The people with the barking dog behind us also have a parrot.  That's worse then the dog.  The parrot is only let outside during the summer months, so it's a seasonal nuisance whereas the dog is a year round one.   Fortunately the parrot and the dog annoy another neighbor more then they bother...

I could use something like this too.  The neighbors behind us have a dog that barks at everyone constantly.  The reviews are mixed. 

We don't have a Costco that is convenient to us.  My wife used to share a membership with her mom, but we found we almost never went so it wasn't really worth it to us. There was a BJ's nearby but it closed.  Not long after that it was converted to a "Costco", but only as a movie set (for a...

no offense taken.  Just wanted to point out that it's a pretty good car (if you can look past the appearance). Maybe Scion should make that their slogan. 

My wife has one of those.  It's actually a pretty awesome little car.  After owning for 12 years the only thing it's needed replaced (aside from wear & tear items) is a gas cap. And no, she doesn't drink pumkin spice lattes or have a tramp stamp and she can't text and drive in it because...

Yeah!  Stop trying to steal my shtick!  

It's a daily occurrence to see at least one person fiddling with their cell phone and not paying attention to the road during my commute.  I think the worst I've seen was the woman who had attached her iPad to her steering wheel (over the airbag) and was watching a movie while driving.  Maybe...

^^ I know some vehicles allow you to have some flexibility with how "aggressively" the auto cruise control follows the car in front.  Allowing the driver to select how closely the car follows would cut down on that I don't know how soon, or whether cars are ever going to be totally autonomous...

I would argue there are plenty of people who aren't up to that task either. 

Most of those are retired running shoes.  They are only good for around 300 miles of running at which point I get a new pair.  I typically go through 3-4 pairs a year, so when I find a pair on sale I tend to buy multiple pairs at a time (hence the multiples in the same color).  This "collection"...

I still contend I only have three pairs of shoes.  A black pair, a brown pair and my running shoes. :P

Those are actually the 18's (all three pairs). I think the blue and gray pairs are also 18's.  To prevent from going broke buying shoes I wait until the new show comes out and then buy several pairs of the "old model" shoe.  I started wearing the Wave Rider when they were on the 12's and loved...

I'm also a fan of Mizuno Wave Riders, I've had a few more than four pairs though. ;)

We have a white noise system in our office.  When we first moved in they had it on for a few weeks, then turned it off for a few days and asked people to vote whether they wanted it on or off.  The decision to have it turned on won by a narrow margin.   Some people find it annoying to have the...

To be fair, they shut down the plants during the earthquake 5 years ago too.  I'd be curious to know if they've moved their backup generators since then.  

DAMMIT!!! I'm eating lunch!  This thread has made me lose my appetite. :(  

It's been unusually warm this fall, we routinely had highs in the upper 80's through October.  It also hasn't rained much during that time.  We haven't had significant rainfall in two months. 

Smoke was even worse here today.  Some rain would be nice. :\

The smoke from those fires has made it's way down to Atlanta.  It was really hazy this morning and it's not the normal "big city" haziness. 

Long time no see dude, nice to see you back.
