Things That Are Bothering You, Got You All Hibbeldy-Jibbeldy, or just downright pissed, RIGHT NOW!

i am hugely into racing sim games, and yes, i did play the original pole position and no sarcasm - Mario kart is one of the best racing games ever

I’ve never built a sim rig though - mainly because I don’t have the space for one.

Same. could build the set. then add the bits.
It could be a spot of fun. SF Speed battles.

But the steering wheel and pedal box is 3k?
5k for a setup?
Crazy.

 

[jbarwick]

But when you think about it, you can get a ton of use out of a sim rig vs. a track day once in a while.

Yeah, we joked about a column shift Kei car Series.

But no. the future of Hooning seems to be online.
Space in the house is the big problem.

I always knew you were the Queen of Rainbow road.

Speaking of racing, I just bought my 5 yo this and it seriously rocks. Everything I wanted as a kid and more. Gonna see if I can find some more track. My boy and his twin sister played with it for like 4 hours on their birthday.

Of course you love pole position.

Woman told to take down Halloween decorations of pole-dancing skeletons

She said the entire thing is based on an adult club called "The Candy Shop" and shows different skeletons in different positions on poles every night.

Lol stupid HOA.

"She received a letter on Sunday saying she has 30 days to remove the decorations."

So maybe not stupid HOA? Like maybe the discussion went like this:
"Ugh, that annoying bitch Cynthia over on Whispering Deer complained about the stripper skeletons. Again."
"Well shit, I mean, technically it is a violation, I guess."
"But it's funny and Cynthia is a cunt!"
"Yeah, but she'll just make our lives miserable if we don't do something."
"Ok, Halloween's, what Saturday, right? How about we send a letter telling them it's a violation and they have 30 days to comply? They're gonna take it down after Halloween anyway, and it'll piss off Cynthia."
"Nice!"

Sounds kinda like the HOA is doing her a solid:

"She received a letter on Sunday saying she has 30 days to remove the decorations."

Some asshole nimby probably complained to the HOA and insisted they act... So they sent her a letter demanding she take down her Halloween decorations before Thanksgiving.

Why would you say "it's modeled after an adult club" and not "we're trying to promote fitness. pole dancing is a great full body workout"?

 

[Piobaire]

Because Halloween = "slutty."

google changed the icon for gmail.

Now I keep ending up with multiple gmail tabs open because I don't immediately recognize it, think I must have closed it, and then open a new tab.

Gmail will gain you entry to the plebe thread.
I have a dot mac address.
You can't even GET those anymore.

I have my actual name @ gmail (although I don't really use that account) because my accounts date back to when it first started and you needed an invitation just to open one.

My wife does use her actual name @ gmail, but it is kind of a pain in the ass because idiots who have her name keep trying to register for things (or apply to college) using her email address.
