    Ah well if they're turd chasers they're probably used to it.

    Does the guy who goes face-first into the mud hole get hazard pay?

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    If you woke up naked in a tent covered in vaseline and the person you went camping with was gone, would you tell anyone?

    The Astronomy Thread

    Don't forget all of these machines would have to work for hundreds or thousands of years without being able to get spare parts or materials for repairs beyond what can be taken with them. We've never built anything remotely like that.

    Household Major Appliances

    One beef I do have with my Samsung dryer is that it will give a time at the beginning, but then if they clothes aren't dry at the end of that time (and they usually aren't) it just keeps adding time until they are dry. This isn't a problem most of the time but there's been a few days where I...

    The finest Covid is aged 19 years in a cave in France. Covid-19. By law it can only be produced in the Covid valley in western Brittany.

    So My Wife Died...

    Puppies and kids understand each other. An adult dog who wasn't raised around kids might have been overwhelmed but everything is play to a puppy, just like a little kid.

    Some people think the plastic will poison them with pthalates or something.

    Household Major Appliances

    I have to say that my Samsung washer and dryer are pretty great. I've had them for around 10 years without a glitch and my brother has a set that are at least 5 years older than that. Not to discount others experiences but just adding my story. I've have a lot of trouble with appliances...

    It's going to be very disappointing if this all just goes dark again and there's no closure on this giant cock tease.

    Breaking Bad

    Same here. I liked "Better Call Saul" quite a bit but I could never get on board with people saying it was better or even as good as Breaking Bad.

    Put a chunk of 2x4 from the existing board out to the nearest stud on either side. Screw it into them to hold it in place, then put a third piece of 2x4 all the way across the top of all 3 boards and get it well attached to the studs on both sides.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    I've heard that all of the lithium ion batteries in the world have enough capacity to power the US grid for like 3 minutes if you could somehow hook them all up. Without huge advances in battery tech we aren't going to be running the grid on batteries anytime soon either.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    They're not going to be building transmission lines out of this stuff any time soon. It will be a massive invention if they can just use it internally in microchips.

    Oppenheimer (2023)

    The Germans tried the method of making weapons-grade plutonium that the US used and it failed because the graphite that they used had impurities in it but they didn't know that. The result was that they gave up on that method and tried to use heavy water. The Allies knew they were trying to...

    When I saw this thread was 24 pages long I should have known Araysar was in here flogging his Russia shtick again.

    Not jumping on team Lumi here but that is a very religious approach to science.

    Homesteading and Hobby Farm/Ranch

    I use a disposable blade folding scalpel. Same knife I used for castrating calves. You can't even feel yourself being cut by it. The downside is, especially with the calves, things start jumping around and you touch that blade, you are 100% getting cut.

    I grew up chopping heads and just recently switched to the slit throat/kill cone and I think it's better. Nice and quiet without all the flopping around, torn skin and broken bones you get from severing the spinal cord.

    Dark Winds

    I watched Season 1. Looking forward to Season 2. I was watching Reservation Dogs and Longmire at the same time and it's pretty funny to see all the same actors but I guess there's not that many Native Americans in Hollywood.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Passive-aggressively punishing them will only make things worse. Be a man and tell them they hurt your feelings and give them a chance to make it right. Then whatever happens get over it and get on with your life. They can be shitty if they want to, you don't have to stoop to the same level...

    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    There was a motivation to make quality stuff back then. Unfortunately people tend to buy the cheapest option so it's been a race to the bottom on price and quality has gone down with it. Who cares if your toaster only lasts 2 years when you can get a replacement at Walmart for $20 and put it...

    If they're like chickens then mating is basically rape so they don't really need to like each other.

    Are you talking about the one with the drawer freezer on the bottom? I have that and I like it quite a bit. It's a bit less convenient to access the freezer but more convenient to access the refrigerator which I do about 10x as much as the freezer. If you go that way though, don't get the...

    So My Wife Died...

    Good move on the dog. Good point on the "living your life" part too. We're taught to always sacrifice for the future and we need to do that, but you have to enjoy your life from day to day as well. No one is guaranteed a retirement no matter how responsible they are financially. There's a...

    Hang them upside down from a tree branch or something and slit their throat with a razor blade. Hanging upside down calms them down and they don't even know they are cut if you use a razor.

    Meat birds are different. You won't get attached to them because they only live for 6 weeks and don't do anything but eat.

    I am being given a business

    I don't know about Brad but this has been my experience with these guys. My sister's ex was a competent plumber but thought that was pretty much on par with being a Nobel laureate in physics or something so if he didn't get a good night's sleep he thought he should be able to come in late...
