I would like to know how the conversation with Mrs. Tremek went.

"Honey, can we have a man I know from the internet live in a pop-up camper on our driveway for a period of time?"

On her own initiative, my wife offered to let an ex of mine move into our house for a while if it would help her get out of the abusive relationship she's in. I'd imagine if I just explained the whole story to my wife she'd probably invite him unbidden :shrug:

She's been supportive of finding ways to help Dave's situation get better. Neither one of us wanted to see Dave get shanked by a hobo. Call me Kenny Rogers. We have been burned by helping miscreants before but Dave's been a perfect gentleman thus far.

I guess it depends - is Tremek's wife a goon/familiar with the Saga of Dave? Because I can't see her putting up too much of a fight. He's a weird internet stranger but he's proven himself (mostly) harmless...

...the fire thing, though. I think I'd ban open flames near the methane source too.

(loving finally got around to reading and catching up with this new thread! Hostel adventures, gently caress yes)

COOL DICK LUKE posted:

Well, the first few days I was here I spent in a motel, because there were concerns :v:

Granted, they have young kids and she knew about why I was getting the gently caress out of dodge, so there was definitely reasons on top of an unfinished house remodel and I dont hold it against her at all for being cautious

That was 80% about not having anywhere indoors for you to crash before you got your trailer, and then 20% making sure you're not gonna eat a kid or something. 3 little kids, WFH, remodeling hell, all this contributes to a lot of chaos around here, and I'm a poo poo human if I'm not looking out for family first.

PS polite reminder plz still do not eat kids/cat/dags, coyotes ok however

For a no cost version of this if you have a Pet Co anywhere nearby check their dumpster on occasion. When they get fish delivered the coolers the come in are wrapped in the stuff.

To be fair I think my oldest was encouraging him to eat the cat last night. We kind of have a 21st century Alf thing going on here. I figure my 6 year old knows someone that can't back down from a dare when he sees it.

I see nothing but good things happening tomorrow when we work on my truck. Nothing could possibly go awry.

Nothing will go wrong...right, Dave? You PROMISE nothing will reach flash point?

Also: my mechanic busted his hand up a bit, so are you cool helping with the tie-rod swap?

It's a paltry gasoline engine.

Didn't the Jeep leak gasoline clear cross-country until it made it to Nebraska?

Also, I could have sworn there was a picture of Dave out on the sidewalk emptying the gas tank of the Jetta (??) into a bucket. Did that happen or have I inhaled too much gasoline myself at this point?

True. The real danger is in casually lighting up a new one. "No Smoking" is easier to fit on a sign than "Please don't light up a new cigarette."

They are like pouches a foot and a half square maybe but you can cut the side seams and have a flat sheet or leave it doubled up.
