If he leaves it overnight the best option is to wake him up by tossing it onto his sleeping body.

All unemployed goons should head to Detroit because we can't fill IT jobs nearly as fast as we need em

that's because everybody who goes to Detroit gets dead.

At least your possession ruiners are cute kids that can learn from this. My rear end in a top hat cat wrecks poo poo and don't give a gently caress.

Mam I know I'm fat, but apparently "medically normal" weight for someone my 6'5" height is 150 to 200lb? I'm pretty sure I'd look like a stick figure at that weight.

I'm 5'8" and currently hovering around 200lbs and the Doc said I'm 30lbs overweight,

I'm back on the fitness wagon having completely changed my diet, cut all sugars and hit the elliptical as often as I can. Hell I'd be on it right now if any of my workout gear wasn't sopping wet.

Did Emma Watson actually sing her own parts? Because they were painfully autotuned.

The more I dwell on it the more I disliked the film.

I found a walmart gift card in my glovebox that had a $47 balance on it (i have no idea where it came from) so i went and picked up a Gold's Gym incline bench. Did a few basic workouts on it and I clearly need more than a simple bench so it's getting packed up and returned tomorrow. I have $150 in Amazon GCs from Christmas still so I'm gonna just buy a full bench set that has decent reviews.

If you or someone you know has a Costco membership they just rolled out a really nice bench with the summer seasonal stuff for $60, might be worth checking out.

Ooooh, didn't even think of checking there!

I bought a house in an HOA neighbourhood but it's $25/YEAR and the hardest rule is "no big sheds in your back yard"

But 5 or 6 little sheds would be fine right

My mom's HOA is a bunch of dicks. I went over to do an oil change in one of their cars and just as I was buttoning things up somebody showed up to tell me that all auto work has to be done in the garage with the door shut.

So if you're checking transmission fluid or setting timing or tuning a carb you're expected to run the engine in an enclosed space? Sounds like they're on the hook for any carbon monoxide asphyxiation in that case.

I'm kidding and not yet a homeowner and too poor to buy into an HOA neighborhood but...tell them to gently caress off? Especially if you're done with whatever work you're doing.

WHen I lived there 15 years ago I was a rotten poo poo and it my antics caused my parents to get plenty of complaints. So these days I don't want to make her life hard.

But as soon as she sells that house I will have my revenge.

After I sent back the X220 with the broken screen (such a goddamn shame), I ordered a slightly less expensive T420 from a different site. It just arrived today, and it's pretty good.

Sure, there is a tiny bit of wear and tear, I had to shim the keyboard to keep it from flexing (known issue for pre-chiclet Thinkpad keyboards) and the hinge is only like 95% tight (after 5-6 years of use, mind). But it cost less than a decent Chromebook, it still does a solid 5+ hours on the battery and it runs Linux Mint flawlessly.

I'm probably never going to buy a new laptop ever again, unless I win the lottery or something.

I'm all about cheap poo poo these days. Refurbed computers, chinese cell phones etc. Any vehicle I buy from here on out is gonna be cheap as hell unless I win a scratch off ticket.

I'm hitting this point in some regards. It helps that "cheap" is hitting the "good enough" tier. My Nexus 6 is closing in on being a three-year-old design, but the only real problems I have with it are due to aging of the battery. Part of me wants a Pixel XL (or whatever replaces it soon) but part of me would rather spend half as much for something that is as close as possible to a newer version of the Nexus 6.

I grabbed one of those $50 BLU phones and it's pretty great.

I have a Nexus 5X sitting here that I haven't used in months. I dropped it and while it didn't break I became incredibly paranoid that I would break it which is why I went to a chinesium phone.
