If we are being intellectually honest, this really isn't about my wearing hiking knickers is it?

Mashing potatoes by hand can be hard. I apologize for shaming you for being old and weak.

If you come to Solstice next summer, know that we will have Little Rascal scooters available for those who need them.

JFC, again with the potatoes?

One can never offer too many olive branches.

It was the third bushel* that got me.


*The U.S. level bushel (or struck bushel) is equal to 2,150.42 cubic inches (35,245.38 cubic cm) and is considered the equivalent of the Winchester bushel, a measure used in England from the 15th century until 1824. A U.S. level bushel is made up of 4 pecks, or 32 dry quarts.

When I overfeed Udoka he pukes on the carpet. I hope I did not stuff you to the point of puking on the carpet.

There were some great meals in the valley during that gathering.

^^^ There sure were!

And, I know it's been upsetting and difficult to accept for you japhy, but looking at the bright side of your daughter identifying as a cat, the carpet was saved because I was able to hurl into one of her strategically placed cat boxes.

It was the transition from Japhy Jr to Janette that took more time for me to process. The transition to Miss Meow Meow was easier after that.

I miss playing catch with Lil Japhy in the backyard.

I'm pretty sure my next car will be a hybrid.

is this the thread where we bitch about the insane costs of used vehicles? wow, it's absurd really.

Nov 1, 2023 — Used car prices have declined 11.6% since July 2022.

Unfortunately, they went up 36% in 2021.

I thought this is where we hypothesized about the penis sizes of men who drive trucks and SUVs?

I mean, how do they quantify that? there's a lot of different vehicles and purposes to make broad general statistics have any real value. I highly doubt the vehicles im looking for have declined 11%....or at all.

For instance, to qualify for the maximum tax write off I need a 3/4 ton long bed or more. Those vehicles are hard to find because (as has been discussed at length here) they don't make many as most people want jacked up short beds with mega cabs to get groceries. So, supply is short.

I found one on a lot today. 2018, Ram 2500 long box gasser. 114,503 miles (on a gas engine....) Any guesses on price?



















$42,599



Get. The Fuck. Out of here.

No fucking chance I'd pay thay kind of scrilla, scratch, paper for a gasser with 115k miles.

Anecdotal, but I have been looking at cars for over a year as I have increased my travel quite a bit over that time with a new office over an hour away from where I live (I only go in 2 or 3 days a week, but still)....

I can say for used SUVs at dealerships in my area (2hr radius), prices have absolutely dropped over the last 12+ months. Specifically and more noticeably in the last 6 months.

New cars have also dropped a bit. Not as much, but down from peak ridiculousness the last few years.

I do think the SUV, small suv market is fairly well saturated at the moment

@ElonMusk

We are going to offer a mod package that enables Cybertruck to traverse at least 100m of water as a boat.

Mostly just need to upgrade cabin door seals.

I suppose you could at least give him credit for his commitment to the bit.

And remembers the PFDs

Cuz I’ll sure remember the popcorn

Right. Because his products are well-known for their precision engineering and fabrication.
