realtalk can anyone recommend a good weed whacker that runs on battery? my wife hates using the 2-stroke i have (and i do too) and if i could find a good lightweight one for her birthday she'd be happy

I like Ryobi's but I don't have 18,000 acres to deal with and we already have all Ryobi tools so it's nice being able to use the same batteries for everything.

Dude I like mowing as much as the next dad, but I'm sick of 1/3 of an acre. Takes me an hour and that's just about too much, only issue is i have a fence that would make anything but a zero turn a nightmare and don't want to spend money on the riding mower. Six hours. gently caress that.

also non-gas-powered weed whackers = terrible

idk man i like mowing

i'd usually stretch it out over two days but i've done the all-in-one more than once

i take a lot a breaks and drink water and poo poo and lot of times my wife's asking me to move bags of soil or help her plan out her garden so im not trying to say that im autistic sperglord mowing bc thats dishonest, it's just what im doing when not actively engaged in other stuff around the yard at the time. it gets done eventually.

I've got the Ryobi 18v which fits my other cordless tools, but my lawn is smaller.

Gonna take some vacation time in western Wyoming when that eclipse happens in late August. Don't know quite yet where I'm going to watch it from, probably southern Yellowstone or Grand Teton. Either way, Frank, a friend and I are gonna chill for four days in the woods.

Nope. Path arcs from washington to florida, I think. That far south might see a touch of the eclipse, but nowhere near total. The path of totality is something like 70 miles wide.

if you couldn't get pants in exactly your desired size would you rather get an inch on the waist or two inches on the length

or just wait till they're back in stock

Inch on the waist. You can hide that. But long pants can look sloppy or drag.

Inch for waist. Winter will come around again eventually, and thanksgiving requires the extra slack.

Rolling your pants isn't that big of deal and neither is wearing a belt.

Gets pants tailored. We're all adults with jobs here. It's like 10-12 bucks to have an inch or so taken off of some new pants.

Order from Amazon.
If that doesn't work go 1" on the waist and have them brought in.
Don't wear baggy pants, you have too good of a job to look like a slob.
Problem with starting with too long pants is that even when you have them hemmed the crotch is still gonna bag out a little.

yep, It was a supported ride but I only stopped at mile 90 to fill up my water bottles, carried enough energy bars and water to get me that far.. Realized I wasn't going to be top 10 so said gently caress it and stopped to get water.

Some of us like the extra room for the boys to swing around in.

My rear end ran away when I dropped below 200 pounds again. My belts are barely useful but I'm not ready to commit to full Gallager mode and rock suspenders. I'll just keep half-mooning people and retightening my belt.
