I’m curious about a few to the degree I bought 5 to try out.  They should be here shortly.  If all is what it’s advertised, I plan on buying one to gift to my brother. 

I didn’t want to start another thread over a topic few may be into.  But if anyone has knowledge or experience with these knives, please let me know your thoughts. I’ve inadvertently done research through other browsing on my interests.

A putty knife enthusiast here!   Whatever floats the boat!  

Side note, I received part of my knife order.  I did order a nice ferro rod.  For those that don’t know, it’ll make fire.  Geared to and marketed towards bushcrafters and “survivalists.  I got a really nice 3/8”  rod, haha, today.  It came with a striker.  The striker has a can opener on it.  I suppose to “gimmick” their way to more potential buyers.  I’m wondering, if I need this rod to make fire in order to live, who the hell is supplying the beer?  I’m guessing there is a beer fairy in the woods??

I was on the Walmart site as I often do when I need stuff like laundry soap, trash bags, and other household items. As a joke, I typed in the word "Bondage" to see if a family oriented company would sell that stuff, and sure enough, they do. I found 25 pages of kinky womens wear, books, and other items related to that. I guess Walmart doen't want to be left behind in that area or discriminate against people that participate in that very area...........

Walmart now allows third party sellers to sell on their site, trying to catch up with Amazon.

Yes, they have third party sellers.  But I’ve seen that stuff in store too.  They have plenty of duct tape, zip ties and rope.  They even carry hacksaws and shovels if things get out of hand or if someone forgets a safe word.

Had to look it up.  But a very valid and understandable fear.  Also, a great band name.

I always tell my victims to scream if they want more. That or “harder” as a safe word.

All that sound deadening insulation in your panel van really pays off!

You call it sound deadening insulation, I find it quicker and easier to say “pillow”.
Paul McCartney is doing a concert in Baltimore Maryland, it's only about an hour bus ride to get there. I was thinking of getting tickets to the show because I like his stuff, but when I clicked on the website where you get the tickets, I saw that even the cheap seats were almost $500, I said NOPE!
My daughter had a birthday party to attend today. It was at a trampoline/ Dave and busters place for kids. Sure, there where other parties going on plus the normal family patrons that were there. I fully anticipated chaos and potentially a limb broken or joint sprained or being super busy. I’m not a crowd kind of guy. In all honesty, It seemed like a cool place. I kinda wish there was an adult version. But what struck me the most was a few parents I saw, non in our group, wore masks. I’m not a Dr (by trade, at least, maybe I’ll pursue it on my spare time) but what point does it make to wear a mask when you send two of your kids into a pit of styrofoam blocks?

probably more suited to the trivial annoyance thread, but nearly everything is priced out of reach of everyday fans to enjoy stuff.

I don't mind paying more for a show that puts on a hell of a stage production or has a large cast of performers splitting the proceeds (think something like TSO/broadway show), but unless this is a tiny venue, that's highway robbery.

People will still pay it, though, otherwise they wouldn't set the prices that high.

I revel in anyone sticking it to WF. They can get bent.

It'll be tomorrow.  Thought my manager was back from PTO today, but I checked the team calendar and it's tomorrow.  I've already emailed him requesting some time on his calendar.  Although I'm leaving it up to him to schedule so it may not be tomorrow.  I'm sure this week anyway.
