that button fuckin' sucks! why zit even there?
Get some new hats boyz
I got a ball cap from the heli-outfit and there is no button, i assume so it can be worn with a flight helmet and not grind a hole in your head
The snap trap that left the cute little mouse struggling instead of dead annoyed me. A lot.
Gonna go out on a limb and suggest the mouse was more annoyed!

fuck me.

No mags in your city?
Not that it will help you now, but the portable rechargable jumpers are definitely worth it. $70 or so.
Option is carrying cables and then holding them by passing cars and hope someone stops.
Why is your dipstick not all the way in?
My preggo wife wanted to go with me on a classic late spring tour on Mt Rainier. She planned to just hang out at the car to enjoy the parking lot scene and sunshine while i toured/skied. I get back to the car and realized she had the key in the ignition playing music off the battery and doors all open with interior lights on. Battery was dead enough to not start the car. Luckily, being preggo, sympathy was strong and we quickly found a random tourist who was eager to try out his Costco battery jumper, which worked perfectly first try.
I immediately went out and bought one of those chargers... its the size of a small book and i keep it in my glove box... it charges phones and laptops easily, and is a sweet backup to have. I already had to use it once to jump my dead battery at home so i could drive to Autozone for a new battery. And the thing holds its charge- i check once a year before ski season and its never dropped below 98%. If you had that, plus one of those portable flat tire compressor kits, youd be pretty darn set for emergencies.
I last checked my battery jumper about 4 years ago. I wonder how it's doing.
Dipstick is all the way in. Just got a long handle.
The battery is not the problem so a jump pack would not have helped me. Alternator belt broke. I needed to fully recharge the battery so I could make it back home to affect repairs.
unfortunately, happened at drive time on the way to work. Not really a good time to expect friends or family to be able to help.
AAA used to be real quick round these parts, but this new computer dispatching system they got really really fucking sucks.
It’s the same distance back as it was to get to where I ran outta juice. on the way back, I didn’t run the headlights, radio, heater fan or headlights and in the end I made it back just fine.
The real kicker is, I had a new belt with me. Unfortunately, what I didn’t have was a 12mm Deep socket in order to reach the fucking nut on the bottom of the AC pulley. my offset box and wrenches, are not offset enough to reach the nut. My half inch drive was too big to fit in the space with an extender on it, but too short without an extender on it. My quarter inch drive would reach, but it didn’t give any anywhere near enough leverage to move the nut.
I am highly annoyed.

This has probably been mentioned, but device charging cords. I just upgraded my iPad and iPhone and of course I need new charging cords, and I need two configurations - USB A to USB C and USB C to USB C. And now I can trash the old Apple Lightning cords…it’s shit that annoys me.
ebay seller has pictures of 22/23 skis with a significant upgrade from previous model. Sends previous model. Now I need to hash it out with them and it will likely be a couple weeks before I get my money back.
Why can't people sit in their assigned seat on airplanes? I was in Chicago over the weekend and had to kick someone out of my seat both ways.
And they ALWAYS play so stupid like you're the one in the wrong. And it's not like they're a row or two off. They're like opposite end of the aircraft off. One of the reasons I still like to print out my boarding pass so I have it in hand when I look for my seat. "Oh, is this 14F? Yeah, I thought so. What does yours say? Ah, yes. 36B. Right back thataway..."
Then they'll be all like:

If the plane's only like 1/2 full, I usually don't care and let it slide, but when it's maxed out, then hell no. GTFO. Funny thing was a couple (no kids) tried pulling that on me not long ago but due to a short connection, it was actually going to work in my favor. While it irks me that people don't simply ask first if somebody would be willing to swap before doing it, this time I killed 'em with kindness. "14F...oh, here we are! Oh wait, we might have wrong seats. My boarding pass also says 14F. What does yours say? You don't say. 12C? Hey, I tell you what. You two lovebirds go ahead and stay put and I'll take your old seat if that's ok with you." Any time I glanced back, they'd awkwardly look down and away, acting all embarrassed. People are hilarious.. Hahaha.
It actually worked in my favor on Sunday. The person in my seat was sitting one row behind where he was supposed to be so I said that was okay and I'd take his seat since they were both window seats. Then someone sat in the middle seat in his (new) row but not mine on a very full plane!Quote:

It seems like the Apple branded charger cords are shit, too. My wife has an iPhone and it seemed like she always needed new cords for her phone.
The worst is when you finally decide to pony up and spring for something like Delta's "Comfort Plus" and then some random couple from the back of the plane thinks they should be entitled to your seats that they know damn well you paid extra for. That really does take some nerve to try and pull that on a full flight and then act all dumbfounded when called out on it. Last time that happened, a flight attendant immediately swooped into action the second she saw me (politely) confronting the offending party, and made them pack their crap and go to their assigned seats. Then they acted all annoyed, grumbling and muttering under their breath with a quiet temper tantrum. WTF is wrong with some people?
