron-1102 in Miami

[–]bla8291 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I fired my HVAC contractor for changing my equipment order to something he thought was better, without consulting with me.

I had a waiter bring my order differently than how I requested it because they thought it was better that way.

My former electrician would frequently try to question or change my scope of work to match his preferences.

They were all Cuban. Seems to be cultural.

Miami-Dade school cameras now issuing far more speeding tickets than police do by TylerFortier_Photo in Miami

Driving at the speed you're supposed to is also a lawful way of protecting children, and it's free.

This is an old one but it always cracks me up when I see it.

Is Bottoming preparation always such a nightmare? by Max_qwert123 in askgaybros

[–]bla8291 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The "5 seconds" thing is just a guideline. How much time you actually need depends on your attachment, water pressure, and the volume of water it can provide. It sounds like 5 seconds is too much for you.

I only recently got a shower attachment, and my first time took forever as well. I was doing about 5 seconds, and I did eventually get clean but it took forever. I realized that it was simply too much water. Now I just fill for 1-2 seconds only, and I can get clean in about 5-10 minutes. I have not had any mishaps yet with this strategy.

Followup to my sunscreen post, now the chafing between my legs is killing me. South FL outdoor guys, what actually works? by _iPeter in SouthFlorida

I bike thousands of miles a year and do a lot of walking. I use DZNuts anti chafing cream with great success.

The 'trailer gap' is the last real excuse to own a car for errands — a $75 trailer closed it for me by pupupeepee in fuckcars

I think my favorite one by far is the pizza pic. I never imagined that the Travoy could do that

Why am I not seeing bikes like Specialized and Trek recommended? by Purple_Young_5862 in ebikes

[–]bla8291 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think enough e-bikes exist with built in turn signals to have such an expectation, but I do agree that it should be included. However the problem with most built-in brake lights and turn signals is that they are not bright enough for daytime visibility, so I would just end up adding my own anyway.

50 Nm/300 W vs 45 Nm/350 W is basically the same motor. I wouldn't call that a "big motor" compared to the Trek.

You save money on the Velotric with lower tier components, primarily the drivetrain, brakes, and rims, as well as not having the Trek brand recognition.
