Movie theaters must really be hurting. Took a look to see if there's anything the kid would want to watch....the big "new" theater in celebration pointe has only 5 new movies. A bunch of pre-sells for upcoming showings of old shit including Shrek, Harry Potter, Matrix, Dumb and Dumber, and Shawshank.

They have as many or more retreads than airing movies. Is this a result of that writers strike that I stopped hearing anything about a while ago?

Dune 2 is the only remotely interesting movie in theaters right now. Soon to be released....a Fall Guy movie.
 
Ford calls me...They're trying to "help" their existing customers by calling people who bought vehicles just 3 years ago and offering them 120% of value to trade in.

My response, "Do you think 120% of trade in value helps cover up the fact that my exact same vehicle's current price is $30,000 more than I paid for mine?"

He laughed and said, "yeah I get it".

I’d consider selling mine back to them if I wasn’t remodeling my house. I hate my f150.

I love mine. Zero issues so far, comfortable. Sure, I'd prefer my Bro's Silverado, but it's also like 40k more than mine was. Chevy is absurdly overpriced. I don't like Nissan or Toyota trucks and I think Dodge's interior is really uncomfortable. Plus I swear Dodge's have more problems than anyone, especially A/C issues.

Waiting for something to go wrong with mine, different noises everyday that don’t sound like anything specific. Feels like I’m driving a uhaul also. Had a tundra for 20 years and I miss it. It had to go, but it was a damn good vehicle. Test drive of the Ford was comparing it to the Thndra so it felt smooth and great in a short window, but now that I’ve had it awhile, I hate it.

They're all hit or miss, which is why I think brand loyalty is stupid. There are people with stories like yours about Ford, then there's my mom whose F150 has 180k miles on it. I've driven it and it's still nice and they've never had anything of note to put it in the shop. My brothers Silverado has had some major issues under 50,000 miles. My Tahoe had the transmission crack before 50,000 miles at 6 years old.

It's all random
 
Last night I was out front smoking a cigar. A pizza delivery via door dash or one of those food delivery services comes up to me. I didn't order pizza. I tell him as much. He makes confused look. I ask him where he's trying to get to. He couldn't tell me. You know why? Because he didn't speak fucking english.

Good God.

I was at walmart, trying to return a battery for the core charge credit. Nobody in the auto section, so I find the nearest associate on the main floor. She no speak english, so she broke out her phone and used google translate. WTF?
 
Interesting. Took them long enough - I mean, I'm not one of those guys who thinks marijuana cures everything, but its clearly got therapeutic uses.
