Why does everyone say you need a fancy CAM setup for simple brackets, my free version cut 40 of them just fine

I was wrapping my pork butt in foil at 165 like a robot for 3 years, and a guy at a backyard cookoff in Waco finally asked me why

I thought the $12 knockoff headlamp from a bin at the hardware store was junk, but it outlasted my $60 name brand one

TIL the Orange Julius at my local mall used to sell hot dogs and I never knew it for 20 years

Nah, pretty sure all Orange Julius had food back then.

Told my dive buddy saturation pays the same as surface work and he showed me a 2019 IMCA sheet that shut me up

Used to think that too, til I saw the sheet.

I thought biscuit joints were a gimmick until Sam showed me his 40 year old shop stools

Heard a 12 year old at GameStop in Reno call the N64 controller a relic, and it got me thinking

Some kid at a store told me my whole childhood was garbage and his dad just nodded along like they were at a funeral for my thumbs. That three prong thing was weird but so is paying 70 bucks for drift. The rumble pak hitting your palm for the first time felt like the future just punched you in the hand. These kids will never know the pain of blowing into a cartridge either, and honestly that is on us for not passing it down.

Can we talk about the tow truck driver in Phoenix who saved my car from a bad transport?

Did Ray mention if those transport guys were already gone before he showed you?
