Have you discovered the power of the hot stapler? With all these brittle plastic bits, getting some serious use!

My car did a James Bond type smoke screen for 10 seconds while idling in traffic yesterday. Nothing before that, nothing since. Thoughts?

2008 with a bunch of bolt ons, Freek tune, oil restrictor bolt for turbo, 123k miles, stock turbo. Car is otherwise healthy, AP numbers are good. Pretty stumped.

Was this like a burp from a turbo whose seals are about to go? Thanks!

Was out of town, my Libre failed, and I had to revert to the glucometer. You know what? It's was delightful!

No constant reminders about how I'm failing up or down. Not constantly engaged, always looming over you. Not having to worry about ripping the sensor off. Not worried about my phone's battery.

It was like camping - quiet and calm - and it was a beautiful 2 days. Back to bionic now...

2 weeks ago, I ran out of smokes. Opted not to buy more. Now addicted to Zyn and 'smoking' straws. I'm ok with that.

Been surprisingly easy after 28 years of this crap. Still have moments and routines where the lizard brain says "time for a smoke!" Grab my trusty straw and go to the usual smoking spot outside so the 'routine' is still there.

I quit during my school's final which is kinda insane, but there will always be an excuse right??

Still nervous about long term success but feeling pretty proud of myself. 🕺🏼

Ran out of smokes at noon yesterday. Opted not to buy more. Been 26 hours now. Woo.

Tried quitting over 30 times, 3 with moderate 'success'. Here's to hoping I learned from my past mistakes.

Considering the world, RATM seems like an appropriate choice. Which one are you going for?

Self titled is obv a classic, but man there are some bangers on the other 2 albums!
