I loved it too, but the smartest thing I did was sell it.
Man those things are expensive to maintain. Just a black hole of money.

I honestly don't know, but many people have done laser hair removal in much more sensitive places...or at least very near those places...

I had a friend who drove his mom’s Topaz like it was a race car, even wearing driving gloves. He has a fleet of super cars now, including an F40, so I guess he got the last laugh.

This seems like a clear example of a product that is taking advantage of the inflationary situation.
$5 for bread dust and a few seasonings, without the bag... GTFO

Well my first car was a van and I used to do neutral drops in it… that really ground my gears.
So… don’t feel too shameful.

Unimog for 8 months.
That vehicle and I became great friends, so much so that 2 months in I no longer needed to double clutch.

A friend of mine did it a long time ago. He only went for one session. Once he found out it would take several sessions and need to be repeated every few years, he soured on the idea and went back to regular shaving.

No ads on the paid one. Not sure if that is still an option anymore. It was several years ago when I got the paid version of the app.

And litter, we use cheap Stupid Store brand litter.
It has been impossible to find in Calgary.
I was in Dead Rear yesterday and stopped in. They had only 4 boxes in the store. I bought them all

Litter hoarder. You're worse than those Pandemic Panic People hoarding toilet paper and hand sanitizer.

We have started using wood furnace pellets instead of litter. It doesn't get tracked around, it smells of sawdust/wood. A 40lb bag is $5-7
