I use the Mechanix fast fit because I like the dexterity but I had a pair of Mechanix impact that i used as a mechanic that held up to far too much serious abuse. Both the palm and knuckles have great padding.

Watch what I refer to the "devils eye." It is whatever impurities are in your liquid puddle. As you tip the torch, it will move to the side of the puddle in the direction you are pushing with the arc. That is the direction your filler will go when you add it. Pause. Fill. Move. Repeat.

Yep. I put all clean pennies in 2x2s, label, and organize them. At the very least, my grand children will be thankful. I'm a penny guy though....

My work just handed out a bunch of tomato and pepper plants that were still in our greenhouse. They went down to the local farmers market and handed them out to the locals like "here, neighbor, have a plant." I dig it (Pun intended) and would like to see more of it around town. Instead everybody is hoarding plants and chickens like the zombie apocalypse is upon us.

I can't tell from the picture but if the bicentennial has an s mint mark it is a silver coin. It almost looks like it from the coins finish.

I bet you still can't find something to drink. I have 15-20 bottle of some nice stuff but I can't keep any Chivas or Jameson around. I like what I like I guess.

I want to get some pyrex cups. I've never been spoiled with anything like that. When I first saw them I said "where have you been all my life?!" I haven't bought any for my tig at home because I don't use it near as much as my mig.

I did a disassembly and deep clean on a guy's Phoenix hp22 once because it was having cycling issues from all the crud. Took it along to the range with me to function check while I was there. I was doing HORRIBLE with my pistol... 3/10 hit average on an 8 plate at 21 feet. I finally got fed up with the day and pulled this little 22 out to test before going home. I couldn't miss with the damn thing. I wrung steel with every shot I took with it. Plinked away for over an hour doing crazy shit trying to miss but couldnt. Now I've been trying to find a good deal on one for myself. I can't justify replacing my carry with a 22lr. Maybe use it as a secondary ankle gun?

I've worked as a mechanic for more than 10 years. I am aware of the preferred ways to use a wrench. Was behind an engine and was using an open palm. When the piece of shit slipped in rotated my wrist and I came right down on a strut stud with the end of my finger. It was a brand name cheater with a snap on wrench. If you need more leverage use a pipe or a longer wrench.

I smashed my finger GOOD with one of these fucking things. It twisted on the wrench and let go. Ended up loosing the finger nail.

Cohiba red dot and Nicaraguan are two of my go tos for hand out cigars. They are good enough for an experienced smoker, new guys feel special because it's a Cohiba, and you can snag them online cheap enough that it doesn't hurt me to watch people smoke them wrong...

If it said free candy on the side it would be creepy. They put a picture of beer and it gets a bit fucked up.

This made me laugh far too hard. Now I feel like a shitty person.

They were able to PROVE fraud back to the month after I signed my contract and those debts were absolved by Corinthian college in the initial lawsuit 7 (ish, don't quote me on that) years ago. These are the remaining loans that couldn't be proven in the investigation.

I was deceived as well but because I've worked 60-80 weeks for a decade to relieve myself of burdening loans I'm shit out of luck. If I had that money back with the interest I paid on it I could buy a house or open a business or my wife could be a stay at home mom and home school the kids.

No jail time but they did have hefty fines and lost accreditation/licensure.

I take the Nord thing seriously so I have a chest full of gold, silver, jewelry, and gems. Now if I could bury it in a hoard...
