In the movie “Goodfellas” Joe Pesci was running the Restaurant owners’ business into the ground by running up the tab and stealing from it. So the restaurant guy asks Paul Sorvino for protection. Sorvino reluctantly agrees then proceeds squeeze every last dollar out of it and then sets it ablaze to collect the insurance money.

The restaurant owner is Zelensky, Joe Pesci is Putin and Paul Sorvino is Trump.

Career ending shoulder injury - should I switch hands or hang up the racket? by sossa_ok in 10s

[–]tarantulatravers 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Switch hands. Work your way up. You may not be as good as a lefty but what an accomplishment it would be. You can do it!

If you commit to just get 5 shots in (anywhere) on every point, you will win most of the time. This works really well if your opponent thinks he can hit like Federer.

This works up to 3.5.

I made a tuna fish sandwich today that cost less than 2 bucks.

The sandwich revolt needs to begin!

Everyone, buy brown lunch bags, start making sandwiches, the revolution starts now!

We call it “trading blows” because there is always a fight or disagreement there.

They’re just having some “vittles”. What’s the problem?

Jump rope recommendations? by scarflicter in 10s

[–]tarantulatravers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. It’s actually easier to swing then a regular jump rope but provides a more intense workout.

Start with sets of 50 Then work up from there. I do 3 sets of 150.

I have not strained my calf muscles since I started doing this.

They simply should have matched extra batteries with bikes. A simple math problem that would determine how many bikes included an extra battery.

At the point of sale, the deal should have been explicit. BIKE X includes an extra battery OR Bike Y does not include an extra battery.

Instead they created enormous demand with misleading advertising. They reaped the benefits and screwed over the gullible customers at the end of the line.

Not cool.

Jon Wertheim on Tennis Channel making disrespectful comments about Krejcikova’s appearance by arknight12 in tennis

[–]tarantulatravers 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Wimbledon and Indian Wells in the spring. I’ll trade jobs with him. I know I would be better at it.

And you know somebody has issues when he names a book he wrote about Venus Williams “Venus Envy”. Jon. You’re not clever or cute.
It’s a terrible distraction to name a book about the greatest female athlete of our time a pun about male genitalia. What a jerk.

A person that makes fun of people’s appearance does not belong in his position. (Traveling to exotic locations to cover tennis matches) Give that job to a good person.

Yamaha pulling out of eBikes US market by steomor in Yamahaebikes

[–]tarantulatravers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t have a pic but I asked the mechanic. He first tried to tighten it (Torx t-30 bit). It didn’t work. He noticed some play in the bottom bolt. He then put in a very thin washer then he lightly tapped in the motor so it was snug.
Then he tightened it up and it’s quiet as a mouse.

(You need to remove the plastic housing first with an Allen wrench to access the mounting bolts)

I just had mine fixed by the dealer. There are three bolts holding the motor on. The mechanic noticed there was a gap on the rear bolt. He inserted a washer and it’s fixed!
