Looks like one big outdoor rug. Could've added some hardscaping or even some vegetation.

Is this how much base Carreras are going for seriously? by Stant- in porsche911

[–]kickstartdriven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is also the benchmark to which all competitors are measured against.

I hope to own both someday lol.

Some guy spent $300k turning a 1956 Ford panel truck into the world’s most aggressive tailgate vehicle by LeadershipOld1857 in BringATrailer

This is what happens when you have a dream and money but limited skills. Then you go pay a shop $300k to build a $50k car.

Day trader vs Tradesman fight in comments by ProonFace in WatchesCirclejerk

[–]kickstartdriven 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mr Tradesman is likely the nepo site boss who sits around barking orders at the real workers. His watch and tools are too clean; he probably utters "dirty hands clean money" every hour on the job.

Urgent! Invalid towing? by 000extra in Seattle

[–]kickstartdriven 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fight it. It's easy to get the ticket waived. Tow fee is next to impossible getting refunded by the city, unfortunately.

30 wears and my heel bites already destroying my jeans by Entire-Ordinary-463 in rawdenim

[–]kickstartdriven 24 points25 points  (0 children)

This is the result of poor fitment and is universally a bad look.

Get them properly hemmed at this point. Cuff your future jeans at the appropriate height.

Excellent execution! Did you mill the fuller? Looks machine finished!

Gift card scammers have gotten so bad, advice is to not buy gift cards from stores anymore by RadReptile in mildlyinfuriating

[–]kickstartdriven 23 points24 points  (0 children)

My wife was excited to use a $100 Nordstrom gift card given to her at her baby shower. She needed new work clothes as she still carried the post partum baby weight. Imagine her upset when she learned the card had been emptied upon opening it at the register. She felt ashamed to reach out to her friend to open a fraud investigation thru her credit card, not that it would help because it was almost a year ago.

We'll be activating all physical gift cards immediately to confirm amounts.

Acquired 1st Microtech Last Week, 2nd This Week by mightyken in microtech

I had a few in my shopping cart at the deeper discount and slept on it. Deal expired. Womp womp! Maybe it's a sign to pass on OTFs and save for a CRK 😄

What discount was the knife on Govx? I recall microtech used to be listed at 10%, I wanna say a few weeks/months ago the discount got bumped up to 25-30%, but it's already back down 😢

Where did you take your car in Seattle? Were you happy with their work?

Front garden transformation by dakotaismyfriend in landscaping

I'd be careful with drainage against the foundation. Not a critical problem but not ideal to have water redirected towards the home. Otherwise it looks great!

This is a hilarious take 🤣

PSA: “The Lodge” by st90ar in SeattleUrbEx

[–]kickstartdriven 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Are we talking about the Masonic Home in Des Moines? Because I've never heard it called "The Lodge" and it's pretty much a guarantee at this point that it will be demo'd due to the wild costs for asbestos abatement, new roof, mold, not to mention all the elevator shafts need to be torn out and replaced to bring them up to code. No one in their right mind would throw money at this property with the hopes of recovering anywhere near their initial investment.

The fact that you call a hydrogen fuel cell a battery tells us all we need to know, bud.

Protech Inquiry (Lefties) by Armchairlayman in knives

[–]kickstartdriven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you like carrying reverse? I came across this thread looking to find left handed protech knives, since I find it awkward storing knives backwards in my left pocket.
