We have Fox News, conspiracists, and loads of Trump supporters all running around whining about a global elite and a UN global order, when, in fact, they are the creators and enablers of their greatest fear: a global plutocracy world order of elites conspired against them. Trump, Putin, MBS, China, and others are loosely conspiring to lie, steal, cheat, torture, and murder - completely ignore, defy, and extinguish law - to enrich themselves. And 40% of America enables this global evil elite in the name of getting rid of the global elite.

Oh shut up!
This will be filed under censured by Anna but I have to tell you anyway! My first response was "Oh shut up, just because you couldn't keep you turkey paster firing off like a machine gun, doesn't mean the rest of us can't aim for shit" I was happy with the response until I realized just how awful it was. It was so bad I hit my toe to a damn wall while laughing at my lack of verbal skills. It turns a bit black now so I had to tell you that because I probably fucking broke my toe while avoiding sending that. Universe already punished me, you can't do shit to me! Quote:
Nah. I was 23 when I got told I might never get kids all naturally. The kind doc said that we should start working on it straight away even to get to the infertility treatment lines. After that I had just one goal, which was to become a mom. I'm so allergic to hormone changes (all changes make me puke my guts out, anywhere from 4 days to 10 months) adopting was the only path I saw forward for us, until three months later my bestie dragged me to an er for a stomach bug that had lasted 3 months. I got over it 7 months later, and did it again 5 months later for an other ten. I've done a lot while at home with the kids, but those are my life. If I wasn't so bad at pregnancies I would've ended up with ten probably. Mind you, my ass has gotten so big I should have an other kid or buy larger jeans.

The shit stick. True or face doesn't matter. The impressions matter. We've been driven to a culture where freedom of speech means outlets will let anything fly. Ann coulter gets airtime still, and the other networks have to counter it with something from the other side of the spectrum. Fox news is a product well forged for this time. I think they're just the top layer and like lava, this will keep boiling up if we can't find again a way to trust the other side, the opponents again. Not to agree, but to trust them to be on the same side whether it's on a national or international level. Now. The good news is that Brexit is turning out to be so utterly bad that it should calm down the rest of the globe. Yeah, that's the end of the good news. We are going to be fucked for at least 5 more years and one major recession. Maybe then all that old shit like decorum and manners will become fashionable again.

When I had my M4, my first exhaust wasn’t any of my original choices, it was a Catback Remus. I pretty much regretted it within a few weeks due to many little issues that added up for me. Cold start, valves rattle like crazy, the car was also annoyingly loud, and the worse was Remus Catback droned. The droning wasn’t extreme but it was definitely noticeable for me and I absolutely hated hearing it. I sold the exhaust within 3 months and went do the one I was going to go with from the get to, Akrapovic. Now obviously a tune is different than an exhaust, since exhaust are reversable. You cannot do that with a tune if the tune blows up your engine. But as GrussGott said, these warranties by Dinan aren’t 100% warranty per say. They are only there to tell you, if BMW denies your warranty then they will pick up the bill to fix it. However, even that isn’t completely true because what if Dinan declines to do so? They can always argue that their tune wasn’t the root cause if the issue in which case, you are screwed. Never take these warranty things as a sure thing that it is going to happen. Especially when it comes to tuning there is no such thing as a sure thing, that doesn’t exist for tunes. That being said, my friend did tune his car and his tune is from Alex at Alpine. Justin recommended it as my friend’s 2017 isn’t a ZCP, he choose to get his M3 w/o ZCP and completely regretted it so, he tuned his M3 to get the ZCP in. From what I understand, he got the most conservative one he can get from Alex and Alex’s tunes aren’t overly aggressive and it as close to OEM as possible. He hasn’t had any problems with his and it’s been close to a year since he gotten his. My friend knew the risk and he was concerned, still is but he hasn’t had problems and my friend is our SA so he, as far as I know, hasn’t gotten in trouble yet. The chances of anything happening with tunes is, I would say, minor but the chances are still there and that is the “issue”. I would even point to your ownership of the GT350 as an example. I’m sure there are other owners who didn’t run into the amount of problems you had with your Mustang during that year and a half of ownership. The percentage might be different but it is still kind of the same thing. Just because it hasn’t happened to others, doesn’t mean it won’t happen to you. If you are going to keep your car for a duration, then I wouldn’t tune. As my saying goes, “If you aren’t 100% sure, then do not do it.” I would like my M3 to be as close to the Clubsport as possible, the only thing I would miss at this point is the hood and the engine tune. I know the CS hood saves close to 100 pounds or so and with my Brembos ready to be put on and my FI-R already there, I would probably shave a lot of weight off my car, which is great but, I really don’t want to tune and I have no room to place my OEM hood (that and the $$). There will always be a risk with tunes. If you are able to look beyond it, then I would say why not but these cars are already overly powerful for the street. Making a bit more HP or Torque seems pointless to me, not to mention the gas, it will certainly eat more.

Not my best moment, but one toe in pain says yesterday wasn't my night.

I'm not sure what that means, but it sounds scary/ominous. I'm guessing by that downward line it is muy no bueno. I'm expecting the same downward line in Trumps popularity when that one goes down further.

The death cross is a chart pattern indicating the potential for a major selloff. The death cross appears on a chart when a stock’s short-term moving average crosses below its long-term moving average. Typically, the most common moving averages used in this pattern are the 50-day and 200-day moving averages. |

Look, I don't want to scare anyone ...
Anyway, we're still at 2660 on the S&P 500 which is pretty good - however, I ain't no investment guru, but I'd say if it drops below 2600, then run. but in a calm and controlled way. |

Not joking, but guys now would be an epic time to read through your mortgage contracts. I have in stocks 2 times the amount our family.has in debt and I expect the ratio to be 1:1 if I don't act. I know I've been predicting this since June, it just seems to be so so stuck. Stuck like all brokers stopped reading the news. Stuck.

It’s something weird on the internet. I for sure thought you (of all people) would know.
I mean, it could be tryouts for another “Batman vs” movie, but Spidy is Marvel not DC and I don’t think Disney has the rights to Santa... yet.

2016 3.5xdrive. Carbon black over black Dakota; M Sport, Premium, Cold weather, LED, Driver assist (HUD), Luxury seating, M Adaptive and rear air suspension, 20" rims, HK audio, park assist. Pretty much loaded... the only thing missing that I kinda wanted was blind spot monitor, but finding a loaded X5 that wasn't overpriced was hard enough.
Nice thing was that it came pre modded... M Performance Exhaust, color matched reflectors, tinted windows and Continental tires (instead of RFT). Funny thing... when I first saw the car, I noticed it had an exhaust system on it so that kinda turned me off a little since I wasn't sure what kind of exhaust it was and else was done to the car (Tuned?). I was looking on the X5 side of bimmerpost and found an older post about this exact car... the first owner is active on bpost and he had recently turned it in at the end of the lease. So I messaged him and he gave me a call and we discussed everything I needed to know about this car. Went and bought it the same day. |
