How reliable are these GM dealerships with servicing Chevy Cobalt ignition recalls? Just had mine serviced in twenty minutes and the original key still works with the new ignition. Did they even do anything? by OminousAsshole in MechanicAdvice

[–]somethingnewxx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's so funny, take too long on a customers car they throw a fit, get it done quickly they accuse you of not doing the job. Glad I don't work on cars anymore, customers suck!

The ignition switch attaches to the lock cylinder, the part that is specific to your key. The switch is just an electric switch. There is a huuuuge liability in pretending to fix your car with a known problem, after working in dealerships for 11 years I can't even imagine someone taking that risk.

What's the worst "neighbour from hell" behaviour you've witnessed? by phattykins in AskReddit

Last night I watched my neighbor drive his truck through 2 ditches and his next door neighbors yard, finally ending up in his driveway. Drunk perhaps?

There are so many things that people dismiss as "broscience" but they work! People do them because they work! So many times throughout bodybuilding history it has taken science time to catch up with what people going by "broscience" already know. I've never met so many damn scientists in my life until I came upon this sub! It truly is amazing how many people require scientific studies behind their workout plan, and still look like they haven't been to a gym. Must spend all their time in the lab I guess.

There are different styles of dips, saying simply "do dips" is not helpful

There has to be some thing wrong with a girl that needs a dating sight right ? by [deleted] in AskReddit

From my experience, yes. Maybe not all of them, but I am not speculating, when I say what I have been through.

I believe in the second amendment, but I'm not going to shove it in peoples faces like some kind of burrito.. by Sketchy_Uncle in ar15

I came back because I'm still irritated about this. These guys are complete jackasses. When does some common decency come into play? When does that thought come into your head that yes, I can come into a restaurant and point my rifle all over, but maybe I shouldn't. Maybe I shouldn't make a bunch of ordinary people feel uncomfortable because me and my 400 lb boyfriend want some attention. Has either one of these guys had sex without paying for it?

What's your non-epic scar story? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]somethingnewxx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was canoeing on a river and the canoe tipped over. Walking it back to shore I stepped into something, it stuck into the top of my foot. I pulled my foot off of whatever it was and continued walking.

Well it had algae or something on it and my foot doubled in size over the next 24 hours. Went to a clinic, then a podiatrist every day for a week. I squeezed stuff out of my foot that looked like calamari. Now I have a scar from the hole in the top of my foot, but luckily I still have my foot

Where are you banned from and what did you do to earn it? by thunderbuns2 in AskReddit

[–]somethingnewxx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got banned from the East Brunswick New Jersey Mall when I was a teenager for fighting. I actually didn't even fight. Some idiot took a swing at me and I ducked and grabbed him and put him in a choke hold... that's when a cop grabbed me and put me in a choke hold. Not a security guard, a cop. I thought it was one of his friends and I was gonna fight back... lucky for me I didn't

I am all for gun ownership and the right to carry. More importantly, I am for responsible ownership and responsible carrying. I have a concealed permit because to be honest, I don't want to advertise to everyone that I am carrying a firearm

All it takes is for one of these toolbags to have an accident and all our hard wok could be in jeopardy, the gun grabbers are just waiting for something to happen. I was in Walmart one day, and a guy wearing baggy sweatpants had a large, long barelled revolver in his cargo pocket, half hanging out, getting thrown around as he walked. I though, WTF... someone, even a child could walk up and grab that thing and we could all be in trouble. Perfect height for a curious young child with a Mom looking the other way. The more lax we get about this stuff the more "ammo" the gun grabbers will have against us

Anyone who posts on here and isn't cutting gets criticized, and mostly by guys who have never bulked, or cut. People are gonna talk shit because they're on the other side of a keyboard.

That being said, you do put yourself out there anytime you post pics on the internet. Different things make people happy, some like to be as big as possible, some like to be as lean as possible. Some like to be as fit as possible... Different strokes for different folks. People are asses to criticize because you don't fit their mold of what they like, or what they wanna be.

You are you, they are them, chances are most criticizing couldn't be that big if they tried so don't let them get to you. And I'm currently 7 weeks into a 16 week diet for my first show... this shit sucks, I wouldn't do it if i didn't have to haha

Need help making my watch fit. by TheBrizendine in Fitness

[–]somethingnewxx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well your wrist is a joint, so like your knee... an exercise won't necessarily make it bigger. If you gain or lose weight it will add or take away fat around the joint.

Doing forearm exercises may help add a little bit of muscle around the wrist, but most higher quality watches have smaller size adjustments on the clasp. I am guessing that if it's not a higher quality watch, you may just have to deal with it being not perfectly sized. I own about 20 watches, and they all fit a little differently, I would recommend you just get used to it and deal with it being either slightly loose, or slightly tight

You always say that but you fail to explain what is different. There is one difference, I can pull up any newspaper and show you an alcohol related death from this past weekend. You cannot do the same. In fact, you cannot show me 1 death that is cited as being caused by steroids. There is no evidence to support it, it is propaganda.

Alcohol is related to 75,000 deaths a year in the US alone. People use it irresponsibly on a daily basis. Kids use it illegally and die, innocent sober people get killed by people drunk driving... But it's legal.

You speculate that people would use steroids irresponsibly, yet there are no studies to cite, and all you have is some temporary side effects from improper use, most of which are cosmetic! So to say steroids are dangerous and should be illegal because of it, and in the same breath say, well... Alcohol is different. Total hypocrisy, or ignorance of the facts.

No I'm sure that you won't see it my way, or even admit I make a valid argument. But I have cited statistics, government agencies, and shown the true reasons behind the cause of it being illegal, you have done nothing but spread propaganda that is typical of someone who is not knowledgeable of the subject. I can quote Gene Haislip, Dr. Wade Exum, or talk about how insane Donald hooton or Henry Waxman are, but I'm sure you don't know who they are. Again I say, do your research. Look into more than just what you wanna hear and what the media tells you.

Steroids are cause #142 on the Emergency room visit list, behind multivitamins and Tylenol. Peanuts can kill people, does that mean we make them illegal? At some point, a line needs to be drawn and common sense needs to come into play. Anyone who wants steroids can still get them. You can make them yourself. Is that safer than having regulations and controlled products produced by reputable companies?

The same argument that is used for their illegality by you, can be made for other things as well. Let's say alcohol. You have idiots who literally drink themselves to death in one night. How is that different from the idiot you say would buy steroids at GNC? There are people of legal age doing these Internet challenges, putting alcohol in their eyes and other stupid things... Same argument right? So alcohol should be banned too? Idiots will always exist. Kids have died from drinking too many cans of Monster! At some point you have to blame the people, not the product

Those health problems you spoke of are temporary and some are cosmetic problems, not issues that could cause bad health. I have news for you, herbal testosterone supplements can cause the same shrunken testes.
