Eh, I liked the "are we the baddies?" angle of Rogue One, but I agree that it was pretty uninteresting. Force Awakens was supposed to let people know that Star Wars doesn't have to suck, and it succeeded in that by basically remaking A New Hope

90 loving percent humidity? Check. So humid that you have fog when it's 95 and sunny? Check. Heat index of 107? Check. Car with broken ac? Check. Restaurant runs out of bottled water and soft drinks and puts in an order with Amazon instead of the manager driving to Walmart?   Double loving che  I did find out the Saturd will still do highway speeds with 600 pounds (not counting my fatass, so 800 pounds counting me) of crap in it, but it doesn't like those speeds if you think about using 5th

My wife and I rely on prime now so loving much. I don't know what we would do without it at this point. That, and uber eats. We moved from a sort-of rural area to the burbs in January. From not being able to get pizza delivered to being able to get deodorant and a carton of ice cream in two hours.

My main source of income is Prime Now, secondary is Uber Eats.  I do Uber Eats at random; I've been active with them long enough that I qualify for instant pay, so I basically sign in when I need some quick cash (they do a credit to my debit card when I cash out). They cover a lot of areas that nobody else covers too; I'll often go online after finishing an Amazon route that leaves me in the sticks. Occasionally I get kidnapped by, say, a McDonalds in the middle of a small town an hour away (which is fine with me.. they're short trips, so I don't make a lot per trip, but they're generally back to back for as long as I want to work).(I'm also active with GrubHub and DoorDash, but it's been ages since I actually signed in to DD, and my GH delivery area begins about 20 minutes away) I'm far enough out that my zipcode is the last one (going east) that Prime Now delivers to in DFW, I'm about a mile and a half inside the service area. Uber Eats started serving my area a few months ago; none of the other delivery services cover my area. There's a few pizza places and Chinese places that deliver to me, outside of that if I want food delivered, it has to be via Uber Eats. 99% of the time I like doing Prime Now deliveries. It's pretty decent money for a delivery gig, I get to drive around all day, and for the most part it's fairly low stress (aside from having to deliver everything on time AND make it back to the warehouse on time for the next shift - normally that's not much of an issue so long as the warehouse isn't backed up). Been doing Prime Now for a little over a year and a half, but I didn't make it my full time job until early last year. e: I'm kind of on the border of 'burb and sticks. My apartment is on a 2 lane road, but right off of a major highway. Go 2 miles southeast or northwest and you're on farms. I'm barely (by about a mile and a half) inside of Dallas county. Go east-ish and you're in a pretty healthy smaller city (but it's far enough out to not be considered a suburb.. back when landlines were a thing, calling someone there would have been a long distance call), go beyond that city and it's sticks. randomidiot fucked around with this message at 10:12 on May 28, 2017 |

If I need to reference a thread I usually end up using the Maryland metrics website. It was eye-searing yellow until I figured out how to make my browser display that exact shade of yellow as a muted grey. Funny how you latch onto particular websites as data sources. Find out this morning a friend husband is in our local hospital, she's 3 hours away with 2 kids and can't drive, going spare with worry. As soon as we found out we offered to go see him today and deliver the essentials and put them up for the week when she gets a train down. Hope he's good but reading between the lines I think he's here to see a spinal specialist

If they have Amazon prime, tumbleleaf is a pro pick. It's a super mellow Jim Henson-like animation show. Every time we put it on all the kids are totally hypnotized by it.

I checked out the truck today, turns out it has 28k miles and he's selling it cheap because he's an old man who can't drive and there are some dings, scratches, and missing parts from various run ins with trees that he's had   He's going to get a quote for how much it'd cost to fix and send me the specs for me to KBB then we'll get a price sorted out with my Saturn for trade included. I'm guessing I'll get it for $15k-25k which is still an insane deal

Based on the options apparent I guessed it is probably an SLE which kbb gives a median value of over $40k. You are stealing from that old man.
