I’m so TIRED…

Also a fan of Young Sheldon, frustrated we missed season 7 and can't find it on any streaming service without having to pay a small fortune.

In the meantime we are patiently waiting for the next season of Resident Alien, also another great show to listen without having to watch.

Before I forget, if anyone wants a great deal on what I feel are the best all around 1/8 buggy tires I've ever ran these guys are running a promo right now:

I highly recommend the V1 tread pattern with SLW for low grip conditions that most folks are probably bashing around with. I run Medium which is great for higher grip prepped tracks.

I’ve actually been wanting to try Gene’s tires for a minute now… 🍻🤘
 
Damn, well I seriously thought I was the only one… Now I just ganged us all up on Bill’s procedure lol… My bad @bill_delong 😅
I've been following @bill_delong on multiple forums for years now and FINALLY I know his secret o winning!
I just bought the Big Bang box set!!!
(does winner dance!!!)😎
 
I'm allergic to commercials though.
A few dollars to not listen to another social security ad or Camp Lejeune... 😮‍💨 Worth every cent!!!
Meh
Commercials have never bothered me. I use this time to go to the bathroom, get something to eat/drink, check my phone/RCT, etc.

That's what the pause button is for.

Commercials nowadays are freaking terrible. I can't stand watching them either. It's either some medication, or some medication, or some medication, followed by some woke bullcrap that I don't want on my tv.

For me, the pause button is not the same. I don't have control of commercials, and it forces me to take "a break". I find being engrossed into a movie/show a bit taxing. I can't really explain it, but that's just how my short attention span brain is built.
While I like(?) the commercial breaks, I actually don't really pay attention to the commercials themselves. Like I already mentioned, I take that time to do/fidget with something else.

The only time I see commercials is if I am watching something live, like a football game. I stream everything, and with Kodi, they don't have commercials. But I am the same when a commercial comes on. Typically, I check the forum, email, messages, etc during them.

I really hate being a couch potato. But that's the hand I've been dealt. I went in the RC room yesterday and installed two extended axles (driver side) in the 6x6. By the time I was done with that, I had to take a break. A few hours later I installed the other two. But that is about the extent of my ability to sit upright in a chair. 20 minutes at a time tops. It kills me that I have a ton of desire to go work on stuff, and can't. I've thought about bringing the projects to my recliner, but I'd have screws and all kinds of crap getting lost forever. 😜

Being in healthcare, I'm constantly reminded not to take my physical ability for granted. People complaining about having to go to work/school, just ask someone who is physically disabled what they would give to be able to go to work and/or just be able to do regular tasks.

Roger Daltry when asked about playing 2010 Superbowl:

“It’s a strange one,” Daltrey said. “It’s an honour to do it, but it’s only 12 minutes. It’s kind of weird! I suppose it gives people time to take a slash and that’s about it. That’s what you do at half-time isn’t it?! You plan your toilet break!”

Lmao! Biggest annual commecial debuts of the year, boiled down to 1 simple truth... we don't give a sh*t! 🤣🤣🤣
(but we might take one)

1 compressed disc and 1 titanium femur says THIS IS TRUTH!

Yeah, I tell Grey all the time I really miss working. I loved my career. I miss taking a blueprint or computer 3d model and making it into a tangible object. 3d printing fills that void some, but only when my printers are functional 😝
 
I always carry 6 bins of wheels and 1 bin of spare parts to every race event I attend, 2 bins for buggy and 4 bins for truggy, I just finished unpacking from RC Pro Series Round#6, and this photo doesn't include the 6 other bins of unglued wheels in the closet!

Basically we need several tread patterns and several compounds to account for varying track conditions to get the best possible performance package going.
And I thought I had a lot of tires. Wow
 
Anyone seen a straight jacket lying around anywhere? I can’t find mine… 😅

I have problems for sure..
