The LG that was in my house when I bought it has made horrendous clunking compressor sounds the entire time I've owned it. I've been waiting for it to die, but it just won't.

Occasionally it seems like it gets up a real head of pissed-off and has this one single loud bang-clunk, but then it fires up again just after I get excited about fridge shopping.

Does anyone have any experience in renting a performance car in Germany? I would love to take a Porsche up into the alps for a day when I visit Munich but I don't know how car rentals work there or if it's worth the time/effort when I could just take a train.

Could be kitchen aide. That's what most my stuff is now, seems reasonably well put together but I literally tried finding the best built entry model I could find. I'm not planning on staying in my place more then another year or two

GE is the worst. My place was all GE when I moved in and the design of everything was just garbage. I'm still half expecting my dryer to come flying off the wall one of these days because it can't handle doing my bed sheets without being unbalanced as gently caress.

Kitchenaid is owned by Whirlpool now as well. Most of the large appliances you can find in the US will be Whirlpool (Maytag, Kitchenaid, Amana) or Electrolux (GE, Tappan, many others).

GE has been pretty sturdy for me. We have a ~13 year old GE Monogram ice maker at the moment, a 15 year old GE stove (admittedly, a very basic gas cooktop), and most apartments I've lived in had 20+ year old GE appliances that just kept trucking along. Granted, that was when GE was GE; Electrolux bought their appliance division in 2014.

Yeah to be fair the GE stuff in my condo came with the unit and was likely bought on cost grounds. It more a frustration at the contempt the designers have for their products.

When I was working on my dishwasher it literally looked like somebody did a hit of meth, slapped it together in 45 minutes and thought "that'll get it done". There's no pride in products anymore, whenever I see a really old appliance I get the feeling somebody was hard at work trying to create something they'd want in their home.

My first bike was a pink and purple CBR. We were broke at the time so I had a plaid jansport backpack and i was wearing a teal as gently caress goodwill hoodie. Some kids rolled up next to me at a light in a RX8 and yelled "Nice bike human being!"


In regards to products made by meth heads, I used to work at the Jeld-Wen plant in Vermont and we had your typical redneck tweaker working there. Whenever we had a door that was in pretty questionable shape to send out he would say "gently caress man, can't see it from my house." and out it would go.

I honestly am not sure whether Reagan & Thatcher exporting all of their respective countries' manufacturing jobs to the 3rd world which resulted in everyone's dishwasher sucking a fat dick now because why would a chinese guy making $1 a day give a gently caress, really, or if the invention and subsequent deployment of teal to every new sports franchise for 20 years was the worst thing that happened in the years 1980-2010

Given how many fucks the average unionised manufacturing-sector worker gave throughout much of the seventies, such things happening shortly afterwards should baffle no-one.

Seriously, it's not worth the effort.

Also, phone postin' from my hotel i'm staying in for the next few days. Reeks of old cigarettes, but they have free WiFi and Dominoes room service so it's not too bad.

Also, there's a Hardee's a short drive away. Got to try that new Most American burger with hotdogs + chips on it along with your typical burger toppings... surprisingly good and insanely filling.

I used to be this, way, now i prefer tasting the different peppers rather than just the heat. One of my favorite is dairy queen's buffalo sauce, which from what i understand is no longer available in commie america because of obamacare.

From what i can tell, it's cayenne and habanero, and at least some other pepper becuse i've never been able to match it on my own.

Meet Rosie. I wasnt looking at picking up another cat, but she just sort of dropped into my lap. The owner is an old lady who just got worse with her dementia, and the lady's granddaughter is trying to rehome her. She was described as a big ball of anxiety and fear, and totally antisocial because she was too afraid of anything. I went to look into her anyways after finding out she was at the end of the road in boarding with the caretakers having no idea what to do with her, and she'd been there a while and was getting more anxious due to the environment.

All I did was walk in, put my hand out after sitting, and just sit there. And waited. And she came out to me, and after sniffing me briefly she started headbutting, flopped over, and made biscuits into the towel. The lady I met has never seen her do that before in her life, and I noticed out of the corner of my eye the entire staff at the boarding place/vet was actually watching me pet her. After I latched her back up, I went out and the whole vet crew was saying they couldnt believe I was pettinng her at all, she normally cowers and tries to run.

She comes home tomorrow.
