You wanna get something like this : https://www.amazon.com/Interdynamics-AF-22-Synthetic-Refrigerant-Recharge/dp/B002S70MP6 It's got the little hose you attach to the low side port of the a/c in the car. It'll tell you the pressure, and if it's low, you can add the freon in the can. If it's high, then you need to take it in because you probably have a leak. You can buy the little hose for about 10$ at a local auto zone or car shop, if you just wanna do that.

I want to get my mom a Roku, because she pays close to $200 a loving month for cable and Internet, but she doesn't want to lose the 48 hours of DVR poo poo. It's all reruns! It's the loving Big Bang Theory and cop shows and poo poo. She also doesn't know what kind of TV she has, other than 'a big one.'

My internet is down. AND My Xbox controller broke in a way I didn't even know controllers can break. So no video games or torrenting anime. I have no way to distract myself from my thoughts.

Chocolate hot cross buns are great and they've been on sale since January so I have eaten far too many of them. They will probably not be sold after Easter despite being objectively excellent so soon I will have to wait until the start of next year to get more.

I've got a date with the gf tomorrow and while it's to a restaurant I like, I kinda don't wanna go because I'm a lazy hermit of a man and kinda hate going places and doing stuff. We haven't gone anywhere for dinner in a while though (that wasn't some holiday or birthday related time), so it's probably best to go and enjoy myself. I'm just annoyed cause I gotta wear pants and the only plans I had before this involved just napping. Food should be good though, so that's a bonus. It's gonna tear the hell outta my gut though, so that kinda sucks.

A while ago, my girlfriend surprised me with the fact that she ordered me a Hydrate Spark 2.0 water bottle. It's more for fitness junkies and millennials who feel even their water bottles need to be "smart", but hey, it's the thought that counts. Step 2 - step loving two - is to twist Top Part and Bottom Part together. Triangle bit that sticks out locks into triangle indentation, fancy electronics turn on and become waterproof. Even watched an instruction video before I did anything. That was three hours ago. If either Top Part or Bottom Part have moved, I can't detect it. Maybe I hosed up and tightened it the wrong way or something, I dunno, but this fucker has beaten me. Can't wap it with the dull edge of a butter knife or run it underwater to losen it up.

I have books I want to read but I can't get beyond the first couple chapters before shelving them indefinitely and going back to playing games. Yesterday I reinstalled a game I hadn't played in years and had a blast playing it again, but I stayed up way too late and overslept this morning. We still haven't found a new place to rent and we're supposed to move out in two weeks. We do have a couple places lined up to view, but at this point we may have to settle for something less than ideal. There was one rental we looked at which is in the same complex and would have been the easiest, most perfect move... and then the owner decided he wanted to sell it instead.

I used to play FFXI and FFXIV on and off. I had to quit both when I realized how much time I was dumping into them. I do want to play through the story quests when the new FFXIV expansion drops, but I'd rather not get sucked into another ultimate weapon grind like I did before.

I love to read, and do it often, but I can really relate to wanting to set it down and get the dirty dopamine rush of video games. Going out to a quiet coffee shop with my book or bringing a coffee to the library does wonders for my concentration though, I did that today and I would have been happy if I had spent six hours there. Anyway, a FWP that constantly vexes me is trying to get delivery to my girlfriend's dorm. Although there's a road leading up to it, it's in the middle of campus and doesn't have an actual street address to enter for GPS navigation. No matter how detailed the directions I give to the restaurant, the delivery guys call me from seemingly random places around the campus.

It's 5:30am, I'm cranky, hungry, and these assholes are taking way too long to make my loving sandwich. How long does it take to put turkey on a bun? Ughhhjj this sandwich was also $10. And the bathroom is playing some weird old-timey music that puts me into a murderous rage. E: I got a cup for water but there's some red syrup dripping into the water, but the water is attached to the lemonade. What the hell. E2: the cashier is reading off this horrifically obnoxious script with everyone:  (but emphatically and with pep. So like, doesn't care/is tired but is pretending to be happy, if that makes sense)Good morning how are you doing welcome to Place.*customer orders* May I have your name sir/ma'am?*name* Thank you Mr/Ms Name (i.e. Mr Tim/Ms Mary). Are you paying cash or credit (etc)*transaction occurs* You have a great day Mr/Ms Name and thank you for coming to Place.*food comes out* Mr/Ms Name? Here you go Mr/Ms Name. Thank you have a great day Mr/Ms Name (occasionally adding "and I would like to thank you for coming to Place" again)Im hearing it every 20 seconds so ugh. Ms Thin Privilege is not having a great day, sorry lady. Thin Privilege has a new favorite as of 12:20 on Apr 16, 2017 |

How did you spend ten dollars on a turkey sandwich at 5:30 in the morning? I'm no Big City Lawyer but my workdays start super duper early and I cannot think of a single place that I could spend that much on a sandwich before sunrise even if I set my mind to it.

