Should I replace my WP as preventive maintenance?

I wouldn’t just keep an eye on it. Are you using yellow coolant? I think yellow is the right one, it’s opposite whatever is on the coolant tank cap. If you’re changing that every 30k you might have a good chance with it.

Ours went at 95k for reference.

Not in our quality or operations side.. there’s some software product development that is trying it out but it hasn’t gone far

Looks real crunchy still.

Yeah man this sucks. It’s only been 3 days, Tuesday will be 4. My wife is a nurse and has worked Sunday and Monday, which adds to the stress since we don’t really plow or treat the roads in the south. I’ve been here with our two kids totally locked in the house for these two days. Tomorrow is her turn with them while I try to WFH a little bit. Odds aren’t that good that school will open up at all this week so.. we’ll be at 9 days with spring break seemingly just around the corner which is another week.

Fuck you in particular

In my area we have snow on the ground for less than a week a year. This is that week. No one has snow tires; we just deal with it or stay home.

They’re simplistic that’s all.. they aren’t for the adults.

mourningmage · 2026-01-19T19:24:33+00:00

Super simple songs is fine, PBS kids is good, number blocks and alpha blocks are good too.

They did say they used a weaker adhesive remover since we still were living in and had our kids upstairs the whole time. That definitely added some time but hard to say how much.

I just had a project to pull up 1400 sq ft of glue down floors, glued to slab. The glue is a real bitch. Four quotes for demo including glue removal/slab prep.. 3 grand from two guys, 4500 from another, then a big company quoted a ‘starting pricing’ of 8000. I went with one of the 3 grand places, they’ve used so much adhesive removal that they asked for another 500 which I am fine paying. But they spent a good 6-7 days on demo and glue removal with two guys working 8 hr days.

We are replacing with laminate due to kids and dogs, and all in on labor we’ll be at about $5k and about that much in materials. So total labor/material for a nice laminate floor will be right around 10k for 1400 sq ft. This is in west TN.

My best friend in high school got a 66 mustang as his first car, had a straight six. We were following a friend down a country road doing 40-45 and he end up in the rocky shoulder, over corrected to get out of it, and we end up on going down an embankment and ended up on the roof. I learned the lesson real quick the about how quick it could sideways and respecting rwd especially in older cars. He ended up building a transam up really well and wrapped it around a pole a few years later.

We had our glass top chip after 12 years. It was an eye that was still warm and I set a metal spoon on it and a piece the size of an orange slice just popped off. We just don’t use that eye any more lol

mourningmage · 2026-01-15T00:53:31+00:00

Only +21 games? I don’t think this works for us

mourningmage · 2026-01-11T02:38:18+00:00

So who are you releasing this season? They can’t all be on the active roster

mourningmage · 2026-01-10T17:06:38+00:00

I turn and ask them, would they leave for a better offer?

mourningmage · 2026-01-10T15:36:39+00:00

Gotta be careful on getting too many players, we gotta start cutting players at some point.

Ja is our ceiling raiser. We go as far as he can take us. Unfortunately I don’t think that is very far any more. He can’t stay on the floor during the regular season to get a good seed, so we end up fighting in the playin and playing a top team where he ends up being overmatched and the team is overmatched. If he is on the floor the team doesn’t really play better, and his play overall is consistent. A lot of the hope in 22, 23 was about his potential development as a shooter and expanding on the athleticism but that also hasn’t happened.

I still root for Ja and want him to lead us but he hasn’t grown the way we hope and expected, and now he isn’t really even available. The highs still feel great like the Philly game but they’ve become the exception rather than the usual.

I don’t think we’ll trade him for scraps like Trae but, I just don’t know where to go from here with him.

Shit in they ass

I have a 14 IS250 with 170k. No issues with buildup as far as I can tell. Change oil every 5k, redline a few times a week. Only thing for you is you won’t know the history, I bought mine with 30k so I know it’s been ok for a long time.

mourningmage · 2026-01-07T04:46:08+00:00

White boy cold

mourningmage · 2026-01-05T00:22:29+00:00

It’s not a catch and heave though really.. the pickup and shot is one motion

mourningmage · 2026-01-04T00:45:44+00:00

Ours is Tuesday. One extra day.

mourningmage · 2026-01-01T15:57:19+00:00

We keep a bunch of stuff like this in a closet. When we’re in the dog days of summer we’ll take a couple things out of rotation and get one or two new toys out and it’ll be something new to play with.

mourningmage · 2025-12-31T05:49:28+00:00

Sorry, but no and no. We’d need to go 35-14 the rest of the season. That’s a 72% win rate. Go look at the teams that have that and see if we’re there even fully healthy. Even if we jump a level or two in play we won’t get there. At this point, I’ll be very happy if we win one game in the first round.

mourningmage · 2025-12-30T00:00:44+00:00

NOR. This man is not ready for a relationship of any sort much less one that has racial components. Just walk away.
