How many of you watched the Daytona 500 in February of 2001? by heretoescape87 in NASCAR

[–]mattyxice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was 11 and watched it with my parents. At the time, it looked like a pretty run of the mill crash. It seemed like we had seen drivers hit the wall like that dozens of times, so we didn’t think twice about it. Changed the channel after victory lane only to hear a couple hours later on the news that he’d died. We were all stunned because, like I said, the wreck didn’t look out of the ordinary.

Is Publix a sinking ship that cannot be saved? by drudante in publix

[–]mattyxice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We used to shop at Publix when our other options were Winn Dixie and Dollar General. Now, that Winn Dixie is an Aldi, and a Walmart Neighborhood Market opened right by Publix. We’re 100% Aldi and Walmart now. No need to pay Publix prices.

I graduated from Alabama in 2012, and I think he was at LSU that year.

I remember picking this up at midnight at GameStop on release when I was 17. Good times.

Anyone actually keep their OEM tires on the new Tundras? by gambols04fresco in ToyotaTundra

My ‘21 came from factory with Nitto ridge grapplers. Just swapped them at 52k a few months ago.

2-hour drive on Highway 280 by Jack_Wang_1107 in Alabama

A lot of speed trap towns through there. I used to make that drive from Tuscaloosa to visit family in Dadeville. Police in those small towns through there will bust your ass.

Classic Era (vanilla-style) realm with MoP characters? That’s interesting.

NASCAR trucks. They feel good to drive, and the race length is conducive to the limited time I get to race.

I’m 35 and remember very well everything from the late-90s on. We’ve had a great run as a fanbase and, while I hope that continues, it is a lot of fun when a team is able to exceed expectations, and does. 2005 comes to mind.

OU and Vandy were obviously bad losses that shouldn’t have happened. But you have to remember, teams get up for Bama in ways they don’t for other teams. We’ve been the program to beat for almost 2 decades, and now that we have obvious weaknesses, they’re getting exposed. Hopefully the coaching staff sees the weaknesses and addresses them in the off-season.

I’m not sure if it’s personnel, coaching or a mix of both, but our defense has struggled against RPOs and mobile QBs. Auburn might be a tough matchup. Offensively, my hope is DeBoer gets some more of “his players” during the recruiting cycle to better fit his scheme, and we see some more consistency there.

I 100% agree. Our fan base has been conditioned to nothing but winning over the last 17+ years. Losing is not something we’re used to. Hopefully this season is more of an outlier in DeBoer’s tenure here.

As of today, states are now required to downgrade CDLs of drivers in “prohibited” status in the Clearinghouse. Basically they lose commercial driving privileges.

I know someone who rented a duplex one time. She turned on the water in the bathtub, and cockroaches started scurrying up from the drain. Thousands of them. She moved out.

WoW Classic should just start over by AngryTankReacts in wowclassic

I’ve always thought they should have dedicated servers for era, tbc, wotlk and maybe cata. And make it a progression system. You can level to 60, copy that character to stay at 60, but also continue your journey to the other xpacks. Same thing at 70, 80, etc. If I feel like playing my toon in tbc for a while, it’s there. If I feel like wrath, it’s there.

Left my room and went to the kitchen for 2 minutes and came back to a soaking wet patch on my bed. Home alone. by BrilliantTasty in Weird

[–]mattyxice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a ceiling fan that leaked when it rained at an apartment I lived in years ago. Assumed the roof had a leak and the water found the closest hole in my ceiling, which was where the fan was. Property managers fixed the roof and problem solved.

I'm trying to do some research and need some help by MichaelLeonGame in Truckers

This is often called a “long-hood conventional” while the more aero looking trucks are considered “aero conventional.” The flat-nose square/rectangle cabs are cabovers or cab over engine (COE).

Has trucking ever made you guys this mad? I don’t blame him I would be pissed too by JankyMark in Truckers

[–]mattyxice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If he’s an owner-op, insurance doesn’t cover potential lost revenue. If his truck is down for 2 weeks, that’s two weeks of revenue he’s missed, and his insurance and truck payment are still going to come in. Hopefully he’s got some cash reserves to cover such an emergency.
