i was having a major case of the Monday's today. then i logged into that other RC forum. you know, the ones im "shadow banned" from. 100% of my old posts have been deleted but can make new posts but they don't show up and can't be seen.
well knowing this, and being a pot stirring button pusher, so i think it was yesterday i logged in and made a post that couldn't be seen with some profanity in it. basically giving the users an attaboy for causing some snowflake to tattle about the topic being discussed (no idea what it was, thread appears to have been "cleaned up" by a mod). i was impressed that the pot was still getting stirred. usually i was the one who did that.
so anyway, idk why, but i log in today and notice i have a privet message. it's from a mod letting me know that iv received an infraction for inappropriate language. so somehow im even more banned until the June 21st . so im busted for a post nobody could read, and the punishment is completely irrelevant because i already can't post LMAO! iv been laughing for the last half hour.

i screen shotted it and saved it so i can laugh about it tomorrow to

I'm glad you still stir the pot on that other site.
​​​​​​everything was civil over there so I don't know what was stirring the pot but apparently we have a snitch in the thread.

it may have been the wang shaped wood grain. didn't go through the thread enough to notice. but that's all i can think of.

there's more than one snitch over there. and it's known that one of them is even a former URC user. the guy is way to crotchety for his age. if you've been paying attention and can remember that far back you can see the guys mental capacity diminish.

Really, geez I thought we all had a good laugh and moved on to the next outlandish topic. I think I know who you're talking about with the limited time on was lurking in that forum. Always enjoyed the shapeshifter series.

been talking with another other forum user. it apparently wasn't the wood grain, someone (idk who exactly) had used a non PC slur and it was reported. so i guess there was some merit to it at least.
there's really only one pretentious blowhard who seems to like bringing up his anxiety for no reason so...

4 days to get there and 5 more to get home
day one was from home to Albuquerque. day 2 was from Albuquerque to Oklahoma City. day 3 was from Oklahoma City to Nashville. and day 4 was from Nashville to Harrisonburg VA.
on the way home it was from Harrisonburg to West Memphis AR. then West Memphis to Lampasas TX. then from Lampasas to El Paso. then from El Paso to Flagstaff AZ. then home.

minus the detour to Lampasas we've done that twice before.
what happened was my cousin got a job teaching at a University and moved back there. met his wife, got married, and had kids. so his parents moved back there to be around the grandkids. next thing you know my grandparents are moving back there cause they couldn't afford CA anymore. then my cousin's cousins moved back there. so know practically all the remaining members of the family/extended family have moved back there. it's just me, my brother, parents, and my dads aunt left in CA, everyone else has escaped this blue ****hole of a failed state.

My personal rule for driving is that you must have at least as much leisure vacation time as you do driving. That makes for a long vacation, not that I have issue with that, lol.

this trip was close to 50/50. we got to VA on the 4th and left on the 10th. got to Lampasas on the 11th and left mid day on the 12th. got into Flagstaff pretty early on the 13th. and got home mid afternoon on the 14th. it wasn't bad, i like road trips. i like seeing property's/houses on the side of the highways.

saw something today that never would have flown when i was a kid. 3 boys (roughly 11-13 years old) riding on one e-bike. that butts to nuts stuff never would have flown with anyone i knew when i was that age. it was bad enough when someone's bike was down and they had to hitch a ride on someone's pegs. it was understood, you stand on the pegs, hands go on the riders shoulders and you maintained a gap. if any part of the monkey made contact with the riders back the monkey took a tumble. skin was lost, but it was understood and no feelings were hurt. and then the monkey had to walk the rest of the way. but you never left a man behind, so you rode in circles around him doing tricks and jumping off the curb while ridiculing him for not having a bike. what the hell is wrong with kids today?

82 degrees with 62% humidity. can't go outside and scratch your ass without breaking out in a sweat. miserable out there and iv got projects. humidity just isn't going away this summer. usually it's burned off by know and it's 90 degrees but dry. dry heat can deal with, it's the humidity that drains the life out of ya.


edit:
and now the Asian tiger mosquitos are out. i go out to the garage for 15 minutes and get bit. great.
