My own frugal-ness annoys me. Spending hours or days searching for the best deal, many times culminating in missing the original deal due to procrastination. Just pull the trigger!

Sounds like my wife--she'll spend hours finding the best deal on something we don't have any use for.

Yessir, that’s it!

Like driving around a parking lot looking for the closest parking space.....

Yeah the Jan. 6 guy. I heard about him. I don't get it. If you don't have enough brains to separate your politics from your small business then too bad. Think of how many people have looked at Reminisce Angus Beef FB page and said ahhhh no. Probably half. Just pure stupidity. Sad thing is they appear to have a really good product. Maybe I'm being petty but I'd find it annoying regardless of what side of the spectrum they fall on. Haven't we all had enough of that BS to last us a lifetime?

Seriously How hard is it to just shut up about politics in your business life? I saw a post on the comments in the Seattle Times talking about a new bar that had "Free Palestine!" painted in large letters behind the bar. Is it really worth alienating a decent part of your customer base just to voice your political views?

It's dumping snow and I'm trying to go skin a preseason lap in some fresh. But a dipshit with summer tires got loose and now I'm waiting for the tow truck and paramedics to get the road re-opened.

Neighbor built a multi million dollar house next to us about a year ago. In that year, they've spent maybe 10 days at the house. They don't rent it out or anything; it just sits vacant. Power is currently out everywhere in town due to a wet snow storm. But the unoccupied neighbor's house has a generator running and is lit up. It's a fairly ridiculous waste of pretty much everything.

I'm also annoyed because I tried to mix myself a cocktail in the dark and I fucked up the ratios.

Sounds like you need to tap into that generator.

[m2711c]

Yep! Extension cord under the fence to that outdoor outlet… tis the neighborly thing to do.



fact.

[Buzzworthy]

I mean, it is the season of giving.

[toast2266]

You guys make an excellent point. I'm gonna need some longer extension cords.

Speaker wire should do the trick. A lot harder for your neighbor to spot than a beefy cord.

And, because this is TGR. Just kidding.

Changing headlight bulbs on my partners car. I swear to fucking god it shouldn't be this hard.

Right? In my BMW at least it’s just a bulb, expensive one, but at least it’s only the bulb. You have to take the tire and turn it to the inside then remove the tire, and attack the space for the bulb from the backside. I don’t know whose hand is that small to get in there. There’s probably a specific tool that the dealers have, but I ain’t gonna buy that.

HA! That sucks. [LAUGHS IN VOLVO]

So, I just had to replace my wife’s battery on her ‘14 Ford Escape. 5 minute job, right?

NOPE! Probably an hour, if you have done it a few times. I was all set to use my friend’s heated garage, etc…the Carquest guys told me that Big O does it for $35, flat fee.
Done deal.

Every time I swap my tires for winters I have to go back to the shop to have the TPMS manually reset. Every time I went into America's Tire the same thing happened--I'd tell them about it, they say no problem and then maybe 5 miles down the road the light would come on. Never while the car is still in the lot. This year I had my regular mechanic change the tires after AT fucked up a bunch of bolts last time. Same problem. 2018 Forester. AT claims the TPMS should manually reset but mine doesn't. So tomorrow back to the mechanic. It's tempting to ignore the light.

sad but true.

you are better than this.

just had the snows put on Friday, same annoyance.

[Rideski]

I'm not too proud to say that warning light has saved my bacon a couple times.

[plugboots]

Probably four or five cars ago I got the snows and wheels and didn’t really think about getting TPMS sensors and of course the yellow light stayed on. So I thought OK, great, next time I’ll get the TPMS sensors. We got a Prius. I order the snow tires with the TPMS sensors mounted in the wheels, and the program for the Prius only allows one set of tires to be loaded into the car’s system. WTF? And… they charge I think 200 bucks to reprogram it each time. I don’t pay it. So 6 months with the light 6 months w/o.
I guess this should go in the wife thread, but because of this, my wife wants to order the new Prius.

Any chance a $30 OBD2 dongle and Torque Pro (or a similar, Toyota-specific app) would let you reprogram yourself?

I've got the tools to make config changes on my F-150, but it's a Ford-specific program. I currently lack working sensors in my winter wheels, but whenever I remember to bring the laptop out to the truck, I'll just turn the system off for the winter.
