Tusen Takk posted:So I just saw a Focus RS in the wild with a manufacturer plate. I didn't know they were going to be sold here Yes, they are, but I thought I had read that there was only one "production model" floating around in painter's tape blue and that it was at the New York auto show right now. What color was it?

Do you guys ever get too excited about a car? (which as mentioned above this is the last gen RS, not the upcoming one) I seriously just came back to this thread to check if TT had responded because I'm excited about a car that I won't even have the opportunity to pay more than MSRP for until like a year from now and longer if I manage to stay sane and not overpay just to get it sooner. I should probably just make a different bad decision and buy a 997 or an impossible to find reasonably priced manual e9x M3 sedan. Or remodel my kitchen since I spend more time working on my house than my cars. OK, enough procrastinating today, time to go pressure wash the patio and mow the lawn.

I have problems, awesome lambo in the foreground and my eyes go right to the dormer on the house in the background because I want to redo mine to be that style (though wider). Dang, it looks like that place has a front porch too! BTW, if you're still feeling unsure about leather cleaner you can always just drop by and try out my lexol or griots on a spot. We're like 15-20 minutes away from each other.

Comrade Flynn posted:Yeah, we have a front porch, two back porches and the best part: Dang, nice. That view (well, a similar one) is why I want to redo the dormer out the back of my house at some point as currently the best viewing space is a 36x48 window (so it's only a "sweeping" view if you're holding a broom ). I've seen a few setups recently with nesting sliding windows that could make for a pretty awesome master bedroom and upstairs landing. I'm about the same distance from the water as you too

Tide posted:Just venting. If it makes you feel any better tonight I got home from work to find the back door open. It was a nice day so my first thought went to "hey the wife, kids and dogs are spending time outside on the porch since I've been busting my rear end to clean it all up with the pressure washer and the patio furniture is out now, let's chill out!" Nope. They were outside and evidently the chill idea above had been the plan, but my 4 year old son had decided to take a poo poo outside instead of inside in the toilet (as he's known how to do for well over a year now). My wife is trying to clean him up and my loving DOGS ARE EATING MY SONS FRESH poo poo So yes, I'm having a beer with dinner tonight and I may have another when I'm done with that.

leica posted:New Blipshift shirt: I don't get it, what am I missing? Welcome back LobsterboyX! Congrats on the new job ExplodingSims! STR, is there not an outpatient or urgent care option in your area you can go to for help? It's good you're thinking about getting help, but I worry about the financial impact it will have to you if you go to the hospital. Also, have you considered shaking up your life, like maybe leaving Texas to try to break yourself of the pattern?

Siochain posted:Hooray for wet basements. Sorry to hear that man. I've been there too. Check out Radonseal, which is sealer that permeates cement and helps with water. Then consider Drylock over the top. You may just need to buckle down though and do an interior french drain and water activated sump pump. Or a french drain outside. I have all of the above .

DICKPOCALYPSE NOW posted:Pretty brave to admit out loud to readin star wars EU Cat Terrist posted:Why would you subject yourself to that kind of mental abuse? The EU is just sooooooooo bad Taco Box posted:It can be, but the Jedi Search trilogy is the fuckin poo poo. So are Thrawn trilogy and the duology also written by Timothy Zahn. I've read I think the entire EU and I'm totally the coolest dude I know. Sometimes I enjoy drinking Rainier beer (Northwest PBR), or I eat cake from a boxed mix. Sometimes it's nice to not have to think hard and just enjoy some light fiction. Jedi Search Triology is up next, and then I need to pick up the Thrawn trilogy. While I'm sharing, I also enjoyed the Green Lantern movie with Ryan Reynolds, which I realize is a nearly capital offense. I'm ready for my public stoning AI.

Das Volk posted:Friday is my good day. I could pay my credit card off or buy a Focus RS perhaps being responsible is the answer. Last I heard all you could get was an allocation number for a couple hundred? I need to find a local Ford dealer I like. edit: looks like the allocation info I heard about is likely bullshit Mat_Drinks fucked around with this message at 17:47 on Apr 26, 2015 |
