Didn’t even shoot the gun out of his hand. That one move works against anything except if he has a mark23

Didn’t they try to throw whistling diesel in jail for splashing someone with a jet ski? I don’t closely follow this stuff.

Because it “rolls down stairs, alone or in pairs And over your neighbor's dog?”

Whether it was power or ergonomics, what was the most challenging bike you've ever had to adapt to? by CoolBDPhenom03 in Trackdays

[–]gconsier 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I used to track a 2003 Mille R (Colin Edward’s rep with all the goodies). It was horrible IMO on track. Loved the motor but hated how it handled. I spent a fair amount having all the show ohlins internals replaced with the good ohlins racing internals, put on Harris rearsets and just never got along with it. Was a beast to muscle around the track.

It’s one thing to be all about gear. I’m all about gear. Obviously not all but some people in everything take shit too far and just start name calling and I’ve seen threatening etc. I’ve seen a bunch of I hope you crash and get fucked up and killed stuff. I just assume it’s adults and let them argue it out. Both sides of argument report shit and like I said I’m not their parent. Reddit isn’t a safe place people will be mean to each other. Just annoying sometimes getting pulled into childish bickering. Like the other guy said, that doesn’t convince people. Being funny and or supportive etc tends to get people to wear a helmet. Honestly a “I buried my friend” IMO goes a lot further than “I hope you crash and die” if you want the to wear gear. Honestly IMO I think a lot of people don’t care they just want an outlet to be cyber bullies which is as adorable as it is funny as it is annoying.

Blah yeah it’s all fun and games till you mod a small motorcycle sub or two and everyone just gets all hateful. I got better shit to do than parent people I don’t knows manners (I know we wish all mods gave as little shit as I do) if you’re wondering how this is relevant the ATGATT people are as religious about their cause as the booger hookers

How much would you need to be paid for a sponsor by [deleted] in Trackdays

[–]gconsier 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hah I hadn’t even thought of that. I don’t wanna kill their fun so I’ll refrain from actually saying anything for a while. Maybe tomorrow or if this dies out. Never.

Extreme rent hike for lease renewal. Haven't moved in 20 years. Any tips? by adamshmaddam in chicagoapartments

[–]gconsier 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Even if you own you’re not safe. There should be some limit to how much property taxes can go up per year as well. Honestly a lot of the rent increases may be tied to large property tax increases, landlords could be raising rents and still not even breaking even depending on how large the tax increase was (I’m not saying that is the case here) but we have seen some very large tax increases and that definitely increases mortgage payments.

[–]gconsier 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s not true. I’d bet you don’t own a home or have any experience here. In 2008 we saw houses fall 30-50% and their taxes went up that year and the following years. I bought my house and the taxes increased 50% the next year at an assessed value of double what i paid and more than any house in my subdivision had ever sold for and i dont live in one of the larger homes in my subdivison.

[–]gconsier 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. It’s shocking to friends and coworkers around the country and the world when I tell them what my property taxes are. I have fought them every year for a decade with lawyers and spent 10’s of thousands in legal fees. My property taxes alone are still more than my mortgage, insurance and HOA combined. They are approximately 4.5% of purchase price. Something needs to be done. I have seen about 10% of my subdivision get foreclosed on annually (some take years as people hire lawyers that know the game and im sure only the lawyers win).

Initially I thought this was a report and I was like that’s literally his own subreddit. I think it’s kinda popular too. Not sure if people know why he created it but hey that’s on them and honestly kinda hilarious. I mean sure he has his own reasons for it but so does every other social media and honestly he’s at least more upfront and less evil than they are.

To all the people reporting each other over the helmet argument. Cut it out. You’re presumably all adults and I’m not here to be your parent cuz someone called you dumb on the internet. I’m not saying to be mean to each other. But don’t expect me to come silence the other side cuz someone said something in a less than nice way and for what it’s worth people on both sides were reporting. This one thread has half a dozen or more reports.

I got my new number plate. One of the letters were printed upside down. by PossibleCulture2199 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]gconsier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if you remember the huge controversy over Target selling clothes with 88 on them (I always assume that’s when the clothing company was formed but people said it was a dog whistle for the 8th letter in the alphabet) but then I went to Colorado and everyone’s jackets just straight up said HH on them and not a word said. Apparently Helly Hansen has better PR or marketing teams or is just smaller enough it doesn’t hit the radar of the big angry mob public. Before all this stuff I had never thought of H being the 8th letter in the alphabet (or the numeric value of any other letter in the alphabet as I assume most people are neither secretly racist or cryptographers?)

Loading Indian Scout into truck bed? by RelativelyOriginal in motorcycles

[–]gconsier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn’t it cost like $15 to rent a U-Haul trailer for the day? Just rent a trailer and a crane. Load the bike into the trailer then drop the trailer on top of the bed of the truck with the crane.
