    Funny Pictures Thread. It begins again

    How about phones that you had to dial by putting your finger into the hole on the dial, spin it around to the stop, wait for it to finish going back before dialing the next number? (rotary phone) We had one of these when I was younger. My parents told me about when they had a "party line" for...

    Here's one to go with that and a few of my own Finding a book in the school library required learning (at least the basics of) the Dewey Decimal System, then looking in a card catalog (with actual cards) to see if the library had it, then searching the library for the that particular number or...

    Whine like a baby, now with 500% more drama!

    I am so excited that the puppies we are fostering (and the mom) will be leaving this weekend through next week - it's great and all to see the cuteness overload, but the wake up at 4 AM due to them all howling, then again at 7 AM. We've had them just a month, but when all 7 get started, they're...

    fucking alienware keyboard. Help?

    Have you checked for updated drivers for the keyboard? Do you have a regular keyboard when you are at home which leave the number lock/scroll lock on?

    [TV] Talk about the last TV you watched, the catchall thread

    As a "Critter" and someone who backed them during their kickstarter, I'm glad to hear that someone who isn't familiar with them is enjoying it. Granted, my wife, who isn't a fan of the streaming show, likes it, but she likes other fantasy stuff. If you are familiar with D&D enough, you can...

    [Other] Sad but amazing at the same time... (video links)

    So I've been following this YouTube channel for a couple of years, but I don't think I've ever shared this here - I have posted it on Facebook, though. The group is called Adventures with Purpose - they are a diving crew that started off to clean up the environment, but have branched into...

    Build your own computer guide

    I am wanting to go from a laptop to a desktop so I can have upgrades a heck of a lot easier (other than RAM), but the chip shortage prices right now are making me have the same reaction - esp. since I'd have to get everything...

    Weird weather

    The town I used to live in in Kentucky (until we moved to Illinois this past summer) was untouched by the tornados, but towns around it were hit (one about 20 min east was heavily damaged too). It's a couple of hours north-east from Mayfield. My mother-in-law and sister-in-law still live that...

    If they work out best for you, then that's all that matters in the end... You can get Road Hazard at Walmart in their $25 per tire mounting package instead of the $15 tire mounting, provided you buy them at/through Walmart. Yeah, they're pretty good - especially being able to see customer...

    Those don't fit my Impreza (15" tires) - smallest those go are 16" - PureContact TX goes down to 15", but has worse reviews.

    An Automotive Thread

    Walmart and Amazon don't always match the tire sizes exactly. You can also look at the exact size that it came from the factory with that sticker on the pillar, on tire vendor sites, in the printed manual, and other sellers, but also verify that the tires on it are the same size (for those who...

    Halloween 2021

    First year for us doing Trick or Treat handouts - since my son is now 13 and didn't have any interest in going out anymore. Since we just moved to our new place earlier this year, we weren't sure how many people would come. Sat ourselves up in our driveway (we're in a corner lot) and had...
