I woke up to a dog barfing next to the bed, and my in laws landing in 4 hours. Trade you Sidenote, but Safeway kona blend coffee is loving delicious for the price. Trying to stop drinking so many energy drinks and went back to coffee, picked this up cause it's like 6 bucks and yum.

I hate posting stuff to sell online. CL, SA Mart, you name it. Now I'm going to obsessively refresh my email and the forums to see if there's any response. GIMME ALL YOUR drat MONEY.

I just got a sweet set of 16x7 alloy wheels for $75 on Craigslist from some nice old man. Had to drive 45 minutes but gently caress it, worth it.

meatpimp posted:There is good content on reddit and those of you that disavow it completely are either bandwagoning or myopic. Yes, there's a lot of poo poo on reddit but... there's a lot of poo poo in the SA forums too, even aside from my posting. Who gives a gently caress when its truly brain destroying to read? I literally cant understand why anyone puts up with such a lousy layout for a second. I dont care if there is any good content and frankly I dispute there is anything worthwhile esp given I could find it much easier in places that are not layed out by morons.

Any common problems/failures? I owned one for... two years I think? Back in 2006/2007. I managed a cheap buy on TRDs full suspension package and installed super lightweight 15s, a full PPE exhaust and some fancy intake tube. I then somehow convinced my wife to road trip it with me from Seattle to LA and while it wasn't the most comfortable car, driving with speed through the mountains of southern Oregon and Northern California at 7am in the morning as the sun came up is something I'll remember for the rest of my life. Condition of the precats is the biggest problem area that I remember as there was an issue in early years (<03 I think) where they liked to disintegrate and get sucked into the engine causing oil consumption and eventually kablamo. Ignorance of the issue in the seller would be a red flag IMO and I think many early engines were replaced under warranty. Otherwise, enjoy your great handling, but gutless midship! Consider getting appropriate MRS badges because they're JDM cool. If it's really cheap you could look at a 2ZZ swap which should have been an option in the first place. Back then spyderchat had the most reference info, though I think it was a bit of a cesspool.

Come in for lunch, it's going to be crazy busy they said. We'll even give you a $25 gas card, they said. Welp, morning dispatcher was an hour late to work. Not that it would have mattered much, I've only had 3 orders since 11 (and somehow I'm already 2 cities away from home). Been sitting in my car for the past 30 minutes picking at a bowl I grabbed from Chipotle. At least it's a really nice day to be out!

Going back a few pages, but some of the best fun I have had driving was hammering the poo poo out of my first car, a 1.6 toyota carina e. I know I wrung every last bit out of that car and it could do no faster, and I got a great feel for how much give I could get before it went wild. If I tried that in the a4 I would wrap it round a tree, or a lamp-post or both within a day. Cakefool posted:I occasionally get a thing about making a cool looking camper from an old van, but even beyond-kevbarlas-levels-of-rusty old commercials are stupid money sadly. It's a future plan for me and the missis, and I follow a few FB groups for people making/refurbing campers and caravans- when you are stripping the whole thing apart, spending a few days learning to grind out and weld up bits seems routine- people make some amazing stuff by getting a transit/transporter/sprinter and spending a few months on it, better looking than most commercial vans. That said, most people seem to wait for fleet auctions of delivery vans or ambulances- anything that might have been looked after a bit, rather than a plumbers old transit he simply let rust out.

I've actually seen one of the vans I read about there in real life, chatted with the guy and he said the only thing he'd change would be starting with something fancier than an iveco, put an old cab on a modern chassis.

PaintVagrant posted:Bummer. Surprising nobody has written a good "phone to forums" app or some equivalent. The various imgur apps are garbage. My solution is this: code:
Someone should badger whoever makes the Awful app into adding direct imgur upload / pasting of that bbcode as a feature. cat terrist/interceptor: Hmm. Looks like it'd be about two hours to where you are, and i'm completely knackered from yesterday there is good news though, we're probably going to buy a holiday house around here (so i'll be up more often)

Apologies for the double post... It looks like Awful already has some form of image upload capability. Let's see how that goes. E: Okay, it just links direct to hi-rez with a timg tag. Womp womp. Who develops this app anyway? They've already added the upload-to-imgur feature, changing how it pastes the bbcode shouldn't be too hard. For those of you who don't know it can even do this, compose a post, tap on the text area like you want to copy or paste, then tap on the little arrow on the right. One of the options should now be [img]. It'll let you pick a photo from your on-iPhone library (or take a photo), upload it, and [timg] it for you. Even without my preferred bbcode this is pretty useful. literally a fish fucked around with this message at 22:51 on Feb 7, 2016 |

That is better than doing it manually for sure. Good catch, I guess I need to use the awful app more often now.

I have an affinity for cheap canned meat despite how bad I know it is for you. Spam, sardines, canned shredded chicken, etc. Underwood's roast beef spread plus some sharp rear end cheddar makes a drat good lunch sandwich even if it looks like cat food.
