It's the only thing his ex left him. Low miles because he's been living in it, rather than driving it.

I should probably stop getting so upset over a things I read on the internet, lest I go foaming-at-the-mouth-angry over some lighthearted ribbing or an onion article or something else trivial and meaningless. Things people say about me on the internet are easily ignorable, and when I start to get mad I should probably step away from the keyboard and go do something productive like work on my car until I calm down." Now don't you feel a little better?

I checked out the 71 Midget from the Craigslist thread today. It wasn't quite as good as it looked, especially a funky soft top that didn't fit quite right. Clutch wasn't great either, but that little thing made a beautiful noise and roared through the gears wonderfully. The top of the windscreen is about eye height, which is a little annoying. Not a speck of rust anywhere except on the rear lip of the cockpit, as he said. We weren't 100% sold on it, plus we didn't have enough room in the car for all spare poo poo anyway, so we held off. We'd have to come back with a pickup for the spare engine. Tomorrow we're checking out a really nice looking MGB, I want to compare the Midget vs the MGB and see if it's a little more suitable to my height.

Star Trek box sets are crack for gay couples. All my gay friends have box sets. Mostly TNG, but one has original and another with Deep Space Nine. Dark Shadows is another common thread between them.

goatse guy posted:In retrospect, my friends probably recommended it because they're huge Nathan Fillion fangirls. He looks like a dad or a high school science teacher. I don't get the appeal. I used to hate Nathan Fillion, first time I saw him act he was on some sitcom as the boyfriend of the girl the main character had a crush on. I was like "what the gently caress who would ever like that guy". But Firefly turned me around. Like most people I missed Firefly when it was broadcast but I dated a girl in 2005 who identified as a Browncoat and participated in the campaigns to bring the show back and get the movie made. The outtakes of Firefly and other interviews and stuff have made me into a Nathan Fillion fanboy. He seems like a genuine hoot to hang around with and I even love Castle although they should have cancelled that poo poo a few seasons ago.

If anyone is uncertain as to whether they like Nathan Fillion or not they just need to watch Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog. It is about the most quintessential goony thing to watch ever. It's amazing, thinking back to sole of the line deliveries makes me laugh.

Sigma X posted:When my girlfriend moved in she got control of everything. Her couch, her entertainment center, her chairs, her dishes. She has the astehtic sense of someone's grandma. Once I get my own place again, I'm going on an Ikea shopping spree. Cheap furniture, and much of it is the style I like. I do have plenty of nice dishes though. So I got home from work at midnight. I have to be back up there at 9:30am. I told them I'm not even available on Sundays, qne haven't been since mom's surgery - and that I typically help my mom those days. GM's response: "tough poo poo". Apparently the old GM kept everyone's availability in his head and/or written down somewhere. Almost nobody had their availability actually entered into the computer. And apparently this is my fault. I normally can't even fall asleep until at least 4-5am most nights. If I'm not asleep by 6, I'm just gonna toss a blanket and pillow in the car and go park behind the store; that's the only way I'll have any chance of waking up in time, since someone will likely knock on the window. I'll be so loving happy when I can get out of this place for good. I'm stuck working here until the end of the year in some capacity, just to make sure I can get my income up high enough to still receive my insurance subsidies (I have to repay them in full if I don't make at least slightly less than $12k) Also got a USB OTG cable. Turns out my phone and glucose meter link perfectly, and Glooko syncs them fine - except it keeps bitching that the meter has the time set wrong (they're matched to the minute). randomidiot fucked around with this message at 06:56 on Oct 26, 2014 |

I survived Ikea and most importantly so did my relationship.  .Girlfriend bought a desk and we barely fit it in the Outback. We were afraid that we'd have to return it but I pushed the box in a little more and it finally fit. I am so glad that I bought this car and I'm glad we didn't drive her Corolla like we originally intended. Didn't have time to put it together last night and I won't have a chance to help her until next weekend. She put together the last desk on her own so I think she'll be okay if she puts this one together by herself. Computerchat: I threw Xubuntu on my 7 year old laptop. I finally looked into how much it would cost to replace the dead wifi card and it's only about $10. I may have to do that. I also considered upgrading the hdd to a ssd but this is the first time I turned it on in months so I don't know if that's a good use of money.

We just moved around our living room setup. Two of my roommates still think it's freshman year of college and wanna hang up lovely hippie tapestries and old ripped posters. Me and the other roommate vetoed that poo poo so hard. Anything that goes up has to be framed at the very least.

I've got an Intel 3945 and a 4935 somewhere in my mess of poo poo-ill-never-use-again. I tossed the 4935 in my to-SAMart pile and listed it for $5/obo. I know it worked but my current laptop won't let me use it because it isn't on a hardware whitelist. If you want to toss me cash for a couple of stamps, you can have it. Everyone who says you need an SSD no matter how old/slow your machine is harbors porn guilt. There is nothing wrong with spinning platters that are a few ms slower for seek time - unless you drop your poo poo all the time. Mat_Drinks posted:Yes, but the overall volume is much higher when you're here and actively not talking about worthwhile stuff like that Sonnet that is a steal. I am self aware, thank you very much. Also, despite trying to find payment in full- the seller has had a TON of local interest. He said I can have it when everyone else falls through. For $1500, I'm pretty sure someone will actually not flake on it.

You really are good at getting me to buy your things. . The HDD is 7 years old. I'm kind of afraid that it's going to fail one day. I used it throughout college for 5 years and for 2 - 3 years it was my only machine. The HDD has been through a lot.

We can probably wrap this up in SAMart or PM. I also have a 120GB 2.5" SATA HD, but no EIDE. If you want that, it has maybe 3 years of sporadic use (it came with a machine that I kicked to 250GB almost instantly). If you want that, make an offer.

Tell him "I appreciate you wanting to sell it locally, but you need to understand, I love Saab. I bleeeed Saab. Please sell it to me. Or I will cut myself and bleed Saab everywhere. DO YOU UNDERSTAND I WILL PHYSICALLY HARM MYSELF IF YOU DO NOT SELL ME THAT CAR.". Or something like that. I generally give a rip about Saab (no offense, it's just not a marque that has ever captured my attention in earnest), but I'd own the poo poo out of a Sonnet, especially at that price. Though, I bet with the rarity of them that parts are a total PITA to find and/or expensive. But imagine going to a cars and coffee and pulling up next to all of those common Dino's, Austin's, etc with a Sonnet

Thats how it begins. Welcome to the machine.  I am still trying to work out how to get it, both logistically- and physically. I am not going to be able to pilot anything for a few days more- minimum- which gives me more time to wear the current owner down. It doesn't work very well to froth about it, but it doesn't hurt to show the office full-o-saab poo poo. I will own this drat car.

Beers are another thing entirely, you'd have to step up to O or maybe even G scale if you had inclines. Setting up a track in these scales are $$$$.
