Being the best you can be implies resisting temptation for junk foods. He liked his tattoo but the second he was tempted, the tattoo’s advice went out the window. He either covered it up to hide other people from seeing it while he eats a donut, or he’s hiding the tattoo itself from seeing and judging him.

I had to read it like 5 times because I thought there was a dirty undertone.

"How impressed everybody is" is the basis of money, law, self-worth and our models of reality.

Can you expand on that some? On the surface, it doesn’t match my experience at all.

Ford F-x50 pickup? Check.

Some ridiculous manly Edition, like Raptor Edition or Avalanche Edition? Check.

Small bed that can’t even hold a sheet of plywood? Check.

Extended cab that can’t even hold seat at least 8 people? Check.

It is clean, undamaged, and clearly not used by the owner for hauling anything? Check.

That’s not a pickup truck. It’s an antivaxer minivan.

First post the post, I guess. I’m told all the other options are too difficult for people to understand, apparently.

You got sentenced because a tree branch fell and damaged a fence? Sentenced to what? By whom?

I love that the key point of outrage is that they replied with AN EMAIL.

Maybe he just ran out of the paper towels Trump threw at him the last time he was in PR. Now he had a spill to clean up and he’s finally mad.

You just gave me opinions I didn’t know I held.

I looked into this a while back and gave up.

I didn’t find any (good) models I wouldn’t have to pay for, but some of the paid STL sites had sets available for really reasonable prices, so that wasn’t really a blocker.

But FDM is basically incapable of printing any interesting models. Even if you’re printing good layers, most interesting models aren’t geometrically compatible with how an FDM model prints. You can print with supports, but removing supports from such thin, fragile bits of a model is nigh impossible without doing damage.

I went as far as shopping around for a resin printer, but I didn’t like all the ventilation cautions I read. Adding a printer is one thing, but having a well ventilated area that overlaps with where I’d want a printer was an unsolveable problem in my home.

If you just want to give it a try, grab a model off Thingiverse and see how your printer does. If you can get a piece you’d be happy to proceed with painting, that might be worth a few more iterations to see if it’s workable for your setup.

Now that reminds me of a story my dad told me once. In like the 70s he went on a road trip with a few friends and they ended up driving to Mexico and had to stop for the night because it was pitch black and they didn’t know where they were.

So they pulled over on a dead quiet road and set up the car to sleep in it. They didn’t have much food but saw mango’s growing in trees right along the road. They thought it was weird there was so much fruit growing at the side of the road when it wasn’t a farm or orchard or anything. It was delicious and free.

The next morning they had proper light and thought they’d have a couple more mangos before heading out. As soon as they cut into it they saw it was TEEMING with wriggling little bugs all inside the fruit. In the dark they didn’t see nor feel the bugs.

They did not eat more mangos that morning.

It sounds like you’ve got at least five hilarious stories to share if your day has left you feeling this way.
