  1. So what you're saying is Eichel should just assume Baloo is gonna screw up? I mean, I don't disagree lol Sobotka again!
  2. Montreal keeps surprising them. They're sneaky in their system.
  3. I don't think Eichel dogged it at all. He was just too far behind the play.
  4. They're the only ones that haven't screwed me! If you set the bar low you won't be disappointed.
  5. Old used cars like that are more my bag for sure. I've had much better luck with old used cars.
  6. My question is what are people budgeting? Because I can't help but feel like my budget is part of the problem.
  7. The answer is blowing in the wind.
  8. I have awful luck.
  9. Easily one of my favorite gags in any movie. "We're takin it back!"
  10. I think a savvy Republican and Presidential hopeful (does Romney want to try again?) would try to get ahead of the GOP a little if they perceive that the party is in trouble politically. Someone like Romney could easily set the stage for himself as a "moderate" Republican in 2020 if they think Trump/Pence/et al are in big doo doo.
  11. I've been enjoying the new album.
  12. If Allen gets hurt Sunday the Bills should be relocated to China.
  13. I've always wanted to buy a car at auction. But the hassle of it has always deterred me. Very sorry to hear that man.
  14. That's asking a lot of athletes who basically exist to party and bullsh*t and party and bullsh*t.
  15. This is probably accurate. But that's because most people weren't raised to respect gay people.
  16. I mean, Jack might be an idiot. He's probably an idiot.
  17. It didn't really though. Calling someone/something gay with the intention of it being an insult is absolutely a slur. In your example, calling the homework gay isn't calling the homework stupid, it's calling gay people stupid. The homework is just the vessel for the slur, not the target.
  18. He's from Massachusetts. Using that word is genetic.
  19. Okay, let's get this started. First things first. Started hearing a noise from the back of my car a few weeks ago. I suspected wheel bearing and was right. My car only has 52k on it, which seemed suspect but okay. So West Herr tells me that what has happened is that the rear brakes have seized in the calipers in such a way that the pads were essentially "on". And this prematurely wore out BOTH rear wheel bearings. So I got to drop $1200 today to get new pads and rotors, and two new wheel bearings. What is insane about this is that in the 2 years I've had this car the way it drives has not changed in any way. If the rear brakes were faulty, then they were faulty WHEN I BOUGHT IT. Cool. Cool Cool Cool. This brings me to my next complaint: Used cars are a bad deal and you shouldn't bother. Let's break this down. In December of 2016 I bought my 2014 Impala LT2 from West Herr in OP. 38k on the clock, previous lease. Okay, great. Purchase price $18,500, with tax: ~$20,026. Down payment: $3,000 Amount financed: $17,011 at 4.89% APR Interest: $1,745 Total loan amount: $18756 Repairs through 2 years: $2400 Total real cost after 2 years: $21,156 Estimated cost after 4 years: $23,156 Oustanding repairs: $2,000 for the partially inop infotainment system which GM has no functional way of diagnosing other than "fix one thing, then fix the other thing" aka "get bent lulz". For that kind of money over 4 years I could buy a brand new Mazda6. Or a Regal Sportback. This car has in no way been a good deal. Forget about depreciation. Buy a new car and enjoy it. You'll be glad you did. I will never buy another used car for a daily driver ever again. And on top of all this, I received a red light camera ticket in the mail this week from Nassau County (a place I've never been) for a Jeep Cherokee (a car I have never owned) for a license plate that I surrendered to the DMV in 2015. So now I have to waste a bunch of time handling THAT because red light cameras should be illegal. Screw literally everything.
  20. I just lost my entire rant because the ***** alternate thread disappeared before I hit post.
