I room my wife to this thing where you're instructed how to make your meal by a chef and they provide everything and it was this creamy mushroom sauce that made me reconsider my stance on mushrooms. Unfortunately I am postin this from the loo where I've been sitting for the last 30 minutes thanks to my body telling me I have the Hershey squirts and the sharp knives in my gut tell me I had dairy and forgot my lactase again I have yet to poop

You know you have an issue when every piece of clothing you own becomes something you wear while working in the garage. I have no nice clothes because I'm essentially five.

Terrible Robot posted:Boss just handed me some emails about the water filtration systems in the science building throwing up some low level alarms. Check the dates, and yep, these were sent over a month and a half ago. Why the hell did it take so long to get down to me, there are only two people above me and they both see/talk to me on a daily or weekly basis. *sigh* I've been getting a shitload of tickets like this from my old manager. Doing wonders for my stats since drat near every one of them has resulted in "Oh, yeah we don't need that anymore." when I call the person making the request.

I have three t shirts, a couple of dress shirts and one pair of pants that aren't work clothes that's mostly because I lost like 80 lbs and none of my old stuff fit anymore so I gave that poo poo to goodwill but it does put a bit of a crimp on the ol' social life sometimes

Mat_Drinks posted:Math Chat: Am I the only goon that struggled with (and hated) trig, but loved Calc? Calculus made so much more spatial sense to me. Though I never took DE and the other legendarily hard classes after Calc III so maybe those would have quelled the fond memories I now have. Right there with you. I took trig based physics in college before I took calculus and in retrospect I really, really hated how much more complicated the trig physics was once I had a good understanding of calc.

Seat Safety Switch posted:93-01 Impreza. OBS. There's one on my lot right now that I've been eyeing up since it got traded in, and I'm pretty salty since I literally bought a car the week before it came in. I have the opposite problem from most of y'all. I have a closet jammed full of clothing, but it's all way too nice for the garage. I don't think I even own a pair of tennis shoes anymore because I threw mine out after paintball season was over.

If you drive an Outback Sport and you come back and say it's not the best car ever, you should probably find a rope and end it all, because your expectations are too high. It's like a big retarded Golden Retriever that you can drive. Could be a little faster, though.

I just overheard the most amazing conversation.quote:"So yeah man, I mean, I was loving around on my wife, no biggie right? But then that bitch gets pregnant and shows up at my house and tells her I've been cheating. And then she fakes the paternity test and now I'm stuck paying support for this little gently caress that ain't even mine and my wife kicked me out." He had some other lovely things to say about women but they went and sat down so I didn't hear the rest. Dude sounded like such a piece of poo poo I'm surprised he isn't my best friend.

Last weekend I downgraded a pair of old pair of jeans to work clothing only to realize just how baggy the 501s I had been wearing to work on the house and in the garage were and how much the bagginess limited my freedom of movement. Of course, they were thin so I promptly ripped a hole in the knee Any of you guys have any suggestions for a pair of work pants/jeans that are trim such that they don't get in the way but NOT skinny and are thick enough that they can hold up some hard work? blk posted:Thought exercise: In the PNW Subaru is going to easily be the way to go. I searched in Portland for any Subaru between 1 and 4000 with a manual transmission and there were 116 results. Nothing else is going to come close to being as easy to maintain in terms of parts availability around here, and heck, you've already got a Subaru so you have brand familiarity. Unless you're going to go proper 4wd like a Jeep or truck, it's Subaru. You just need to refine you search a bit more... Do you want to go older so that you can skip emissions and register it as a classic (and pay cheaper tabs) or do you want to go newer so that you've got fuel injection and other nice things. I saw 80's radness with the XT http://seattle.craigslist.org/skc/cto/4749937261.html And this super cheap Legacy http://portland.craigslist.org/clk/cto/4751869739.html Impreza Outback http://portland.craigslist.org/clc/cto/4715706534.html This is a little clapped out, but it's cheap and the Forester is awesome.

Horse Divorce posted:Live in Alaska? My brother's got an Eagle that's finally annoyed the poo poo out of him and he's willing to send it to a crusher for scrap. It's got a freshly-rebuilt carb, which he reminds me of constantly. I've never done a carb, but apparently rebuilding one is a torturous experience if you have no idea what you're doing. Carbs are like legos, and rebuilding one really helps you understand how the whole thing works. Also, Alaska, AMC Eagle? It in Anchorage? I may be interested.

Are you talking about these guys? http://theunbrandedbrand.com/ If so, are you saying you actually work on the car in them? I ask because they look like they're trying to be serious denim with selvedge and all that... Doesn't that make for stiff jeans (and thus lack of mobility) and do you never wash them despite them getting all dirty and sweaty and nasty from being worked in? Isn't that what dudes do with their selvedge for optimal wear marks or whatever?

I have a pair for work and a pair for going out. I was blowing out the crotch in my Levi's at work every month so I upgraded to these and they easily last me 6 months. Plus you get dope fades when you work your balls off in selvedge everyday. Unbranded is the cheaper sister company to Naked & Famous. I soak and hang dry them about once a month unless it's the summer, then it's every other week.

Oh man, I'm considering doing something really really stupid. As you may know, I drive a perfectly nice, reliable, well-kept and surprisingly fun 2000 2.2 Peugeot 406 with ~165,000km on it. But now I'm looking at a 1997 2.3 Turbo Volvo 940 wagon with ~230,000km on it. I paid 55,000dkk ($9200) for my 406 two years ago, the 940 is offered at 35,000dkk ($5850) right now. I know Danish car prices are wacky, but for comparison there they are. Actually, I'm quite telling the truth when I say "940 wagon". What I should say is "what may be the single best-kept 940 wagon in existence": It's gorgeous, and I am this close to calling the seller. Turbo manual RWD wagon, with manual windows!
