1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Was reading to Sofia on our couch and heard a crash on our front porch, thought our porch light fixture fell down or something.

Got her situated and went to look, saw one of Rebecca's planters smashed right in front of the door. Looked down the street and saw a group of skateboarders at the end of the block rounding the corner, checked our camera footage and sure enough. Little punk asses

But seriously I'm gonna booby trap our plants

 

Does Dex have a really dainty Husky bark or does he sound like something actually intimidating?

 

Daaaamn

 

He was literally sleeping 5ft from the door

He has a real deep woof when he wants to, but he is far from a guard dog lol

 

Lol some guard dog, guess y'all don't have fenced yard though huh? You can never tell with Husky's usually they sound like extra loud small dogs.

 

I thought the same thing! To good to be true.

 

Front yard isn't fenced, not too common around here. Our camera is up high in the corner and I think we should lower it so it's more obvious. Kids like that probably look for Ring cameras and it's not immediately obvious that we have a system in place right now.

But yeah, the AKC's rating for Huskies as watch/guard dogs is spot on




What's mine is yours

 

His size is intimidating to some people because he's pretty big and muscular for an average husky, but don't let that fool you. He's basically a 3 year old toddler

 

I think with a husky it's not "What's mine is yours", they're not necessarily good at sharing, they just don't give two shits if its something they don't care about... like try to steal his food... "probably not bitch", take the corner table lamp "eh whatever"

 

Fully grown derpsky, you bout to have three toddlers haha

 

Waiting for pics or footage of this teen angst

 

Yeah I like to think if we were attacked he'd might do something, but tbh he'd probably stand there with his head cocked trying to make sense of what kind of game this was

 

I'm on our walk right now, will grab one when we get home unless Rebecca cleaned it up. I asked her not to though cause it's right outside Sofia's room and she's sleeping now. I'd rather do it in the AM

 

Ohhh no lol I meant the camera footage

 

That sucks. Here, i dont think they would get to the porch before the dogs spoke up. Fuckers hear everything.

 

Me "oh my package is here"

Wife "how do you know?"

Me "well, dogs are growling so they hear a truck or something"

*ring doorbell goes off*

 

I bought shims from https://www.suspensiondirect.com/shop/ it is a hell of a lot cheaper than king but they stop at .015 which stinks. Luckily I had a bunch of .020 in my stuff stock.

Fair warning I really don’t have any experience other than one revalve and a lot of research but talking about it is hopefully how you get better.

Any chance you know how much bleed? I hear leafs like a lot of bleed.

I would leave rebound the same especially with leafs. Lot of friction and unless the rear is rising hard in bump sections it is nice to be soft to stay in contact with the ground.

Can’t remember where I read it ill try and track down the source but from the equation I saw .010 is about half as stiff as a .012, .012 about half as stiff as a .015 and .015 about half as stiff as a .020

So .012 and .008 will be 25% ish more stiff than a .012 but that low in the stack I honestly think you wont see a difference.

To get more info on your situation, how is it on small, medium, and large bumps? Good on small but too soft on large? Or stiff on small and soft on large?

 

You can see him getting ready to toss it here, was right behind the big ass plant we have wisely blocking our only camera

 

Damn dude

Back in our day we'd just knock or ring the doorbell and take off

Smashing someone's shit? Fuck I'd be furious

 

I am but really what can you do, besides try and make it less likely to happen again. Kids being dipshits
