touch yourself under your desk. Sounds like you're working extra hard and you'll be too busy to eat~!

I want to "build" myself a tiny RaspberryPi based dedicated computer to playing older stuff. Check it out if you got like $100 spare and a few hours. RetroPie is a distro made to make it simple too.

If they don't join in, tell them they're not team players and you'll be making recommendations for their termination immediately.

Unrelated Edit: Where is Alpine, TX and which one of you TexASS boys is calling my personal cell during work hours?
I'm guessing mister crabs. Alpine TX is about 30 minutes south from Kenwood TX and about 1 hr east from Blaupunkt TX.

Car shit: Need to replace LCA bushings at some point soonish. Noticed they're cracked, so that probably plays in the weird handling I've been feeling lately. Also it pulls ever so slightly to the right, quick look without taking anything apart I couldn't see something obvious and I don't think I would have fucked my alignment.
And brakes in the back, might as well do fronts too though. ~_~

On an unrelated note I got eyed while I was buying a dress shirt and dress pants. Girls behind me are talking to each other almost whispering and clearly talking about me when I hear one of them say "mmm dang is it the 281 here, I'm getting hot". The 281 is a popular male dancer club in Montreal.

Thanks ladies, keep it classy. That'll be $100.

Blaupunkt Texas is in a 1987 VW Jetta.
Polo...I swapped my cracked LCA bushings for new ones with extra window weld. Felt zero difference.

They're not noisy yet, but really? That sucks man, I kinda wish I could know what's that weird feeling. Maybe it really is just the tires... It just feels too "floaty"/soft/disconnected.

Doesn't mean it won't be your problem...at the time I was chasing a vibration...I replaced both front axles to get rid of this weird wobble feeling when lightly accelerating.

Honestly though...I do feel the car is very disconnected and floaty every time I drive it after the S2000. Not even kidding, I didn't feel that way before.

Might just be me then, but it seems to coincide with the summer wheels and tires the more I think about it. Either way I gotta figure out if it's pulling to the right slightly because it needs an alignment or for some other reason.

Nope, done in 10 minutes

Shit, I have to work on my car too.

Corolla needs all fluids changed. Passenger side window motor is going out, window goes down helllla slow. The trunk needs to be replaced it's starting to get leaves and shit. (Hit and run a long time ago and never did anything about it, its off center). Weather stripping has seen better days.

Wiiiiin!

The DMV equivalent near my work moved location 2 years ago and since then it's like people think it doesn't exist anymore. Every time I go it takes 10 minutes and I'm out. Usually takes 1 hr+ too at any other location.

I have to drive 25 mins away or I will be waiting 2 hours+ to deal with some bitchy ratchet ass multi color barney looking bitch.

It takes 15 mins to get to my closest DMV anyway, what's the extra 10 mins.

I'm not used to repairing cars. I would get rid of them before I had to. My wife is logical she says fix, I say fuck that shit! But not I have to be logical.

Sadly agree with your wife.

What's a window motor anyway? Take door off, disconnect shit, nothing too big. Then it won't sound like an early 90ies flat bed scanner when the window goes up or down.


Edit: Not the whole door alright, just the inside trim. Just in case you're about to pull the door off Flip.
