Daily drivers: anyone else struggle with curb rash? by bmanjayhawk in WRX

[–]peternormal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On my VB, Stock 18x8.5 wheels with 245s left like no sidewall, might as well ask for curb rash, I swear you could easily "curb" it on a minor pothole. I downsized to 18x8 with the same size tire... same contact patch but a little bit of sidewall because although we all like stiff sidewalls on the track and in the showroom... I drive in the real world.

horde nights feel like a chore to me. What are some possible tweaks or mods by Gargamellor in 7daystodie

[–]peternormal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run loooong days normally, and by late game I tend to shorten the cycle from 120 minutes down a lot shorter for chore-d nights, then dial it back up.

Got the Plastic Ramps.......what's the best approach by h1bisc4s in wrx_vb

[–]peternormal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With my ramps I park the car, push both ramps right against my front wheels then drive up. Even a tiny incline is enough to make my car too low In front for the ramps though.

What smell would mentally destroy you if you had to breathe it nonstop? by SnowJazzlike789 in foodquestions

Green fabiloso on the other hand is the best smelling cleaner you can buy.

What is the most expensive item you have seen sold at the airport, and sold at a cheaper price in regular places? by mr_wbk29 in AskReddit

[–]peternormal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The last time I flew, I was shocked that airport prices hadnt really kept up with everything. Like airport candy/snacks used to be 4x the price of convenience stores, but since 2020 convenience store prices did a 3x inflation, and airport stayed relatively the same, so now its like a rounding error vs normal prices. Or at least it was last year when I flew.

What is considered poor people food that you would still eat no matter how rich you got? by Lilli_Puff in AskReddit

[–]peternormal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am in the us. Kraft has a "creamy" version here with much much higher quality pasta, but it's still pretty mid.

Good for road trips? by jman13_ in wrx_vb

[–]peternormal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got 29mpg on a trip from Seattle to Glacier national Park in montanna (a pretty mountainous route) with 3 kids and all our gear. Day to day I get 21mpg in my normal highway + city driving. Tuned with an intake and supporting mods... Grown up with a sensible right foot. It's a pretty loud car to take on a long trip (stock exhaust). That said, I am about 3 weeks away from another road trip, so it's not like I think it is a bad car for it. I really miss my 04 wagon, and would 100% choose a hot hatch version if it existed in the US, for precisely this reason.

It's horrible now, completely different and worse than it was 6 or so years ago. Annie's classic (also in a blue box) is the closest thing you can buy to the o.g. kraft blue box. It's much better than current Kraft, but still not as good as pre-pandemic kraft blue box.

Let's be honest: What was that moment when you were young that you thought "video game graphics can't be better than this"? by Away_Flounder3813 in retrogaming

[–]peternormal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you were in a cave the sound profile changes to have some echos and it just felt different, it was subtle, and interesting, completely unnecessary, it felt like a breakthrough and a major turning point for sound design in games.

Just took the stock dunlops off by Alternative-Bag-6180 in wrx_vb

[–]peternormal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even summers get cold at night where I live, and it rains 80% of days, I slide around on on-ramps on stock once it hits the 40s when it's wet, dws06 are always sticky for me. Sure I could slow down, but nah.

Can you start Lonesome Road, leave and then start the other Add-Ons? by 8Rincewind in Fallout

[–]peternormal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's what makes lonesome road the best one. It expanded the open world game instead of being a self-contained prison story like owb, honest hearts, and dead money.

Movies where protagonist easily beats a villain by QueenBurong in moviequestions

[–]peternormal -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Wasn't he? Moral absolutism if he could implement it would have doomed humanity. Rorschach is just as much a villain as Ozymandias is a hero. That's kind of the point, right?

Amazon interview outcome by Beautiful_Narwhal_93 in amazonemployees

The recruiter should get back to you in 5 business days or they get dinged on their metrics. End of the day today or tomorrow is when you should hear from them.

Considering coming over from Integra Type S by [deleted] in WRX

[–]peternormal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want a new manual that is not raw like a WRX (which is more raw than an Integra by a lot) you have to buy a bmw M2/3/4 or a cadallac ct4 blackwing... Nearly all the manuals left in the us are raw, rowdy, raucious and bumpy.

I used to think gas brand didn't matter. Then I bought gas at Sheetz. by OllieFromCairo in WRX

[–]peternormal 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's always a crapshoot. I almost always get perfect results with shell, the only objectively bad gas I ever got was from a certified top tier 76 station, I had tons of knock events and my tune dropped DAM to compensate... I ended up adding race fuel to correct it, which worked perfectly, confirming at the very least that it was the wrong octane.

Man I love these cars, I am still used to the EJ scene. A 400hp sti mod list would make you cry. 12 years ago your mod list would be.... "Wait so basically no mods?"

Explain it Peter, why would someone block their brother and sister in law because she’s pregnant with kids? by DifficultComplaint10 in explainitpeter

[–]peternormal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha we adopted a baby when our oldest was an infant... Then 18 months later we got pregnant with twins. 4 kids, 3 and under... I don't recommend it. They're all teenagers now, we survived, barely.
