PennSilverTaco's "Perfect 5-Lug Regular Cab" Build, Aspergers, and General BS MegaThread!

I keep forgetting to post this...

In early February, my girlfriend and I were dismantling a Heil central A/C unit that I basically stole for twenty bucks, and the neighbor's teenager daughter happened to be walking by my house. She got very excited and said she had something to show me. She told me that she had taken a picture of my truck decorated for the 2022 holiday season as I was returning home...

 

She immortalized my truck in a painting for a college project, and I have to say that it turned out incredible!

 

@Stitchgirl90 and I are painting her bedroom...

 

(Bump)

 

Oh that's always festive. Remember, no holidays!!

 

You are the first person I've seen wear a respirator when painting a bedroom.
But I'm an ol' hillbilly that doesn't think about things like that.

I get in there, get it done, and then wait a week or two for the paint to "wear off" of me.

 

I don't like the smell...

 

Does anybody remember the Day & Night 2.5-ton unit that I picked up in Bristol earlier this month? Today, @Stitchgirl90 and I went back for the oil furnace that I was also promised...

 

Tight squeeze in the guy's driveway!

 

Dismembering a sooty old oil furnace with a sawzall is a good reason to wear a respirator!

I love the band KISS; I first heard the song "Rock and Roll All Nite" as a kid in the late 1990s or early 2000s, then I heard "Strutter" on the in-game radio station while driving in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas in 2004, and "Lick it Up" the same way in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories in about 2006-2007. I started watching Gene Simmons: Family Jewels (back when A&E actually knew how do reality shows; Hardcore Pawn and Duck Dynasty were the last good ones in my opinion) in 2007-2008 and became a fan of that show. I have quite a few KISS songs on my iPod, and I will shamelessly blast them in my truck with the windows down on a nice day (or night).

I was doing just that tonight (cranking the "Alive" version of "Rock and Roll All Nite") with the driver's window down. There was a late model Jeep Grand Cherokee in front of me, and another late model Grand Cherokee next to it. There were two kids in the second Grand Cherokee, one in the backseat and one riding shotgun; I will never know if they were gesturing at me or the people in the Jeep that was in front of me, because the people in both Jeeps seemed to be together, and ended up turning into the same neighborhood. These little punks could hear my stereo, and the kid in the front seat appeared to give the loser "L" sign...

Whatever...

I love KISS!

When @Stitchgirl90 is in the truck, I crank Shania Twain; I am one of those rare straight guys who will admit to liking Shania Twain, but I am not brave enough to crank it when I'm driving solo. However, when I've got my girlfriend with me, it looks a bit less weird!

It's not like the kid flipped me off or anything, but it's just another statistic. People have been becoming bigger and bigger assholes for years, and parents don't know how to raise their kids; COVID exacerbated the problem, and in my opinion the whole world is going to be fucked up for a couple of generations because of it.

I could care less what people (regardless of their age) think of my musical preferences, but it makes me worry for those kids down the road, because some nutcase won't take too kindly even to being flashed with the "L" sign and might react violently.

 

I don’t care what people think about the music I listen too.
I had a girl ask me the other day, “What song was that?” When I pulled into the gas station.
Quicksand Jesus by Skid Row was the song. It’s kind of got a slow “chick” sound to it.
But I like what I like,………

 

Wish I was seeing them live soon with Lzzy Hale fronting

 

Exactly, someone gonna do something more than just keep driving. Though I submit that it ain't just kids nowadays

 

Me too. Lizzy is great. Like Halestorm’s stuff a lot to. Good group.

 

Seen Halestorm several times and never a bad show. Though personal favorite was a few years ago co-headlining with the Pretty Reckless
