Took the kids to the park to play frisbee. Fed them burgers and beers afterwards. Smoked them up and then dropped them off at home. They will sleep good tonight.

got one pass on the driveway and the snowblower lost drive
It's always one pass

Spent the day working on it, replacing parts in a gear box and said fuck work because snowblowing is lyfe dawg!




No seriously you can't get food here if you can't clear snow.

My new fork finally shipped — I placed the order last Friday and it was in stock. Now I’m waiting for Auspost to actually scan it into their system and do something with it. I have danced this dance with Auspost before. I have to say both these experiences are doing little to dissuade me of my opinion that Australians are a bunch of lazy cunts.

Could you have just gone for new lowers instead?

I need to service my snowblower...

Possibly. I don’t believe there’s a way to do that easily over here in little old Aotearoa though. (Although I didn’t look very hard and I don’t want to know if there is). I am going from a 36 to a 38 though you see, and [definitely coherent and sensible reasons]. :blah:

Replace bushings where driveshafts are.

I think I just did this for the first time in the 27 year life of mine. I only bought it in 2017 so don't judge
I'll check them but it's pretty new, I think it just needs an oil change.

That is Adorbs!


Mine was built in 1994 and cost 450 bucks. It would literally eat and throw your little toy across the street.






Yes I put hondanuts on it.
I am in sheer awe of your MANLINESS!
I have a decent gasser too, but have not needed it once since getting the Fisher-Price Easy Bake Snowblower.
It’s nearly silent, doesn’t smell, and weighs nothing.
It would be useless in Victor, but here in cul-de-sac lane, it’s perfect.
But yeah, probably disposable.

IHOP for dinner, since Wifey had a work call this evening. With an extra 30 min to kill, Haley suggested we go to K1 to knock out a session. So we did.

Um......like every single one of your coworkers and neighbors?
Yes, white. But an ol’ grumpy faced 70 year old white dude with strong Fox News 24/7 vibes. I don’t work with people like that, thankfully.
