I was just going to post this up. So sad. Fuck cancer.

I think to understand the greatness of the Polaroid process you would have had to have been older than a kid when the cameras were a thing. Naked pictures of your wife/girlfriend were out of reach to most people unless you had a darkroom or unless you were OK with the kid doing the processing at...

Weathertech manufactures OE mats for many automakers.

Likewise. Merry Christmas, Gravy.

Fuckin' affirmative action.

Well this is the "shit I just bought thread" but this reaches a new low for animal cruelty. "The traditional method of collecting feces from wild civets has given way to intensive farming methods in which civets in battery cage systems are force fed the cherries. This method of production has...

You're not.

That's a really pretty amplifier.

The clue here is that 3 cars in the neighborhood are experiencing the same problem. Three cars with faulty starters, solenoids or relays is possible but unlikely. Three cars with old and weak batteries made worse by cold winter weather is more likely. I'd work that angle and also check, clean...

If the weather has been getting cold, I would suspect a weak battery. Go down and have the battery load-tested. It's free and most auto parts stores and even Walmart can do it. I'm not talking voltage test. I'm saying load-test. Not the same thing. Anyway, do the free things first before you...

Fuck, I fell in love with her in Spiderman. She was also in Jumanji as a kid.

God I love that movie. It's the most under-rated Harold Ramis film around.

Oh, I think the bidet idea is great, just not with cold water.

Do you really want to spray icy cold water at your ass and do you really expect your wife to do the same and more? I expect you'll each use this thing exactly once.

This is one of the best Kitchenaid attachments for baking although quite a few companies make them. It scrapes the bowl clean as it mixes the dough.

I don't even have a mom.

Happy Thanksgiving, Gravy.

Planes, Trains and Automobiles

If you need a movie to watch this Thanksgiving, this is the one.

I thought this little gadget was kinda neat. I don't know how it compares price wise to similar stuff. FLIR Thermal Imager for iPhone

I don't care how old you are, that ain't right. Dust maybe, but not blood.

, speechless.

I agree, but that's the reality for me. So therefore, I think its ridiculous for Amazon Prime to not offer the option to lower their streaming quality. Maybe I'm old and blind, but medium quality from Netflix looks the same as Amazon's 'only' quality, but 2 hours of Amazon puts me over the...

Disposals are easy. They're mostly universal in how they connect to the sink so don't remove that part just yet. It's just a cam-lock collar. You'll see some nubbins under there to grab and twist with your hands but more than likely, a couple of taps with a hammer will get the collar moving. Be...

Yes he does.

Well if their aim is to cut down on my drinking, which isn't much anyway, they've succeeded. It's a pain in the ass to go to the ABC store so I don't. But in so doing, they've also eliminated the revenue they would get from me in the form of taxes.

In ID, anything other than beer and wine is sold at state-run liquor stores only. I don't get the rational.

State run liquor stores. Can someone explain why they exist? You can't go to Costco or your local grocery store and get a bottle booze. Nope, you have to make a special trip to a special store and overpay for everything except beer and wine.

I don't know if it's cheap shit or not, I just know it takes a hell of a lot of real estate to form it into a curve. Same with Ethernet cables. I was hoping there was an alternative cable that was more flexible. Kinda like if you look around, you can find speaker wire that looks like tape and...

Maybe related. Is there an alternative cable I can use that isn't as stiff or heavy as the RG-6 stuff the cable company uses? Same with the Ethernet cable. I'm trying to clean up some messy wiring in my living room and make 1' cables instead of 5' cables but the shit is no fun to work with...

I think some of the choice comes down to what market your house is in. A vinyl floor in an upscale market isn't going to fly when it comes time to sell. On the other hand, putting wood down where there is water is not wise either. That's especially true of laminates. I would install stone or tile.

And that's that attitude they've adopted.

Again, I don't have a problem with the concept. Many times I've shown up at a gas station in a tux on my way to a gig and the last thing I need is to smell like gasoline when I get there, so it would be nice if someone else could pump the gas for me. But the two stations I stopped at in OR had...

On my trip, the gas in Oregon was cheaper than in neighboring Idaho and Washington so it's not because of pricing.
