New appliances always have something wrong with them.




The parts in new appliances are not the same quality. Appliance stores make their money on parts.

My mom's husband (they married to late for me to call him step dad) use to own an appliance store. He sold tvs, all the other appliances one needs, lawn mowers. It was pretty much a local lowes).. Anyway, he told me he didn't make that much selling a lawnmower, refrigerator, etc, etc.. He made his money on parts. There isn't a large profit margin on the more expensive products..

This works and is convenient when cooking for a lot of people.

A 2 stroke engine is the easiest thing on earth to maintain and use. Just don't leave old gas in the engine or frick up the mix ratio.




I just buy the synthetic 50:1 and it stays good.

True, manufacturers kickbacks for volume stores.

False, probably made his money on jacked up labor charges. Dont get me wrong, most people are stupid. Fixing appliances isnt rocket science.

I can start and stop them just fine but whoever designed the mechanism that accepts the string is a goddamn sadist. Probably the same a-hole that designed car seats for babies. Those fricking things are a pain in the dick too. My kids learned every curse word in the book before we left the hospital parking lot.

The heads that use the precut lengths are awesome unless you have hours of weedeating to do. Takes about 20 seconds to change the string.

I'm not some grease monkey **** that enjoys maintaining weedeaters

It takes about 3 minutes and $5 to both clean a carb and replace a spark plug on a 2 stroke weedeater, and it's actually really satisfying to complete one/both of those tasks.

99% of the time one of those two things is the problem.

True story. Was at MIL's for a Sunday dinner. She had a old microwave. When to put a plate in it to warm up. Was standing in front of it and sure as shite, that sucker set off my CRT-D. I hit the floor like flipping on a light switch. Neediest to say, that was in the trash Monday morning.

1. Raycon headphones I like them better than air pods. Ran 3 miles last weekend and they never so much as came a little loose.
2. I got the special lenses for screen glare on my first new pair of glasses since 2013. It makes a world of difference.

i bought some LED light strips off amazon with a motion sensor for when I get up to piss and the sensor is a POS
