  1. Fun trivia fact, coconut water in the unopened shell is sterile, and has been used directly as IV solution in cases of extreme emergency. You will never get sick from a fresh coconut unless the knife or scraping tools weren't clean, and very unlikely even in those cases as the water is generally leaking outward when the knife cuts, flushing contaminants away from the remaining liquid.
  2. Be patient and wait for probe tender. Wrap if you want to help it. Insert your dick in a tub of peanut butter to get an idea of the proper probing perception.

    Cart Narcs

    Watched this guy load his car, then just nudge his cart into the space next to him instead of walking literally one extra parking spot to return it to the corral. Was actually dumbfounded at how lazy this fuck was.
  4. Please don't waste good pickles.
  5. Kicking off the weekend, breffiss.
  6. I fucking hate mosquitoes.
  7. She had it half right. Put it out on the street with a sign saying $10 and it'll make itself disappear quickly.
  8. But the shape of Oklahoma doesn't bother you?
  9. Do you fart in it?
  10. Wait long enough and they're all brown.
  11. Shouldn't matter at all since it's an electronically fan controlled "oven." Would make a small difference if you were in a manual fired smoker.
  12. What? We love United!
  13. No. They do a shitton of stuff that is not in the name.
  14. Exactly. And sonar isn't 100%, they knew something imploded in the area, but it could have been an external tank or some unrelated piece of stray scrap. They made the right decision to continue search until definitive confirmation. Plus this is/was a great training opp for a lot of the search team.
  15. This. Wait until you have a bird, any bird (that you'd actually take) in hand, and then contact your first choice and be open with them.
  16. Titanic also had engineering and manufacturing error as contributing factors (compartment design, metallurgy used). Lot of links in that fault chain as well. Not disagreeing with your second statement at all, but ultimately human hubris killed wealthy people in both cases. Did you read the article? They notified Coast Guard, who opted to proceed with search.
  17. Immediately after watching, I told a friend the movie could have been only those 5min of montage and I would have left feeling like it was the best movie I'd ever seen.
  18. Cheese Foundation
  19. You aren't wrong, look at his other posts, it's clearly an AI bot.
  20. Yes it likely had some internal damage from the wreck. And yes 8k is ridiculous for a Civic trans. Those cars are a dime a dozen, get a scrap pull with a warranty and pay a shop to swap it in, probably 10hrs labor. Should be 3-4k total out of pocket.
  21. For music, if he wants neutral performance, I haven't been able to beat the Etymotic ER-4 family for probably 15yrs, own 4 pairs. But they're pure headphones, no mic, though you can get an aftermarket mic cable. Ety does make other lower end earbuds that have mic, and I use a pair of them for travel phone calls. Now if you want comfort, I've posted in a couple other threads about custom earmolds - if you are doing long wear, you really should get custom earmolds for whatever earbud you choose. Added bonus of greatly improving the sound, specifically the bass performance and noise isolation, of any earbud.

    Arrival

    This, the story is fantastic. Short but strong.
  23. I probably posted this somewhere in here already, but Discount tries really hard to price match anyone, including internet prices and sometimes including rebates. It never hurts to take your best price in there and ask. Also re: the comment above about scheduling rotation at Costco, Discount rotates anyone's tires free, no matter if you bought from them or not. I've gotten some truly shitty service from Costco tire center, no serious damage but wheels came back just spooged all over with lube, dirty car, they just dgaf.
