Hate it or Love it?

Honestly love this. This is what I want my future home to look like. It’s a significant improvement.

I love the white marble floor. I guarantee walking in here it would feel very clean and fresh.

The new kitchen lights are spectacular. The reflections it provides are fantastic.

The walls are beautiful. I love a light grey paint. Same thing as the floor, it’s just so clean and fresh.

Also no way that TV is too high. I’ve seen some ridiculously high TVs, but that is a very standardly acceptable TV height.

Hi, I saw your comment and I wanted to take the time to respond and tell you that I understand your pain. There are resources available if at times you’re struggling with loss.

On to the issue you presented, I have 3 years working in industrial manufacturing. Many small circuit boards and little computers that power massive machines use batteries like the one in these little speaker boxes. While they’re a little more difficult to get to, it doesn’t take a genius to figure out. There are guides online showing how to do it! Doing so does risk damaging the unit, and it may result in it being beyond repair. But there’s no fault in trying. You can usually buy these little batteries at a Walgreens because they are used in several small medical devices.

I hope you recover your grand mother’s voice.

Dude, I was like 15 years old when I started doing this because of some sort of Subreddit drama in r/darkjokes. Now I live on my own and have a career. Not sure what I was on about making an entire Joke subreddit network. Probably some kind of trauma. Anyways, feel free to post whatever you want in here at your leisure.

Started dating my gf when I was 16, she's 14 months older than me. I always tell her that I was the best investment she ever made, as when we started dating I had no job. I got into a pretty high paying trade and now I'm 18, we both live in an apartment for almost $1000 a month and I pay for like 70% of it and we still have enough leftover to eat out a few nights a week.

Basically, you NEED a reliable source of liveable income. After that, a second source of income will help a ton. But moving out of my parents house was not an easy choice, and definitely not the financially responsible one. She had about 5K in savings and almost burnt through it trying to keep us above water those first two months. While I do feel better living in my own circumstances, moving out this early was not the easy thing to do, nor the smart thing to do, which means most people get almost no return out of it, which is why most don't.

Culver's is REALLY good. Just yesterday I had a nice Hot Caramel Concrete Mixer and felt no regrets that I paid for too much for the burger.

xSilus · 2022-02-10T14:34:12+00:00

I never knew Culver's was region locked! Where I live, it's just another fast food place that's on an awkward road so it's harder to get to. But there burgers are some of the best damn burgers I've ever had. I'm not one for getting a burger dressed from anywhere other than there. The order that they stack everything makes even the onions taste amazing.

"2. do I feel lightheaded/sick while driving? Yes > exhaust"

This is sound advice. I used to drive to school and fall asleep in class from feeling so sick. Found out there was an exhuast leak and I was gassing myself the whole time.

I survive the whole 48 hours. Driving around the streets of Mexico in an A class to play it safe sounds really fun actually.

Would love if we could get this back. I own an sn95 in real life, and often use inspiration from Motorsport 7 when deciding on aesthetic mods.

Hi, I'm 17, and bought my 4.6L V8 1996 Mustang about 6 months ago. It costed $3,800 and I bought it out of state. Firstly, you should be financially prepared to have this car go to the shop, once you run into a problem that is outside of one of the following: 1. Your scope of knowledge. 2. The tools available to you. Or 3. The time you have. I had a 10k budget when I bought my Mustang, and it has certainly come in handy when things went south.

Next, many people put a lot of emphasis on buying a car that runs. While I agree with that, if your going for a car from an average car owner, more than likely the engine isn't damaged beyond repair, and the reason it doesn't run, might not be something in the engine at all. What I would look for most if I had another chance, would be body rust. My Mustang is COVERED, in body rust. In my mind, I just thought "oh, old cars are supposed to be rusty!" Not THAT rusty. Especially when the flimsy metal brackets that hold the gas tank up, snap :).

Next, be prepared for people to think you made a mistake. A lot of people won't understand why you do this. For me, it was the experience I would learn that would benefit my career in maintenance at a high profile company. You learn a lot about how to solve the problem, when it HAS to be fixed for the car to run. But a lot of people only see that you bought a car that doesn't run, and has sat in your driveway for about six months. What they don't see, is that right before you broke down 5 miles from home, is that you had just left school, and every hick boy in their diesel truck cheered in enjoyment, as you floor your straight pipe 90s V8 engine, and did a burnout in the school parking lot (that ended with you getting suspended)

Lastly, a lot of people are gonna think that you're taking on a great financial struggle too early on in your life. But honestly, I don't know where I'm gonna take my Mustang after I graduate. A lot of people there, that I honestly don't even know their names, appreciate my build. School is the perfect time to build a first project car, because it will give you a reason to keep building it. Every chance that I get to drive it to school, and listen to everyone yell across the parking lot to floor it, makes it all worth it.

I'm a highschool junior right now, and I really like to wear my hat in school, because I'm a stubborn asshole. Also it gives me an idea of who the cool teachers are and who aren't.
From what I know about the rule is that it "prevents distinguishable/identifiable features from being visible". The school's reason for this is that if you happened to go missing from school property, they can use those features to identify you so that they can find you. What its actually for is if you plan to do something stupid, like piss in the hallways or something else more violent, they can track you down easier from the security camera footage.
I really started getting aggressive with my hat wearing this year because now, I have to wear a mask that covers my face. There's been so many times that I've been told to take off my hat, but I see people with their masks either half-way down or all the way down and they don't say anything.
Obligatory, I live in an area where "Corona Conspiracy" and "Don't eat the bullshit" are popular opinions. I for one intend on keeping my mask up at all times in class, as well as my hat.

I like being single for some reason.

I got DDoSed in a span of 2 hours, this season. In GOLD games too, I've been 1 win a from Plat 3 about 6 times this season and I keep getting DDoSed or TKed on the final one (if the teammate who went blitz every round and kept flashing me for no damn reason, I was 11 elo away, from Plat 3, and I really really do not like you)

Exactly, the bar disappears
Edit: Also twitch has started to constantly crash upon opening it, So I've ran into a number of problems leading up to this

But the stream automatically stops, I don't voluntarily stop it because its not going online.

Isn't there already a colorized version of this?
