  1. I need to start using the shorter wash cycles on ours and see how they do. Our dishes aren't really that dirty when we put them in and the normal cycle takes like three hours.
  2. I rashed my front wheel in a parking garage and had to restrain myself from letting the f-bombs fly with the kids in the car. Ruined my whole fucking day and still pisses me off everytime I see it. They're polished aluminum so not even sure it can be fixed.
  3. Too late for you to change your mind now, but just an update on my KitchenAid. I think I bought it about 2 years ago, but can't remember exactly. About three months ago it started getting progressively louder during the wash cycle. I eventually determined the motor had gone bad so I ordered a replacement and swapped it out myself. Pain in the ass and annoying after only two years, but at least it seems to have fixed the problem for now. It may have just been a fluke, but I'll probably look at Bosch and Miele next time just because they seem to get great marks on long-term reliability.
  4. I think the credit agencies actually prefer you utilize, or at least appear to utilize debt. It seems like my score bumps up a few points if I leave a small balance on my credit card for each statement instead of paying it off. It really makes no difference to me though so I just keep paying it off. The whole system is ridiculous in my opinion.
  5. We've started acquiring Staubs, but not sure we'll spring for this big bastard.
  6. It was just some random post on Instagram. I let myself go down those rabbit holes for some reason.
  7. Just read a whole string of comments bitching about the USPS being completely overwhelmed by packages this Christmas with most of them referencing fake ballots and what not. Hey morons, your fucking guy did this!
  8. Thinking about picking up a new Rye or two for my Old Fashioneds. I've been using Sazerac and Templeton. What should I get? Rittenhouse? Pikesville? Other?
  9. I'd look into C5 Vettes. Could probably finance one for 84 months to keep the payments down.
  10. I stop and point this shit out to my kids. See those people? They're pigs. Don't be a pig. Now they point it out to me when they see it so mission accomplished.
  11. The pork ribs are typically excellent at Pinkerton's. I've also had a badass beef rib there. I don't do sides.
  12. Yeah I've had both excellent and mediocre at Pinkerton's. Tejas has been fantastic every time and I haven't had a chance to try Truth yet.
  13. I do remember the first time I took my Dad to Pinkerton's and the fatty brisket was on point that day. He said 'wow, it melts in your mouth.' Yeah Dad, that's what it's supposed to be like.
  14. I've had way more shitty sausage than I've had shitty lean brisket. I like each for their own reasons. I'm sure you've noticed the nicer houses in my neighborhood are outside the gates. The gates are there to keep us away from them.
  15. I always get a mix of lean and fatty.
  16. Anyone not moving their ass to get out of the way in parking lots make me surly. Completely oblivious to their surroundings with no fucks given.
  17. I don't know how people run their cars with no cats. Smells like straight gasoline fumes.
  18. Damn that was a great episode. My seven year old daughter has been watching along with us this season and got pretty excited when Luke showed up. Can't wait to see what else they have in store for us.
  19. Fuck. Yes. Time to pour another beer.
  20. I did one of this and one of the Cognac just to try.
  21. No more work for the rest of the year...except I'm about to log back in...
