KL2DC & Josh49 Lounge (drop in to shoot the sh!t)

Needed a spot to carry on some conversations without going too far off-topic in threads.. Here it is now. Feel free to drop in and talk to whoever is online. Have a beer before entering too. This thread is all in good fun, no offense is allowed to be taken..

Cheers,
Josh49

Haha same here. Got home from work, had one beer, and fell asleep by accident.. Woke up at 10:30 pm. Had a small bite to eat, couldn't keep my head up, so I went back to sleep. Just woke up.. Feel really refreshed too, what a long week..

When I woke up at 10:30 I looked at the one empty bottle of Sam Adams, and thought to myself, "Great, you're a one beer queer now.."

Not bad, raining a little. So far it's been really warm. This is the first week it's been "cold". Bruno is doing a good job of spraying CFC's into the atmosphere to keep this place warm. What about DC?

It's been a long time coming. If you try to make a joke or talk smack in a "real" thread people start to freak out. Figured there needed to be a place to come and talk some smack with some people you know, and not get called "a unconstructive jerk" by the newbies..

Low 50s this morning, we're warming up again. Should be a bit damp though, for the next few days.

we've had quite a few amusing exchanges between us, often at the expense of someone else's thread/discussion. All in good fun, I say.

Haha, true. This website needs some humor though. Everyone takes it too seriously... Figure maybe this thread would loosen some people up and people might start to calm down.

You only need 5 posts to hit 5K, get over to the "good price for blacklines" thread and work your magic..

I've always liked them, but always thought they were too expensive for what they were. That's not a bad price over there, they might be pretty beat up though.. We'll see..

I think I'm gonna savor the last 5 posts .... frankly I have no idea where those 5,000 posts could've come from. I suspect a good quarter of those were spent trying to get folks to hop on the blacklines wagon

Damn, That's a lot of posting. You post from work too, correct? I would hope that's not all in your free time..

Man we joined the same month, and you have 4,000 posts more than me..

I have been rallying vendor support for cost effective quality painted front splitters for quite some time. I always thought those would be great mod solutions for a lot of folks. Then katsbimmer and trendix set such a gb up a few months ago and I was definitely in. Still awaiting delivery, should be coming in mid-february. I can't wait.

Also finally getting decent wheels, a set of 197s, those should be on end-Feb.

Pretty excited with those major changes

I think 95% of the posts were from work ... sssshhhhh. Although I see your posts up here during office hours as well so....

You'd think work productivity would've gone down in relation to number of workplace posting, but quite the contrary. Last year was a pretty good year. I can't explain it

That's awesome. I won't tell the others. Same here, I usually don't do this from home, mainly just at work. IT is pissing me off with this new half-blocking non-work sites. B*****s..
