    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Yeah, or I eventually pass them at 126 decibels, hoping that sends the message.

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Yeah, I thought I had escaped the rampant retardation that was California drivers & highways when I moved to Texas. But, it still happens here too. Morons in the outside lane going under the limit or slower than the flow, NOT moving over. I'm pretty sure driver's ed stopped teaching people wtf...

    Far Cry 5

    Agreed. Only buy games during Steam Sales though. So, $15-$30 instead of $60. Just got Witcher 3 finally plus all expansions for $25, I think. Awesome game. It'll last me until something like FC5 is on sale for 50%.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Yeah, the Demon is a lot more out of the gate and many dealers were trying to add an ADM on top to swindle some more profits. So, that particular model was over $100,000. Which, I think, is really stupid. It's not a $100k+ car. Hell (lol) it's not even really a $70k+ car. But, it a ton of fun...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    That's been around for decades. But, it's not $7,000. I have just about the least fuel efficient car in America - which I also bought in California, btw - and the GG tax was under $2,000. So yes, you're right that there are extra costs due to poor MPG (not just because it's a V8; many 6...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    It's not elevation that determines octane requirements. It's compression ratio of the engine (which is determined by boost - turbos or superchargers - and intake/exhaust manifold designs, pressures, and air:fuel ratios). California only having 91 is due to politics and taxes. It's a shit state...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    No. Curious where you heard that nonsense from. @Hachima Love the M car. Been looking to get an M3 for a daily since I want to get back into something smaller and lighter, but I can't find a 6 speed anywhere that isn't gray or white. And I've been looking for a while.

    Toys R Us -- ruining a company is very lucrative

    Yes, this is pretty crappy but, not all financial services are "evil". That's like saying all doctors, lawyers, dentists etc are evil. Or all car dealerships. There will always be bad eggs or straight up pieces of shit. But, there's a whole lot of good that goes on around the world. This just...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Relying on third parties to make things happen, in order to close business. IE; two clients needing a letter of credit from US Bank in order to secure a loan. Fucking bank can't even do that right, in a timely fashion. It's what banks are supposed to do!!! We're three weeks into a process that...

    In November, we spent just under $7,000 for spinal surgery for one of our dogs. Burst disc. She's doing great now, but still has some tremors. Only 3 years old. They're family; the decision was an easy one for us. Your pup is a little older, but 6 years from now, would you regret the choice to...

    Justice League (2017)

    So, what you're saying is; if someone's eaten a raw squid covered in baby vomit and SJW turds and doesn't like it, they need to eat that same meal 2 or 3 more times to convince themselves they DO like it?

    My questions is: why do you have so god damn many mice/rats/voles/squirrels/chipmunks to begin with and then after all this murdering, so many more left?

    I derive essentially zero pleasure from video games these days. Nothing seems to be fun anymore.

    Monster Hunter: World

    Looks pretty cool, but I've never played a MH game before. But, from what I've gathered so far, the point of the game is: kill monsters to get better items to kill monsters to get better items to kill monsters X infinity. Is there no end game? No goal? Is this a correct synopsis? I'm in a...

    Car Buying Help

    Always get gap coverage, if you aren't leasing or didn't buy a car outright. Then, you don't have to worry about this. If the adjuster "totaled" the car, you might have a tough uphill battle. They know the calculations based on paying for a fix or paying for the car then auctioning or scrapping.

    Pants-on-head retarded. Install a fucking ceiling fan and save thousands over the next couple of decades.

    Sounds like the kind of person who walks around with an "emotional support" dog so they can cope with the big, bad world.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Bro, you just convinced me it's a bad idea. I'm sure you've realized it yourself as well. Your current bike seems like the best choice, given all you just mentioned.

    MTG thread

    Yeah...not sure I want to support a company that is that idiotic. No common sense and no business sense. I care fuck-all about the value of my cards and I only ever play with family or friends a coupe of times a year. But, out of principle, I don't want to purchase anything from them if they're...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Yup, you're right about the active exhaust not being around at that point. In which case, I'd check out Zoomers or Magnaflow for the 392. You can get a dual chamber system and it won't have terrible drone while it sounds good. I can't imagine how annoying it would be to have that 4cyl mode...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Yeah, at 7 years old, you need to replace them at all corners. If only for the safety factor. And while the 20's look good on that big of a car, you will have more tire choice with 18's, like Palum said. One of my favorite combinations is a set of Weld wheels; 20's up front with 275's and 17's...

    Wow, he definitely didn't drive it. That's a huge shame. It's also unfortunate Dodge didn't keep using that shade of blue. Put some real rubber on the rears and drive that brute like you're 16 y/o.

    More power from a smaller displacement and smoother (though, very slightly heavier).

    How the fuck does someone like that get a job? Or, maybe even more importantly; survive as a human?

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    I really hope they do a decent job on this one. In a somewhat related vein; I saw Rogue One last night, finally (it's on Netflix). I enjoyed less than 10% of the movie. It was seriously a poorly done film. Characters we have no connection to. Scene jump after scene jump to set up a story that...

    You seem to be obsessed about your house being broken into. I thought you lived in Orange County? And, do you really think that thieves are going to creep around your house, see the lock brand and analyze it compared to your neighbors? Thieves are 99% retards and aren't going to be picking...

    Total War: Warhammer

    I can't even grasp how large that campaign is going to be. Will the old races be part of the Vortex race, or will that not exist and it's just a conquest goal? Tried Queek on Hard; got stomped. Tried Teclis on Hard; doing awesome. Thought it would be the other way around. Guess I just click...

    Blade Runner 2049 (2017)

    Theaters could be a big problem. I used to love going to movies. But, these days, it just ends up pissing me off a lot of the time. The expense is annoying, but the people are the real negative. Talking, phones, kids, etc. And, when the whole thing has wonky sound, it's a bust. Why go through...

    Total War: Warhammer

    Everyone's got opinions. But, I'd hazard a guess that yours isn't shared by anyone else here. The game is fun and the setting is awesome. Yes, TW games have some flaws. But, nothing that will stop us from putting 200-1,000 hours into this. The polish over the first TW:WH game is also very...

    Total War: Warhammer

    @Pyros I heard that its based on your three strongest settlements in the province, which can change from turn to turn based on what you build. One thing I'm thoroughly enjoying so far, is the apparent efficiency of the new game. It loads much faster and runs smoother in a lot of ways. Except...

    Total War: Warhammer

    Decided on Malekith for my first go-around. On turn 22 and have 47,000 gold banked along with about 3,300 income per turn. But...nothing to spend it on yet. Growth seems to be much too slow to tech up to any decent units, heroes, and lords. Just barely got tier 3 capital, FFS. I must be doing...
