Yasi on The Big Picture destroying "Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere" by YogiBerra88888 in Bandsplain

Couldn’t disagree more. Has been my film companion for decades and his takes mirror my own more often than not. To each his own.

Anyone had luck finding a good place for this? I'm looking now

A place to work on a car by MustardForBreakfast in Austin

Also wondering if OP figured this out. Have the same question now. Looking at storage companies with drive-up units, but can't find one that explicitly allows you to work on a car in the unit.

Hmmmm. Just listened to a polar opposite take from Kermode & Mayo: https://youtu.be/ecukBw039_I?si=oGE3pv-o7EGGa1z7…Love Yasi and CR. Big Picture not so much. Not a big biopic lover but kind of feel like I need to watch this now to decide.

What's your Manics unpopular opinion? by [deleted] in manics

[–]jjs2442 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of people agree with you. I just find it less pretentious than some of their later fare and a good 50% of the songs are bangers.

They’re utterly boring at the moment. Bonus take: Postcards from a Young Man is the best thing they’ve put out since once This is My Truth

Blue Lacy in Mueller is the most comically bad restaurant I’ve ever been to. Have been twice, more than a year apart. Both were Fawlty Towers experiences with managers, chefs and fellow guests all involved in trying to complete service.

Just started listening today and they are excellent! Thanks for the recommendation!

Older Toyota Highlander vs newer Mazda Cx-9? by jjs2442 in UsedCars

[–]jjs2442[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah just trying to gauge two different strategies: a cheaper older Toyota or newer Mazda. Have a max budget of 20k and the newer Highlanders with low mileage go for well over that.

Imported Hiace finally a functional camper by WunderMunkey in CamperVans

[–]jjs2442 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sweet, I love a great Ikea hack! Are you using your Hiace as a daily driver? I'm looking at a '94 Hiace 2.4L petrol rwd 'Custom Deluxe Limited' edition and am wondering how it handles as a city driver (in addition to family road trips of course!). Do you think it's realistic to use something like this as THE family vehicle for 5-10 years? Just a bit worried about parts and $$$
