    Wrenches. I don't really know any Germans but I suppose some people are into them.

    I have 2 pairs of klein linesman pliers. Most electricians I know just call them "Kleins", even if they're a different brand. I have a craftsman pair as well and they get the job done, but the Kleins just feel so much better in your hand. Probably not worth the upgrade for something that...

    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    I wrap mine in foil and change the foil every 2 or 3 cooks or when it starts to look real dirty. On my last cook I learned another reason to do it. I was doing a long cook on an 11 lb pork butt. The pellets ran out sooner than I expected but I thought I caught it just in time. I didn't. So...

    Good point. At least it was a somewhat reasonable sized snake for Montana. The one the kid karate'd to death in the culvert in past seasons was an 8 foot long Texas monster that don't exist here.

    Yellowstone

    A funny little screw up for those of us that live in MT. They said somebody had been to prison for "4 years in Texas and 3 in Red Lodge". Montana's prison is in Deer Lodge. Red Lodge is a little ski town south of Billings so it's funny to think of someone doing hard time in Red Lodge. I...

    AssHat of the Year 2021

    Yeah. Also @Kirun deserves nomination for his ignorant hot takes in the football thread at least as much as his impassioned political gibberish, but only a few of us have to suffer through both.

    2021-2022 NFL Season: Deshaun Watson will die a Texan!

    It's only fair that if you have AD on your team, at least one member of your team should have to help block him. It's only fair.

    2021-2022 NFL Season: Deshaun Watson will die a Texan!

    The 9ers should have won that game if they could have stopped stepping on their own dicks. We gifted them 2 touchdowns in the first half and the refs gifted them another one with that pussy ass facemask call on McCoy. Shit is hard to watch. By the time we got to Jimmy G's boneheaded...

    Ryobi is made by the same company as Milwaukee. They're the homeowner version, kind of the Craftsman/Black and Decker equivalent where Milwaukee is pretty equivalent to DeWalt. This might have been posted before but it's interesting to see who makes what.

    You might be on to something there. The dispensaries are just starting to open up here and the first on I saw was called "Stink Blossom" and it's on top of a freeway overpass. The name and the location and the general vibe of the place all scream that this is a skeevy shithole that you...

    That's pretty much how I feel about him coming to the 9ers. Unless he can play cornerback, he'd do more harm than good.

    The Rams will probably pick him up if no one else does since they don't seem to care about the salary cap and love signing big names.

    They should probably just put it straight up in the contract that pro athletes aren't allowed to drive cars on public roads. Give them unlimited use of a black car service in every city and let them drive their Ferrari on closed tracks, but no driving on the roads, especially at night.

    I know a guy that has been doing pest control for 10+ years and it seems like he makes very good money and takes most of the winter off to ski. They guy is a natural salesman (bullshitter) though and I don't think if I tried to do what he does it would work for me.

    The only reason Muur would want to keep losing the same argument for 8 months is it gives him a boner when people respond to his posts. Just don't give it to him.

    Weather

    In the sierra's where that happens almost yearly they do it with big ass snow blowers. The nice thing about driving down those roads afterwards is that if you slide off the road you just sort of thud into the snow and then back out and keep going.

    Don't take chances on a rookie. Get the #1 pick and trade for a proven starter like Jimmy Garoppolo. We'll even through in Robbie Gould for good measure.

    2021-2022 NFL Season: Deshaun Watson will die a Texan!

    Greg Cosell said today that most of the 49ers pass interference calls Sunday were not so much bad coverage as setups where the DB is following the receiver, the QB throws up a pass short, the receiver stops short or even comes back to the ball, and the DB can't react quickly enough and just runs...

    Dune (2020)

    Yeah since fantasy stories are supposed to be set in medieval England having a bunch of different races there doesn't make much sense but if you're letting that ruin the story for you it's on you in my opinion. If that black hobbit is making speeches about white supremacy then you have a point.

    It will work fine without a ground. The ground is just a safety thing. If you have something plugged into it with a metal casing and it somehow gets connected to the hot wire and there's no ground you could get a shock from it where if it was grounded it would trip the breaker. If you want to...

    The fact that you need to have it doesn't mean it's not a racket. In the last 10 years I've paid $66,000 in health insurance premiums and only one time did I go over my $6000 deductible and it was by about $300 when I wrecked a 4-wheeler and spent a night in the ICU.

    I think canning Shanahan or Lynch would be stupid. Who are you going to replace them with that would be better? They inherited dogshit and built a quality team in a couple of years. Last year and the first third of this year have sucked, but there's obvious reasons you can point to for it...

    I think he's doing the same thing Russell Wilson does sometimes. When things aren't going right they think they can just will the win by being a superhero even if the team isn't getting it done. Sometimes it actually works but it's not sustainable.
