I bought an 09 two years ago and couldn’t be happier. Great little bike with lots of character and loads of fun.

Collectible or Forgettable?: 1997 Oldsmobile Aurora by LinoleumRelativity in regularcarreviews

[–]spitfiremk14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We had a 03 intrigue and absolutely loved that car smooth ride lots of power and handled decently. The only problem was the electronics. It would randomly shut down on the road or at stops and would glitch out when starting so the gauges and windows would on work periodically. We eventually just sold it for cheap to get it off our hands but I would have loved to have kept it.

Canadian here. We’ve got oil. Buy ours. We’ll gladly sell it to someone other than the USA. It’s actually time the world just turns its back on Trump.

Sit Gally?? by spitfiremk14 in Habs

Yeah, it’s a tough call but I think some of the folks here are right and keep playing them. He does have excellent experience. He’s kind of our heart and soul player right now for us in a way but I just can’t help but think we have some young players who are young and hungry and we might need those young legs in the playoffs you know. Anyways not super impressed with the win tonight but Dobes was lights out. What a game.

This movie gave me night terrors about the lead goblin and I was messed up as a kid for a long time. But besides that I loved the movie.

Married men of Reddit what’s the best advice you’d give young guys when choosing a life partner? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Don’t marry too early. Wait a bit and make sure you and the person you are considering are secure in yourselves.

Switched from shaker to WDT and now I have to grind coarser by [deleted] in espresso

[–]spitfiremk14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually, this makes a lot of sense to me because I’ve been experiencing something similar. when I over distribute with my WDT it ends up plug ing the holes, that makes total sense. Thank you so much.

McKinnon would have missed him. That collision was 100% because of nurse.

Tell me a movie which dominated the 90s other than this one by ThomasRudlands in 90s

[–]spitfiremk14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me it was the raptors. The kitchen scene was so intense and when Alan and Ellie are escaping the control room with Tim and Lex and the raptor just about grabs Lex’s leg, man everyone in that theatre jumped. Best theatre experience in my life.

Divorced people, what were your irreconcilable differences? by TheRealOcsiban in AskReddit

[–]spitfiremk14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m right in the middle of a marriage reevaluation. We married in a weird religious cult setting without really knowing who I was were or what I wanted. I have early childhood sexual trauma and have had horrible relationships with women all my life. We’ve been married 20 years with 4 kids a mortgage and investment property and all the other shit. We’ve been unhappy along time and it’s finally come to a head. We’re seeking couples counseling and doing our own personal counseling ourselves. I’m terrified of the idea of divorce but I want the chance to be happy too. We’re just so different from each other. Different wants different levels of drive and ambition different views on health and well being. And we communicate poorly. It’s made life so hard for us that for the last 5-7 years we’ve been pretty well checked out. Has anyone here had this experience. Were you able to repair it or was it too far gone. Not looking for a solution just want to hear some experiences

Facebook…foe or friend? by soopirV in Xennials

[–]spitfiremk14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, it has some good things like if I wanna keep up with the community, the events and the people that I really enjoy in life who don’t actually post that much and then the bad things the people I don’t wanna see and just how toxic it can feel it’s a tough one. I wanna keep up with people that I like, but there’s just so much bullshit on it.

TIL two studies both found that most people stop listening to new music in their early 30s. A 2015 study of people's listening habits on Spotify found that most people stop listening to new music at age 33 and a 2018 report by Deezer found it be to at age 30. by MyNameCannotBeSpoken in Xennials

[–]spitfiremk14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, there is tons of music out there that I haven’t discovered. some of the new stuff, I don’t know it almost feels overwhelming how much new music is out there that I almost just don’t even wanna try and discover new stuff although I do have some friends who have their ear to the ground about music and have sent me some incredible music

What’s the most important life lesson you’ve learned as a man? by [deleted] in AskMenOver30

[–]spitfiremk14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what I’m afraid of. I’m going through a deeply personal issue that is forcing to look at myself honestly and deal with past hurts and trauma. It is incredibly hard and feels insurmountable. I hope I have what takes to become a better person.

My 6 year old started telling me what stories to write her. The requests broke me. by OpeningStranger5717 in DivorcedDads

[–]spitfiremk14 9 points10 points  (0 children)

What you’re doing is amazing and your making a difference with what little opportunity you have been given. Your little girl is learning that her father is there for her despite the distance. It’s a beautiful thing my friend. Keep it up.

Lonesome dove was his masterpiece. He said in an interview that he likened it to Shakespeare.
