I would argue that if you're focus group testing the plot of your story then you're not really writing anymore. At least not in an artistic way. You can't make art if you're that worried about what people think. Might as well hire a writer's room with one person of every race and LBGTQ+...

Good tomatoes make any sandwich better. My Mom makes sandwiches with peanut butter, tomato, and mayo when we have garden tomatoes. Sounds horrifying but I dare you to take a bite of one and say it doesn't taste good.

But it's cheaper to just buy a restaurant and force them to put a Monte Cristo on the menu than to go to Disneyland.

There's more than one way to fertilize your lawn...

I get a lot of use out of the dimmers in my TV room but in a shop I agree. Can't really imagine a scenario where you would want it darker in there.

Sounds like he probably should have been locked up years ago.

I don't care what kind of fixture, but get a lot of lights. My constant frustration is not having enough lights in my shop. I doubled what used to be there and I need to at least double it again to be able to see in there. My eyes have gotten worse in my 40's as most people's do and it's so...

Yeah, the more mature grass is the less palatable and nutritious it becomes. This is especially true of tall grasses that become lignified. I have pastures with native grasses and ones with introduced grasses that are taller but it's very deceptive because sometimes it looks like the...

The cattle ones about about $250 each and require an $18 a year subscription fee per animal. What's really revolutionary with the collars for grazing animals is that we've learned that the best way to graze is to graze a small area with a large number of animals and then move on quickly and...

Getting shocked often will stress them out but my understanding is that once they get trained they don't get shocked anymore. It makes noise and vibrates before it shocks them and they learn to react to that.

My experience with trees is that they will grow on their own where you don't want them but if you plant them intentionally then they will die immediately.

I think there are still a few movies that they haven't made a sequel for. They are 25+ years ago and all the actors are old or dead now but I think they can still put out a piece of shit sequel to get a few more dollars out of the retards.

Yeah I didn't hate any of the seasons but S1 is the only one I have or would rewatch.

Don't put chicken skin in it. Learned that the hard way.

The other thing is that they seemed to have no problem with the virtual fence collars which are a lot newer tech than tractor gps. I am in love with the idea of those collars and I'm seriously considering getting them for my cattle even though it would probably be an initial investment of well...

The GPS systems could be a little complicated for a boomer. My mom has plenty of experience driving tractors but I'd rather take a beating than try to teach her how to use the GPS. Once it's set up and working it's easy mode but making sure it understands the shape of the field and getting it...

Just take it to a tire shop. They know how to fix all sorts of leaks and it's not that expensive.

It happens. Living 10 miles down a gravel road I've had every type of flat tire imaginable, including that one.

If I wanted a cheap gas grill I'd buy a used Weber.

Not to shit on your math, but beauty pageants aren't won by the most attractive person in the country, but the most attractive person who entered the beauty pageant. Since only a psychopath would put their daughter in a beauty pageant, you have to adjust for the percentage of people in Denmark...

Or you could just, not eat McDonald's. The only reason to ever eat there is convenience and price and the price part is pretty much gone even without the delivery fee. I live far enough away from McDonald's that no one would even consider delivering it to me, but it would never even occur to...

The high end phones are getting harder and harder to justify. I just got my mom a new phone because she lost her motorola that cost $249 new 5 years ago. It was having a few issues but still working fine. The new Motorola I got her has face ID, 4 cameras, etc and 2 day battery life and it...

They mention that in the video. The stores used to price their core menu items lower but then they could up sell people on ice cream or shakes that have a higher margin. With delivery there's none of that and the delivery companies won't let them charge lower prices for in-store customers than...

He's right. Nobody is forcing us to buy this shit. It does sound like the fast food places have priced themselves out of the market when the economy is down though.

I'm 6' 2" and had a threesome with Daidraco and that other dude's wife.

Wood fences are nice looking but yeah if you want it to last, steel is the way to go. I have a neighbor who built a set of drill stem corrals back in the 80's and every post just like it was when he built it. Wood corrals built then have probably been replaced 2-3 times by now or at least a...

I always shake my head when a man or a woman talks about their ex as if he or she is a purely evil demon or something. I'm like "so why did you choose to move a demon into your house for many years and have multiple children with them?" What does that say about you? However bad they are, you...

Wifi calling on TMobile is fantastic. I may finally get rid of my landline, or at least the long distance on it.

Criminy. $90M to play 1 year of football. I can see why some guys lose their edge after they get that big contract. I probably would too.

Zero superbowl winning quarterbacks in that list and only 3 that have even appeared in one.

My policy on window air conditioners is that you always buy the biggest one that will fit in the window.

Glad they got it done before training camp. I hope he makes the guys above him look overpriced.

Domesticated ducks don't leave. They just cruise around the yard and eat bugs. They like to have some water to stomp around in but be advised they will make whatever water you provide for them absolutely filthy so you want it to be something small enough to dump out and refill regularly. I've...

Everyone is an expert on everything they know nothing about. I remember when they were building a new intersection with roundabouts in town there was a dude who was a diesel mechanic who "knew" that the roundabout was going to cause tons of accidents and he was super butt hurt because he went...

My girlfriend used to drive a CR-V. It was an old one (2003 I think) but I'm 6' 2" which isn't inordinately tall in my mind and sitting in that car was absolute torture. I refused to drive it if there was any other option because my head touched the ceiling and it really wasn't easy to work...

My guy is just a 1-man operation but there's a month wait to get a car into him most of the time so he's not hurting for business. It would be more affordable for a bigger shop but it's still crazy to have software subscriptions and special tools for a dozen different car brands.

The special tools are not just for the engine and transmission. My mechanic tried to replace a front axle in my 2013 F-350 and got it all torn apart only to realize that he needed a special Ford tool that he didn't have so he had to put it all back together and I had to take it to the...

It's amazing that there's still any independent mechanics around. Every brand of car has all kinds of proprietary software, special tools, etc that you need to work on them and the software is all expensive subscriptions and you can't afford to subscribe to all of them and the tools are...

Yeah, don't make zero baggage your goal, that person doesn't exist and if they did, they probably wouldn't want to deal with you. You just have to find someone whose bullshit you can put up with and they can put up with yours.

Fix it. Even if you still want to get another car, you can increase the value of it by 4-6k by spending $3k or you can keep driving it knowing it has a brand new transmission and the engine will probably last at least another 100k if not 200k. It's almost never a smart idea to sell a car...
