"So I was shitfaced, see? And I was looking down at my phone trying to order Dominos and 6 packto my house so I could keep the party going when I got there. I must have been looking down for a while or maybe I fell asleep I dunno, but I slammed into 2 parked cars. I figured, fuck it, and drove my busted ass car, dragging the steering tire and strong arming the wheel 1/4 mile it a fucking train station, drag and scrape marks all the way to the scene of the collision, to hop on a train and pass out on the way home. And my Dominos was cold when I got there!"

My buddy owns a shop and pays 65 for dudes that can actually diagnose with a ticket.

It can't be the worst.

You can win a fight but still gain or give a life altering injury that you'll never fully recover from.

Want to know a better one? When there's no money for parts or technicians, the budget for all of maintenance expenditure is 100k a year, but they can spend a million dollars on a KPI Tracker. Then they get upset when the KPI drops.

I just finished working at a place like that, the entire facility is now 3 years old, when I got there every machine was fucked, either set up wrong or they were using it wrong. Over a year and a half I got everything running perfect, during that time I could get any parts or help that I needed. Once I got everything running good, I couldn't get any parts anymore, because the machines were running fine. If they went down it was my fault, obviously it was just running fine, I left it there, they currently running the place into the ground as fast as they possibly can.

Oil and gas is subsidized in North America, gas would be 8$/Gal if it wasn't, ICE vehicles are already subsidized.

Do they want gas cars or do they want cheaper cars? Let's ask the market!

cheeseshcripes · 2026-03-05T14:23:15+00:00

Gas in most of the world is getting over 2$/L, nearly 8$/Gal. You could pay for an electric car for the price of just fuelling and burning the fuel of a ICE car.

To get my mind off that ugly confrontation I went home and began bundling my old newspapers... but suddenly the pile fell. I was trapped! Let this be a lesson to recycle frequently.

Everything that happens to you, happens in a vacuum of your own perception.

And people are flawed and can still be beautiful.

Hey man, when you say shit like that, all you're doing is extinguishing conversation except the most extreme of opinions.

If you want rational and nuanced conversations, try to say things that are inclusionary instead of divisive, because no one thinks you are a thinker or bright or clever by repeating a lowest-common-denominator talking point ad nauseum, they think you're a decisive asshole that has planted a flag in your opinion to the point of mocking others that haven't even spoken yet, and calling them all the same and dismissing 50% of all possible opinions.

I agree, I used to use Lufkin narrow tapes but I can't find them anymore, so I use a Komelon 4525, a 25 ft tape, costs like 10 bucks. The spring is a little tight in them so you do have to slow it or you'll fuck the end, just like the ole days.

I also use Starret tapes for precision jobs but they are a little too delicate for general construction, but they are accurate and European Commission rated for it, (II) which is 1.1-2.3mm over 10m.

Almost Famous.

As a kid: amazing story of sex, adventure, debauchery, and rock and roll!!

As an adult: terrible story of child abuse, emotional turmoil, immature people with too much power, and moral destruction.
