24 hour Walmart was the best invention EVER!!! Whoever got rid if it should be tarred and feathered!!!

Now whats all this about shopping carts with line locks and alarms???

Were you trying to bust into the store with stolen goods???

Is a flat tire on a shopping cart REALLY gonna slow anyone down?

I don't get it.

I miss going there 3am and blazed and its me myself and I.

If the cart locks up on me I grab another and let tge store deal with tge contents in the last cart.

noticed a new scuff on the front bumper of my truck this afternoon. early this year someone hit it with something and left a white scruff on the bumper. that polished off. now there's a spot that looks like its down to the plastic about 4" over from where the scruff was. idk how this keeps happening, i park in the street but this is happening on the passenger side where nothing can hit it. i park in the alley behind work where it's in my sights all day and nobody parks around it. its rarely in parking lots and when it is i make sure to park away from other cars. like wtf!

You HAVE to warm it up so the dirt dries fast and is a pain to get off.

Our relatively new Sony Bravia smart TV keeps randomly shutting off. It's very annoying.

Tried everything that Sony, Google and AI have suggested but it still does it.
Done a soft reset, factory reset, software update, new batteries in the remote, no batteries in the remote, different power source, power cable is in securely, disconnected the sound system, all power saving, auto off, timers etc turned off. Does it in all apps.

Very disappointing as it's the most expensive TV we have ever bought but has lasted the shortest period.

I have an older Bravia. I'll never buy another. It was fine when I first got it, but after each update it just got worse. Navigating the menu is slow and laggy. Just moving the cursor from one item to another it hangs up. Worst tv I have ever owned.

We are going to check the warranty tomorrow.
It's disappointing. Obviously more expensive doesn't mean better quality.

So we found out why the cable box went out. It wasn’t the cable box, the idiots in the apartment next over built stairs and they screwed through the coaxial cable. the cable is replaced and everything is back to normal.

Minor screw up.

Don't worry, the cable guy will be back tonight to check on you anyway.

The best experience I’ve ever had with a TV are those cheap Hisense Roku smart TV’s. I bought a 60 inch 4k Hisense smart tv in 2019 for $300 NEW… still working to this day and doesn’t lag at all. My only complaint is the screen gets a little dim when it switches to HDR mode. But, playing around with the settings made it a bit better.

You couldn’t pay me money to use a Samsung smart TV. I’d rather chew broken glass… I have an Apple TV hooked up to the Samsung TV in my bedroom because I refuse to use their garbage laggy UI.

I was reclining in my chair while eating my cheetos, but I reclined a little too far and then this happened:

 

[Doom!]

Well, today didn't go as planned. My flying buddy asked me if I wanted to take the trucks out for some crawling and bashing today. That was a step in the right direction, first time he's brought it up first. While being pretty danged hot, the only thing, i need to keep an eye on is motor temps.

Well he called me last night, because he had to cancel on me, he has a sore throat and a fever of 101. Well I thought maybe I'll go anyway, but this morning the air quality was horrible. There must be a good sized fire somewhere, because the air is brown and you can taste the smoke as much as smelling it.

I guess it's back to house chores instead.
