I've used ATF/Acetone before to unstick carbon'd up rotary engines, it works amazing for rusty bolts too. It's generally colloquially known as "Weasel Piss" in my experience.

Like the man said, don't store it in a plastic jug and it's fine.

Mainly because of the smell holy poo poo does it stink.

Hi there, would you like to try some spicy products?

Looks like I might have a job lined up back in Germany. Pays 45 grand, so I can't really complain considering my way here, but it involves living in Munich, which I'm not toooo stoked about.

Crunched a few numbers to figure out potential taxes and SOCIALISM DEDUCTIONS, and the first thing I'm doing upon touching back down in the fatherland is filing for withdrawal from the church.

I'm not paying those fuckers 50 bucks per month, get royally hosed.

Well, tell these loving yanks to employ me, then.

I've gone through more job interviews in the past 2 months than I can count, slowly lowering my expectations/standards and increasingly casting a wider net. End of the story everywhere is that no one wants an employee that is gonna gently caress off after 12 months. :lol: at the internships I was offered instead.

Why yes, I'd love to copy and do mail room work as a 34 year old guy.

Hi there, would you like to try some spicy products?

Also, another big ol' :lol: at the operating procedure and adherence to policy of some interviewers in the last couple of months.

The majority I've encountered have been pretty to-the-letter when it comes to restrictions or EEOC compliance, but there were some cases where you could tell the interviewer couldn't tell you what EEOC even stood for to save their life. I've actively suppressed any solicitation of my nationality after the early stages of job applications, and from the employers that had either met me before the interview-invitation, or somehow not inferred anything from my resume, there were some interesting/hilarious reactions.

The most common one was mild shock, usually after questions like "So, how well do you speak German?", and it dawns on them that I'm not just an army brat that spent their time growing up on USAREUR post.

But the most mind-boggling reaction came from a guy that went

"Ohhhh, so you're actually German?"
*laughs off the silliness of assuming otherwise in a kind demeanor*
*in an apologetic demeanor* "That kinda changes everything, because we can't hire internationals (sic!) anymore. But I guess this isn't the first time you've heard that, right?"
And then explaining in painful detail why it's a problem to hire non-citizens.

Like literally laying out everything the guy must have heard during the "DON'T ACTUALLY TELL THE INTERVIEWEE THIS" part of the EEOC compliance training (if at all).

There were cases where I was pretty sure the interviewer was simply an idiot and whoever gave him the job in HR/recruiting failed to properly vet/train them, but there were a few cases where I really got the impression poo poo like their behavior was systemic in the company.

Don't worry EEOC violations are rampant because so few people actually a) know about it and b) want to deal with reporting them

I used to go kayaking in Florida all the time, the alligators and snakes just made it that much more fun. Granted, I never got attacked.

One day on the Hillsborough River we counted 92 gators on a 5 mile stretch of river.

I always thought Hammerheads were pretty chill and didn't attack humans. Turns out that while that applies to the majority of their sub-species, there are a couple that apparently really like gnawing away at humans a little. :stare:

Original Scarface movie is badass.

You fucks need to join veteran support groups like the VFW or American Legion.
You probably don't need their services right now, but will definitely need their services in 20 - 30 years time.
Help support all the previous generations of military people who got hosed up by their era's incompetent & uncaring leadership.
Yearly membership costs less than a PS4 game.

Join up you fucks.

Boners was recorded before a studio audience that was alive!
My VFW post is slowly dying out and there aren't enough any new guys coming in. Most of the WWII guys are gone, and now the Korea guys are on the way out, too. On a really good day, a dozen people may show up, tops. I'm the only guy under 30 who ever shows up regularly (and I live two hours away), and there's only one other "young" GWOT guy. It's a bummer not having the manpower to actually do things as an organization (y'know, a veterans service organization). Those crusty old fucks are just like you and me, but they really are just too old for that poo poo.

I'm a little wary of the VFW after the way a lot of them behaved during Iraq, at least in my hometown. You'd think guys who served in Vietnam wouldn't be so gung ho to send younger versions of themselves off to die for nothing.
