I used to hate eating Brussel sprouts when I was a child. Now I have to say and sadly admit I kind of like them. I needed to say that somewhere and this seemed the perfect place.4 points -

That's fine my dear, we all know you love tractors though (ploughing?), and this is the perfect place as most of us boys hate greens too, and liberals. Good to have you back and someone I know for definite is not a snowflake, make me blush gal.3 points

I love you @Icequeen but Brussels Sprouts ? Brussels Sprouts?? Brussels Sprouts??? OK - for you I'll make the sacrifice2 points -
Scanners are getting cheap. And most auto parts stores will run "fault codes" for you. Many sensors are easily replaced. And YouTube video's abound on fixing specific vehicle issues. We developed a bad rocker tick in our 2014 Chrysler Minivan and my wife said lets just buy a new one. I told her thats crazy !! The van is in excellent shape and there is zero oil usage. So I bought a set of rockers for less than $100 and fixed it. Took a few hours in labor, but its back to normal. Even if I had to replace the motor, I would. Cheaper than junking it and buying another.2 points

I'd have to Google the money conversions, but...to get my daughter's car up and running again for approx. $1,200 more than it was worth, the decision was based on knowing what the car has been through and what would be done with it. Decided to not start over and go with a situation that I understood. Looks like you did pretty good.2 points -
True, but on the plus side a decent scanner is fairly cheap and they can find faults quickly, I find it sad about the replace don't repair for some parts, used to be fun stripping them down and repairing them. It's not just cars, most bikes after the 1980's are the same. It is amusing is that they are so sensitive now that you have the same amount of breakdowns we had before gadgetry, because a sensor fails or doesn't give the right signal to the ECU. I drove 1000 miles a week for 20 years and a particular high end make of a German car was the one I saw stopped by the side of the motorway the most. Out of boredom I took notice and began counting them, it ended up with a breakdown rate of 1.6/1 on my motorway figures compared to all other makes, give you a clue it wasn't Mercedes. We've got a few technicians in the forums, wonder what they think?2 points

The electronics on the new cars make them difficult to fix yourself and it is never cheap. Not like it used to be if you were handy mechanically.2 points

About the same as me, I used to keep 4 bikes and replace one a year, the one I truly regret selling was my T160 Triumph trident, a beautiful machine.2 points

I guess that means those countries, since they will do nothing, means everyone else should just fold. Pretty much says that they can say ‘no’, the rest of us follow what they say, and they rule. Some would say catch-22. Others would say it should be just like how you live your own life and do what you think is right. As opposed to giving in and not complaining about it.1 point

No, it means either they all do it or all ignore it, the current situation is that the largest polluters are doing nothing, while the others are trying at great cost. To put it in Rob terminology 'They are pissing against the wind, and paying heavily for it'. By the way Sammy the USA are one of the worst, but do try in certain sectors, China, Russia and India make no attempt at all, so they will always be cheaper, the only way to change this will be punishment.1 point

No it is because our glorious president wants to forgive up to 20,000 dollars of school loans to anyone who still has to pay them. Must sit really well for people who already worked to pay off their college loans.1 point -

My friend once owned a triumph trident and I was fortunate enough to get to ride it. Loved the bike. Was a lot faster than my 71 sportster. Learned to ride on my first bike , a stock 1970 BSA Thunderbolt that I got for a trade for my 1967 triumph TR4A car.1 point -
A raging epidemic that nobody could stop might have had a little something to do with how things went. But I suppose we could have done nothing and let the chips fall where they may. And if things go bad? Guess who gets blamed. Can’t win either way so might as well go for what you think is right even if others think you are wrong. For a long time we have been pretty fortunate with reasonable energy costs. And we the people got complacent with how much we used. That’s just how humans are. Take everything we want, not what we need. Some kind of sport I guess. Who can get the most shit for the least money, if any, wins the game.1 point

People are resurrecting old wood burners and open fires to burn wood they find on the roadside. The environment is the last thing on a lot of people's minds this year, with energy costs getting ridiculous1 point

Hi, my name is Roy. I am 38 years old and come from Germany. I've been playing COD4 since the release and I hit your server in 2014 and played Freezetag there for the first time and since then it's been my favorite game mode. I wanted to introduce myself at that time but unfortunately there were some bigger (positive) changes privately and so I unfortunately had no more time to play. But now I have more time again and wanted to say hello now. See you on the server.1 point
