WASTED

One of those creepy cringy dolls boomers put against their classic muscle car at a car show for some fucking reason.

Me too, lamp.

Close call on the Cuyahoga this morning, the Center St swing bridge waited til the last second to open for American Courage.

Sometimes it's not so bad?

An image of Smudge the cat (from the dinner table/salad cat meme) on the left, juxtaposed with an image of a white fourth gen Mazda Miata wearing the same expression.

Not even God can save you from bad kerning, apparently.

The headstone of Pope Francis, reading "FRANCISCUS". The kerning is bad, and it looks more like "FR A NCISCUS".

Yeah, it’s my daily! I started riding motorcycles before getting into Miatas so I knew already that extended freeway sessions with wind in your ears is dangerous so I don’t do it unless I put in earplugs.

Also, color scheme got me thinking:

Looks like a good candidate for The Meme.

A popular Miata meme. Top right, a caricature of Jesus saying "meet your 8th new owner". Top left, a picture of a ragged out Miata saying "please let me die." Bottom right, a caricature of broccoli-headed dork saying, "sheesh that looks so fire, 9k was a steal."

What the heck is this doodad?!

oh no my cat melted

A black cat glaring out of a cat bed. The cat is disturbingly blob shaped. It’s like a cat head just floating on a blob of fur.

A #bustedride spotted recently, the front tag gave me a chuckle. Pretty sure this is only a deal if the recipient of it gets paid. @bustedride.bsky.social

A busted up Kia Soul parked on a city street. It looks like it rammed a telephone pole. The license plate ironically reads “what a deal”.

Post your favourite Lord Of The Rings character. Wrong answers only.

Did not particularly enjoy shoveling the 10” of snow off the driveway yesterday, but I wasn’t going to miss Verdi’s Requiem at the Cleveland Orchestra. Also, got a nice sunset as part of the package.

A pretty sunset over a freshly snowed upon suburban street.

Replace toaster oven for $200 or the broken mode switch for $10? I braved cheap, razor sharp stamped metal cases and screws that could only have been originally reached by the hand of a child and went with option 2. Worked out ok!

Looks like DRILRWF

Our void is an idiot loaf, and our tortie is both a wise owl and an agent of chaos. Also, void is not overweight (a svelt 8 lbs), just extremely loaf shaped.

A black cat, sitting on the arm of a couch, in an exaggerated loaf shape. Not overweight, just LOAF.

A tortie cat, sprawled awkwardly across the back of an armchair. Her gaze implies you have no place questioning her methods.

As a long-time Chrome messenger bag carrier, you need this belt.

If you see this, quote post with your model of positive masculinity.

Just visited Harper’s Ferry before the holiday. Had to wear my fav t-shirt (it says “John Brown did nothing wrong”).

A guy standing next to a brick building with a plaque on the wall. The plaque is commemorating John Brown’s raid at Harper’s Ferry. The guys shirt has a portrait of John Brown wearing sunglasses, with the text “John Brown did nothing wrong.”

If you see this, post your getaway vehicle.

Lovely! I had a 2001 Dakar that took a ton of abuse getting me from Ohio to Mexico and back over the span of a year or so. It survived many drops, and even getting sideswiped in downtown Guadalajara.

Spotted this absolutely minty Mercedes 560SEC recently. #cars #carspotting

Selling my 2001 BMW R1200C. It's a cool bike but I'm just not a cruiser guy. Low miles! Located in Northeast Ohio. #motosky

Got a new passenger in my Miata for spooky season.

Lost all front brake pressure on the R1200C, finally got around to getting new brake lines for it. Discovered the grossest brake fluid I’ve ever seen. This could very well be the original brake fluid!

A blue BMW R1200C motorcycle, partially disassembled and surrounded by tools.

An open brake fluid reservoir, with fluid long past its expiration. It looks like engine oil.

Vacationed near Charleston, SC last week so I took a trip to Fort Sumter. Decided to wear my John Brown shirt to see if I could rile the natives, heh. Got 2 very different reactions: 1. Park ranger working at Sumter liked my shirt & told me he'd worked at Harper's Ferry, asked if I'd been (I have).
