I guess I should of said outside and active, sure you can do i get tired of having to shower 3 times a day. I'll be honest I grew up and lived in Phoenix for 24 years and I have a deep hatred for the place so I'm a bit biased

The storm of 96? Was pretty bad, like 100mph winds and pretty nasty hail. If you drive a small car, driving is a little sketchy when the streets flood up to the sidewalk. I'll admit it's rare but it does happen. I also just enjoy being outside a lot and phoenix is terrible for that.

How long have you been in Phoenix? Granted there aren't New Orleans type floods but the flash floods can get pretty retarded. Monsoon season sucks dick. Phoenix is terrible.

Well, first of all he's married with a kid, don't think his wife wants him to go hang out at jiggles to work on his social skills. It also sets a bad precedent since they are only interested in the money so it's not a traditional conversation. You can rattle on about how wicked your model...

Everything that McCheese said is what works best for me, I'd also consider myself a pretty strong introvert. Don't talk to strippers either.

Yeah, the only thing is the smaller tubes will deflate a tiny amount faster than the bigger tubes but it's so minuscule it doesn't even matter. I want to go tubeless too but I feel there isn't enough time, cross starts next Tuesday and I'd want time to test it before racing.

Any tube will be fine, I run 18 to 23 tubes in my cross bike, tubes stretch a lot.

Yeah, I drink well over a gallon a day of water without even factoring bike time. I believe the rule is for every hour of riding you want to drink a 22oz bottle of water. Also, it's imperative that you eat before you feel hunger, if you start to get hungry or weak, it's too late.

I'm so excited the taco bell near my house that they demolished last summer is finally starting to be built. It's gonna be a Baja blast party.

Didn't an over saturation of computer based degrees happen in the early to mid 2000s? Everyone was told to go get an IT job because it makes bank, then they spend 60 grand on an education and get a job making 13 an hour and having to pay back all that debt.

I knew I wasn't cut out for college, I grew up very poor and white with zero interest in sports or schooling general, so instead of bitching about how unfair life was, I started working and worked myself(along with my cis white penis) into a decent paying job. It's insanely difficult to get...

ITT : Mist describes a communist utopia.

FTFY

This is how I feel, I feel like a ten dollar minimum wage would be fine but fifteen just seems absurdly high for a federal minimum wage.

I've worked myself into an odd situation, the standard here in Portland is 50/hour and the techs make 15 to 18 a flagged hour. I've been burned pretty bad before by shops on commission so I took around a 10k a year paycut for guaranteed stability. Our other techs make 50 to 80k a year but put...

I can say that in my field(auto body work), you would not be able to have an apprentice anymore since their pay comes from your check and they are usually unable to offset their cost until around the 6mo to 1 year mark and that's only at 10 an hour.

I have an economic question out of general curiosity. If minimum wage is 15 an hour nation wide, wouldnt most bottom tier be out of a job since more skilled and harder working people would take those options since they are now viable? I ask because I remember millenials having a hard time...

No but why are children a guaranteed right?

Fashion is currently horrible in Portland, my buddy visited this weekend and he made the same comment as you. It's this horrible 90s grunge/alt rock look. Most of the street kids here are actually the children of the suburbs, they take the train into town to panhandle and beg cause it's...

I get about 1 to 2 hours of overtime a check and yeah, I feel comfortable. I also managed to live in Arizona on 8 bucks an hour back when I was an apprentice, I had roommates but I didn't need foodstamps or anything, just need to be able to eat cheap and buy used.

Wut? I make 17 / hour and have around 5 to 600 a month of disposable income but I don't have a desire to drive a nice car or impress people with my status items.

That's how you incentive companies to invest back into the company over just pocketing everything.

I don't think anyone wants people to make less, it's just there will always be people at the bottom. I'd love for my business to pay me more but instead their is no incentive for them too since the tax rate is so low, we had a record year last year and got the smallest bonus ever, but...

Posted while I was posting but that's why if you have no options, you either move out of that city or join the military and get your government handouts. No one forces you to stay.

At my work we hired some 40 year old person to be the car washer, they are fucking useless. They have been there for 7 months now and still can't preform their job duties. When I was hired at 18 to wash cars, I only lasted six months until I got promoted out of it. Like others have said...

Has AoW been downed yet? I'm out of the p99 loop but haven't read anything and just curious.

Mccheesian feast.

Back when those charts were made, most men were likely doing factory work or other hard labor jobs. It made sense back then but yeah, it needs to be revised.

The newer generations have less and less desire for cars which also means fewer are willing to sit on a 2 hour bus or train commute.

The housing markets are changing, people are no longer wanting to live in the suburbs. I just read an article about the shift (too lazy to find the source), but it's no longer the get a cozy house with a picket fence. Everybody is trying to live in the core in some fancy high rise condo...

If I don't eat something by 10am, I get shaky. Breakfast is for champions.

155 and 5'10, hard to rub my bitch tits when I'm eating every four hours.

I just rub a magic crystal to release all the toxins from my body.

Yeah, what cabbie said and the MAX (light rail) is the best way to get from the airport to downtown, it's maybe a 45 minute ride.

Arizona at least has whataburger , that makes up for the lack of test market items.

I expected AoW to die on the first day too, they should of learned the lesson in Fear that you can't have 200+ in a zone without desyncs.

Vulak isn't that hard and I'm willing to bet they had probably 60 to 70 people fully geared and the strategy wasn't anything new, unlike the old days of 40ish people on 56k and Pentium3s. The only real gear check mob is AoW.

Joy, now I get to follow this thread and all the delicious drama that will happen.

Yeah, that's pretty much all you need. Platforms work fine for the majority of riding, you only need clip less for racing/climbing.

If you've been off the bike for that long, your position might of changed too, don't be afraid to raise the handlebars up if needed.
