With a wedding in Salt Lake City this weekend and Tampa next weekend, I am trying to figure out the best way to travel with my entire suit. I'm flying US Air to SLC and Jet Blue to Tampa but I cannot find any sort of policy to see if they hang suits for you. I don't wanna scrunch it up in my suitcase

They'll often hang it for you if you ask nicely.

The secret to wrinkle free suit travel is to get a roller with a folding suiter and keeping the suit inside the plastic wrap from the dry cleaner. It may need a slight touch up from an iron when you get there but usually it's fine.

Yep, this. :thumbsup:

I've been using fake names for my "business" operations (e.g. Craigslist). I'm not doing anything shady, but I feel dirty when people call me by them.

IRS is suing me according to the message I got on my phone. FML...

If a number isn't in my contact list, the phone gets muted, and if it's important, they can leave a voicemail. Today I had a surprise voicemail when I checked my phone. Spammers don't usually leave one, but since this was a robot, it was more persistent I guess. Assholes...

I forgot something at home, so I have to take a 2 hour lunch to drive home and get it. I might have to extend that lunch hour even more or just take the rest of the day off if I decide to go to the shooting range, too.

Someone shit his pants... Sad because he was doing everything but run to a toilet for a minute leading up to it.

Meeting guy from Craigslist tomorrow in a public place, mall. There's something about him that's raising red flags though...

I want to be buried with my stereo -- plan is cremation so in my stereo?

I guess that's a marginally better idea than meeting him under a bridge in a blacked out van. :whiste:

You should be fine, but if he offers you candy, don't go with him. Candy or a puppy. Either way - bad sign.

I got a scratch in the middle of my glasses, which is really annoying because it's directly in my field of vision. And I'm too busy to stop by the glasses store today to get it buffed out, which is making my neffing experience subpar

I can fix this one, with a first world solution:
Go to Zenni Optical and get 6 pairs for less money than your next dime bag.
Toss them when they get damaged.

Look, Loretta, will you take $70 for the Ronson Testicle Stretcher or not?

I Craigslisted something today in an underutilized, off the beaten path parking lot. Because it was dusk, I kept my hoodie on, along with my hat and sunglasses, to keep the sun from blinding me. Did I mention that it was really warm outside?

Can't help but feel that the guy who arrived in an expensive SUV thought I five-finger discounted the item -- I also mentioned that I wanted to get rid of it quickly. The item was like 5 years old but still in production, so my price was about 1/4 of current retail.

Got my new SSD installed, fresh installation of Windows, all drivers up to date, start downloading games through Steam again... and then Windows update needs to install 88 updates. Windows update needs to install 7 updates. Windows update needs to install 1 update. Windows update needs to install 117 updates. Windows update can't install updates until you update Windows update. Windows update needs to install 208 updates. Windows update has stopped working. Windows update failed to update Windows update; click here to update Windows update. Windows update needs to install 2,578 updates. Windows update needs to install 1,745,221,393 updates, but open a separate dialog box for every single one, restart three times between each, and forget its place and restart from scratch midway through.

Windows update needs to fuck off and die.

-EDIT- Oh, and after literally years of failing to get into Witcher 2, I finally started enjoying the game, and my drive crashing out apparently wiped out the entirety of my saved games, so now I have to restart from scratch. Which I may be able to do some point next March when Windows update is finally done.

Found out my left arm rest is cracked length-wise on a seam. Rest of chair still fine. Need to find solution that doesn't involve duct tape.

I'm super particular about the fit though, how do you manage the adjustments?
