1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

Your running low! Better catch a sale!

 

I came home to only one…….beer total!
Luckily I can skate to the store if need be, thankfully grumpy Gus hasn’t been working the self checkout lately who cards me, every single time!

 

Damn, bruh. Whut?!!

 

And that was a road soda from camping! Thankfully it was still cold from the cooler!

 

Why do you care if he cards you?

 

I’ll give it a listen, so I won’t miss it again.

 

I see him almost every other day, is it that hard to remember someone’s face and not be in a pissy attitude every interaction that he has?
I even try to strike up a conversation or ask him how he is, and he just makes a grumble grumble noise and walks away.

 

805 is nothing exciting to me, it's pretty pedestrian, but it's a solid beer. If you go nuts for blonde ales, maybe you'll dig it, but I don't think you do.

Where Firestone Walker really does well is with their Russian Imperial Stouts, which I've got a huge soft spot for ... Old Rasputin is one of my top 10 favorite non-limited-edition beers of all time, but that's North Coast. FW's Russian Imperials with "Parab" in the name (Prabola, Paraboloid are two I remember) are boozy as hell, but I still dug 'em.

FW's choice of IPA styles isn't really in my wheelhouse. I'm more a NEIPA fan, or brut IPA (or any dry IPA that's hop-forward citrus, dank, tropical, etc.). Expedition was good. 805 is not this.

Main reason I mentioned it is because of their stouts. I don't recommend 805, I doubt you'll be impressed. You and I tend to jibe on our beers, based on what I've seen.

 

I usually don't do sours. IPAs first, stouts also.

But I will say, we have a brewery named Three Taverns near us. Their Saporous (link) is freaking awesome.

 

I'm just curious how they compare

 

Sublime makes me think of my ‘97 F150 offroad super cab w band pass sub box center console. Before it got broken into and trashed. It was a nice setup. Probably my best car audio setup so far in this lifetime.

 

Is it awd?

 

Well the MKC pipe doesn't seem to exist anymore. Only options I found online were for MR2 swaps and different brands. The MKC was around $600-$700 which isn't too unreasonable I just can't find it, or much else comparable. I'm sure something is out there somewhere. If you've got a lead on one for the right price I might consider it.

 

last i checked MKC was making them to order. but that was a year ago.

my mr2 is running wilhelms pipe.. not cheap. and would need modification to fit a stock car

 

Yeah I couldn't find it on their website. It looked like what they made was supposed to bolt right on to stock configuration on a Camry or ES or similar. May have to try and email them and find a price.

 

facebook is where they use to sell it.. never on the website

 

nope.

stock toyota cats and modern high flows have been dyno tested so many times now.. i dont see that making any difference to power at all.

 

you can tune out the codes.
the FKS heads have the manifolds integrated. the pipe off the engine is just a 4 bolt flang to an oval pipe.

 

Oh wow. I was cleaning under my daughter's bed and found my 1996 yearbook. Nothing like reading shit from your old friends to make you sad and depressed. I dunno. Sometimes it makes me wonder what it's all for. Anyways, here's some pics.

 

Canyon.

 

I KNOW im supposed to be doing the trucks suspension. I'm just as scared of my bj's as you are...but...

They didn't put enough glitter in my beer this year.

 

Do you find out the next morning, kinda thing?

 

The glitter probably settled to the bottom. Next time, shake it well before you open it.

 

Not my first time even after shaking it's just not as sparkly

Not the next morning just in the glass please and thank you.

 

Yup. Got my junior and senior year book here. The kids think it's hilarious. I graduated a couple of years earlier than you.

 

I tossed my High School yearbook years ago. I only kept it that long because I forgot I had it.
