Shacknews LoL

I've always been told it's pretty much impossible to put diesel fuel into a non-diesel car these days, as in, the nozzle won't fit.

My 16 year old daughter proved to me today that is in fact NOT the case after she filled up her car with diesel and tried to drive it. She got a few blocks before it seized up. They are now going to have to drop the fuel tank and scrub it and the fuel lines. Price tag, about $1k.

When asked why she filled it with diesel, she said it had a green light that was blinking at her and it just drew her attention...so she used it.

Can’t wait to get overly obsessed with getting gud for two weeks to then realize I’m awful at fighting games. I’ll probably buy a new fight stick which will ironically make me worse. Then I’ll go down a dark path of modding the game to get characters from my other favorite games in Street Fighter or to try to make surfaces shinier and have it raining all the time.

Also, I don’t ever do nude mods but I do sometimes do download bikinis. Then out of a Shacknews guilt I’ll download some guy costumes that are skimpy too but never use them. But in the 1/1,000,000 chance a shacker plays Street Fighter with me on my system and points out the bikinis I can be like…”oh I download a pack or something it has all sorts of crazy stuff, look it’s Ryu in a Speedo…heh, so funny right crazy mod”. But then when I’m with humans not from this site I’ll play with Chun Li in a Dead or Alive Beach Volleyball swimsuit.

What was the question?

Yesterday I mapped out a running route that would take me in a semi loop. Instead of reaching a point and turning around to head back, it would be more run up into a circle and end back on the road I started on, but heading home. It was a little bit shorter than what I did yesterday morning, so 1.3 miles instead of 1.6 miles, but I figured it would be a good way to ease into running more than once a decade.

Then my wife decided she wanted to join me this morning right before I was about to head out. I decided I wouldn't use my ear buds so we could talk, which meant I didn't need my phone. Now because I've never been through this neighborhood, or on these streets I had a vague idea of where I was going. We reached a road and I said if we go straight it should loop back to this road on our right, but I'm not certain, so I'm going to go right here. She was taking it a bit slower than me so I headed off and when I reached the next road I realized that's where the loop was, so I turned around to tell her and she was nowhere in sight.

Yeah she, knowing I didn't have my phone on me, decided to not follow me, on roads neither of us have been on. By this point I had no idea how far she had gotten, and because I don't know the area well, I wasn't sure if the road I was already on connected to the original road we were on. But I hoped it did so I continued on hoping I'd find her. It didn't, I had to double back and long story short my 1.3 mile run turned into 2.3 miles because I tried to find her.

I eventually gave up looking and headed home so I could call her because she brought her phone with her. She ended up way the fuck out of the way and I ended up driving to go pick her up.

Who doesn't follow their running partner? She's a psychopath.

That might be a Florida-only thing or something. People in Florida are so dumb they need that kind of stuff. ;)

There’s a reason that a dude is the target of every clip; the guys that tried this on their wives didn’t survive to share it with the internet.

Paste a picture of Vin Diesel on the inside of the fuel cap cover so she will always see it.

I know after I graduated from my Ivy League school I got a job I financial consulting through a connection from my uncle the, Earl of Warrington. Then covid hit, and even though I was working remotely in Greece, I started to question my direction in life. Sure, I could maybe make partner or start my own firm someday,or maybe I could quit. Live my dream in a non prestigious career as a telemarketer or in IT at a support desk.

It doesn't really matter. Grandfather left me the vacation home in the Hamptons and my own lithium mine.

Big business finally pushing back against big government, what’s a Republican not to like about that?!?

I had a diesel rental in Scotland, and stopped to fill up while still jet lagged. Grabbed the green handle (always diesel in the US) and got about a third of a tank in before noticing it was petrol.

Topped it up the rest of the way with diesel and continued on. Car ran like absolute shit, but slowly cleared up and I'd stop at every station to top up with diesel to further dilute.

I feel sorry for whoever ended up buying that car when it was retired as a rental, lol.
