So my car door handle fell off this morning. It's just a metal handle, and it's not like the whole piece disconnected... the metal just snapped. I can still see the other part attached to the car.
I feel like this should be fixable. My coworker recommended just getting some epoxy and attaching the handle back to its base, but my dad says any cementing/gluing job I do could not possibly prepare this handle to endure the forces it has to endure. He also says there is no epoxy that I can use in this weather (currently 8 degrees farenheit and fairly wet)
Who is full of shit? Is there anything I can do with this? I don't want to spend the rest of the winter trying to get in through the other side of the car, and I don't really see this necessitating a mechanic.
In fact, I'm not sure this is the kind of thing a mechanic is for at all.
JB Weld won't work in the cold. You have to replace the handle. On some cars it's a matter of a few screws. On others you're removing the inside door panel. Cost for it will be between $140 to $200 at most shops but I have no idea what labor costs are in Alaska.
if he can dismantle it, he can probably do the gluing indoors too...
You're overstating the difficulty. Removing the trim panel requires some special but cheap tools. But it's not work that requires access to a garage.

Tacos don't seem like they would make good party food at all. The best party food is a large quantity of delicious bite sized food.
what if they were bite sized tacos
The only bite sized tacos I know about are terrible frozen food shit.
You mean you don't eat regular tacos in a single bite?
My ex made taco pockets, where she'd get a crescent roll tube, then wrap the dough around cheese and seasoned ground beef. Those were pretty good. They were small and could easily be made bite sized. I think those would be a good party food.

Casey Anthony is filing for bankruptcy - she'll never get a job for the rest of her life - but I lol'd when I heard a Florida woman named Zenaida Gonzalez is suing Anthony for defamation. Anthony originally told authorities that a babysitter named Zenaida Fernandez Gonzalez kidnapped the little girl but the police figured out that babysitter never existed.
Roy Kronk is also suing Anthony for defamation. He's the meter maid who found Caylee's dead body but he claims his reputation was severely impacted when Casey Anthony's lawyer tried to imply that Kronk was the real killer.

It's pretty mild, I am just going to take some Dayquil, eat well, and sleep well tonight and if I don't shake it I'll go tomorrow
Surely it would be better if it wasn't in a petrol station?
