I've really got to learn to just do the damage and get out of town. It's the 'stay and gloat' that gets me every time.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Dynamic Furniture. So far the robotic chair is my favourite.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

In/under the glovebox? Somewhere else under the dash?

No clue. I'm going to root around a bit and see if I can find it before I head out.

Hmm. I've actually never seen an ODB port - I've only ever owned one car that had it.

This is my second that has one, but no idea what they look like either.

Mine is under a small panel near the fusebox, to the left of the steering wheel. I'm sort of boggled they want you to do that, since...it requires less intelligence to do (once you know where it is, which people dealing with all sorts of cars all day probably should) than opening the car door. And dang, they let them race the engines on cars without ports. You'd think opening a teeny door was less of a liability. (Last emissions test, I saw them trash a transmission on an older car. Now granted, it probably was on its last legs, but they really really should have quit when it started to scream.)

My brother has that plus all sorts of other crap plugged into a laptop that lives in the passenger seat. It's sort of hilarious.

Today was not the day to wear makeup. I'm pretty much trashed.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

My mom loves tacky lawn ornaments. She knows that they're tacky. Pink flamingos, and alligator, the drunk guy leaning on the light post, they make her SO HAPPY.

Any idea on super tacky lawn ornaments for Mother's Day?

Also, I want to send my SIL something, it's totally appropriate to send Mother's Day gifts to a family member who isn't your mom, right?

Why would they want you to open it before you go? Aren't they supposed to be the experts?

The mooning farmer & farmer's wife! A gyrating monkey windmill! (I swear, wind blows and it does this obscene looking hulaish dance. Hrmm, where did I see that?)

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Also, I want to send my SIL something, it's totally appropriate to send Mother's Day gifts to a family member who isn't your mom, right?

Absolutely. It's for anyone who's a mother, not just your mom.

I'll take a look in that area, thanks.

Not a clue. I don't know if they're worried their "experts" won't be able to find it or what.

Does your mother have one those shiny bowling ball thingies yet? They're all over the place around here and I can't help but shake my head at them.

ETA: ION, I have to wonder if they're pumping stupid gas into the air system at the local hospital this morning. So far my calls have consisted of a person not knowing what to put in the "current password" field when changing their password, someone who couldn't find a window they had just launched and someone who couldn't see anything on their screen because their monitor was turned off.
