This is fine for home tinkerers.

When I was working on my tools, I figured out quickly what i could get away with doing Harbor Freight, and what I really actually needed to spend money on. When you're using them for an 8-12 hour shift (or the occasional OT/double), you don't have to time to waste with sockets with slop, ratchets that can't stand torque, wrenches that round off, or anything with poor ergonomics.

A home toolbox that's like 90% Harbor Freight is fine for the vast majority of Americans, tho

I agree with that generally, and it was for sure true in the past.

That said, I have some of their new Icon stuff that I'd absolutely put up against my snap on, matco and kd stuff. And their new mid line saws and such are pretty drat nice. I've put probably 2k cuts through the miter saw so far with zero issue.

I believe ESPN still has at least one game, but other than that yeah if you've got a TV an antenna of some sort will likely work. Well as long as you are in a somewhat ok location for reception.

I have no idea how to check that without actually getting one and trying.

I should probably strike while the iron's hot, no?

But no, these are 10000% unofficial and I think Disney will probably shut this down. But maybe not? There are tons of those princess parties where you can pay to have Disney princesses show up at your kid's birthday party so who knows. I think it's a bit double standard-y though, that they make us TAs jump through hoops and stick to very strict rules (we're not allowed to show pics of Disney parks in the rain because they want us to never imply that it rains at Disney) but these people can have Mickey preside over your funeral. Lord.

Which will never not be funny since it rains in FL loving constantly.

Also I will never understand needing to visit Disney more than once, and even with free passes holy poo poo is it not worth it

I guess they're mad because I said no tip on the app?

My wife has put "tip is taped on the door!" in the app, food gets dropped, and tip is still left on the door.

E: also athanatos you have incredible patience, and despite what qcs says i think you do great. Probably helps that in here its usually self correcting so you don't have to deal with much and can instead throw your efforts into getting wrecked in qcs for another forum.

I always presume the actors are just constantly blitzed whenever they're out of costume, in part because of one of those old Texts From Last Night entries (I have no idea why I remember that site except it was really popular to reference my first couple years of college)

I know quite a few cast members, and they're either full kool aid drinkers who are Mormon level nice even off work, and the rest are absolutely degenerate alcoholics and love cocaine.

Most of my Disney hate is from living here and dealing with the tourists and traffic, the rest is from people who base their life around it and have zero else to talk about, which is half the people I work with.

I also almost got a job there but the pay was lol. Full $15k a year less than any other offer i had, and the pep talk was "but you get to work for disney!"

Its cool, it was just a job inspecting metal fatigue on rides :v:

Edit: Star Wars land did not make crowding any better. As close as I am, the usual theory is go all winter at least once a week after 4pm or so. You can ride most things that way.

It was the other Talia, not the sword one I saw saying it. I know this description is not enough for a normal person to know who I was talking about but probably is for you, ha.

Anyway her objection obviously wasn't to the specific situation, but rather exactly how long and how hard bad actors had to go on with both groups before we got here. Instead of just standing in a park while supporting some other cause being a reason to escalate, blah blah.

This is about where I'm at. I managed to keep Dry January going last week even with a coup attempt, so the next 20 days will be pretty downhill. Excercising's been tough because running in Wisconsin right now suuuuucks, Make sure to keep enough veggies around to make salads regularly and if you have cheat days, make sure they're "biscuit breakfast sandwich" and not "the rest of the pizza."

I'm doing dry January also. Had a couple beers Saturday because my buddy brought them over, but thats been it since Dec.

I wasn't even drinking heavily, but it was a consistent 2 to 3 drinks a day. Hasn't been an issue not drinking, other than I am an absolutely horrible sober sleeper.

That sounds like a nightmare HOA or property manager, but also means you have a bunch of lovely neighbors where apparently they need to do this because people can’t be bothered to pick up after their dog.

No, it comes from one person seeing someone not pick up dog poo poo and starting a loving crusade. I've also seen it for the dog equivalent of means testing breeds.

It's peak white poo poo. I live in a good neighborhood, and had an actual loving human poo poo in my front yard and rub their rear end cheeks on a tree. Talked to neighbors, they've had it too. But people put up signs for the dog poo poo in their yard.

(Tree shitter is an 80+ white dude who apparently escapes his home nurse and just can't resist shrubbery shits)
