I'm sure I contributed to the clicks, when I saw these articles floating around I had to look this guy up as i had no idea who he was. Definatley seen something with him in it before, but couldn't recognize him strictly off name from the news.

    I believe that's what he means. The clutch on drills can stop applying torque at various increments so u don't over tighten screws! Behind the chuck as u rotate the collar the various numbers are the tq limits (roughly, don't take the units literally as quality and age of drill will impact exact figures)

    Most people already have a drill, and you can just chuck the bits in! Beats spinning them in by hand with an Allen key like some sort of neanderthal, aint nobody got the time for that. Also, lots of drills have torque limit settings on the snout so u can be sure u never strip out the threads and touch them up by hand for final torque.

    I'm not saying you should, I'm just saying ur username is awfully hypocritical considering you've stooped to the level of this class of people. Hey man I get it, if you can't beat them join them, but I'm more strong willed than that. Some of us actually have morals, and not the kind that change based on who were dealing with.

    "These resources make me money, so only I should have them". This is like clowning on people for owning their music instead of streaming it, or growing their food instead of going to a super Walmart.

    I once cut my extension cord with my hedge trimmers because I was getting a little ambitious with my trim work. It took me all of 30 seconds to put the wires back together and keep on with my work LOL. In case u aren't aware cords are super easy to repair, especially for a sparky.

    I have a heat pump and it looses efficiency around 45*, and once u get below zero it just cant keep up. I use my heat pump on the shoulder seasons, but have to rely on my oil furnace for the majority of the winter. If I had the loot I'd get a cold weather heat pump setup as they work much better, but I just spent a boat load of money getting my chimney redone and having a wood stove installed in the hope u can stave off my oil bill with wood ... (Chimney NEEDED done anyways, wasn't a big deal to add wood stove at the same time)

    Well u made me look it up. They did a huge ad campaign with Martina Navratilova in the early 2000's. Never heard of the L word show, but I suppose they had to be inspired by real life events seeing as how it was filmed after these ad campaigns took place!

    Yes and no. Subaru has a strong reputation in the queer community (or at least used to) because they were one of if not the first conpany to publically sponsor a queer sports player (female tennis player if memory serves correct but im sure somebody will correct me if im wrong). So even if not their intent, it's easy to see how it could be interpreted as such. They didn't earn the name "lesbaru" for nothing, they actually intentionally advertised to the queer community going back to the 90s if I'm not mistaken !
