Good lord, this shower install has turned into a loving oval office wagon and a half. I am trying to get drywall to match up and of course nothing matches up. so my day was spend using shims, screwing and unscrewing the same god drat piece of dry wall just to try to attempt to get things to line up, only to bust a hole in another piece of drywall.

gently caress it, its getting copious amounts of drywall compound and sanding it.

its green board.

its just the pain in the dick of getting every thing to match up because the shower is a retrofit. And of course, they cobbled together every thing when they did it, so nothing is matching correctly.

Yes, gently caress the humidity. You're lucky it's not hot (not kidding, this is a bit warm for October, but still pretty cool)
Onramps depend on where you are. Most of the major highways have nice long ones, but I know exactly what you're talking about.
No. We're second only to Oz in giant death bugs.

Well, to do it properly, that one waffle should have covered and entire standard dinner plate, used an entire stick of butter, and a quart of syrup. Everything's bigger!

He's from AZ, he knows what heat is - it's just that moisture in the air confuses and frightens us. I've been sweating my balls off in ~70 degree weather in the midwest thanks to humidity before.

Cane syrup isn't bad as long as you use it sparingly. I'm picturing this waffle doused in that watery generic butter flavored syrup.

Hey Rhyno; is the supergirl show going to be any good? DC has been doing pretty good stuff with their TV shows and I see its got that berlanti dude involved. I love Arrow and Flash, I'm wondering if supergirl was worth giving a try. Generally CBS is pretty poo poo for shows (BBT, 2.5 manchildren)

I barely handle it when it's a week. Two is killing me. I have zero idea how people go longer.

One of these days I need to record him. He runs around the house in his announcer voice going "IT'S JOOOOOOOOHN CENA!", pile drives a pillow then playing his theme song on the billion interments I have in the house for him. It's loving hilarious.

Edit: forgot, after the theme song be yells REKT M8 then runs off. He's a walking meme.

In general or after it stranded me two days in a row? :v:

Found a chafed ground wire in the headlight bucket, where the shop who replaced my throttle cable didn't tuck it correctly. Two hours of bending and twisting wires and I found a spot about 1/64" chafed, perfectly in contact with a piece of metal.

Spliced in a new run and bike is fine, rode ~150 miles today with no issue.

And eh. SD is amazing, but it was suuuuuper uncomfortable on the highway. The little fins on the headlight directed all the air directly into my throat. But Jesus it was fun. S1000R, however....

Same style as the Duke, little more sportbike feeling. Faster, but less frantic/fun feeling. The SD felt like a puppy that just wanted to make me happy, and was OH MY GOD LETS DO THIS SEE SEE ITS FUN WE'RE HAVING FUN!

The S1000R was more "ah yes, I can do that. Would you care for a cup of tea? Perhaps a bratwurst?" Plus it didn't feel like an air spirit was choking the life out of me in a comfortable seating position.

If I was a bit shorter or a bit taller, it would be perfection.

And honestly, I trust not dying more on a bike than I do in a Chrysler product :v:

I don't think so, we have a bunch of bespoke artisanal breweries up in GR so we don't have a huge out of state selection in most stores

I think my prices are mostly party store prices because at Meijer it's a lot cheaper but Meijer is farther away

Like when I buy New Amsterdam Gin it's $22.99 for a 1.5L or $23.99 for a fifth of Bombay Sapphire at Meijer so that's kind of reasonable for liquor
