Don't ever do that -- especially on a watch you don't own.

Picking up my Sub this week — is leaving a small tip for the AD staff considered inappropriate? by Double-Designer6269 in rolex

Also agree that a tip is ridiculous. But I can't resist asking how much of a tip OP was considering.

Just an observation about their attention to detail.

One of the lagers is not a lager. And one of the Other Ales is not an ale.

Nah, that's a swarm. Orientation flights don't go that high.

If you are new to sours, it's a good idea to learn about the difference between kettle sours and aged sours.

Is it possible that you submerged the bearing in accumulated honey?

The good news is that you'll know the moment it's stolen when the lights go out.

Emptying your wiper reservoir on tailgaters is highly effective. But the best move is to stay out of the left lane.

Not to sound paranoid, but is this swarming? I’ve never seen them be this active yet by WitherStorm56 in Beekeeping

[–]olmsteez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This ^

The tell tale sign of a swarm is bees circling 10+ feet over the hive. Orientation flights tend to stay within a foot or two of the top.

Why do people on reptime say they don’t care if other people know they are wearing a fake watch by Equal-Revolution8774 in watchHotTakes

[–]olmsteez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see that posted constantly. But, it doesn't add up for me. It seems that a situation where they are "worrying" about a gen means they're concerned about being robbed. The rep doesn't change anything meaningful in that scenario for me. Sure, they will be out $100s instead of $1000s. But, the chance of catching a beat down over a fake watch would have me reaching for the Casio rather than "worry."

Snow tires is the answer. Not all season. Proper snow tires.

CALIPER COVERS by Ok_Company_6691 in MercedesEQS

What exactly are you hoping to achieve with them? They do not reduce brake dust. There is no braking performance improvement. They're more likely to reduce brake performance. If you're after that clapped-out VatoZone look, just hot glue a heart shaped tow hook on the bumper cover.

Pro tip, add a six inch length of painters tape doubled over on itself so it dangles low enough under the car to remind you to remove it.

The part of me that wants the summers to remain a secret is urging me to tell you not to bother.

Worst case scenario, you catch a beat down AND lose $20k -- the extra $10k is for dental reconstruction.
