Wow, I've never heard that before.
Yeah, we used that term in high school, for sure.
As opposed to getting spun, which is tripping on doses or Molly or a combination of both, known as the Candy Flip, not to be confused with the Hippie Flip
Spunout these days is more like tweakers, just your style beatahflake
It reminds me of the Seinfeld where Jerry dates the Romanian gymnast with hopes she'd "use him as the apparatus,"
Let's get it straight I'm a ricochet
Bouncing off these walls I could hit you all
When you see me come you better run
Yeah yeah, the world keeps spinning
It don't affect the way I'm thinking
I'm spun outta control
I'm spun now you're spun
Talked to a clerk in a Levi's store one time who said that when they cut the various pieces of fabric for a pair of jeans, they'll stack several pieces of denim and cut multiples at the same time. There's some wiggle, so not all the pieces come out exactly the same size. He said that was why jeans that are ostensibly the same size may not be, and said it's always worthwhile trying on several pairs to see if one fits better than the others.Quote:

labor that earns $0.35 an hour vs how much for a machine with the same throughout? For customers that don’t really care about fit, because if they did they’d spend more on jeans?Quote:

I concur. My SIL went through a phase a few years back where she would update a family group text with the amount of times she pooped that day. Every day. My "unsubscribe" text did not work.Quote:

Had a riding mower. It worked fine, but had proprietary sheer pins that they stopped making. I got tired of messing with it and bought a new mower. Mentioned to a friend, who asked, that I was going to sell it for cheap to somebody who could either weld the problem away or could continue to make their own sheer pins out of bolts, like I’d been doing. He mentioned it to another mutual friend who was not at all handy and this guy decided he wanted to buy it and have his mechanic figure all that out.
He buys the mower, sends it to his mechanic, and they can’t figure it out. So now he had a pile and it was in the next town and now what?
Effing annoying. I gave him his money back and told him to just scrap it.
Summer waxing.

Nice humble brag^^ :D
Every right to brag. I’m a month behind of my winter gear maintenance. That said, the family XC gear in number equals DH. So many skinny sticks, 50mm takes almost as much time as 130mm to wax.
Very nice spread of disciplines. Emphasis on gravity pursuits. <Moustache emoji>
I would have driven over, show the mechanic how to fix it, and charged them an extra $200.
Microsoft annoys me. https://doctorow.medium.com/https-pl...n-af0ed5dd29f2
Amazing that the list of their past offenses is so long that there's no mention of MS changing their TOS to ban class action against them. For anything, no matter how they might violate their own TOS (again). Care? For at least a year they've been too big to notice at all.Quote:

You say all that like it’s a bad thing.Quote:

I wouldn’t replace them, they’re doing their job and they’ll just rust again

I had/have it, but have developed strategies to largely overcome it. So, i sympathize with folks who also have it- it can be debilitating.Quote:

Not that I know of...Quote:

You didn't just replace the whole toilet?Quote:
