re: Jeep owners, is this how you think we see you when on the road?

which going by your obsession with what vehicle
It’s not the vehicle but it’s impossible not to notice and make fun of the weird owners who go around calling their clan “Jeepers” while saying phrases like “it’s a Jeep thing, you wouldn’t understand” and apparently, claiming it’s a cheat code with the ladies. These people take themselves entirely too seriously to not make fun of them a little bit.

How'd you keep that POS running?
Shocked I got 160k miles out of it. Went through 3 alternators in 3 years at the end before it finally caught fire while driving in rush hour. It was a huge POS inside and out. It did get me through college though, barely.
Regarding Jeeps - I really don’t have much of a problem with them at all and have already said they could be a fun 2nd ride. Don’t think I would ever own one. It is rather easy to rile up some of their owners.

I don't think these people calling Jeep owners gay realize what kind of cheat code simply having a jeep and not being a weirdo was in college
"Sorority girls like them" oh no, how awful
My roommate in college had a Jeep. Not going to lie…it did grab attention from some girls…for about 5 minutes. Then I pulled up in a Ford Escort and stole all that attention just by being better looking and a more interesting person.
Cheat code…good lord.

This right here. This is why Jeep owners are lumped together now days and are generally looked down upon by other men.

actually, new Jeep people hijacked that from old Jeep people.
What is your definition of old vs new…because this was a thing going back 30 years ago…primarily with overweight lesbian looking women.

that said, we dont think about the rest of you at all.
This thread seems to suggest otherwise. And just know, whether fair or not, the very first thought most men have seeing a Jeep is that it is a lesbian vehicle.

The Jeep owner community lost a lot of respect with “It’s a Jeep thing, you wouldn’t understand”. That’s the moment Jeep transformed from a rugged and cool alternative type vehicle to an unreliable, electronic system pos, ugly woman, lesbian, rubber duck collecting, cringe worthy, dorky, old man wannabe, stereotype.

My state is Kentucky and we had Bashear in charge. I will forever hate his guts and the entire Democratic Party for what transpired those years. He stole my daughter’s formative middle school years from her and I question if she’ll ever fully recover.
Yet, all the ignorant liberal women fell for his daily TV chats that “we will get through this” which is now why he’s looking to run for President.

re: If you are reading this board, you owe it yourself to travel internationally

I’ve traveled quite a bit. 48 states and multiple countries. Travel for most people = going to popular tourist destinations where everything is sunshine and roses.
Honestly - most places are exactly as they are described on here. I just reiterated on another thread that it is not a stereotype if it’s always true.
Perspective is to each their own…and not what some a-hole on here tries to tell you what it should be.
This board is a “political board” and that’s is the lens everyone is looking through. If you want to talk about how beautiful California is, do it on the Travel board.

re: Expiration dates on food...

Expiration dates just give me an idea of when I should start paying closer attention. Most items are good well past the date. Sometimes a cheese or bread will surprise me and premature mold on me, but everything else is usually alright for a bit.

Why does a person taking off the jeep doors upset people?
Because everyone has experienced being stopped next to these people at a red light…and the majority of the time these jeep people fit a certain stereotype perfectly. Of course, it’s not a stereotype if it’s always true.

Doors off, top down on a Jeep and just running about on a nice day is fine in the proper setting and is actually really enjoyable. No hate here.
On the interstate…it’s a nightmare. Even a soft top fully enclosed is miserable on the interstate. I did it once and can still hear it.
Owning a Jeep will eventually become rather regrettable overall for most people. The few enjoyable moments pale in comparison to the fact it is a shite product over time and doesn’t meet the daily needs of daily vehicle very well.
It’s a fun second vehicle at its best. If you feel the need to do it, lease it for a couple years and turn it back in when you got your fill.

I've heard Afrin is addictive and can cause a rebound effect if you stop using it.
You are 100% correct.
It’s not necessarily “addictive”…but the rebound effect is so powerful, once you go over the line, you are completely blocked without using it. Then, you can become immune from the effects of the acting ingredient in Afrin to where it no longer works. Then you have to try an alternative ingredient in something like Neo-Synephrine, which doesn’t last as long and you’re hitting it every 30 minutes, buying multiple bottles at a time and always having to have it on you. You can try to wean off or do the dilution method, but the only real way to quit is to gut it out and be a mouth breather for a week or two.
Summary:
FCC chief makes a statement on a podcast that may or may not be a threat, regardless of legitimacy, probably thinking he will look good to his side and not really planning on following through. I don’t believe he had any idea of what would follow.
ABC affiliates followed by ABC see said statement and thank their lucky stars for the gift they just received, which is basically a get out of jail free card in public relations, and pounce.
FCC and the right now look like the bad guys because an idiot FCC chief tried to sound like a bad arse on a podcast.

Kentucky is not good. They, yet again, seem to have a solid defense which is still not good enough to carry the program in the face of bad QB play and an anemic offense overall. Ole Miss will get their revenge and UK will likely go winless in conference play.
A little late but…
Can’t go wrong with Made In.
A really good option not already mentioned is Goldilocks. Actually may be the best quality lower priced option. You have to order straight from their website. It’s just the basics without a lot of pieces, but they got what most need: 10 and 12 fry, 1.5 and 3 sauce, 8 stock, 3.5 sauté pan. Great price for really good pans. You can break the bank later if you want, but you probably won’t want or need to.

Great in theory, but the government can’t run any program effectively. The bloated government contract that would be required to implement would be worse than what’s going on now.
