It's that time of year, yes, the holidays. Most likely you have family traditions that you enjoy. Perhaps it is in the food, maybe there is a story behind what and/or how you decorate or whatever it is that might be unique to you until "this time" of year. What is it? Please share.
Anyone knowledgeable about the workings of the automobile? Can someone explain why it seems that your car uses more gasoline when idling versus when it's in motion?
🙄 The action your describing about the car turning off and on at red lights, is that of a Hybrid car. A hybrid car is one that is battery and gasoline powered. To which I said YUCK! Had a rental car that did that, I thought it was stupid and annoying. ESPECIALLY when you're at said stop light, car shuts off, and you want to do a full throttle start from a stop to fuck with the person in the other lane... It jerked and chocked up, not my idea of something that works efficiently.
I do not live in a big city, I'm 50 miles north of Detroit but work in the city. If you are going to work, the money is predominantly found in the big cities.....
Well if you ran the "climate control" used to be heat or ac, the compressor runs all the time to dry the air going into the car. a waste of hp from the engine in my humble opionion.
IF you think about it though,a car,going hwy speed in overdrive,would be traveling roughly 60 mph. Over drive on the transmission allows the engine to run at a low rpm.Idle is around 6 to 700 rpm's overdrive at 60 about 1400.So you take the 70 minutes you sat idleing,you would have traveled over 60 miles. You would have used about 2/3's or so of gas at idle as you would at highway speed.
I do use "climate control" and set it to 72 degrees to keep the cabin of the car comfortable.
Gosh, our temperature in Michigan has been up and down. If the day is on the warmer side, we can reach a high of almost 40 degrees, but the average day has been in the high 20's, low 30's and when the sun sets, it's much colder.
This usually happens when a car runs rich on idle. If your car noticeably vibrates on idle - that's probably it and you should check your ignition system with a specialist.
Actually, I did notice that there was an occasional "wiggle" aside from when the car automatically shifts from 4 cylinder to 6 cylinder and vice versa. Thank you, I will ask the dealership to look at that possibility when I take the car in for an oil change. Thank you.
Nothing wrong with that Caddy. If it was, it would tell you as the computer's are pretty phenomenal in them. Constant stopping and starting in traffic is the culprit. I would defer you to your estimated city e.p.a. gas mileage number. Also, the technology behind the thought process of disabling a certain number of cylinders when not needed to boost gas mileage is not perfect, still. Therefore, the transition between 4 - 6 cylinders or 4 - 8 to be used is not exactly a completely smooth or unnoticeable transition. They would like it to be, and many dealers tout it, but it's not. I wouldn't worry about it, it's the stop and go that kills gas mileage.
Your spot on scorps when a car idles to long it tends to load up with carbon deposits causing a misfire burning more fuel they also tend to run a little hotter my advice is to get out of traffic and run the catty down the highway it will clear up --------------------------------------- added after 4 minutes
Here in Pennsylvania we had a fricking ice storm today and people just don’t know how to drive in the shit I pulled three vehicles out of the ditch right in front of my garage
I agree with dgraff you should use the higher octane gasoline in a car such as a caddy. It provides more efficient combustion in the engine which should help improve fuel economy.
Yes like DG said premium (high Octane) fuel is a must on a modern car. And don't shop around for cheap fuel. try to buy it at the same place. EG their tanks am not old and has a high turnover. I can feel when I get a shit load of fuel. We have a cheap E10 fuel available here and its nothing but trouble. I spend most of my weekend fixing E10 problems like the engine light ( money light we call it in the trade ) and decent fuel is the only fix
Somehow all of the aforementioned problems are Bjuka's fault.. He has been a real sour cunt this week! And that rotten cunt cashed in my Christmas cake I sent! Fuck off!!
Holy crap, dgraff, I haven't had that happen in quite some time! Great teamwork and I believe that ukdilf might have received 30 points, too!
There was total 100% CONCENTRATION by the entire "team" to be able to complete 6 passes and I say "WOO HOO" to that! It's too bad there wasn't a 7th pass.
What is the highest number of clean passes that have been achieved, does anyone know?
I don't know if anyone saw this on their local news, it is definitely news worthy! In Tracy, California, a 2year old German Shepherd chased a cat up a 25' foot tree and needed to be rescued.
You don't need to be verified to have your picture(s) on the Popular page, your picture(s) just need to attract views, votes and comments, ie, be POPULAR with the members!
