  • Bingo! You can get a BT adapter for $7 on eBay. Torque is the absolute killer app. I’m stunned something so complete and customizable is free, a few bucks for the full version. I suck at mechanics, but that has saved my butt a time or two.

    If you own a car that was made in the last several decades, it has the OBDII connector under the steering wheel and openly accessible. You just plug the adapter in and connect to your phone. The adapter and app are every bit as important to me as a jack, lug wrench and tire pump. No one should be without for a measly $20.

    My wife’s car occasionally throws an error that kills the cruise control. She can clear the error code while I’m driving! If you have ever had a mysterious check engine light, you can see exactly what it means.


  • I’m quite liberal, but holy shit their views on guns are ignorant. “We only want the cops and rich people armed!” The fuck?!

    Why do they think the billionaire owned media bangs so hard against AR-15s? Ya know, the most effective antipersonnel rifle in existence? Because they know we can fight back. Remember that nutcase shooter in Maine? And not a word on the weapon used. Because it was an AR-10, and nobody knows what the fuck that is.

    If you guys think the cops are bad now, imagine if they had zero fear we could shoot back. People forget, guns are as much, or more, of a deterrence than a weapon. LOL, there was a guy in the woods last week that would have happily beat my ass if I was open carrying. He was about to choke himself trying to be civil and polite.

    Gays, blacks and women got the fucking memo, largest gun buying demographic for years. Suburban white boys haven’t figured it out yet. But they’re happy to post cute guillotine memes all day long.





  • Used to do snuff because my workplace banned smoking anywhere on campus. I’d go in the bathroom and snort a pinch a few times a day.

    Hanging out at the guy’s cube next to the door, I was horrified to find that you can hear everything in there! Fuck me. There could hear me snorting and see me coming out with red eyes. My supervisor, who was great woman, asked me very nicely if I had a drug problem because of the “tracks” on my arm. (It was a caring thing, not a nosy thing.) LOL, they were burns from working in a rubber plant that hadn’t faded yet.

    Anyway, that was my first tech support job and I got my hands on a 386 Windows 3.11 machine! Started my career.
