    I'm definitely pro-sash, but what I really want besides the hat are god's own supply of silver epaulets.

    Not on the toilet with the bidet installed though because I couldn't walk those ten extra steps to that bathroom without shitting my pants

    I posted these in the things that don't need threads thread, but since they my new favorite thing, they fit here as well. These are my new badass spiked Crocs. Next I'm buying a motorcycle and growing a handlebar mustache to join some form of biker gang.

    There's a Transformers lorebook I've been eyeing for a few years. By most accounts it's not great, ties into a dead continuity and is sold with a silly 'transforming' electronic case, jacking up the price.
    TransformersCovenantofPrimusCovers.jpg

    It was $100 when it was first released and has only gone up in price (I've seen $200 on ebay easily). It's a very dumb thing and overpriced to boot. Still, I would check ebay for it every few months or so and same story; until I found a charity auction and folks I will pay a lot of money to buy some real stupid shit if it's for charity.

    So yeah, that dumb thing should be coming in the mail one of of these days.

    Naw man there are several people defending their decision to support transphobia and anti semitism in the PlayStation thread.

    Truth be told, I more closely resemble le petite e'mperour than a tall drink of water like Joacium Murat, but yearn to embrace my inner fop.

    Murat is definitely one of the most interesting personalities of the Napoleonic Wars.

    My particular army is the III Corps at The Battle of Ligny, meaning I would have to swallow being Dominique Vandamme, whom historians generously describe using such terms as "lout", "abrasive", "violent", and of whom Napoleon once is attributed as saying " If I had two of you I would be forced to order one to hang the other." Vandamme never made Marshal due to being utterly insufferable.

    I haven't, no. The only thing holding me back is I'm not actually sure what I would use it for. It's such a nice piece though.

  • GrisloGrislo Registered User regular
    It's best to buy it, just in case you suddenly need it for something.

    It's basically preempting a future emergency, so it's almost problematic if you don't buy it.

    If you can get a copy of your prescription from your optometrist, you can save a load of money ordering your glasses (if that's what you're after) through Zenni Optical. Like, my opt wanted to charge me $500 per pair, and Zenni charged me $50.*

    On that note, if you’re near a Warby Parker store, I believe they do an exam and one pair of glasses for $170. Or $95 for glasses only if you already have a prescription.

    No insurance needed, but they do also accept it if you have it.

    Yup. Pretty neat.

    So tell me what bidet you got and how did you solve the power situation? I'd love to get one but the nearest outlet is all the way across the bathroom.

    You can get plenty of bidets that don't use power. Either cold water only (which is not really as jarring as you might imagine it to be, honestly), or ones that tap into the hot water line from your nearby sink. Honestly, we've been so happy with our cold water one that we haven't felt any need to "upgrade" to one that takes a hot water line.

    I got the Toto Washlet C5, because if you're going to town you might as well go in a Lincoln.

    The power situation was solved by having a pre-existing outlet within reach of the cord. I don't think there's any actionable advice there other than "buy a house with bathrooms sized for 1920s sensibilities."
