That looks really nice! Congrats!

Mazel Tov! Whereabouts in WI?

Rad house

That's a good-looking house, congrats! I love the porch and all the angles. We're in St. Paul, let me know if you need to borrow any tools.

That's a beaut, there.

There is not way not to feel like you have made a terrible mistake, power thru it

@ba in Oshkosh. My sister lives here, and I've been visiting Green Bay for almost 20 years.

@wjcstp written contract! Everyone saw <-pun intended!

The house is in pretty bad shape, it's had renters for the past 5 years who trashed the place. It's going to be a project, but I knew that when I made the offer. My first steps are going to be stabilizing the outside to prevent it from deteriorating further, and take it slow on the interior renovation front.

It’s gorgeous!

That's great! Congratulations!

@chauffi My wife is freaking out over the hardwood floors (I snooped and found the listing). We would love to do a renovation like this but we're about 20 years past our window.

Just needs some fence, it is beautiful!

That is an absolutely gorgeous house!

You have chosen wisely <3

That looks really great! Congrats!

@rogrtheshrubber the floors need some desperate help, and the listing doesn't show the central main staircase, which was a huge draw. Also those photos, uh, show the house in a much better light than it actually is.

Wow great looking place and what a fun/terrifying project to take on!

Pretty!

Ooooh, a tower.

Very lovely, enjoy it and your orange cheese.

Me too

i definitely have a huge soft spot in my heart for that exact aesthetic. i keep having to stop myself from bidding on g3 imacs just for the nostalgia aesthetic.

Oh yeah I had a... what were those Pal m PIlot clones called, Mindpsring, is that right? That was this sort of orange plastic like this, loved it.

Oh my!

almost!

would

Those floors!

LOL 'Fuck, no, I can't lift that...'

Who said anything about America?

They're larger than a slider, to be sure, but yes, they're on the small side by US burger standards. I don't know how burger prices are in the UK, but at the Shake Shack I've been to here the price struck me as being fairly reasonable for the quality. Not a place I'll eat at often anyway, but mostly because we're blessed (or probably cursed, actually) for burger options here.

compared to fastfood it is expensive for 2 its usually around 30$ but the quality is so good, and no in n out over here so its good

@ardgedee It cost me £14 ($20) for just me with what you see on the tray, its around $24 for Five Guys for similar so dunno maybe I just choose expensive burger joints.

Surplus, indeed!

How sweet it is!

And away we go!

I remember swapping the lenses from flat to scope for our projectors at cinemark like it was yesterday... had I been born 30 years sooner I think I would have loved to be a union projectionist my whole life.

So, one day I was at this little-bitty artsy eating place in the downtown-area of Kansas City having dinner (the old YJs for anyone who cares like @Kevin). A 5 piece blues/jazz group came in and sat down with their instruments and commenced to set up to have a bit of a practice.

The eatery was barely 30x30 and part of that was the kitchen. Hardly room for 10 people to sit at once inside. One of the musicians handed out a single-sheet of music to the rest that he had written since they last met and wanted to run through it a couple of times for a paid gig they had coming up. As he was handing it out, he gave about 7 seconds of instruction that was pure music nerd stuff like "something the first refrain something the bridge at the third 4/7ths time. -one-and-two-and-three-"

..suddenly music..

It was brilliant. I don't have a grasp music like that and really admire people who do. I left a $20 for them when we left because musicians need pie and they served great pie there.

yo dawg I heard you like b9 chords

@urlnotfound that works because they all know the conventions of the style

@urlnotfound oh man I haven't eaten there in forever. Super freaking tiny. Smaller than Town Topic even.

All the bacteria that could grow in THAT media.

I remember that my hands used to taste good when I was 8.

@ardgedee If you have to ask why, you CAN'T AFFORD IT.

"Recreational tank"

Not only not road legal but I bet there is a lot of off road areas where you can't take it either, at least in the states.
