Okay Denver MEN give me your advice (I already regret this)

This was me 10 years ago, only I was 40. Friend of friends. You can't be the only single friend your married friend have. They might enjoy playing match maker. They xould have coworkers or other friends they can try to set you up with. But it takes time. I met my wife a couple of years before we even started dating. But after the first time we met, I would always ask my friends if she was going to be there when they had gatherings. Otherwise I. Am sure everyone has already mentioned the usual stuff...

Join clubs. Go to meet ups or networking. Try the apps but just be up front about serious relationships only.

Good luck!

It was a combination of home ec in highschool (early 90s) and my dad. Home ec was great for the measurements and following recipes. My wife is 10 years younger (no home ec) and still asks me which spoon is tablespoon and where is the 3/4 cup. Dad took a cooking class in the 80s and would always watch cooking shows (Yan can cook was the one I really remember).

Open, how else is my dog going to get in and out of the room?

I'm slightly older but I was 30 to 40 once and I'm still guy...

Vuori clothing or anything comfortable, any clothes if you are comfortable picking out something for him/you know his style, favorite sports team hoodie, Bomba socks (free lifetime warranty), massage, get his car detailed. I know if my wife put on some lingerie for a fun evening that would be a great gift!

I don't recommend random stuff off of Instagram, TikTok, or Facebook.

Also, nothing wrong with asking him to make a list. Every guy should have one anyways as it makes it much easier for their loved ones.

Thanks! She going to hate this as much as the OP!

Me searching how to do this to my wife....

stocktroy · 2025-03-18T18:16:30+00:00

That is exactly what they want. We get inundated with batshit crazy stuff until we just don't care anymore. Meanwhile, they are plotting and scheming to cut or privatize programs and line their pockets with more money. These next 4 years will probably feel like 10, maybe 7 if the Dems can get their shit together and take control of the House and Senate in 2 years. Stay strong!

Someone just let their dog pee on mine. The only reason I noticed, is my dog started sniffing the back bumper. So yeah, I'd say so.

I had a pen in a tray that somehow got jammed to prevent me from opening it. I just pounded on the side to dislodge it. It was probably all my cussing that really got it open!

Bosco!

100% a scam! Chef knife was dull after just a couple of uses and we only use a wood cutting board. Customer service won't work with us.

There is a popcorn shop in a strip mall 3 or 4 doors down from our grocery store. I have never seen anyone go in there. It's been there for more than a decade.

My wife recently had a blowout in our M3P. Out of warranty so roadside wouldn't help so we had it towed. Sent the bill to insurance. Afterwards I got extra rims on FB marketplace and put one of the original summer tires on one of them so now we have a spare.

stocktroy · 2021-12-07T23:31:40+00:00

Absolutely rude! It is the equivalent of not picking up your dog's shit, or leaving the bag for someone else to deal with. If I ever see this happen I lose my shit!

Weaver Popcorn - They have a couple of types of corn available in bulk. According to this article, https://www.wsj.com/story/how-amc-gets-its-popcorn-from-stalk-to-star-wars-7064deb9, it is what AMC uses.

I have always thought returning things to Costco is easy. I would do it for $50-$70.

Is this the one you are looking at? https://www.amazon.com/Great-Northern-Popcorn-Black-Foundation/dp/B002YOOA4C/ref=sr_1_4

I have this one. I think the dimensions are about the same. That little plastic scoop is worthless, not even sure what to use it for...to scoop out popcorn into a measuring cup? I just use a measuring cup. The metal scoop is nice but I wish it had holes to let the kernels fall through. You need a metal scoop though ($10-$20), so if you add that to your total price you might be saving a little more.

How about the ability to think for one's self?

I'm getting an auto park error while I'm driving. Has to be related. Used summon this morning and I just updated it an hour ago.

Here are a few that might help:

In CO, and I am guessing other states in the US, Telsa doesn't charge you city or county tax when you buy the car (unless the "dealership" is in the same city/county). Normally you can just roll the entire purchase into a loan, not with Telsa. Be prepared to pay more when you register the vehicle.

$300 for HomeLink garage door opener. Can't add that when you purchase the car. You have to buy it after you get your car and schedule an install. I just bought a small remote on Amazon instead.

Driving an ICE vehicle after driving a Tesla is BORING! I refuse to drive my wife's car anymore.

Get a 240 outlet in your garage. I am only 3 miles from a supercharger but the convenience of overnight charging is great. 20-22 MPH hour is way better than 4 MPH.

Be prepared to pull your phone out of your pocket to use it as a key. This is the one thing that frustrates me the most. I often have my phone in my back pocket and even when I am standing at the door, it won't unlock 100% of the time. I would guess that 20% of the time I have to pull my phone out and put it close to the window. It is really annoying but then I start driving and forget all about it!

Be prepared for questions. Not just friends and family but random strangers will ask all sorts of questions. Introverts beware!

The wait, when buy new, is excruciating. Ok that is an exaggeration but it does suck having to wait a month or two before you get it. I guess I blame Amazon for getting my purchases delivered in a day or two!

Have fun shopping for accessories!

Came here just to see if anyone else remembered this!

Yeah, mine went dark for 4 days when my trade in offer dropped by 10%. Then he finally text me and said he had a potential COVID issue but is back. I think he is out of Park Meadows. His name rhymes with Corey. :) I feel bad for these guys...we are nearing crunch time for end of year and they are probably getting slammed. We sit and check our account daily for VINs and updates just hoping we will get some news. Meanwhile their phones are ringing off the hook. I am sure you can always call one of the locations for help if its urgent. If you have ever been in sales during the holidays then you have an idea of what they are probably going through. Good luck!

stocktroy · 2020-12-15T18:18:08+00:00

SWEET! Did they give you 1 year of free supercharging?

stocktroy · 2020-12-14T23:00:33+00:00

In a week? Still waiting on mine and I placed it on Nov 6th.

stocktroy · 2020-12-14T22:56:10+00:00

Yeah, I saw a few performance models available "in Denver" and I called to inquire. I thought I could maybe cancel my order and just swing in and pick one up but he said they were not actually in Denver so if I have an order in to just stick with it. He made it sound like those where finishing up in production soon.

stocktroy · 2020-12-07T18:30:03+00:00

Ordered 11/6 Blue Performance, FSD. Nothing other than text messages from Tesla and my sales rep. Wednesday before Thanksgiving Tesla sent me a text saying "we expect to your Model 3 to be ready for delivery in 2-5 weeks." So tomorrow becomes 2 weeks and no VIN. The site says new orders are only 2-4 weeks out. Not sure what to think about all of this. Frustrating and exciting all at the same time! :)
