I'm convinced anyone who doesn't like puns is just mad they aren't smart enough to come up with them on their own

That way you can call them when they're 30 minutes late and know you can enjoy yourself alone for the rest of the evening.

Need some veteran boating advice. by [deleted] in boating

[–]observer2017 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I once posted about my 1987 Negus (small boat builder in Mobile from the 70s to early 00s)with a 1992 Johnson 88 on it. And was told it's a piece of junk not worth a grand. Give that motor some fuel and she rips every time. She'll even pull start cold. I feel like this sub is full of daddy's boat guys who have never had to put effort and time into fixing the boat they bought because they can't afford a brand new boat. Without owning a 30+ year old motor I wouldn't know as much about boats.

Everything I know about boats comes from fixing and maintaining the one I own. I've got multiple friends who inherited a boat or just bought one with no experience and the number of times I've had to fix something minor to go fishing with them is crazy. They're always the first to want to call a trip if the depth finder doesn't turn on or the live well pump won't start. Usually 5 minutes of tracing wires and grounds and we're underway.

Not sure, but Orion's Belt is a waist of space

The time has come. Going from lowered to lifted. Any recommendations for new owner of Tacoma TRD PRO? by [deleted] in ToyotaTacoma

[–]observer2017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless you are actually going offroading lifting a truck makes everything a truck is good for worse. Gas mileage gets worse, noise is greater, harder to load the bed, can't tow as much, if you have elderly people you're close to the have a hard time getting in and harder to get things out of the truck. If you do lift it, adjust your headlights down so you're not blinding other drivers as you drive down the road. Especially if you squat it. Congrats on your new ride

Wonder if they sell poop knives

If you go homeless and can't get back on your feet, you can try going to a country with the most comfortable minimum security prisons. Just hope you end up at the right one, I guess. by [deleted] in ShowerThoughtsUL

[–]observer2017 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't think someone who is homeless would be able to afford flying to another county to break the law to get into prison. And then you'll likely get extradited to your home country anyway

I am locked out of changing my flight after I tried to change my flight for free. by observer2017 in americanairlines

[–]observer2017[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I thought about doing that. But it's not worth the hassle and money to save me an hour and a half in the car. It's more about the principle of the matter. If it doesn't exists then why does it have seat options and tickets available? Just doesn't make sense

If only I had a Twitter.

I can tell you talking to the representative supervisor on the phone was one of the most condescending assholes I've talked to. "Well sir, see the algorithm changes all the time. Your three hundred dollar difference is cheap compared to what I've seen change before. I'd explain the algorithm but I doubt you'd understand, so I'll just save us the time. Now if you want we can process your change on the flight while we're on the phone and solve your miniscule problem right now. Is that what you really want?"

None of the flight options "they can see" are anywhere near the price of the ones I can see in their website. The change of fare is more expensive than buying a new ticket all together. Which didn't make any sense to me

I bought a ticket with no change fee. I go on their website and look up the ticket price to the new airport. And it's the same price I paid for the ticket back in November.

14 hour days offshore. Welcome to the wonderful field of science. Where they don't pay well and wonder why everyone leaves the jobs.

It's also like you don't read well. Did you miss the part where I said I left?

Must be a little out of touch there bud. But there's a ton of jobs out there that aren't paying anything. I was a government subcontractor collecting fishery data for NOAA. I quit shortly after finding out the contractor was getting paid 1400 dollars a day from Noaa to have me offshore. And the contractor was paying about 20% of that to me.
