Thats it-- i’m adding weatherstripping under my toilet seat

It gums up the carburetor and fuel lines. i’m told. The way it was explained to me is that small engines don’t get hot enough to burn that shit off completely, whereas it’s fine in modern cars. I’m not a mechanic, so I don’t know if that’s 100% correct. All I know is it made sense to repair the $1800 snowblower, and didn’t make sense to have the $120 string trimmer repaired (though I did try everything I knew to try in attempt to revive it on my own before replacing it).

Interesting note, before i switched to Rec fuel, my inexpensive poulan chainsaw was left with old 87 octane in it for 5 years, completely unused during that time. Then I fired it up with that old gas in it. And it still runs to this day. So I guess you never know. Sometimes you can get lucky, I suppose.

I’ve lost machines to bad/old gas. Now I only use rec gas (ethanol free) in anything that isn’t a car. It’s more expensive per gallon but overall less expensive than the $300 it cost me to get my snowblower fixed, plus the money i lost when my string trimmer died in the same year. I do have to drive five minutes further to fill my gas cans tho.

“Dont be a dick” is a fine philosophy.

I dont know how to solve the problem of not wanting rules but people being outrageous dicks to the detriment of the overall community. I simply don’t like rules, and i like the people who enact them and their lackies that enforce them even less than the rules themselves. Dicks be dickin tho, and that always sucks a big one.

Anyhoo… Thanks to all of the artists who share their content here. I very much enjoy it. I do my own little single panel comic, but im afraid to share.

I’m opposed to rules, but I support this philosophy. It would be a nice request to make of everyone who shares something.

I dont understand your response to my comment.

Judges who turn out to be secret pedos tend to have a record of sentencing maximums against pedos in their court. It’s a thing.

All I was saying is people who are boisterous in their hatred of pedos can be pedos maybe as much as people who want to debate it philosophically (so called apologists, or whatever).

It’s a detestable crime and im not suggesting otherwise and im not suggesting anything about the victims.

Perhaps I misspoke.

Isnt it a thing, tho, where judges who are also secretly doing X come down harder on people doing X than other crimes? And I think that’s true for all people, not just judges. Has to do with not wanting to seem like youre wishy washy on the rules for that crime so nobody suspects you…

Why does a general strike have to be organized? All folks have to do is stop buying things or spending money as much as possible. The fucking country would grind to a halt. The amount of shit that we buy that we dont need is staggering… Probably daily you buy something (likely multiple things) that you dont need. And here’a the thing: you have to be ready to suffer. No change will come to us if we continue to prioritize comfort and convenience.

And if you have to go to work, do the bare minimum to stay employed. Some may say to actively sabotage, but i wouldnt say that or think it, so you should not actively sabotage the company you work at.

A general strike for one-day is silly. Any company can weather one day.

Gaht Damm… I was on the Ohio Turnpike and got Sbarro… Two slices of pie was like $15. Theyre huge slices, but not $15 huge.

When I lived in Seattle, I loved eating a bag of Dick’s.

Y’all are gonna end up with a Pizza Gate situation. We need real leaders who will hire an effective DOJ to investigate and charge the monsters in a timely but just manner. We need a new viable party.

I raise my own meat chickens (cornish cross). They see sunlight and get fresh pasture at least two times per day (chicken tractor). They eat bugs, worms, frogs, and grass, and anything else they might encounter, as well as meat bird food.

They taste much better than the factory birds you can buy at grocery stores. I dont know that i would describe the taste as “a world of difference,” but definitely much better.

Plofkip sounds terrible.

Holy wah… #2 is a deal breaker for sure. So sad.

When I was a manager, I refused to discuss another employee with their coworker. If you want a raise, tell me why you deserve a raise for what you do. And I was very careful to only put established company policy in writing, everything else was “let’s circle back to that in person when we’re both at the office.”

Look at you go! Go, man, go!

^ this guy brooms.

I don’t mean to brag, but my broom is only a week old. Dusts off shoulder

There was a guy in Texas who thought a big tobacco company would settle out without showing, but instead he got counter sued to the tune of millions. That man? Rusty Shackleford.

There’s a good documentary about it.
