AMC does dine in theaters, but they're not nearly as good as Studio grill

Welp, for the first time ever, as far as I can recall, the tpms system saved me some hassle. Picked up a rock while trying to grab kids from various locations. Fortunately, the MIL was able to grab the last two while I changed to the space saver... Now to see if we can fix it or I need to shell out for new tires. On a schedule that means I can't leave the car anywhere and in the midst of tire changeover season, so everyone is booked solid! fun times!

Powershift posted:Your wife gets it. You are very much going to the wrong theaters. I use local ones (Cinemark-owned) that have reserved seating in heated power recliners, and anyone with a phone gets killed. Loudness does vary, though. Musician's earplugs can help with that. I also use the Alamo Drafthouse, which is a dinner theater (and bar, as the name implies) and they absolutely WILL boot you for talking or using your phone. They're serious about it. And don't you "in my day" me. I'm 49 years old

cakesmith handyman posted:Fun weekend, the plan was to leave work early Friday and drive the panda down to Brighton, guessed 4 hours. Made it half way and developed a squeal from the front left, the lightest touch of the brakes stopped it so I guessed rattling pads, deal with it when I got home. Then it wouldn't stop squealing so I stopped and took a look, one red hot wheel, oh poo poo are my brakes bad? Yessss! I love moments in life like this.

Some lady and her husband pulled into a parking spot at work in a beat up Toyota Matrix today. Cranked the wheel over quite a bit since the pull up was a in hurry. I'd stepped out for a smoke and noticed a good 3x6-7 inch chunk of tread on the inner part of the tire was missing with big chunks of thread exposed and some bubbling going on. Pointed it out to the husband who understandably freaked the gently caress out since they had no spare. Kids in the car throwing a fit, they've got a ton of stuff going on. Wife ain't happy, she's making prints of his resume trying to land him better work. No way to see the missing tread unless you were at full lock so I can't blame them for not noticing. Clearly not a good day at 10am. Wife buys a couple airplane bottles and I bundle them off to the discount tire right up the road. They came back an hour later offering to buy me a sandwich since the tire guys said they were probably 10mi from having the drat thing shred apart catastrophically. Some days you have bad days. Some days you have good days. Other days you actually make a difference and that makes it worth it. MC Hawking fucked around with this message at 00:45 on May 1, 2019 |

Honestly, they should have made the movie about the time my aunt tried to capture a raccoon that was digging through her trash, put it in a garage-saled pet carrier (she has no pets), slam the pet carrier in the back of her '89 Accord and then cannonball it across the province to be released in a nice public park she saw once.

Wait, did she garage sale this crate specifically for the trash panda, or did she buy one for a past or future pet?

She bought one despite not having any pet: the carrier, apparently, was cheap. Later she got a dog, but the carrier was too small for it.

We had a good run with this thread, but alas, it's time to close it. And for me to get the final word. Darchangel posted:I also use the Alamo Drafthouse, which is a dinner theater (and bar, as the name implies) and they absolutely WILL boot you for talking or using your phone. They're serious about it. This is my favorite thing about Alamo, and I happily pay the premium price for that (the food isn't too bad either). They really are serious about it, and ran this as the lights went down for a good year or so (lights down = STFU).
