"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I have a Kenmore front-loading washing machine. I love it. I have had mine for 4 years and had another set for a bit over a year before that. I really like them.

I like my Bosch dishwasher. I am having problems with getting the dishes as clean as I would like sometimes though.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

We got the Kenmore HE3's, but they were more than $1000. Also front-loading, quiet, efficient. We paid Sears for the maintenance contract, which I know people advise against, but we've already had them out, so we've gotten our money's worth. (Not a problem with the units, just with the conversion to propane.)

Our wings are not tired

I won't ever set foot in a Sears again after the great air conditioner debacle a few years ago. Stellar lack of customer service. We have a great pair of LG front loading stackables. They are from the Tromm product line and have been amazing and are very quiet. They were a bit on the expensive side, but they have been worth every penny and were very highly rated when we purchased them.

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

Apart from the fact that youtube doesn't play for shit on Opera/Mac anymore, that's pretty nifty.

Hey. New board.

Haha. Awesome. Go underground Youtube advertising campaigns!

(The best part was when they made the Lemmings noise then 'sploded)

All is well that ends in pizza.

Huh, works fine on Firefox on the Mac.

I wonder if I have a copy of Opera that's up to date? I know I'm a tech dinosaur running Tiger...

Art Crawl!!!

Help - my ir legs won't stay in place!

What can I use to make them stay? (The lower one - which has the BOX sitting on it is the one that moves.)

Do I need to do something to raise the box? Can I use duct tape or something similr (please specify) to make it stay better?)

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Duct tape would work. (I used scotch, but it needed replacing every so often.)

And it would be okay? Like, it wouldn't make things overheat or anything?
