Why


This kinda explains it. Plucked from a forum:


Used Oil Analysis of all direct injection engines shows varying levels of fuel contamination. This primarily happens because fuel is sprayed directly into the combustion chamber and wil not completely vaporize when the engine is still cold. It comes in contact with the oil around the rings and is dissolved.

Short trips and cold weather will increase fuel dilution. Driving while the engine is up to temperature will help evaporate/remove fuel from the oil, but some will always remain as like-dissolves-like and the oil will hold onto some fuel.

The concern with fuel dilution is that it lowers the viscosity of the oil. A bit of dilution is no problem, a lot could be. If you're doing frequent short trips (especially in cold weather) consider changing the oil more frequently as this is consider "severe service" conditions

Not a chance.
Newscum talks a lot of bullshite and uses words that don't make any sense to anyone but him. Throw in the hand gestures and shoulder shimmy and he's cooked.
Vance will eat him alive.

As for stupid white females voting for him, that's an entirely different matter.

I know it's kind of fruity but when I see dying honeybees, when it's clear they're pretty much done for, I'll drop some water on the ground near them. Sometimes they drink, sometimes not. I'll also place them in cooler spots in the yard.

I feel like since they did me such a solid, I don't mind helping them out. Bees are pretty important to human kind.


I can leave my house and walk down the sidewalk past 6 neighbor's houses and count 4-5 dead/dying bees. I usually carefully pick them up and put them in the grass. I have to move them because the dogs have a tendency to step on them and get stung.
Bummer our pesticides or whatever are killing them at an alarming rate.

A girl's gotta eat...a lot, apparently.
I remember when I visited Chicago with my then girlfriend back in 1987. I was in tech school in the Air Force.
Anyway, they had a really cool McDonald's where they had life-size statues of the Beatles in a big glass case. Very artsy.

Put him in there for a few days.

What are bidet towels?


It's a small cotton towel to dry your bunghole after using the bidet, because you just douched yourself and you're soaking wet down there.

Remember, they usually have a bidet.
But then do you wash the shite off the bidet towels daily?

That's a totally different thread.

I forgot about that.
I believe they want to outlaw all NG appliances, including water heaters.

Better hope Nutsack Newscum and his minions don't get into the White House.

I strongly dislike the time between seasons.

I'm finding that simple drop lights that I use when working on my cars are way to bright.
The Daylight LEDs they use are so blinding you can't see what you're doing.
Even the low setting casts light that is way too bright.
