You stripped your stem? I'm assuming it was probably very close to being stripped to begin with. That's the one that dude in town gave you for free right?

There should have been a pic! I missed something when I pasted the image link, it's there now! and here too, so you don't have to go back a page.

Ohhhh...

I think I have some hardware I once pulled off a bent caliper hanging around at the shop. I'll do some digging.

one of the guys at my LBS had his bike stolen earlier this year. It was found like this

apparently it's been there for a week, thief locks it up AFTER he breaks it (853 btw)? leaves all the parts though. very weird. wondering if he pissed someone off

I'm not sure if I'd rather find my stolen bike like that, or not at all. I suppose frames are replaceable, but it'd be a real bummer to find your ride like that.

Damn, looks like the thief stole his S&S couplers.

See, this is where I deviate from the norms of society; I totally support cutting off someone's hand for theft.

You steal my ****, I catch you - the only question you should be worried about answering is hand or foot. Period. No, I have no sympathy. Sympathy has bred a society of people who know they can just take and everybody will forgive them and turn the other cheek. F that noise. You'll remember not to steal when you have to wipe your snotty nose with a stump.

qft.

today my AC unit started working again randomly in my studio.
how long will it last.. works for now, am lazy and happy

nvrmind.. stopped working again

Sitting with The BasedGod ATM. He's playing Tetris against another kid saying "suck my ****, *****. Let's go."

what if they steal like the sunglasses out of the cab or your car

I had some asswipe break into my old Jeep and steal my Oakleys, my iPod cable, and my bible out of my center console. Pissed me off. I'd say it's worthy of a losing a finger or two, not sure a whole hand is appropriate, considering the value of the items stolen.

now we're talking

$<100 - top of a finger
$101-$500 - finger
$501-$1000 - two fingers
$1001+ - hand

Today I got my new cog and had a hell of a time getting my old one off. Borrowed a friends chain whip and got the job done though. Excited to try it out on the way to the library later.

I'd just go for $1000.99 items.

...learned the hard way that shimano isn't messing around with requiring those breakaway chain pins. 15 miles of scooting that bastard home, I'm alive, and have a good story I guess, but it's time to steer away from shimano chains.

B* please; my father's beater truck was broken into once by some wackjobhobo in SF who stole ~$4 in parking meter change because it was located in plain sight in the center console. Considering the window was broken to get to it, we would've paid them to not break the window that cost some $200+ dollars to replace.

Er, what kind of other computers have you been using? 4GB is not a lot of RAM . . . :innocent:

Can you elaborate? Do you mean you put the chain together without the special pin? Was it not a new chain (which come with the pins)?

4GB is a lot if all you do is troll BF.

<---- lolthisguy

so my centurion seatpost diameter appears to be 27.0 (probably). 27.2 feels too tight (it's what was in there but when I took it out the post was coated in Vaseline...). I didn't force my 27.2 in there, so tried the 26.8 I had sitting around and it just fell right in.

so is forcing that extra .2 a bad move?

I am not bragging about the amount of RAM. I'm saying I've run twice as many programs as I had ever tried before, and this thing was still fast.

I have the first gen unibody MBP and it's super slow. Need new comp for faster trolling.

Sometimes forcing it in is a bad move. It can lead to tearing and things.

Nashville isn't bad. The hills here make me wish I had my bike. Gonna hang out with an old friend later. Should be a good time.

Today I'll finally finish my LoPro build, I've being running with ononoms but the campy BB just arrived in the mail YAY :D
