To suck money out of the system like the rent seeking leeches they are.

They both want it because it's one thing that either of them has a chance to do that SpaceX hasn't already done.

It's pretty easy to get a real estate license and it's possible to make a lot of money selling houses so some people think that taking the classes and taking the test is actually what makes you able to sell houses. I've heard as many as 80% of new real estate agents fail in their first year...

I have a neighbor with two Kubota tractors and he likes them. Did you get a cab? Attachments?

What kind of tractor are you getting?

What do you need a bigger one for? I have both a Stihl and a Husqvarna with 24" blades but my favorite is the 36v Makita electric saw with a 16" blade. It's so lightweight and quiet. Obviously it's not up to sawing firewood all day or taking down big trees, but I use it for everything I can...

You should at least buy a couple whole pig carcasses and hang tham in a tree and film yourself going crazy on them like Doug Marcaida.

Try sticking it in the freezer for a while?

I'm no expert, but the appliance lady at the local ace hardware told me it didn't really matter between the Frigidaire and Maytag gas ranges I was looking at but she really strenuously recommend the KitchenAid dishwasher. I bought it and it seems to work well. Not much to compare it to since...

My jeans get really fucking dirty and my Samsung front loader on "deep steam" mode gets them cleaner than my top loader ever did. I have no idea what it does and it takes an hour and 45 minutes but it's effective.

I've watched a few of those meetings on pornhub.com and they always just wind up having an orgy.

If you build an enclosure like this.... ...and face it south you will be amazed how much protection it gives. It's almost as good as being in a fully enclosed shed. My old house had a little lean-to like this on the south side of the shed and there was a roll of toilet paper in the back of...

Picked up a vehicle from being repaired at the local ford dealership yesterday and I counted that they only had 9 pick-ups on the lot. Then as I left I noticed 2 of them had SOLD signs in the window. This place would usually have like 60 trucks on the lot. We need a new one but I wouldn't...

And if you want to eat at a particular time, plan your cook to end at least a couple of hours before that. Nothing worse than a bunch of people ready to eat and your brisket that was supposed to take 12 hours takes 15. On the other hand, I once had a brisket that was done at 6 am and I wrapped...

What you're paying for with high end liquor, wine, food, etc. mostly is the feeling of being better than other people. Even things like cars are like this to some extent. This becomes apparent every time a so-called expert is stupid enough to submit to a blind taste test and fails miserably at...

Yeah if the ground is supposed to go up, 99% of the world didn't get the memo.

Our Subway can't have high traffic because they're too damn slow. My guess is their tuna salad is probably made from ground up seagulls.

Good old post hole diggers are pretty effective for a shallow trench as well. That's what I used to put in some electrical conduit in my back yard last summer.

This KFC is currently closed. Supposedly going to reopen soon with new management. All I can say is it won't be hard to do better than the last people.

Maybe I just don't get it but I don't understand what the draw of telescopes as a hobby is. It's pretty fun to see Saturn's rings or Jupiter's moons, but after that you're pretty much done. Stars through a telescope just look like...stars.

I did my whole upstairs in vinyl plank a year ago. I like it. Easy to work with, looks nice, and it doesn't matter if it gets wet. I haven't had much scratching either even though my dogs track in lots of dirt and gravel. I'm very happy with it.

I built my own risers for my washer and dryer out of 2x4s and painted them dark brown to match the flooring in the laundry room. Much cheaper than the drawers from the manufacturer and they're just the right size to slide the laundry baskets under.

Do you have a dog in the yard? We have abundant skunks, foxes, bobcats, coyotes, raccoons, etc. here and I don't ever recall a chicken being eaten in the daytime.

Chickens and ducks are easy and great. You can let them roam around the yard no problem as long as they are securely locked up at night. Some ducks are good egg layers as well. Turkeys can be fun too and they actually lay a decent number of eggs as well. Guineas only lay eggs seasonally and...

Nothing worse than showing up at the lumberyard right before the new delivery of whatever you need. You: "I need 15 2x4s." Guy looking at his computer: "You're in luck, we have 17 left." You: "I'm not in luck."

Loser has to get high on meth and spend the night in a skid row dumpster.

Yeah and a lot of times they were given up in the first place because of behavior problems that their previous owner couldn't deal with. They probably don't know but it would be pretty funny to be the previous owner whose asshole dog wound up in the white house biting people.

I don't know if it ever freezes where you are but if so you don't want the wet sharpener out in the garage. Even if the reservoir is dry the stone could break if it freezes. It's a pretty foolproof way to sharpen knives though.

When I moved into the current house there were two outlets that didn't work. The GFCI over the sink in the main bathroom and the outlet on the back deck. I figured the bathroom was a bad GFCI and the outlet on the deck (which wasn't a GFCI) was probably just full of water or mouse nests or who...

If sitting around drinking coffee and eating waffles is punishment then sign me up to be punished. This guy is a retard though.

My brother has one of those. He seems to have trouble keeping the temperature constant on long cooks though.

I'll see your fire and raise you...

I was a charcoal purist for years but I just don't want to spend 45 minutes getting ready to cook on a weeknight.

I would not say that a burger cooked on a gas grill is the same as one cooked in a pan. Charcoal does give you a flavor that's different than anything else though.

Not on par with you masochists in the southwest, but my home town hit 109 yesterday. The previous record high for June 15th was 97. Not every day you break an all time record by 12 degrees.

Fuck off

It seems like congress wants them to succeed since they severely lost the bid for the moon contract to SpaceX but then congress just decided to give them $10B anyway.

Women love the idea of those "tiny homes" for some reason. Probably just because they're cute. I bet for most of them the charm doesn't take long to wear off once you're living there.
