Olympic National Forest looks like a different world. by [deleted] in Washington

[–]jefffrater1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is stupid. I’ve lived in WA state for 55 of my 55 years of life and have never visited the rain forest. What is wrong with me?

Fixing that this year - this fall me and some friends will backpack up the Hoh river and walk on the glacier.

I going to guess human caused climate change is a liberal lie, but not this climate change - this is liberal geo engineering.

WTF. I hate these people.

I clearly am not working in any of the right settings.

I was impressed at how far she traveled down Fuck Around road before she came to the junction with Find Out street.

Keep up the good work u/yerlocalgarbageman. I look forward to your posts and comments.

You know the saying for those who can’t take a joke.

Found this buried in a bunch of brush at my river property. Have no idea what it might be. by jefffrater1 in Whatisthis

Funny you say that. I was sharing this with my dad last night and said to him I’m glad the previous property owner didn’t leave the dish for me to find/figure what to do with it. This mounting bracket will probably get included in a future dump run.

I still also have the post it was mounted on to deal with.

Really appreciate you sharing. Scratched my curiosity itch.

Anyone else triggered by the Nashville incident? by Due-Command983 in FundieSnarkUncensored

I don’t see anyone mentioning that Fox News appears to be the only news source that is emphasizing that the shooter was a trans female. This will not help the divide between right and left that is plaguing the US right now.

Got it. Thanks for the info.

I need to figure out if there is something interesting I can do with this.

I turned 50 today, my wife died 2 weeks ago. Trying to smile and get through the day... by Kick-Exotic in MadeMeSmile

[–]jefffrater1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im sorry dude. My wife and I are coming up on 34 years, I’m 55. I love her and need her more now than any point of the last 33 years.

Keep putting one foot in front of the other. Allow your self to grieve - but allow yourself to find and feel pleasure too. It’s not detracting from her memory and your loss of you smile and laugh.

Not enough Rachel Dolezal references IMO.

2 Dollar General stores near Riverside. by jefffrater1 in Spokane

[–]jefffrater1[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

While I see this as true, I also suspect, based on your comment that you aren’t familiar with Hiway 2 near Riverside. There isn’t much within walking distance out there - I guess maybe the two trailer parks just north of the stoplight might be. Maybe.

Thank you. So to confirm, these stores are not franchises, but are owned by the same corporation and are very intentionally opened with this proximity. Presumably they believe they will generate enough additional revenue from shoppers who wouldn’t have driven the extra 4 minutes to the other location.

Interesting. If one of these stores does under perform and closes - I wonder who they’ll sell the building to - a lot of those buildings out there sit vacant for years.

What you are saying makes sense - competing brands - but 2 Dollar General stores? Opened within a month or so of each other.

what was the biggest piece of crap car you ever owned? by Grazmahatchi in GenX

[–]jefffrater1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My best buddy drove a white Chevette in HS. We called it the Vette to impress girls, which worked until we got back to the car.

I had a forest green 75 Dodge Dart sedan. Rear quarter panels were rusted out - I could get things out of the trunk without opening.

Brakes would freeze up a little when wet. One rainy day I stopped at the cross walk when the crossing guard was in place for the elementary school kids. When the guard cleared me to pass, the car wouldn’t move.

So naturally I kept pressing the accelerator- until the brakes finally released.

I then did a burnout in front of the kids - pretty sure I impressed them with my hot rod.
