    I haven't reapplied the flex tape yet after about a dozen trips out. I was talking to my kayak dealer a few weeks ago asking about gouges in the hull and what to do if it happens and he said a lot of people just use a hair dryer and a plastic milk jug for patches. I'm pretty careful and haven't...

    All he had to do was stfu and go hang out in the other forums and talk about aliens, movies, or whatever the fuck. But no, like you said, they just can't help themselves from being disruptive, attention seeking assholes. Good riddance, he had plenty of chances to adjust to our forums culture and...

    I do keep Flex Tape on the underside where it rubs getting in and out of my truck. Noticed a little wear on my keel yesterday so might add a little strip there. It's really grabby so I can back in and pull out of steep boat ramps without worrying about it sliding off the back of my truck...

    Here's my setup with an Outback. Very versatile, doesn't do anything the best but I can do just about anything in it. Pedal powered so I'm hands free for fishing. Multi day river floats when I need to pack more gear. Day out on the lake when I need to cover a few miles. Offshore from the...

    It was my little sister that would put on Dirty Dancing every day after school in the VCR. And Grease 2, haha. I know every lyric to every song on those damn movies.

    I clean lots of bugs off my truck everytime I wash it. Lots of cattle pastures with no pesticides around where I live.

    Lighten up Francis. You don't think sometimes it gets a little stale reading the same 20 middle age dudes opinions in the same threads day after day? Give these guys a little bit of a break, we had the rug pulled out from us a time or three and it fucking sucked. It's not like we are being...

    Old Town seems to have surpassed Hobie these days when it comes to quality and features. My advice is find a kayak dealer in your area and look at them in person and go from there. You being in the NW I'm sure you can find a lot of options. If you want a fishing kayak with actual, sit on top...

    That's so unwanted attention can't make it's way into one of the few remaining political free speech spaces left on the intertubes. We learned this lesson the hard way a few years back.

    Better hurry up, it's damn near finished here. Once I cleaned em I saw that most of them were spawned out with empty bellies. Shad spawn is starting to rev up so that's where those fuckers that didn't get caught will be headed next. Lots of chilly nights lately have thrown things off, hoping to...

    I can't figure out how to get to Orobyss or corruption. Do I have to finish all 10 timelines first? I've beat the boss on the first three timelines and beaten the first timeline boss three times but am not seeing any different echoes that indicate where Oro is.

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    No one is saying they invented cost overruns, nice strawman. People were hearing about the DoD buying $200 hammers in the 80's. The DEI shit is just the latest flavor of milking the consumer for more $$$, but with an identity politics twist. The identity politics is what makes it so fucking...

    Just because overall life expectancy is dropping doesn't mean YOUR life expectancy is dropping. Especially if you aren't riding on the corporate pharma bandwagon.

    I'm playing a Warlock and when I got to CF I had 100+ mana without trying. Literally the first node in the specialization tree is -4 cost, +6 mana on hits per point. I took that and have never had any mana problems at all. Even after upgrading it to spew upgraded, mana heavy Chaos Bolts. I also...

    Picked this up yesterday, seems fun. Haven't played PoE in like 3 years and just didn't feel like re-learning whatever new overly complicated shit they've put in since then. Great timing for this release. Was planning on touching lots of grass this weekend with the gorgeous weather we are having...

    Let's build some pools!

    Nah, like I said, the house behind it is 2' higher in elevation, nothing was stopping it. That includes all the rainwater coming off the gutters. We build 300 pools a year and might have half a dozen catastrophic cave ins out of those. If we started deploying something like that on every build...

    Let's build some pools!

    Weather has been shit this winter, lots of rain at the most inopportune times. Got this one dug, neighbor behind it sits about 2' higher so all their runoff dumps into my yard. I can usually get it to gunite in a week or so which puts an end to worrying about cave ins. Didn't have enough time on...

    On becoming an electrician

    Really depends. If the guy you work for is hopping from residential job to residential job and he isn't one of the big players in your area then it might be spotty. If you're doing bigger commercial jobs or work for someone that has so much work that he has multiple crews then it's going to be a...

    +1 for DSP but I'm not sure how much I would enjoy it now if I'm having to worry about defending against alien swarms. Part of it's charm for me was how chill it was.
