Just got the first renewal for my Ionic 5 EV. $418 “registration fee” and $352 “license fee.” 😳😳 No weight fee at least. They may be charging more for EVs because we don’t pay any gas tax. And they need this money to maintain the high quality service we get from the DMV. But I also get a sticker tha...

All of these registrations total about 2/3rds of what Mikey was paying for his truck.

It was almost 20 years old by the time I got rid of it. The registration was like triple of a wussified F150 because the GVW was over 10,000 lb or something.

What are we looking at here?

Pac-Man invading Africa?

My dad went to Lincoln HS. He was one year behind Vince Guaraldi.

Ken Venturi, Johnny Miller, Mike Holmgren. Maybe a little more genteel than Galileo?

Did that cost him another $4.5 million?

One EV One ICE SUV Got rid of my F250 Crew Cab a few years ago because I was paying something like $900 per year to keep the registration up to date, and I was only using it three or four times a year for building and landscape supplies after my son Eagled out of the Scouts. It's cheaper to rent one...

Seriously Sam? I never would have suspected!!

Thanks for posting that. It really made my day.

I'm still using a land line.

The yellow line is the output from our PV system today. There were no clouds for most of the day, but there was a strange dip between about 10:00 am and noon.

Mikey

I hope the tide wins. Don't want to see UConn in the finals again Like to see North Carolina State win as well. My favorite player of all time played there.. David Thompson. You’re old enough to remember David Thompson?! Thought you were a youngster. Monte Towe and Thompson and Burleson. Fun team t...

I see a lot of people walking around talking on their smartphones like this. Is there a reason for that? Is it easier to stuff it in your mouth that way? Enquiring minds want to know.

Mikey

I’m sure seeing a total eclipse would be cool, but this was a tad underwhelming, unless you think about what’s actually happening. I mean, it’s pretty cool that a dragon is eating the sun. That’s what I told the kids next door. Their mom home schools them and I knew she wouldn’t tell them the truth...

Some people were expecting the Rapture to happen today, but I haven’t heard anything yet about DJT ascending into heaven.

I’m a cold brew guy, have been for years (before it became a thing). I buy whole beans from a few different roasters in the city and from upstate NY, use my Breville grinder at beginning of each batch. In fact, I would argue anyone who isn’t using freshly ground beans has no idea what they’re doing...

I go into the break room at work and, when nobody’s looking, fish used K-pods from the trash, and take them home and re-use them. You can usually get a decent second cup from these. Maybe not quite as good as the first but it’s free and it helps reduce the plastic waste stream. Dude. Do you pull ou...

K-pods are expensive and wasteful, a needless part of the ridiculous stream of plastic waste that’s poisoning our planet. Hope you and all the rest of us are going barefoot. Those damn athletic shoes we love are destroying the planet with every step we take. https://www.trailrunnermag.com/people/cu...

K-pods are expensive and wasteful, a needless part of the ridiculous stream of plastic waste that’s poisoning our planet. Stop being lazy and try making it yourself. You might even find that you like it better.

I was thinking of going to see Frampton when he comes to San Diego on April 14. I had a pre-sale code when tickets came out because I donate to the San Diego Symphony, which owns the venue. The tickets that I wanted, which aren't even that close to the stage, were going for $300. Fuck that and fuck ...

It's fake. Done on a Hollywood soundstage.

We, Mrs Mike and I, had lunch at In N Out this afternoon. None of them are franchises, BTW. All owned by the family business. Double Double animal style (grilled onions and secret sauce) Cheeseburger, protein style (lettuce wrap, no bun) Fries, well done (cooked a little longer so they're crispier) ...

Mikey

Eclipse? Yeah nobody knew that was coming. Well Marjorie says its because we need to repent. “God is sending America strong signs to tell us to repent. Earthquakes and eclipses MTG, Boobert, Gayts, the Orange One and many more things to come,” Yep I think some repentment is definitely in order.

My stepdaughter lives in Ringwood, NJ (about 25 miles NW of NYC) and has an apartment in Manhattan where her son lives while at NYU. She says that they felt it in both places and it was kind of cute compared to CA.

The six finger thing is intentional. It is Biblical. It is meant to show that they are part of the Nephilim. Genesis 6:4 2 Samuel 21:20 Just like Barry (the serpent in the garden) is shown with 6 fingers here... https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-apps/imrs.php?src=https://arc-anglerfish-washpost-pro...

I love my small town. The DMV office is only open 3 days a week, there is never a line, everyone is super nice and I can get out in 30 minutes regardless of why I'm there. My wife let her license lapse by 90 days which is supposed to require a new application, written test, etc. The DMV lady was li...

Mikey

Around here you avoid going into the DMV office if at all possible. Sometimes you can make an appointment but you have to do it months in advance. If you walk in, you first have to talk to a greeter who asks what you’re there for. Then they give you a number and you have to wait in a large room with...

Mikey

Funny, I’m 68 years old and never picked up a license plate sticker at the DMV. Around here we use something called US Mail.

WTF are you babbling about here? Did you get lost in the wrong thread or something? Maybe had the voice recognition activated on your flip phone without realizing it, and fat thumbed “submit” by mistake?

The average hourly rate at In N Out was already $19.66 according to Indeed. And if you’re worried about how much it costs to eat at McDonalds then you’re eating way too much at McDonalds. This is just another right wing MAGA culture war hot button to excite their gullible base. Congrats for continua...

I threw up a little (ok, a lot) in my mouth when I saw this, then I saw when it was posted.

It was only the 2nd worst April fools joke of the day....main line backup in the TWIS household topped this as the shittiest.

Sorry if I ruined your day.

I think she has a weight advantage.

Not only does he have the awesomely best fingers (much better than his 2024 opponent Barack Hussein Obama, WHO WASN’T EVEN BORN IN THE US!!!), he also apparently has the most.

True, but Jess is still above ground (last I heard at least), so there’s that.
