  1. Probably don’t need the extra sippy cup… but for the sake of all your fellow travelers, being extra everything to entertain the kids.
  2. Did you live in Ludlow? All joking aside, kids, even the older ones so incredibly stupid things. I was at a friend’s house hanging out with other dads. One dad told his kids, about 8 and 10 to go out to his car across the street to get something. Damn kids nearly ran into the street right as a SUV came down the hill. The only reason they stopped was because all of the dads saw the car and yelled at them.
  3. I fucked up though. Tried to make it 3 syllables and forgot the S at the end.
  4. Here is said hairbrush. It’s pretty narrow. I don’t need a comb because the left side is short (#1) all the way to the part. All I need is to brush the long part over to the right. I don’t need to cut a line with a comb, so this brush works just fine. This puppy is almost 40 years old and still has all its teeth. I’d be davastated if it ever got damaged or lost, but most likely it’ll last until I’m 70.
  5. Do those teeth whitening strips with the shiny light actually work?
  6. Not to derail the thread, but everyone should stay, or at least visit the Mission Inn. Great architecture, and surprise gardens, corridors around every corner. We stayed in one of the rooms with the red doors. There was a separate room in the back, away from the main room. The kids woke up early and went there to read and play on their ipad while my wife and I had some morning spooning sexy time.
  7. The second oldest thing that I bought new is an Eddie Bauer travel mug like the picture below. Bought it in 1992-3 from Highland Mall. I still use it for my coffee on weekends.
  8. Problem is there is only one General Dynamics and there are a lot of customers waiting for their F-16s, including Taiwan which are waiting for their Viper upgrayyds and brand new F-16Vs. There needs to be a bigger audience for Saab Grippens which is a bad ass plane in its own right.
  9. Did someone say Rommel? Montgomery has joined the chat.
  10. I have a hair brush that I bought in 3rd grade and still use it everyday. It’s been almost 40 years and still going strong. I was living in South Africa at the time and the exchange rate was $1 for every Rand. So this is they best $1.30 (not adjusted for inflation) I’ve ever spent.
  11. For some reason, my bowels occasionally take the weekend off. This morning I dropped a 3 pound turd with the top sticking above the water. It felt glorious and I just wanted to share.
  12. Did you do the install yourself? I don't really care about coil tapping or phasing, just want a classic LP, non-muddy tone.
  13. Not joking on the worst sounding acoustic guitar. Burn that guitar.
  14. I got one of the Les Pauls with the damn circuit board. It’s got a few problems - when you pull out the volume knobs, the pickups are supposed to be tapped, decreasing the volume. Nothing happens when I pull out the bridge volume knob. OTOH, with the neck pickup knob pushed in (full humbucker), the volume is low. Pull it out and volume is full strength. Last complaint is everything sounds muddy even though I’ve lowered the pickups as much as possible, but still mud. Thinking of ditching the circuit board and going to tradition wiring. What says you?
  15. Tl;dr Cocky sumbitch rented a Porsche for an in-town trip then tried to get reimbursed for it.
  16. A few years ago, the VP I reported to hired a guy without telling me. It may have been a diversity hire, but I didn't care as long as he put his head down and did his work. The guy thinks he's fucking awesome, brags about how great he is at everything, but all his shit is a day late and with lots of mistakes. If it's up to me, I'd fire his ass, but it's not up to me. On Monday, the project team went to Malibu for a meeting with the Owner. Malibu is awesome, but the drive sucks. But he said "It was alright. I rented a car that made the drive enjoyable" and shows me a picture of a Porsche Boxster. I'm thinking... this guy probably makes $85K, has a wife who doesn't work, and 2 girls, how in the fuck does he have the money to rent a Porsche? This morning I got a call from my boss asking if I knew the guy had rented a Porsche and was trying to get reimbursed. I fucking bust out laughing. What a fucking dumbass. I hope they'll understand when I try to fire him.
  17. Fuck you Microsoft Windows 11 for grouping icons on the task bar. I usually work with 2-3 Chrome windows (not counting the personal one). I used to be able to quickly see and click which Chrome window to open. Now I have to hover my mouse over the fucking Chrome icon, see which one I want, and then click on that. It's not that I'm trying to save seconds (otherwise I wouldn't be fucking around on Surly), but it's just fucking annoying. Looking at at Windows forum, people have been bitching about this since 11 was first rolled out, and Microsoft has done shit about it. My company IT won't let me download a 3rd party program to ungroup, so it's dealing with this bullshit until Microsoft gets its head out of its ass. Fuck!
  18. When the flat sheet rides up while the comforter stays put. Day 1: fold the flat sheet over the comforter. Fold over is ~12”. Day 3: folder over is now about 18”. Hoe does that even happen?
  19. Dumbass coulda just cracked it first. What an idiot.
  20. Nothing will change until old white people get mass murdered by [insert your non-white race here] animals.
