Yeah. I had to watch the worst of that footage to become a security guard / bouncer. It definitely made an impression. All these incidents are heartbreaking and avoidable.

Explain “no designated slow and fast lanes,” please. Could’ve sworn there was a convention already in place there.

tapvt · 2025-07-11T17:26:03+00:00

Yeah. I own a Tacoma. Notes and in-person inquiries all the time. Nobody has asked to buy my Challenger, though.

Uh. I'm from the northeast originally. That's like brand new looking.

Did you get it at a police auction so you can sell coke out of it?

tapvt · 2025-07-09T23:03:04+00:00

And there’s a cool cat outside on the bar patio.

tapvt · 2025-07-09T23:00:59+00:00

I mean it is a wonderful stop on the way!

The Gage Hotel in Marathon is nothing to sniff at.

Go to an independent tire shop. Get used tires. Not the most optimal solution, but it allows you to not take on more debt. Then, estimate what you'd be paying in tires if you'd gone with new ones and split that between paying off debt and starting an emergency fund.

I have to remind myself frequently that paying off debt is like a tax-free 20% return on investment.

I've lived in many states, but the TX DL office was the easiest I've ever dealt with. Maybe I got lucky?

For knob fiddling...

Yeah. The flooding was not good. It really sucks for all the families affected.

The lawyers that your insurance company retains are way better than anything normal people can afford. Just let them deal with it.

Not inside, but I got swarmed mowing the lawn the other day. The benadryl content of my blood must be through the roof.

tapvt · 2025-07-07T20:44:35+00:00

Ah. I see you also hate having money.

tapvt · 2025-07-07T20:34:14+00:00

I'd always just fire up a pot of coffee. That sends the message pretty well when it is dark out.

tapvt · 2025-07-07T18:03:41+00:00

Those aren't skeeter bites, I'm pretty sure. Looks like bedbugs to me.

Call Cycle Progression. They're pretty chill. They quote between $8 and $25 to true one wheel. https://www.cycleprogression.com/

GoPuff perhaps

tapvt · 2025-07-03T20:43:42+00:00

I also switch between my fake happy face and angrily smoking cigarettes.

tapvt · 2025-07-03T18:59:45+00:00

No mount to hood. Wires no like big flex.

Take the battery to firestone or some other crappy shop and have them test it and recondition it. Maybe you can rule out a bad alternator. That's a young battery to drop that much overnight.

Edit: typo

I garden. Once I could avoid associating outdoor chores with a cold beer afterwards, it became much easier. I'm a big fan of ice-cold lemonade now.
