We went to the theme park yesterday, and the 2016-2017 free refillable popcorn tub's lid broke. I can't imagine going through all of next year without a lid. Never know what people might do when we're on the water rides and the stroller and popcorn are unattended and uncovered...

You wouldn't want your popcorn roofied. Wake up face down in the haunted mansion. *shudder*

Is it true that Cosby can't see? Still surprised that Dr. Huxtable was capable of all that...

I had a non-BMW guy/photographer jump in my car for a bit yesterday to take some rolling shots of our group while cruising and I complained that my fob battery died and I was using my second fob and the damn thing wasn't programmed to remember my favorite radio stations.
Hahahaa he looked at me and said, uh first world problems! :

Um, no it's not! Having to manually search for music is very inconvenient. Hopefully you had the car towed home and kept it parked until you could get the fob recharged....

We usually go to the Y, which is state of the art, and so I rarely go to LA Fitness anymore.

Saturday, because I was searching for cheap gas, I decided to workout at LA Fitness. I asked the guy at the counter, if he could tell me when my membership expires? He goes, "July 2018. Man you like to pay ahead of time."

So I figured I'd slum it and workout there. Not only do they not have cable tv in 1080p on the machine, they don't even have cable tv on the machine at all. I almost had a nervous breakdown and was about to call Fred to pick me up. Then I remembered someone in OT mentioned Yacht Rock was available on Spotify.

She dialed 911. Like that time when her parents wanted to make her go on vacation with them or when Burger King messed up her sandwich.

That'd be my move. Good call.

I gave amazon my mobile number to save $5, then found out it could not be removed, unless another one is entered in its place, and confirmed via text. I really don't want them to have my mobile number, so I got tricked.

Decided I really have to change the number and so I put JTodd's cell in the box, but nothing happened for 6 days. Looks like he finally confirmed it this morning...

So a BMW guy would have felt the pain? Or the fact that he was not a BMW guy shows that he is poor and probably doesn't have a key fob so he cannot relate to your troubles?

The battery in Wifey's key fob for my car died, so I replaced it. But the "Replace Key Battery" warning still pops up.

Sometimes when at a light and turning left, I make sure I'm stopped right above the wire sensor in the ground that activates advance turn. However the left turn signal doesn't turn on and I have to wait for all the cars to pass.

What kind of bullshit is that.

Did you remove the protective film on the battery before installing it?

I overlooked this once and cursed/swore a few times at myself for making a silly mistake

Pretty sure I did, but I'll check again.

I was picking up a cashier's check for the car I'm getting on Sat., and of course there is no charge for it, I'm a "gold" customer.

They didn't do a SAR on me like last time, because I was up front--hey, I'm buying a car. It probably helped to put the full amount on one check, whereas with the 335i, I asked for 3 checks, $9,999.99 each (what kind of moron would do that in real life?).

Feeling confident, I mean I knew the two bankers were mentally undressing me, I ask if I could get a hundred or so of those free basic checks, I'm running out.

The banker James told me they're really sorry, but my gold status gets me 50% off, or it's $9.99 for 50. I turn to Thomas, and he concurs. This really ruined my day and the way I feel about banking in general. I'll probably have to go home and take the day off to sulk. $10 for checks...
