1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

teenage years are gonna be fun

I already get all kinds of attitude from Sofia but at this stage it's just cute and funny.

She takes phrases we say to her and then uses them against us, lately it's been "you need to LISTEN TO MY WORDS" any time I ask her something she feels she's already answered

 

Why you asking a toddler to repeat herself? She barely just learned the damn things and now you're trying to play 20 questions.

 

Fuck that's deep!

Dude I need to record a video of Theo giving me attitude; you're like bro he's only 4 months old.

You haven't seen fierce determination until he sees a bottle and he lunges full force trying to grab it out your hands while yelling out like Tarzan

ALL FROM A 4 MONTH OLD

 

the one that really backfired was talking to her about how she has options and the ability to say no when/if someone asks her to do something she doesn't want to do. Pertaining to people other than us, teachers, etc of course, understanding the difference between things you need to do vs things you don't necessarily. But toddlers don't understand nuance very well.

she LOVES to use that one when it's time to get ready for bed or clean up her messes, etc

 

Should be a full set off a 1st gen. They work fine on 2nd gen. I'v been running a set since last summer.

 

Bought a very thorough looking press kit. Gonna hopefully knock out all the land cruiser bushings.

 

Oh @CS_AR I forgot to mention this...only remembered now as I was looking through my pics from Saturday



My uncle's 1972 Plymouth Road Runner sitting by the side of his house; has the bigger 400 or 426 Hemi in it.

Used to sit in his front driveway but he got sick and tired of the many people offering to buy it over the last few decades. Turning down $20k at a time even.

He's the original owner and even though he won't sell it, hasn't put any time or money to restore it

 

Just letting it rot away, shame too cause the earlier you start taking care of them again the less it costs to get em decent.

 

Perfect

 

It really is

Went to the backyard and got introduced to 2 little chubby dogs, cause my family was throwing a BBQ for us

Saw they got rid of the pool and stuff only to say "holy shit you can access the side of the house"

Went back there and boom, the RR

Didn't say much cause I know he loves that thing so I just kept it with "ah so you moved it, gonna work on it soon I hope?" and that's it.

He just became a grandpa as my cousin had her first baby who's now a month old; yeah he's going to be too busy for that

 

Fucking chaos.

 

We plan on going again in a few weeks when Stephanie takes some baby bonding time; it's crazy just how much time she can get off just for the baby.

Was off from March through Aug (today she started again) and will take another 6 weeks off from Oct to Nov...only to have Christmas vacation time off again shortly after.

In short, I'll try to snag some more pics for ya.

 

Work wants me to write a summary about the masters program I wanna go into. Guess they might pay for some of it

 

*chatgpt has entered the chat

 

No no no

 

Yeah but emo was/is a (milder) form of rebellion so if they weren't around, who we gonna rebel against?
Our black hair would've meant nothing.
(I kid, but I did shamelessly like the music)

Giving medicine is the worst. Never had to do ear drops, fortunately. But oral syringes are the bee's knees for oral medication and little ones.

 

new shift knob finally ordered for the 4runner, OEM one looks like trash. Doubt this knockoff will last 20+ years but it'll do for now
