Random Rants

@Megatron1505:

For reasons of my wife not wanting other washing and the washing machine turning blue, I throw mine in the bath with whatever detergent we have available. I do this when my jeans are dirty.

Rocket science 

For awhile I avoided the washing machine too for this reason, but I've found that a follow up cycle with dirty shop rags and "dog stuff" that I don't care about if it gets stained blue along with Oxi Clean is a good way to clean out the machine.

For what it's worth, every community that is focused on high end versions of daily items has it's fair share of obsessives.

I'm on a firearms forum where the members will buy handguns because they're "indestructable" and are carried by Navy SEALs, but they go off the rails when their gun gets a scratch on it.

[louisbosco]

what's a gun without scratches? if it gets banged up, get a bit of kiwi and apply it. that's how we used to do it back in the army after every major exercise.

[DougNg]

I personally don't mind scratches. I just roll my eyes every time I read about finish issues on sigs.

Kiwi doesn't sound like a good idea on a conceal carry weapon, I'd think it would transfer onto clothes.

I must admit, I've washed all my IH jeans, the way I've washed any other jeans I've ever owned. I don't soak them, I just throw them in my front loading washer, use detergent and softener as usual. I might not wash them as often though.

Missed my delivery from fedex today, for some reason they didn't get someone else in my building to sign for it. Nearest pick up point is 50 minutes away and I can't change the bleeding address

That means you can obsess about scratches on your handguns and stains on your IH gear!

This week I discovered that a Macbook Pro and cup of coffee don't play well together.  Lesson learned.

I've ( @Madame Buttonfly ) found that out twice before…....

@Giles:

Yes, two very expensive cups of coffee they were

I can stand withness to the fact, that one of these MacBooks literaly threw itself at the coffe that @Madame Buttonfly placed in totaly save distance on the table.

I had to send some money over to @Giles to cover excess shipping for a pair of motorcycle boots that I wanted sending over to Australia. (Thanks for sorting that out.)

PayPal very helpfully had a "send regular amount" option beside the payment box.

Damn you Silicon Valley, enabling our addiction! :o :o :o

[Giles]

Hope you clicked the box…....
