  1. the speed limit on turning the VHF knob on the tv. not specifically defined, but we got yelled at by my dad if you went too fast for his comfort at the moment. prettymuch just had to keep the clicks from channel to channel distinct from each other to prevent "wearing out the contacts". since we were the de facto remote control for my parents, this was a sacred duty.
  2. ok, but how about them warlocks?
  3. so close, but no worky. oh well.
  4. the seats in my 2000 taco are shot (driver-side springs, anyway). 60/40 bench. need to figure out if the rails are the same.
  5. and NowThis...
  6. And it really doesn't matter if I'm wrong I'm right Where I belong I'm right Where I belonnnnnnnng
  7. who's gonna tell him about PEX Herpes?
  8. is it that hard? is it really that fucking hard? jfc on a popsicle stick. /trivial shit
  9. I make the same mental translation when I hear Manu Ginobli to Heywood Jablowme as I do Gus Malzahn to Harry Ballsagna. they're not even close. it annoys me. carry on.
  10. I'm just gonna assume it was about Ameros.
  11. my bad. should have said, "tell the last part first." apparently, I sweat 1/2" copper for beer (if you're in 78759).
  12. so...wrong thread, jimbo.
  13. this is how bored I am
  14. maybe, but my working theory lately is there's too many damn lawyers here, and no one wants to take the chance on getting sued. kind of like how none of the real doctors chime in on the health/injury threads.
  15. from all the recreational drinking and lack of activity, I was clearly dehydrated, but had to run with the inspiration (and comparatively fair weather) at the moment. started running out of juice somewhere in the U. resultant backfires from the increase in effort diverted my aim several times, thereafter. all the pipe paranoia here finally got to me last night, so I went around checking hose bibs. had two frozen. no heatgun, so I used my MAPP torch from a distance, until I got cold and pissed off at the stubborn one. sweat joint came loose, just inside the rock wall (haha, very funny plumber guy). I backed off, and it seemed to hold when it cooled down. not so much when I checked it this morning. shut off the main, drained the system, then removed, cleaned and reinstalled it. bullet dodged. so...don't do what I did (although it was effective on the ice problem). .
  16. 2.0: good thing my HEB is never open. otherwise if they sell out of those fries, my kids will hunt you down and kill you. last of the chili I made on Thursday to take with us on a ski trip we cancelled on Friday. ran out of fritos yesterday, so had to go with broken Calidads. pretty sure the japs triggered my run upstairs. can't complain. got to take care of business while I still had power to my bidet. never know exactly when the next blackout will hit.
  17. something something lemons...
  18. I can attest, she's smokin hot.
  19. we have plumbers...but they live down here, too. plumbing school prof probably just skipped the Frozen Pipes 101 chapter. HVAC: I'm on a heat pump. gave up on that yesterday. emergency heat is holding 64, but it's running all the time.
  20. shityeah! real kids fly that wooden tabletop. I've not figured out how to get enough speed there to compensate for my lack of technique to do that.
  21. btw, this is my press. https://www.amazon.com/Secura-Stainless-French-Coffee-Screen/dp/B00JE36GLQ love it. unbreakable, easy to clean, and insulated so your coffee stays hot.
