  • I’m the same.I got water stones. 1k and 3k grit. I forgot what I paid for them, but I sharpen maybe once a year. More if I notice its not sharp anymore. Stuff gets dropped, hit, banged on pots and pans, etc. Its unavoidable. Chips really bad? Buy another one. The ones I bought last were 2 6inch knives for like $45. Lasted 5 years so far. Usually a quick resharpen, 30 minutes tops. Half of that is getting the stones out and setting them up on the table.

    My first car had electrical problems. I had to go through the trunk if I locked it. It wouldn’t start and I gave up trying to figure out where the problem was so I always pushed started it. I always left a note on the window saying the door was open, please dont break the windows. I can’t start it with the key. There’s nothing in here to steal.

    About once a week I’d see my door open, but nothing destroyed. It also helped it was a manual transmission. I bought it for $1800 and sold it for $1200 after adding 50k miles. 1995 civic




  • Basically a zoetrope at that point.

    Reminds me when I first started pc gaming. I even doubled my RAM to 512mb! I found a mod that basically turned everything into basic polygons where the walls were just red planes, characters looked like minecraft, the guns looked like they were done by a brutalist architect after being verbally described to them. Ran a mean 45 fps, but you had to use something like CCleaner to clear the ram in between rounds.
