You know what i hate?

You know what I really hate? Every time I go to buy something, it is 3 times the price compared to before covid. The fleecing of America makes me sick to my stomach.
I have to rebuild my pool backflush valve. The plunger piston is a ten inch piece of plastic with 2 two inch o-rings and one small one. The pool store wants $140. The kid says "but it comes with the o-rings and lube". I asked if the lube was for the o-rings or my butt.

Oh, mothers, tell your children
Not to do what I have done
Spend your lives in sin and misery
In the House of the Rising Sun

Har-d-harr-harr!!! Hold on. Let me catch my breath... please...
For those of you who are flubbergasted at kids who don't listen to you, go tell your parents!
HHAAAAA... oh... my... I mean, if you can tell your parents. Can't tell mine a thing without Mistress Laverne of the Crystal Ball and Card. But they would get a stitch if I ever said something like that.
Thanks for the laugh, Ckbrew .

We're having our first tropical storm in 80 years. Should be a real goat rodeo!
I'm hoping it'll be enough to wash it away. The rain will not get the one in the back corner of the lot. You know, the serial poop with sign of after-action clean-up shirt.

And you wonder why I wont live in town!

[SoOrbudgal]

I can relate to that.

Gawd what a nightmare

[Ckbrew]

I hate the aggravation caused by my children, adult children, who still will not listen to a dam thing I tell them.

[Gingerbeard]

I have a general hatred for people who do not pick up after their dogs.
I have a special hatred for serial poopers.
I have an indescribable hatred for serial poopers who serial poop in the entry way to the elevator.
Video proof at least one of our SP's is a woman who is not homeless.
There never seems to be toilet paper. Eeeewwwwwww....

The closest public EV charge station is 20 mile from me and the next is 75 mile away. I'd have to pay to upgrade my power supply here or I could install my own EV system with panels and batteries. Either way I'd be up for the cost of more than 1 hybrid Corollas just to be able to charge it.
Great car I hear.
I don't think you can tow with it here though.
It is certainly the way to go if it can meet your needs.

fedex is now calling me to resolve this issue, maybe just maybe they will no longer change my valid address!

Rwise I feel the same about EVs, and I don't think I could afford one anyway. Your last question is a good one: If they have to start deep ocean drilling for the necessary minerals to make EVs, the oceans will be more screwed than they are now--which is pretty screwed.

[Rwise]

BBB report filed! Fedex read that!!

[Rwise]

I myself think the hybrids are the way to go for now. The EVs have way to many issues, over weight, over powered, batteries that are way to heavy and go up in flames. That will change as things progress over the next 20 years, lighter batteries that last longer and hold more charge, charge faster. Not to mention tires will wear faster as will the roads and what about the electric grids. My question is do they really save anything, or do they just move it (the pollution) to another location?
