Living in a state that doesn't hate you must be nice. You couldn't get 7.62x39 AK pattern rifles even before CT passed AWB 2.0: Ban Harder. 5.45 AKs and CZ58's were cool though, the latter of which I planned on buying at some point. At least I have my ARs and a FAL.

Just had some people move in the empty house behind us that has been vacant for years. The people have three dogs, and between the dogs fighting and the owners yelling at them I'm going to go insane and kill somebody. Who the gently caress owns multiple dogs when you can't control them? All I've been hearing for the past three days is what sounds like a pack of wild dogs barking and yelping and a man and woman yelling STOP! STOP! NO! NO! what the gently caress is wrong with people and their loving dogs?

poo poo, we talking guns and cars? I just traded the 1991 Audi v8 Quattro for a 1911. At the time it still had engine problems, a cracked radiator, a brake dragging, and the neighbor had backed into it crushing the fender into the driver's door - wedging it shut.

I honestly don't get dog ownership. Some dogs are cool, but it seems like the majority of them are retarded and/or out of control, between that and having to deal with making GBS threads, pissing, shedding, chewing, digging, barking and astronomical vet bills I have no clue why anyone would want a dog. No offense to dog people but I just don't get it.

We got a dog because the wife has wanted a Corgi forever, after only having cats.

We kinda regret it: We love the dog, and he isn't badly behaved, but he is always underfoot and an attention fiend.

The problem is not dogs, the problem is dog owners. People either get dogs that are inbred to uselessness, or refuse to train it and then act all surprised when it acts out. I guess people like the idea of having a dog, but aren't concerned with the details.

There's nothing wrong with a healthy, well-trained dog that is owned by a responsible adult.

I agree, I know people with cool dogs that are nice and well behaved (one is a GIANT Great Dane), but it just seems like the majority of people are idiot dog owners with idiot dogs that can't be controlled.

I guess what I meant earlier is that if you're not going to go about dog ownership the proper way then why even bother.

I think you'll find that quite a few 'dog people' agree with that statement. Other than that any dog without severe psychological or medical issues can be controlled, usually rather easily. It's just that lovely dog owners refuse to learn how to communicate with and train a dog effectively. That and most dogs are bored/restless because people are lazy fucks who think being in the backyard is the same thing as a walk.

I really don't understand pet ownership though because I'm not a dog/pet person obviously, otherwise I'd have pets I suppose. No biggie though, whatever floats your boat.

I went down at lunch time hoping to watch some of the God drat Superbowl. I managed to watch the entirety of the halftime show, and then the kickoff of the 3rd quarter, then it was time to go back into training.

I love the reverence people have for Nissan Skylines in the US, they're not quite twelve-for-ten-cents here but they're well common. We lose our minds over, like, mid-80s Trans Ams though, so I guess it goes both ways.

That looks awesome. So how do the flaming whipped cream? Mix in booze that burns off and forms a crust/shell? But does the inside of it still have an alcohol taste (not that it'd be a bad thing, just curious)?

I don't "get" dogs but it is entirely a stupid people problem as noted. My neighbors have 3 awful, barking, making GBS threads, chasing, angry, badly trained ill tempered dogs that I hate all summer because they bark at my house for 20 to 30 minutes if I so much as look out my own windows in their line of sight.

They also have two awful, screaming, angry, badly trained ill mannered children. I made the connection and that was that, the dogs aren't the problem.

Also the super bowl is loving stupid and annoys me but it isn't quite as bad as working on a rusty 3.0L Vulcan. gently caress that thing so hard. At least the manifolds are ready to go on as soon as my M22x1.5 tap shows up to clean out the EGR bung threads.

PS gently caress EGR so hard why does anyone do this bullshit, manifold looks like a coal miners lung, stop making your engines smell their own farts god dammit

All of the above. They were the dumbasses who let an idiot PI-quality friend talk them into having an Australian Shepard in the middle of the city, but the dog is so ill trained and neurotic as to be unrecoverable at this point. The other one is a miniature american eskimo who's smart enough and a huge rear end in a top hat who likes to set the idiot dog off then watch her get in trouble.
