It’s a picture of Ed Norton drinking a beer at a soccer game. What’s the big deal?

re: Who has a separate phone they use for work?

Posted by Jor Jor The Dinosaur on 6/25/26 at 6:14 pm to LSBoosie

I used to do the separate work/personal phones but switched 2 years ago.

Prefer having just the one. My main reasoning before was being able to “disconnect”, but that hasn’t really been an issue since I switched.

re: Anyone Want to Go into the Dry Ice Business?

Posted by Jor Jor The Dinosaur on 6/22/26 at 9:16 pm to Funky Tide 8

I’ve only handled dry ice once: when my mom shipped some hometown foods to me my sophomore year of college. My roommates and I immediately put some in a water bottle and tossed it in the bathtub. It sounded like a bomb went off, so I fled my apartment figuring the cops were on the way. I was deaf for a good ten minutes.

Based on my track record, I don’t trust myself around the stuff

Can’t go wrong with either, they are both excellent choices.

Speedy would my personal choice; your intent to pass it along is an additional meaningful reason to go that route.

re: How much of a scam is the dentist?

Posted by Jor Jor The Dinosaur on 6/18/26 at 1:53 pm to 03 West CoChamps

It’s not a scam, it’s because you haven’t been to the dentist in a decade and have a pile of shite under your gums.

I had a similar thing in the past; not quite a decade but there was a decent chunk of time in my 20s when I stopped going to the dentist. When I went back to get on the regular 6 month interval, I had to do the two 2hr sessions deep cleaning.

The deep cleaning fricking sucks, even with the local anesthesia. It’ll make you sure to not skip your regular appointments.

re: The high cost of maintenance on European luxury cars is a feature, not a bug

Posted by Jor Jor The Dinosaur on 6/16/26 at 9:42 am to weagle1999

The annual maintenance cost on the McLaren F1 I let my butler use is around 30k. Need to ship it to Woking or have their “flying spanner” tech come visit every 9-12 months.

The increase in value easily outpaces the cost though.
