She describes Trump’s penis as “smaller than average” but “not freakishly small”.

“He knows he has an unusual penis,” Daniels writes. “It has a huge mushroom head. Like a toadstool…

“I lay there, annoyed that I was getting hosed by a guy with Yeti pubes and a dick like the mushroom character in Mario Kart...

“It may have been the least impressive sex I’d ever had, but clearly, he didn’t share that opinion.”

My b series ontario plates were starting to get pretty rough and cops will pull you over if they get much worse than this.


I qualified for free replacement with c series plates but to get those ones re-issued I would've had to get them as a vanity plate for around $300.

Worst part is they didn't let me keep them, I had to turn them in for destruction so now I have to go through life knowing that I didn't get to keep all my plates. :smith:

RIP BKSF 911, you were a great plate number and will be sorely missed.

You couldn't tell them "hey I need a new set of plates, the front one fell off after I hit a deer and I couldn't find it afterwards", meanwhile having the front plate pinned up in your garage?

Don't even elaborate 'Here's the back plate, think the front one fell off' is good enough.

I'm hoping someday I can get away with running the old plates from my Dad's car on a restored version, because they're bad rear end and have been on my wall for 25 years.

While it's kind of an arse that we don't get custom plates (and the closest we get are a bit desperate in most cases), at least we can go to any car parts shop or online seller and ask for new ones. The closest they've come to tightening it up is saying you have to prove who you are and that it's for your car, but even that isn't aggressively enforced judging by my previous purchasing experiences.

In other news, Hakodate is the perfect place to re-enact Bullit with kei cars:

UK number plates have always baffled me. Here they're treated like money, basically, forging one would be akin to printing fake money. They're made in a factory with Fort Knox levels of security.

But anyone can make a plate for any country, if they have the inclination, so you'll never stop people who want to get up to no good. Other systems with super-secret-squirrel metal pressings direct from the government or whatever don't stop any of that, they just make for more hassle for honest people.

So much so that you go "Oh I already have that?" more often than not.

Noticed on the Bongo it only has the stylized 'Bongo' on the passenger side door, driver's side doesn't get it.

Yeah... we progressed from NAS a while back...

Is this putting a screen into an empty hole, or swapping a screen? I DIY'd the latter, and it's getting the old one out and cleaning up the old adhesive that's a dick, getting the new one in with an extra person to help and the proper adhesive isn't so awful as to be an instant no.

Depends how much you'd be charged to just have someone do it for you. It's in that category of "manageable, but I'd not repeat the experience just for the fun of it".

With two cars to do, if they'll cut you a deal based on only having to come out once for both jobs, I'd pay them and be done with it.

Yeah, I'm just gonna pay. I'm sure I can do it after watching some vidjayos, but I don't have those tools and I don't want to buy them.

Not really. It's only clear if you're a huge nerd and recognize stupid visuals.and I guess somebody got mad about it.

No, just movie discussions seem to be the go to. There's a lot if anti women sentiments in comic fandom right now and I'm wondering if I got linked into that nonsense. I've gotten several posts removed for mocking racists over the last year.
