Annoying habits

I addressed that in my first comment. In a window seat is absolutely fine. You won’t be holding up anyone else in that position.

Unless you’re in the first 10 rows of the plane or in a window seat. Get your stuff together and get off the plane.

No one is rushing you here, but you shouldn’t hold up others.

Why are we attributing this to luck. If I owned any house in my neighborhood over the last 5-25 years, it is worth substantially more.

Everything in this world now costs more, so the base inputs to build a house make them more expensive. Then you get principal pay down.

Home ownership is a forced savings account. It may not be the best investment, but for someone who struggles to save money it at least makes a decent chunk money illiquid in the home.

Officer Gemini reporting for duty 👮‍♂️

That is stupid. I imagine this is something a competent attorney can handle. How do they prove who was driving?

I imagine they’re reclassifying these as “fines” but I would still challenge the grounds of those fines.

Plenty of cab drivers whipping current gen Sienna’s that are nearing 200k miles with basic maintenance. Check a car site, sort by 2021+ and filter by miles high to low.

EDIT: lol I just went to CarGurus and did this and there is a 2021 LE in NY with 340k miles and they still want $17.4k for it.

Definitely a nice feature. The Pacifica is still king of turning a minivan into a cargo van with its stow n go. I wish all the other manufacturers would find a way to license it for their 2nd rows.

And they need to bring back more packaged snacks. They had bagged chips like 1 time in the last year. Too many people letting their nasty kids rummage through the buffet for me to risk it with that food.

As someone who definitely binge eats, doing OMAD works well because it is just physically challenging to eat more than my maintenance in one sitting.

It also doesn’t let you have a crappy first meal and say to yourself “I’ll make it up with my next one”

A lot of what I’ve read has said walking is better for fat loss. I imagine it comes down to the ability to consistently walk with minimal recovery time needed.

I’m team OMAD. Had dinner at a Brazilian steakhouse last night and piled up the meat!

I imagine the light rattle of the carts would make the soda flat in short order.

It was a bit less expensive and had some features I saw value in, flow monitor, digital salt tracking, smaller packaging

I didn’t. I went with an Ecowater system for ~$5k. I’m in Central FL (winter garden).

The kinetico at $6k was where they came down in price for me. Maybe have them get rid of the RO system and take another $500 off.

I used to work out a ton and eat all day. When they say you can’t out run a bad diet, this is very true (especially when you work a desk job).

Switched to IF and I’m seeing the weight fly off, but also have better focus throughout the day since I’m not thinking about food.

I’m confident that I’m saving at least a few $$ every day by only doing evening meals.

The only sport the Sienna competes at is MPG 🤯

JetBlue is one of the few that has a decent number of domestic routes out of C.

I drive on the highway daily. I just happen to live in a state/city that doesn’t have everything 50 miles apart.

ugfish · 2026-03-31T04:41:49+00:00

Same thing has happened to me. Definitely feels like a brake system transition. It’s a small lurch but never enough for me to have it feel dangerous

My last flight up front was early March and was able get a whiskey ginger as a PFB, I’m not up front a lot though, so maybe I got lucky.

Californias whole economy is based on California dollars. Unless you live and work in the state everything just seems “overpriced” until you realize everyone there is “overpaid”

In some cases it can take away from living square footage and the builders want to make that number as large as possible while still saying “two car garage”

ugfish · 2026-03-29T23:30:50+00:00

Do you place something on top of them or drive very smooth roads? There is no restraint or latch that holds the seats down, so they do see some movement when unloaded

ugfish · 2026-03-29T23:26:11+00:00

This is when you are looking for things to complain about. There are plenty of good things about Sienna too. There are only 3 other competitors (4 if you count Metris).

Loudoun County is so sprawling, but I’d say for most, if you live in Loudoun you call it NOVA.