ToxicSlurpee posted:It's all about attention. South Park's take on this was awesome. gently caress, attention whores on Facebook. You can almost set a clock to it; every two weeks, the president of our cat rescue goes on a Pity Party Facebook rank. How she is SO SERIOUS SHE IS QUITTING AND CANT DO THIS ANYMORE. After a few hours of everyone consoling her on Facebook, offering to bring her lunch, she gets better. Till the next time. So Saturday she posted up some thing about how she is having a Sunday Clean Party at her house! Who wants to come and clean her patio and help her paint? Because she has bad knees, and doesn't work outside the rescue. So she can't do it herself. Two people volunteered. Because it's loving Easter Sunday. So she canceled, and this morning, another rant about how she can't do this anymore and just whining like mad. For the first time ever, a volunteer called her on it. Asked her to "please spare us, it's Easter Sunday." Within seconds the president replied: "I'm Jewish, not my holiday!" The next five minutes were nothing but religious arguing. How the president can't take care of animals if she can't take care of herself, and if she needs help, we need to help her! There are other holidays you can spend with family! (Seriously one person posted this, and insisted everyone go to her house and start cleaning as a surprise.) Church isn't all day! It's like watching a documentary on a cult.

Don't you guys help your friends paint their houses when they move? I always thought this was normal friend habits. I helped most of my friends move/clean/paint when they get to a new place and they helped me when I did the same. Of course I'm talking about real friends, not coworkers and acquaintances. If they are just repainting their houses then yeah do it yourself or pay someone unless you're my best friend and we drink beer while we paint. My first world problem is that I'm having twins so we're going to have 3 kids instead of 2 and that's a little unpractical. We have enough money to manage and won't really be in trouble and we both have great families that will help us a lot, but we probably won't be able to do a cool trip with them during parental leave like we did with our first because gently caress doing 8 hours in an airplane with 2 babies and a toddler. So yeah this whole twin business is inconvenient. KingColliwog has a new favorite as of 16:09 on Apr 17, 2017 |

I think it's the strangers/casual friends part of inviting people to paint your house that's weird. Yeah, of course I'll help a friend paint their house or move or whatever, and of course they'll provide beer and food and reciprocate. A painting party is as weird as a moving party. E: my coffee is too hot and I don't have enough time to let it cool appropriately.

At least one Starbucks at every terminal (read: decent coffee and hot, unsweetened, tea), healthy food (granted it's still $10), and it's clean and modern. Even the lovely little airports are nice. And there's no weird racism (e: there is racism but it isn't as pronounced like yes Sir poo poo I heard down there). This also applies to non-airport places in general. gently caress the South.

Being whined to paint a perfectly able-bodied woman's house while she 'supervises' and chatters with other 'painters' who never lift a brush is not. The woman in question did post again and state she got food poisoning from a McDonald's salad, and THAT was why she was so upset. Cue several people urging her never to eat 'that slop,' and when she wants a good meal, they'll bring it over! She has also started asking for nice leather furniture as a donation, because hers is scratched to hell, but she wants leather only. Seriously, bitch would whine about the color fire extinguisher putting her out!

The Pizza Hut dude on the phone screwed up my order (and I didn't pay attention to the total charge that would've raised my eyebrows), but I wanted a single order (I think it's six) of bread sticks. Nope, I got the family size one that's an entire box of em. I love Pizza Hut breadsticks, but not that much, and even between me and my partner, half of them will inevitably go stale.

I ordered pizza online a few days ago, because I'm a goon and don't have to talk to people that way. More importantly, it's easier to check the order for accuracy and I can pay by credit easily. Problem is, the delivery person walked straight past my apartment (seriously there's no way to avoid walking past it because it's right by the stairs and elevator) and attempted to deliver to my neighbor, two doors down. Thankfully this particular neighbor is a good friend and directed them to the right place but come oooon. There were also out of one side dish that I ordered and didn't bother to tell me until the delivery person got there. <  >
