I'll start. And keep your f***ng politics out of here. What the heck is going on with bread and toilet paper? A square of toilet paper is now the size of...

Walterjn It's nut juice.

That reminds me of my ex wife.

For 2 reasons. 🤣

Walterjn that's because it's not milk. It's nut juice.

It doesn't come from Almond Cows? Damn......

Scammers are everywhere. My nephew prevented his mother (my sister) from getting scammed. My sister found an outdoor patio dining table with chairs made by Polywood on Facebook in Palm Bay Florida.

We have some Polywood. It’s very expensive. Anyway, it was listed at $400.00. My sister got them to come down to $300.00. Extremely cheap price. The pictures looked like new.

She called my nephew who is vacationing at their home in Sebastian Fl. and asked if he could go and pick it up. Maybe 30 minutes away. Or for $70.00 they could deliver it.

He asked for the phone number. My sister never talked to anyone only through texts. The red flag was when my sister told him they wanted the money paid thru Venmo. My sister has no idea what Venmo is. My nephew called several times and got no answer.

Obviously a scam. The Polywood set never existed. Wonder how many get scammed like this? Not on Facebook, but it seems like it’s ripe for scammers.

Happens all the time on the FB golf sites.
And after repeated warnings from mods and members, people still let themselves get taken.

Scammers & hackers.....need to die!!

Bravopilot Well there you go. Myself, I stopped last year. Always been dairy intolerant but like milk (skim of course, like real men) and ice cream.

I have coupons for free ice cream and dairy products . Occasionally I’ll get a quart of ice cream but it’ll last 6 months or so

Typhoon Coupons, from Walmart? Now you tell us😁Did I ever mention what a great dude you are?😎

Watching TV with my daughter yesterday and we see a commercial for sour cream, except it's in a hard plastic squeeze bottle like you often find mayo in these days. Both my daughter and I thought that was a good idea because we use a bit of sour cream and won't have to dirty up a spoon or knife. So, effective ad. I go to the grocery store this morning and I look in the sour cream section to see if they have it. Nope, they have a squeezable dispenser, but it looks more like a large, soft toothpaste tube. I thought, that looks like an accident waiting to happen, but decided to give it a shot anyway. Get home, have to haul everything from the curb because I let my wife park in the garage, so I grab all eight bags so as to make just one trip. I get to the door and reach in my pocket to get the keys and one bag slips out of my hand and falls two feet to the floor. Side of sour cream tube splits open spilling all over the bag. Bite me Daisy!

This is why I don't buy shit from Facebook.

Typhoon

Bravopilot Ha! No the coupons are from the manufacturer and can be used anywhere that takes coupons. I had a bunch that were expiring and I’d go in my stores and leave them on the shelf…. A gift for the customers

Has anyone seen Mike Hunt?

Why isn’t the location of men’s and ladies rooms standardized?? When you go to where the restrooms are ladies rooms on the left, men’s room on the right…. It should be a law. I’d say 80% are like that but sometimes I go into a Walmart, peel off to the right, get in there and don’t see any urinals. I’m like, “ fuck… ladies room”. Sure enough, ladies room on the right.

That's like wandering off into the wilderness, you're lucky you make it back out of there alive

Don't think it matters anymore?

Typhoon

jsippy73 I had a woman walking in front me and into the men’s room. She saw the urinals, looked back at me startled. I said, I don’t care which one you use…

Bravopilot

Typhoon The maintenance folks shared flight hrs to pick up a little flight pay and use to have this on Electronic Warfare mnx lady fly with us and she always used the stand urinal on the plane. Not easy to use in the BUFF. She always warned if anybody looked "she would slap our face off". Plus, she was married to an Electronic Warfare officer.

It was tricky using the urinal in flight.

Typhoon

Bravopilot Hate to b the person that has to clean that bathroom

Bravopilot

Typhoon No bathroom, a singe tall can piss in. Right by the lower hatch to exit/enter the plane. Don't mess with the hatch during flight, very bad. Since we wear helmets, I always tucked my helmet into the airframe to help stabilize from turbulence and missing the hole.

Crew chiefs, in my day, just emptied the urinals against the rear tires and chocks after parking. Bet they have a more environmental way now. At one time most B-25 bases when closed made the Superfund lists for cleanup.

Lots of corrosion due to urinals. They actually hold AF-wide meetings to discuss fixes.

IT NEVER ENDS…. When people get behind the wheel, 92% of their brains refuse to get in the car with them.

So, I’m waiting—waiting what feels like an eternity—for this prime parking spot. I’m watching this person tediously load groceries in the back of their car, one bag at a time, like they contain highly explosive material. Naturally they leave the empty cart right next to the car beside them.

They finally get in their car, and now it’s like everything is foreign. Here’s the ignition, here’s the headlight and turn signals, here’s the windshield wipers. Let me adjust the seat again, because you never know when these little fairies sneak into your car and mess with the seat position and mirrors while you’re shopping! Sunglasses! Gotta put those on!

Now they’re making a call? WTF! What are they doing? refinancing their mortgage? Let’s pull out already!

Finally they start backing out. And just as I’m about to claim my rightful place—this other guy, this Johnny-come-lately, rounds the corner, throws on his blinker like it’s some kind of magic parking wand, and suddenly he thinks he has dibs!

No, no, no! That’s not how this works! I was here first! The person waiting always has the right of way! This isn’t a game of “who blinks first”—it’s first come, first park you sneaky bastard! It’s mine!

And what’s worse? This is probably the only time this guy has ever used his turn signal! Oh, now he knows how it works! The same guy who changes lanes like he’s playing Mario Kart suddenly thinks the blinker is a binding legal document? GTFO with your blinker crap!

And now we’re locked in this awkward standoff—me, sitting there, gripping the wheel like a hostage negotiator, and him, looking at me like, “Well, I put my blinker on.” Oh, congratulations! You also breathed today! Doesn’t mean you get my spot!

I’m inching closer. He’s shaking his head and wagging his finger as he moves closer. Suddenly it dawns on us both that whichever way grandpa backs out will determine who sneaks into this prime parking space at the last second. One of us is going to lose, unless we decide to trade paint over this.

But you know who the real winner is? Grandpa. He’s driving off, sipping his coffee, completely oblivious to the parking war he just left behind.

Do we really need to pick a number and wait, like at the deli counter????

Make it stop!!! This madness has to stop!

Typhoon

PA-PLAYA Who got the parking space?

I’m sick of the golf fitting phrase…” Get Dialed in”…. Fuckin shoot me… they sound like a bunch of….

This week at GG Ada everywhere “Free fittings, get dialed!”. First off, dial spelled backwards is “laid” which is what you’re getting with a free fitting… fucked.

My friend went, ahitty job they did. I gave him 3 shafts to tell them you want to hit and they ended up blowing everything else away that the guy was using Trackman to “fit” him for

Typhoon ” Get Dialed in”

Well, they do all have adapters now. 🤔
