    Ha-ha, you fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders, the most famous of which is “Never get involved in a land war in Asia,” but only slightly less well known is this: “Never assume that Noodleface's food opinions are reasonable!”

    Chernobyl

    Yeah, but they clearly insinuated that they ran into the chain because the pilot was being barbecued by radiation, not that it was just a routine crash due to pilot error.

    My Mom's refrigerator has ice/water in the door with a bottom freezer and I wouldn't want it personally. The ice gets melty from people opening the door and then either gets all hairy or turns into one huge chunk. My fridge has the ice down in the freezer drawer and the ice is much nicer.

    I hate to break it to you, but ALL large appliances are shit now. 5 years ago we redid my Mom's kitchen with GE stuff and a Whirlpool refrigerator. Of the original stuff only the dishwasher and the fridge are left and the refrigerator was in the shop for like a month last winter. The repair...

    Yeah. Buy a sheet of 3/4" MDF, have them rip it into 3 16" pieces, buy some brackets, screw them to the wall and the MDF. You have shelves.

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    People love to talk about the technology behind bitcoin as if that's relevant to its value somehow. You're not buying the tech, you're buying a currency that no one uses and only has value because other people are willing to buy it in hopes that it might become useful at some point. Until that...

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    I'm at $33k since 1/1/2010. For some reason I can't get the report to go back to 2006. Fails every time I try. The pace is accelerating in recent years though. I spent $4685 in 2018 and I'm at $2867 YTD this year.

    That's what people do though. It's an emotional response. They see it skyrocketing and think "I have to get in on this" even though they have already missed it and then when it crashes they're like "Fuck this, I'm out." Exact opposite of what you're supposed to do but people do it all the...

    Yeah, Montana really makes it easy. Thanks for the .kml though, I have one but the parcels are totally opaque which makes it hard to figure out where you are sometimes. This one is much nicer. Thanks man, that is really cool. A couple questions though. Is it possible to do it in higher...

    I feel like In-N-Out kind of grows on you. The first time I went after I moved to California I wasn't that impressed with it but by the time I left there were plenty of nights I sat in line at 1 AM for a post-raid double-double. Last time I went to California I got in my rental car and...

    Thanks for the offer. I may take you up on it someday but it will take me months or years of screwing around in my spare time to get the overlay to the point where it would be worth printing out. I will keep it in mind though, thanks again.

    This might be a good thread to ask. Is there a reasonably easy way to make a large print from google earth? I would like to make an overlay that shows the fence lines and pasture names of my ranch and the neighboring ones and then print it out at least poster size, preferably bigger, like...

    Quick legal threat

    In my experience, the police don't give a fuck about stolen property. The best you can hope for is that they won't sound too annoyed that you are making them fill out a piece of paper about your stolen item that no one will read ever.

    Call me a prude, but I think that ad is disgusting. The last thing I want to think about while I'm deciding what to have for dinner is weirdos with boners tying each other up in the basement, OR what a tongue looks like. That thing makes me consider skipping lunch, and certainly doesn't make...

    That's a legit way to roast something, the guy just used WAY too much fire. It's basically the same thing as a la Caja China/Cajun Microwave.

    It's hard to do science on people. That's why the answer to "Is XXX carcinogenic?" is almost always "maybe". There are some lawyers getting rich by convincing California juries that glyphosate causes cancer right now but I think those are all probably getting reversed at some point.

    The ecoboost has twin turbos which gets rid of most of the turbo lag. It's the same setup that they put in the mustang and it's pretty fun to step on the gas in that thing. I was worried about complexity too, but it seems like from what I've read they've held up really well. One thing about...

    The exception to this is the Ford 3.5l Ecoboost V-6. It does 0-60 in 6 flat and if you step on it at 75 to pass somebody you will be easily doing 95 by the time you get around them. The thing is incredible for a v6 pickup truck.
