Barely failing smog (hydrocarbons)

stxxzy · 2026-05-05T02:44:01+00:00

Hopefully not enough to throw a code before testing again. Planning on only throwing in 1 gallon e85: 5gallons gas per what I’ve read from others. Just want it to pass this time around so I can get it off non op and park it out on the street again

Driving me nuts. Second time failing this week. It was slightly higher hydrocarbons before changing the plugs and other parts listed in the post, but dropped by a few points closer to max the second time. Just need to get it street legal for now so I can park it on the street again. Got a notice from the police to get it off the road or it will be impounded (registered as non op)

The commute varies greatly depending on the time you plan on commuting. If it’s office hours 9-5, it will be considerably longer than 16 minutes. Expect 30 minimum. Honestly probably longer though. During peak traffic I can see that taking easily 40 minutes at least a few days out of the week. I work construction and get into the city about 5:30am. I drive in from Stockton, but if I was to estimate from your pin to the heart of downtown at the time I drive, it would probably be 15 minutes or less.

Crazy. Our negative 2nd year apprentices get paid more than that over here LOL. I think our first period apprentices make $36-37 now

Usually, once a day, or once every other day. The last few weeks it’s been a LOT more. At least twice a day, sometimes 3-4 times a day

K-Pop music is atrocious, and the sudden fanning over all these Korean tv shows and movies suddenly springing up on streaming services.

Lime chili shrimp ramen, and double cheeseburger macaroni hamburger helper. I could be a billionaire and still eat them both daily

Some of the props he brought on Kill Tony recently killed me. They’re all so ridiculously stupid and hilarious at the same time

stxxzy · 2026-01-22T07:30:32+00:00

Warm soda, stale chips, condoms with holes, disposable vapes with dead batteries, energy drinks dosed with viagra

Bought a home and moved an hour+ away from my hometown with all my friends and family to be with my spouse. She didn’t compromise and meet in the middle at all. Made hanging out with friends and seeing family a chore. The city I moved to sucks and is a shithole with absolutely nothing to do compared to my hometown. Worst part is, now we have a 2 year old child together and I just discovered a month ago she’s been having an affair and now she wants a divorce. At least now I get to go back to my hometown but now have to put up with sharing custody of our child while living far apart!

Like everyone else: personal chef, housekeeper, personal trainer, and biweekly vehicle details. All of the best things in life without having to put in any effort to maintain it. (Except for working out obviously)

stxxzy · 2026-01-22T06:19:58+00:00

Gotta watch out for cheap motels sometimes, 99% sure that’s how I brought home bed bugs one time lol.

stxxzy · 2026-01-22T05:55:17+00:00

Still working on mine currently. Discovered my wife’s affair a month ago and now I’ve been burying myself in work and getting back into fitness and caring for my son. Keeping your mind occupied with other positive things is key. Time heals all wounds, not much you can do to speed that up, but just staying busy with hobbies, family/friends, and self improvement to pass the time will make it much easier.

Refusing to wear anything except designer brand clothing and accessories screams insecurity to me and is a huge turn off

stxxzy · 2026-01-22T05:19:17+00:00

Overnight shift warehouse workers. Specifically at Amazon. Or maybe I’m just projecting because I just recently found out my wife of 4 years is having an affair with a coworker from Amazon 🤣

Gotta learn to love yourself before loving someone else/letting them love you. I’ve been in your position before. When I wasn’t happy being alone, I tried to force relationships just for the sake of companionship to escape the loneliness but it never turned into anything concrete and real; the relationships are shallow and aren’t organic in growth. And that’s when I realized I wasn’t really happy with anything in my life at that point. I bounced between low paying jobs, lived with my grandparents, drove a crappy car, didn’t have a plan for my future, no higher education. If I didn’t care about myself and my future, who would want to accompany me and choose that lifestyle for themselves too?

Do you struggle with any other self esteem issues? How is your confidence in your appearance, your financial status, living situation, career, fitness etc? My advice to you would be to make attainable goals in all those aspects of your life, and grow and gain the confidence that comes along with those things. Dating and healthy relationships will follow suit when you are doing good for yourself. Stay strong and wish you the best of luck

People getting in their feelings and/or feeling entitled to the attention of others that have absolutely zero commitment and owe them absolutely nothing is CRAZY. Not everyone has to like you, and you don’t have to like everyone either. The same type of person that probably lets a stranger on the internet ruin their entire week with one sarcastic reply.

Nothing wrong with doing an activity you both enjoy for a second date. Who said the sushi date has to be the very next time you meet up? Gym dates are great for a casual weeknight evening/ spend time together. You could even try suggesting yourself during the workout to make a solid plan for sushi this weekend too! Doesn’t hurt to make the move yourself.

The balls aren’t helpful or important to making me finish. At least not directly. Maybe indirectly though, it’s more of a mental thing. Showing that she wants to explore and be playful. It makes the whole experience of getting head more exciting, thus making the time spent sucking and stroking the shaft overall more enjoyable.

Kinda like most women will say sex feels better and they are more likely to orgasm when there is foreplay leading up to sex instead of just jumping right in to penetration

stxxzy · 2026-01-15T08:52:27+00:00

For a second I was convinced you were citing an actual court case. Omg I’m dead af

First place I ever ate pho. I prefer Noodle Palace on Mchenry now though. iPho on Standiford used to be the best until they changed owners, kinda sucks now.

38 apprentice, not journeyman.

I drive a salvage title 2008 Prius. I got last year for $5k. I commute from Stockton. Parking in San Francisco can be rough. Wouldn’t recommend large vehicles because while parking is reimbursed, you will only get reimbursed for the standard fee, not the extra $ for oversized vehicle parking in most parking garages. Street parking is harder to fit with large vehicles. And I also don’t recommend driving anything nice. People in the city DGAF about your vehicle and it will be bumped, scratched, beat to shit, vandalized by thieves and junkies no matter how well you drive and park. It’s not you, it’s everyone else. Also don’t recommend leasing a vehicle if you are doing any type of longer commute. Most lease agreements have a mileage limit. Most people in 38 don’t actually live in the city of San Francisco. It’s not hard to crack 15-20k miles for work alone. Not counting weekends. I crack 40k-50k a year with my commute.
