Costco's return policy might be A+, but their use of 3rd parties can warrant a solid F(uckoff), partly because they contract with some of the lowest appliance scum on the planet. We bought a dishwasher from Costco and the "installer" failed to perform. Flat out refused to install it, citing...

Nibblenibble, nibblenibble...

MOTHERF!CKERS!!!  I love living here, but more and more leaving the rat race and moving back "home" sounds pretty enticing. 

I really like the new C8 vette, and I'm available for adoption.  Just sayin'.

I nibbled in to T and will add more SPH at 15 as well.  When did BRK get so expensive?  PE over 50?  I think we have 1 more strong leg down...20% from here?  Would be in line with GOOGL @ 80.

USPS did that to me once, and I was freaking out.  $1200 worth of stuff in a ~8"x8"x8" box, and insurance was not an option when I checked out.  Showed up the next day, after I had already filed an online report with the postmaster.  UPS will do it too, very rarely.  I assume it's to spiff up...

So salaries will have to go up to keep them here, their jobs will leave too, or prices will drop, or some combination of the 3 will happen.  Actually, that is already happening.

Meh.  I'm in that line but it's part of the routine.  Drop the wife off so she can start shopping, and I go fill up.  I've timed it when I was in the longest line I've ever been in, and it was a grand total of 14 minutes in and out.  Sure, maybe still not worth $3 if time was the only factor...

Is this just a diversion tactic to get everyone to forget about all the trichloroethylene in the ground?

Nothing that's actually sporty.  :(

What is your definition of a "sporty" car? 

I just paid about 1/3 less for some ribeye steaks this week than I have been this year from the same Costco.  Deflation is starting to take hold!

Exactly the kind of real world data I'm looking for.  Thank you.  How does the total annual generation compare to Tesla's estimate?  Side note, I find it maddening that Tesla isn't able to break down the estimate by month-average.  Surely they could easily do so.

Well that's a plus...I had been waiting for a better incentive.  Didn't the current 26% tax credit already cover batteries? I was all in, BUT I got the generation estimate back for a west-facing array (southern roof too small) and it was pretty disappointing.  Even with a 7.2kw system, we would...

I'll know we're close to a bottom when the daily spam texts from strangers offering to buy my house stop.

I've never opened a Tesla door, but I've seen the handles on parked cars and wondered how they worked.  My first thought was exactly right, apparently, but I thought, "nah, that would be too cumbersome.  Must be a better way than that".  So with zero actual experience, I agree with you Socal. ...

Forget the HOA.  Pretty sure the city wouldn't write a permit for 1. 

Every single "econ 101" argument has an implied "all else being equal" caveat. Plus don't ignore actual utility in the comparison.  For most people, renting is not a perfect substitute for owning; many place greater value in owning, so have a higher willingness to pay.  Of course, a lot of...

It takes a politician to send money to people based solely on their income and dependents and nothing else, and call it a gas tax refund.  Why not just be honest and call it voter demographics based pandering?  We will qualify for the lowest tier and, no joke, the amount we'll get will be almost...

A few weeks ago while we were out shopping, my 6 year old daughter stated a few times how she wished all the stuff in the store only cost a penny.  "Wouldn't that be great, Dada"? she asked.  At this prompting, I explained to her that it would be great, except if everything was a penny then...
