So some 10 year old - or a castrado twenty something - has my wife's former number. The little poo poo has been loving with anyone that has accidentally texted or called him since he got the number; being rude, cursing, name calling, threatening, etc... First of all, why the gently caress does a ten year old have a phone? Second of all what should I do about this? What would you do?

Sup May buddys? I'm getting geared up to move. Just took a small load of stuff over to the in-laws, I bought a used Wii U on ebay (because there aren't any games for the switch yet), and I'm making strides on getting this CB400 running so I can ship out to a fellow goon on the opposite side of the country. I'm also looking to get a trailer so I don't have to pay someone to move me. I think taking a load of stuff up with us every time we visit the wife's parents is much more preferred than paying someone to gently caress up my walls and furniture again. Also I'd get a trailer out of it so that's good. You guys have any recommendations on trailers? Brands? Also, my buddy was robbed at gunpoint yesterday in Minneapolis, which prompted him to ask me which gun to get. He's fully aware that carrying, likely wouldn't have prevented what happened, nor would he even have brought his gun in this case anyway since he was flying carry-on only. No-the-less it's a reminder that he wants a gun. He wants a .380 for conceal. I recommended the Glock 42 and Ruger LCP. You all have any other suggestions? I tried to get him to get a Kimber but I think he's on a budget of <$500 Also, I just noticed that Kimber doesn't have their Solo on the website anymore? WTF it was such a pretty pistol! e: http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2016/12/30/kimber-solo-is-out-the-micro-9-is-in/ GODDAMNIT KIMBER NOOOOOOOOOO! IT WAS SO PRETTY!

At my wedding, I cracked 400 glowsticks and stuffed them up my sleeves when Bohemian Rhapsody started playing. When the guitars kicked in, I did the swirling arms air guitar move and the glowsticks flung wildly out my sleeve like bullets from a machine gun.

They just announced pricing for their solar roof shingles... $21 per square FOOT for a 35% solar panel house, they say that homes could go to 70% solar panel, so the price could nearly double. I mean, people pay $50/sqft for floors... I don't see why those same people wouldn't consider spending half as much on a money making roof.

'Carry On' like that one line from the Queen song Bohemian Rhapsody. Also because I'll get to say meet my trailer, Queen. Trailer Queen. get it? Because motorcycles! Hhahahahaha. Okay i'm done.

I also spent 4 hours at the DMV this morning. They somehow managed to get someone else's name and address on my new trailer's title and took their sweet time figuring out how to remedy it. They didn't have full sized trailer plates, only mini, and told me that there is no possible way to get novelty plates for a trailer which I'm pretty sure is incorrect.

Rhyno posted:Tell me about garage door insulation kits. Am I wasting my time thinking I can move my exercise gear into the garage and get the temp to stay around 50 in the winter? depends. If your walls don't have insulation then it won't do poo poo. It'll make a bit of difference if they are. Not the difference between -20 and 50 but it helps a noticeable bit. On the plus side it also cuts down on noise. More than doubly so if you get a bunch of butyl sheets stuck all over the door first. Is the door metal or wood?

MrChips posted:And for another thing, I'm really not liking a lot of these sour beers that are becoming trendy. Some of them are OK, but the overwhelming majority of them just taste vile. I thought sours just weren't my thing because I'd disliked pretty much every one I tried. Turns out I just don't like bad sours. Since we're on the beer subject: is anyone hopping on this kolsch trend? I see people talking about it all over the place. It seems like the pendulum is swinging the other way?

Bajaha posted:What was the reason for the brand new car? Was it a mutual decision? I totally understand how frustrating it is when something you care about is treated like crap and ends up all beat up, no longer new. It sounds more like ignorance than anything else. At least it's not malicious. My wife bought herself a new car "because she deserved it, and doesn't want anyone elses hand-me-downs" (meanwhile I have never owned a new ~anything~)." She then proceeded to hit 2 gas station bollards, a parked car, a not parked car, a wall, a shelf, another wall, and god only knows what but I hope it was already dead. The next day someone scratched her door and she LOST HER loving MIND. A few weeks ago she rear ended someone and totaled it. We didn't even wait for the insurance money, we just went out and bought her ANOTHER brand new Rav4 It's not like she wants to hurt her car. It's just that she's incapable of being a good car owner. Some people are just bad people, but we love them anyway. At least now her car will slam on the brakes for her when she fucks up.

Before everyone gets their rear end on their shoulders about "BUT SOMEONE ELSES gently caress UP SHOULDN'T AFFECT MY RATES..." Someone hit my sisters parked car. Her rates went up significantly when she renewed. I got rear ended at a stop sign. My rates went up. I got rear ended in traffic. My rates went up. I got side swiped when I was parallel parked on the street. My rates went up. Some doofus managed to wreck into the rear of my wife's Rav4 while she was parked in a spot. Her rates went up when she renewed. (She later totaled that vehicle and somehow her rates didn't go up that time ) Olympic Mathlete posted:How is that even possible?

Somewhat Heroic posted:They are the worst. After my car was rear ended and totaled ten years ago I had such an awful experience with them as soon as I got my payout I bailed. I have been with Allstate since. They are more expensive but their service (when needed) has been outstanding. I have had something like 4 or 5 different agents (insurance biz is rough y'all). I have heard horrible experiences with Geico, Progressive, etc. I think we have a megathread on Insurance here in AI usually hovering around the first few pages. I loved allstate. The only reason I switched to Geico was because my agent misunderstood me and quoted me for my 2011 F150 Ecoboost AAAAAAAND my 2002 Explorer Sport Trac, when I was replacing one with the other. Thinking that the price was 2x what my Geico quote was, I switched. It wasn't until I talked to him again after I had switched that the misunderstanding was cleared up. Oh well, sorry Chris. The only reason I didn't switch back was because they cancelled my roadside assistance at the same time even though I had paid up-front for a whole 'nother year. When I went to use it to have my wife's car towed home, and couldn't, I was pissed.
