    My original plan was to survive until May when they all leave. One guy is married and his wife is dragging him to grad school with her, one girl is transferring schools, and the last guy is buying a house. But I'm not sure I want to endure another 6 months of this. Think the September fender bender was when I started getting upset. I graduate this month so I'd have to make my move in December. Just too much going on right now.

    My landlord texts me when she's going to be here fertilizing the lawn. Zero surprises. Your landlord needs to do better.

    Yeah the man doesn’t text. I think I said this when my roommate (air compressor guy) and I had that falling out. Lack of communication causes tons of avoidable bs. I over communicate sometimes which people don’t like but at least it’s mostly clear where I stand on things.

    Yeah communication is super important. Drives me nuts when people just expect you to be cool with random stuff all the time.

    Reminds me of a guy i was buying something off of on craigslist. He wanted me to confirm at every little step that I was going to be there, that I had money, because he didn't want to get stood up.

    Then he's late, never says shit, and then after walking around a store for 30 minutes I text him and he's like "yeah some stuff came out. Can we just meet tomorrow?" I just ghosted him, no time for that.

    I've had great results with Napa's rotors in the past on several vehicles though I'd opt away from 'slotted' or 'drilled' variants.

    The 'cooling' isn't necessary for our vehicles, and even if we had racecars, I'd opt for a premium brand rotor as cheaper variants have a tendency to crack.

    Took me awhile to figure Dish and DirectTV were just a waste of money seeing as how they both have gone up in pricing by a lot over the years, and I was watching less and less TV anyway.

    Hell, Netflix doesn't even get turned on much...but that's free anyway.

    Slotted like, like those, are less likely to crack. I won't do drilled rotors at all.

    Plus, the Ultra Premium variant has a Limited Lifetime warranty where as the Premium don't.

    Remember when people had those Descramblers and you'd let it sit for a few hours until you got free Paperview to watch the big fight?

    Shit, showing my age :anonymous:

    Nice to have the warranty, but if it were me, I'd opt away from slotted or drilled.

    Personal preference of course :fistbump:

    Sometimes if you open the choke all the way it'll idle that way. If you then close the choke and it dies, then you've got a clogged pilot jet. At least thats how mine is.
