  • One tire is low: check engine light.

    Glove box open: check engine light.

    A leaf is in the hood: check engine light.

    Cold outside: check engine light.

    Hot outside: check engine light.

    Tachyon Field Distortion: check engine light.

  • It's a sad day.

    Because of the cold front rolling in, I decided to pull all of the tomatoes on my last producing plant. This thing started pumping out little juice-popping 'maters around June and never stopped. Hundreds and hundreds of spheres of deliciousness.

    Dearest plant, if you don't survive the chill, thank you for your service.

    These just go out with the other recycling, right?
  • If your city has a hazardous waste disposal location, you can take them there. In my area, it's the same place that i take old paint and stain, batteries, solvents, tube tvs etc. our area has two dumps but only one of them takes hazardous materials, so I would do a little research.

  • Nothing I Buy Works
  • I think about this a lot. Three years ago, I spent a lot of money redoing my kitchen. Felt like it was way too much for what I was getting but was told this was a 10-15 year thing. Flash forward 1 manufacturer's year warranty.

    Ice maker in my fridge stopped working two weeks after the warranty ran out. I've paid to have it replaced once, and then they came back to fix it under their warranty, but said they wouldn't again because it was a design flaw in the manufacturing. It currently doesn't work.

    The "brushed aluminum" trim is basically a giant silver decal that is currently peeling off of my oven, microwave, and dishwasher.

    Speaking of the oven, the igniter has burned out three times. The guy that replaced the first one showed me how to do it again because he was surprised that this one lasted that long. They go bad about every 3 months so you might as well learn how to change it. "These are pure shit, " he said. The manufacturer's part is $78 and is not warranty if you put it in. A generic ignitor is $18 and has a one year warranty.

    Stuff is not made to last at fucking all. I feel like we're being fleeced.
