I remember seeing stuff like this on somethingawful decades ago. Another one was removing the teeth from mouths of people laughing like the people in this image. It was also funny and slightly horrifying. Maybe someday somebody will try it again. I miss the old Internet

Do you want to watch me play Rachmaninoff on a Stradivarius?

15 years and counting. Idk if Italian leather makes the difference though. I didn’t buy them, gift from my parents. Nails aren’t the issue, wet dog is. Every year I have to buy leather dye but it doesn’t last. I’m about to get rid of them.

And that’s why I have leather couches. You don’t see the hair until you need to move the cushions, then you have little mountains to vacuum up. Or, put the cushion back down and watch your living room turn into a snow globe

41 and I’m surprised I’m not more crazy spending as much time alone as I do

It is and it isn’t. To use the onboard control to actuate the parking brake, yes, you have to use the paywalled software. But it’s a simple motor. Positive and negative. If you disconnect the connector at the parking brake and use fused jumper leads to a 12v battery, you can cause the actuator to go forward or backwards. Make sure the parking brake isn’t applied before doing anything, disconnect the cars battery, disconnect the p brake connector, jump the terminals once you figure out which polarity causes the retraction. Manually compress the caliper piston, replace the pads (and hopefully the rotors too). Pump the brake pedal as you would normally once everything is replaced, reconnect everything, and you’re good to go. in my experience this doesn’t work on ford but there’s a service procedure that doesn’t use a scanner to force the park brake into service mode. There’s always a way around dumb stuff like this

If you substitute *rich people’s yacht money" for economy, then his statement becomes correct

Piece work. Typically make $130k. Hcol (literally anywhere in Canada now) and I am poor. I have my own house, can’t really afford to fix it and it needs work. It’s small and the taxes are $6k/yr. I have all my bills paid, money set aside for school and retirement, not enough for either thing by the time they will be needed. I haven’t bought clothing for myself in 10 years. It’s what I ask for when getting gifts. Everyday the same worries, the same stresses and nothing seems to get better. Just letting the timer run out at this point. Not going to date again most likely so I’ll remain alone until my body breaks down from being an ast, then probably die from the all the unknown cancer ravaging my body because I can’t get medical care. At least I should be done before climate change gets really bad. Might live to see the water wars though.

Your momius

I have a 1973 Gibson ripper bass and a 1971 ampeg svt v9 with a late 70s 8x10 ampeg cabinet. I don’t use them daily but more than twice a week, they both still work perfectly. Just regular maintenance
