Snagged a used pro series 1600 off of marketplace. Question:

It seemed like it took a long time to fire up. It definitely seems like it is taking longer to heat up but im sure its because its bigger than my old unit on the left and much thicker metal to heat up. Strong flame in the burn bowl, but perhaps the igniter is getting weak? Maybe ill replace it just for giggles and shits. It was an absolute steal for $240 though. It has seen 1000s of less cooks than my old one. This thing is a heavy beast.

Breaking women's hearts while dating

I have been separated 11 months now after a 17 year marriage. Have been dipping my toes into dating some merely as an experiment and because I was craving physical touch.

Met a woman on FB that instantly began falling for me dispite telling her that I want to take things slow.

She is super kind and told me all the things my ex never said. Another thing is that she is cute but really not my type and im not feeling the vibe or connection.

I sorta broke things off with her this morning and I feel guilty because I know how rejection feels. Perhaps im too empathetic in my old age.

Just picked up from thrift store and am seeking information

I think chat gpt is giving me the wrong info, so I hope some of you can help me out. Took a gamble on this after carefully test riding it with a front flat tube. Does anyone know the model? Chat gpt was saying f65 but from what im seeing the f65 isn't fron hub driven.

I also need to repair the front tire so I need the model to look up the instructions. I could probably just start tearing stuff apart and wing it but id rather be safe than sorry.

Divorce can be the best thing to ever happen to you or the worst. Which category do you fall under?

Im not letting this world beat me down. When life piles more shit on to of my shoulders, I just laugh and say "is that all you got?"

​

Im making divorce the best thing that ever happened to me. Im 41 and in the best shape that ive been in, 15 + years. Im grinding at my job and making money. I challenge myself daily.

​

I don't care about her any more. I can 100% say that my feelings for her are dead, but i haven't fully recovered from the trauma she inflicted apon the family. I can't trust another woman yet, and i don't really care to. My goals are #1.

​

Once I get my body and money exactly where I want it, perhaps ill attempt to open my life up for a woman.

​

Fitness, money, toys, and then woman is my order of priority.

​

Im taking care of ME first for the rest of my life. If you don't like it, ill show you the door.

Im looking for a heavy 10mm Cuban chain. Any recommendations?

I have been eyeballing one at Miami links for almost $1300 but it seems a little steep for like 125 grams. Anyone have a good shop to recommend?

Looking for a cool chick to hang out with

41 Male here. Divorced in December and I am looking to make some friends to see where it goes from there. Low pressure situation. Just see how things progress naturally.

I like hiking, love music, playing guitar, playing pool, cooking, and occasional weekend adventures.

I am very mellow and have a calm demeanor. I do floor coverings for a living. I am self employed so I have a little more freedom than the average 9-5.

Feel free to hit me up. Pics are in my profile and you can DM if you need more.

Man, I just feel like my luck has been on a a steady decline for the past 2 years

Have lost family, ex wife lost her f#cking mind, witnessed some crazy sh!t, and every time i feel like things start to improve, something else happens.

My psycho ex wife wanted me out of her life, but continues to make my life hell every chance she gets. Obviously I live rent free in her head, but im out here just trying to do my own thing.

Im about to throw a dart at a map and just dissappear.

Sorry, I needed to get it out somewhere

I was lightly bumped by an excavator. I think it's mostly paint transfer. There is a tiny crease that I can live with but id like to remove the paint, as the body shop quoted nearly 4 grand for the repair.
