Damn kids...

8.1 in the house. 496 glorious fuel injected inches, more torques than you can even count.

Unless someone's packing a 500 cui Caddy motor, it looks like I'm The Man.

Nope, RHarris has you beat. That is a diesel though.

Been on quite a sardine kick lately. Having pretty much a can a day. So good. perhaps an acquired taste.

I go through 2 or 3 cans a week. Prefer them packed in olive oil. My current favorite way to eat them is on top of crackers with a good dollop of sriracha sauce on top.

I can't do it. After too many week long hiking trips with my father and his love for them and consequentially me being forced to eat them and being sick from them the smell alone makes me gag.

After you throw up something like that your brain will never forget the puke/sardine taste. Same with shrimp. Week long whitewater trip with a 20 lb bag of frozen shrimp=epic throw-up. Which sucks because I god damn love shrimp!

Yeah, that's why I can't drink Maker's anymore.

You can't drink Maker's Mark because you ate too many sardines?

That's kind of fascinating, and extremely weird at the same time.

No, I can't drink Maker's Mark because Jeffbucc ate too many sardines.

I apologize that my stomachs inability to properly eject sardines down the proper channel caused a proximal condition known as "freshman girl alcohol tolerance". :rofl:

I can't eat clams or fried clam strips anymore. A couple of years ago I had some bad ones that made me pull off the road and barf every fifteen minutes for four hours. I just can't eat them any more.

I can't drink any whiskey or any dark liquor for that matter. After throwing up my guts multiple times on a stomach full of Jim or Jack, the smell alone nearly triggers a gag reflex. My friend talked me into a shot with him the other night and I nearly threw it up as soon as it hit my tongue, and had to force it down.

I like my sardines in water, oil makes them too... oily. I like to do a turn or two of black pepper on top of them, and eat them on some good club crackers with a dot or two of hot sauce or sriracha.

I'm pretty sure I'd kill myself if I were suddenly unable to enjoy whiskey, rum, etc.

It may also be an allergy thing too. I don't know if it's sulfites or what, but for whatever reason dark liquors, some beers and wine all give me a mild skin rash and flush feeling. Mostly the liquors, not as much the beer and wine. I don't get the same from clear liquor. I think I have pretty much narrowed it down to things aged in barrels, though some clear liquors are also barrel aged, like tequila, which I drink fine. I can drink vodka like water and not have any adverse effects. I guess it's a good thing I'm not a big drinker anyway. I have a few beers if I'm hanging out at a friends or go out, or maybe a margarita or something like that. Otherwise I'm fine without it. Generally, drinking makes me feel worse, not better. Give me some weed over alcohol any day.

"More than you can afford, pal."

I thought it had to be a joke. It isn't. He was taking others for rides and apparently letting some of them drive for donations for typhoon relief for the victims in the Philippines. Apparently a really stand-up guy. That sucks. RIP.

Let the bad jokes commence.

Yeah its a really sad way to go out; by the hands of an idiot who was probably not listening to Paul saying something like "okay, you should start letting off."

What the fuck has my fat ass done!? WENDY'S!!!!!

2780 calories, 118g protein, a cubic fuck ton of sodium and fat and cholesterol.

It was awesome going down, but within 5 seconds of finishing I felt disgusted and ashamed. Just like after sex with a transsexual midget.

Shit that sucks! He was actually a really good guy, shitty films aside. Quite the car enthusiast too. RIP. :(
