^Badass! Does is scoot?

It MOVES. in "normal" driving mode it still feels eager. Eco mode really makes it lazy enough to drive "normally" but man is it a lot of fun.

Oh this hands down. The fit was fun because 6 speed manual, but it was really underpowered. Compared to the MR2 though, they are a pretty close match.

I've been looking at a few JVC/Pioneer heads for months and there's zero stock anywhere. Chip shortage has been brutal on that industry.

Well what do you know, this morning I got an in-stock notice from Crutchfield and put the order through. Looking forward to having a modern stereo in the wagon.




Also, $37,000 worth of siding and eavestrough. Yay.

It's well engineered -

For anyone who may be considering this shelter, I retract this statement. It's sturdy enough, but doesn't remain waterproof in moderate rain conditions.

Guess that's why they call it a SUN shelter as opposed to a "Sun and Rain" shelter....

Could you spray it with waterproof spray? Probably doesn't make it 100% but maybe a bit better (if you already own it).

I'm assuming it's all the seams from the moving panels for retraction...

To be honest the only water I ever saw come in was from under the fabric side panels. Never had anything from the roof panels so long as one they're extended correctly.

Gotta say for the price to get customized polarized sunglasses that are very decent quality, I recommend checking these guys out. Just shy of $100 cdn shipped.

Finally going to get rid of the awful head unit in my WRX. Had been putting it off for a while but after having wireless Carplay in the F150, I couldn't put it off any longer.

Chip shortage seems to be hitting Pioneer hard as well, basically all of their units are OOS and I couldn't help but notice that there was only two new units released for 2021.

I ordered a Pioneer back in April and I think it took about 3 months to arrive. Wireless carplay is amazing though, absolutely worth the wait.

Jealous Devil lumpy charcoal, seemingly endorsed by Burly from The Simpsons.


Double the price of Weber charcoal which is also a fair bit more than Kingsford. Meh - only live once. Used CT money, so it was "free".

I've used one of these for a few years. Works ok for a quick shave.

They're awesome for people who only shave once a week (or longer). Quick zip with that, then use a razor for smoothness.

[shakalaka]

That's a good trimmer. It's what I use for lining up my beard/stubble if I am keeping it. But if I doing a clean shave, then I just prefer a wet shave as that thing can make things somewhat itchy.

Got my next 72 bouts of blowies planned out? Like, who the fuck is buying this?!? I don't think I've had 72 times in my entire life where I felt like I needed medicine to fix blowies. Have you? What's your secret?
No, I mean the secret to not killing yourself if you have that much diarrhea.

I think I've got a partial bottle of Pepto that expired in 2013.

There are people with certain medical conditions that require this product on a daily basis, basically forever. I have one relative who takes this daily. No idea how common that is, but we also have a bottle in our cupboard for occasional use by one of the kids.

Also, this has nothing to do with "blowies".

Oops!
You got me on that one! I went from poopies to blowies and skipped second gear.

I think this is worse! I think I've never taken a product that does this. Closest would be a spoon of Benefiber or choking down a banana.
It's common enough that Costco has a skid of it, so maybe I'm missing out.

When you consider the crap most people eat on the daily, this doesn’t surprise me in the slightest.
