My friend has a recent Fit with a 5-speed manual, and blasting around at low speeds in it was a blast, although I didn't get to drive it for myself.
I'm on pace to replace the radiator in my jeep for the 3rd time in 3 years. I think I may need to invest in a new automobile.

You should get a Toyota Tacoma.
I've had two and I can tell you with certainty that they fix themselves and do not require oil, coolant or transmission fluid.

Speaking of, Camaro is down again, its either the starter or something in the electrical system that's draining batteries after the car is turned off. Gotta either attempt to jump it again or have it towed to a mechanic, but first I need money to fix it :(
nick im telling you we just take the best parts of both our jeeps, combine them into one nice jeep, sell it, and then buy two new (shitty) cars of the same model, drive them until they begin to fall apart, then repeat the process.
I'm officially setting Wednesday as my last day at work. That is, Wednesday September 3rd. My last day was originally supposed to be August fucking 8th. I wouldn't have minded sticking around so long but this new system is such a heaping pile of shit that I can't take it anymore. The system itself fucks up so many times a day, on top of the amount of times the checkers fuck up, combined with the customers fucking up/being stupid that I literally spend all day fixing other people's fuckups that I don't have time to get my actual work done and I'm exhausted by the time I get home(usually around 11:30/midnight), so when I wake up at 6:30 the next day for school I'm so drowzy I can't pay attention to class for shit, I'm already in the hole for English(my least favorite subject), and I'm not staying on top of math homework as well as I'd like. When I agreed to go to customer service, I knew I would have to be doing a shit ton of critical thinking. Everyone elses jobs, save management, is structured as shit. Anything that comes up, there's something written down somewhere that specifically tells them, step by step, how to handle it. If something stumps them, they dump it on me or management. I was fine with having to think critically. I love that shit. What I didn't expect was having to think critically for both myself and 90% of the fucking employees in the store. Like really some of the shit they do, and shit that they can't figure out baffles me. Oh, and get this. Minimum recently got raised to 9.00. Which is starting for customer service. So all the fucking courtesy clerks(baggers, cart people, janitors, etc) got a raise, and now make as much as me, while I don't get shit and get payed just as much for keeping the safe(with $40,000+ in cash, not to mention thousands in lotto tickets, stamps, etc) secure and balanced as the guy who wipes shit off the toilet seats. Yea, that's gonna make me love my job
TL;DR working customer service at Safeway is one of the most frustrating things in my life

The only maintenance its ever needed is plugs and wires. Regular oil changes of course as well. It does leak every kinda fluid you put in it though... radiator, differential, oil, window washing, etc. Also no cruise control (which is a HUGE PITA to replace soooo) and a dead AC compressor that I need to replace (and probably will in the next few days actually) but hey it starts everytime, only has 128k miles and I paid $750 for it

This seems to be a general rule for light trucks
So in all the defensive-oriented Red Dragon missions the easy way to beat them is to hide a single CV in the forests at the edge of the map and wait out the timer until draw. Throw all your other units at naval landings and battles. Win the game.
Boss invited me to a party, bad news is.. half the guys there are a bunch of coked up wannabes.
Free food though.
So after being without a functioning computer for a week+, I finally got a new laptop for my birthday yesterday.
Fuck I hate Win8. Can someone link me one of those replacement UIs to make Win8 function like Win7? I remember them coming up in conversation here on IFAP a while back but I can't remember who posted them or what they were called, IIRC there were like 2-3 that were brought up.
When you have to offer a service to [I]downgrade[/I] your product back to the previous model, you know you fucked up :v:
so i found a pristine 60s Volvo p1800 for like 8.5k
but its in Beverly hills
guess i gotta stock up on gas money.......

You might've found it already but this works pretty well [url]http://www.classicshell.net[/url]
I personally use start8 and disable all the edges and corners. runs just like windows 7 but faster.
I got Start Menu 8 (similar to Start8 but free and a little better IMO) and this other one called ModernMix that gives you proper windows back instead of fucking everything running full-screen all the time. ModernMix is made by the same people as Start8 though so it's on a free trial, guess I'll have to look for a free alternative.
I have to say though Windows 8 works really well with my Surface Pro but it just doesn't work very well natively without a touchscreen
So I'm moving out of my parents place in couple day. Finally have my freedom! Also you east fappers should visit me :(.
We use 8 at work and I'm really not a fan of it.
My home set up is nice and minimalist running on 7. I've got ample space on the task bar to pin regularly used programs so I can keep short-cuts to a minimum.

that choice of shortcuts lmao
[IMG]http://puu.sh/beBTH/3d18a81f86.jpg[/IMG]
Once again nearly most of the games I own are on steam so that's literally all I regularly use from time to time, once I'm done with a game I'll just delete the shortcut and remove the game. So my short-cuts are just whatever I'm playing that week.
Desktop time?

I always like to keep my desktop as clean and organized as I possibly can.

Mine used to be messy, now I just make folders on my hard drive and forget about files there. Start menu instead of desktop shortcuts. My Chrome bookmarks are the worst though.
This isn't even my laptop.

Organization? What is that?
Got a Bolt B4 in the Evike Box of Awesomeness. Almost a $400 gun so I thought it would be pretty cool but the gun proved my ass wrong. 50 rounds through? Stripped a tooth on a gear. Replaced all the gears because I could and at 100 rounds through, I'm pretty sure the piston just stripped. Yay life.

Not sure whether to rate Dumb for actually buying a Mystery Box/BoA, Winner for actually winning something worthwhile, or Friendly since all of your luck seems to have instantly ran out.
Should've sold it for instant turnaround profit. The Bolt BRSS has like the "best" EBB or something.
