    People gotta learn the hard way sometimes, not that anyone deserves to get scammed. But for a $100 logo design via a stranger on FB I would half expect not to see any return on that

    It's like those apps now, Fiver and the like. I saw where some lady hired a lawyer on one of those to facilitate her divorce and he took her money and ghosted. Why would you hire a lawyer on one of those lol.

    Bruh could have at least delivered with a shitty AI logo.

    Here's one I just made to illustrate a point, its for a Colorado craft brewery that only makes IPAs... AKA every Colorado craft brewery

    @Tour991 I didn't realize the Kings were playing right now in Ottawa. I had to double check the date, thought maybe I went into work on a Sunday by mistake. I guess it's some holiday in Canada that's why. Game sounds like it's going pretty rough.

    I wish I'd caught it when the first tire that had issues was replaced. I would've requested replacement on both if they hadn't hidden the extra weight from me with the clip on weights.

    I just went through every all terrain available for 265/75R16 and I'm not sure I want any of them, the 16" tire size list is getting shorter than it was 5 years ago. Maybe the Cooper Discoverer Rugged Trek is the move and I need to step up to 17" wheels. But that's a whole different headache dealing with wheel fitment again.

    Rant over, I'll leave everyone alone now lol.

    Bro how the fuck do you find these images :rofl:
    I can't believe that you bought those, they have such a hilarious vibe of a Chinese company picking random masculine words to name their shit.

    Nope, people don't care and that would have required extra steps and they weren't about to do that.

    No they left him in. Kemper wasn't the problem. No one wanted to play defence.

    Figures. Still though..wonder why they didn't pull him. Even if the goalie isn't the issue it is pretty brutal on the goalie's confidence/mentality to be left out to dry like that for 8 goals

    See: Roy rage-quitting Montreal back in the 90s after they left him in a game for 9 goals lol. That worked out well for Colorado though the next year.

    I have my sources


    They're Thai though, and the Thai make a lot of good tires. The name is a bit unfortunate, but my tire shop guys locally love em too. Owner of the shop runs em on his Bronco and was saying they did well in winter.

    That's a helluva wheelbase. I've seen chopped but not extended chassis version.

    Not yet. In my attempt to avoid larger nightmares for smaller ones I've been patiently holding out for a clean, later F31 wagon with the B48 but they rarely pop up. Though earlier ones do and a 2015 with the N20 jumped on my radar and so I've been too deep down the timing chain tunnel. First because they changed the guides in 2015 and I was trying to find when exactly they did, production date wise, then just filling in the gaps as far as what to expect etc. You always run up against that real world versus forum world and the truth usually seems somewhere in the middle.

    My advice is leave the N series engines behind. Don't be afraid to accept a b58 though
