I'm dding the speed6 which is making more noises than it should whilst consuming premium fuel and spitting out 20mpg on a good day. But my work drive is only 25 minutes each way. Once we close on the house I'm going to dive into OT and get me a fuckin Prius or something.

Darchangel posted:I've gathered that has not gone well. You may recall previous posts regarding conversations re: jobs and sleep times are rather... non-compromising from the distaff side. This is true. My wife and I went through a very turbulent time when we first moved in together (the house was cursed) and it nearly ended us. But we were stronger than that and have stood the test.

So they totally fired a dude today because he's been eating food out of the fridges in the break rooms. That's break ROOMS. His badge was flagged going into buildings he doesn't work in and they got curious and checked the cameras and his dumbass was going to the various rooms and stuffing his face.

I've been thinking about this for a few days and Trump's hatred of the media almost makes sense. Because as it stands today, the media can be loving dangerous. I'm not talking about CNN or Fox News, I'm talking about some douchebag with a Twitter or YT channel, an agenda and an audience. If you have a crowd of rabid followers and you want to hurt someone, you can cause a lot of damage in the name of freedom of the press. I've been seeing a lot of this across the various social media services. There's some ex soldier with 4 million followers teling them it's just fine and dandy to assault people protesting Trump and that people are actually listening to this guy kind of terrifies me.

slidebite posted:What did the engineer say about the bowing wall and the remediation? Not sure if you posted about it earlier or not. There are no issues with the slab or foundation. The wall is a different problem that according to the contractor, is very fixable. quote:The gypsum board was found to be bulging out on both sides of the existing stair wall (see The contractor they've had look at it says they would demo out the drywall, and then lift the wall slightly so they can lay in a new base board. This will cause a few more cracks but they will be fixing the existing ones as well as any new cracks that form. He also thinks this will remedy the door issue.

slidebite posted:If nothing else, removing the drywall will give the opportunity to see far better what's going on. Having the repair done before we take possession is one of the last things we requested. They initially wanted us to get an estimate and they'd write us a check but I wanted it done before we get keys. Our realtors are bouncing that back and forth right now. Original close date was the 21st, we wanted to push back to Dec 2nd so everything on the list could be done. They're writing us a check for the minor things (that I and my friends can do) but this one I've been pretty hard on. They want to push closing up but we'll see what monday brings. The guy who was going to paint for us can't fit us in until January so we're going to paint the essential rooms ourselves the week after we get keys and then start moving in.

I have other friends but I don't feel bad about not seeing them regularly. So. house stuff. The service tech at one of the properties my wife worked at is having a rough time financially. He mentioned he was looking for side jobs and he's a licenced contractor so we're having him do the wall repair and he's gonna toss a quote at us to paint the whole house. He's also going to demo the french doors and wall up the hole. As we have access they've also given us the go ahead to start cleaning so I'm going over tomorrow to clear the junk out of the attic and garage.

ExplodingSims posted:Yeah, car interiors actually have some semblance of design again. But man, mid-2000s cars are terrible. Just miles and miles of flat untextured plastic. My mid 00's Mazda interior isn't terrible but it's pretty bland. Five more steps taken towards home ownership and closing. Officially hired contractor to do the interior repair and another to do the other stuff. We're gonna stop by Menards to check out flooring as one room has janky carpeting and price out paint.
