Random Thought Thread v2

I feel like there's a lot of crossover between having a bad moustache and wearing shorts in the winter with tights and boots

Just a bad look all around.

I like a moustache. That or a beard can really save a face but I think it’s rare they make a face look worse just from the pure existence of them.

They need to have some purpose, obviously. Guys who grow them without any attention to grooming or shaping don’t do themselves any favours.

Groomed beards are awesome; unkempt beards not so much.

Correct

Driving isn't an enjoyment.

Do not get acoustic sealant on anything you do want covered with it for eternity.

This feels not random but very specific.

People doing whatever the #### they want is awesome.

Fair. I wish you a self driving car as soon as possible.

In the same vein... My wife and I wish for a self driving car for her. If it wasn't for picking up kids from school and activities (car seats), we'd both be very happy if she could Uber everywhere. It'd probably be cheaper too financially.

Good tip. I was going to do this sometime soon to fill a gap between my wall where a pipe comes out. I'll make sure to wear gloves and make sure that the way it's applied doesn't look like ass.

I was thinking to use the extra on some gaps/leaks in my gutter as well. I'll have to be careful not to let it drip on the sidewalk or driveway etc. when applying it.

My priority is to make sure it isn't messy. Looking like ass is kinda part of the game with that stuff. Have some isopropyl alcohol and paper towel on hand so when it inevitably touches something it shouldn't, you can at least wipe it up before it touches something else it definitely shouldn't be on.



I really don't think you want to us it on gutters. It's not designed for that, and will probably remain gooey.

Darn. I have this weird pinhole prick of rust in the gutter that's leaking right on top of the walkway and creating ice in the winter. I was hoping to use leftover caulking or acoustic sealant that I'd be using for other project to sorta plug that hole instead of buying a small slat of flex tape or whatever. Everything else couldn't handle the moisture.

They make gutter silicone that has worked well for me.

[puffnstuff]

It never dries. It remains sticky and gooey for eternity. Would not use on gutters.

Well ####. Of course they have a product for that. I have no clue why I didn't think of seeing if there was a specific product for that application. I'm definitely grabbing a tube of that instead then. Thanks!

To clarify it isn't unenjoyable, it is a thing I do to get somewhere to do something else.

But to be clear I would never go for a drive in the country just because.

Uhh... How is someone supposed to feel about receiving a backhanded and racist complement?

Flattered, obviously.

[puffnstuff]

I remember backhanding a racist once. Very enjoyable.

But if you had to drive in the country, you wouldn’t enjoy it?

Listening to some music, not in a rush, taking in the scenery…. Can be very relaxing. I love it.