That’s a touchy grey area they may be but there are other members that have things like that on their page to some of them are members years all ready so if we make an issue on this one then it’s only fair to go after the others I personally think it’s ok as long as they don’t try to claim it’s themselves --------------------------------------- added after 18 minutes
And also what about cartoon figures I see lot’s of them and they come from the internet hell I even have one on my page
All I’m saying is we must be careful how far we take things or it could come around to bite us in the ass
They MUST be from the internet. Afterall... What's the odds of knowing more than one chick with a dick, considering I don't know of even ONE. I agree though, if they aren't claiming to be that person, no harm no foul. Otherwise, you'd have to take action on those posting birds, cheetahs, etc. that they didnt personally take. That being said, I made the front page, i can't believe it! 😁
Common sense? Okay. Common sense on whose part? Wouldn't it be common sense if members did not view, vote and comment on these pictures? Or even if they "evaluated" the picture? Wouldn't it make might sense if admin offered a category for internet pictures so that real members weren't competing with commercial porn pictures? What dgraff is saying makes sense to me. I find that it is difficult to justify deleting members for posting internet pictures when other members are guilty of the same wrong doing.
Wait. One week we allow internet pics the next we delete the member? This is what my friend Rick calls a FUBAR.
Maybe there should be a rule. Tits or dicks. Not both
The site is not supposed to have internet pics. And it's a violation of copyright laws to intentionally host copyrighted materials without their owners permissions. As long as they are occasional, within fair use, etc. - it's not a problem but for that they should not be a majority, just a minor portion. Also, I simply don't want this site to be something that it's not. It was made for people to share their photos. This site will be overwhelmed with internet pics if all members think they are ok.
If members want to share their favorite internet pics they can do it on their own page without placing them into categories. Or even for friends only.
There is an option in evaluation tab that says "internet pic". You know how many pics get evaluated as internet pics? After 10 years I'm yet to see one. May be someone occasionally presses it, but it requires several members to express the same consern to be flagged as "internet pic" and I have not seen a single one pic flagged like this in 10 years.
Being one of the dumbest of all blondes, I don’t understand the reasoning for an internet pic. Recently I uploaded a pic I thought it was mine. From the neck down I thought it was mine. It wasn’t,. I took it down. What would be the advantage of using an internet pic? Vanity? Points?
Um, I'm going to call BULLSHIT on you saying that you uploaded an image that you did not know was you. I'm going to remind you that years ago, when we first "met", your page was riddled with internet pictures and you were referred for deletion because of that. Yes, you removed the pictures, in fact, all of your pictures, and basically blamed me because of that.
The picture that you "recently" uploaded and removed was similar to the original commercial picture, in the respect that both you and the model were sitting on something red but that's were the similarity ends.
And your point Highness? --------------------------------------- added after 6 minutes
Never mind. If you want to bring me into this, then let me remind you that 1) I apologized to you at the time and 2) You've been a bitch since that time with me. You don't have an argument, Admin spanked your ass yet again, so you lash out to get your nasty streak out. Well, have at it. Everyone knows how you operate.
Regarding point 2) You have been the "bitch", you blamed me for your removing your pictures from your profile back then and have taken every opportunity since then to publicly call me a bitch.
As far as admin spanking my ass yet again, that might be what you call it. He does keep a very watchful eye on me and is quick to insult me. My guess is that in the big picture of things, he does not regard women very highly.
admin, it seems you feel like my thought process is wrong. If memory serves me correctly, there are at least 2 current premium paid members on the SYD side that upload internet pictures and whose pictures make it to the Popular page.
It is difficult to expect and hold some members to different standards when they see internet pictures being displayed on the main page.
I don't care what paid members do as long as it is not a criminal offence. Occasional copyright violation is not a criminal offence and I can always throw them under the bus since I have their real data. I explained this multiple times, it will be their responsibility, not mine. Which is not the case with members who do not pay. You are either retarded and can't remember what I say or you just play your stupid games again.
I was always open that there are different standards. Some hide behind anonymity of internet and some pay and provide their real data. They are different and therefore different standards apply to them. I don't know why it's so hard to grasp. If you share an appartment with someone who pays a part of the rent and with someone who just lives there for free because you let them and you pay all the rent, you will treat them differently no matter what you may say about it. I'm not even pretending it is not so.
I can formulate it even clearly if it does not sink in - if you do not pay you have no solid rights at all on this site and everything depends on my mood of the moment. Despite that I try to be fair to everyone to the best of my human abilities this is true and I was always straight about it. You don't pay - you may be kicked out of here for whatever reason, for internet pics, for being stupid, for being annoying, for being rude to other members, etc.
You personally would be kicked out of this site hundreds of times already for stirring shit if you would not pay. And I can't stress it enough that a lot of people are also not content with this situation and think it's unfair double standard. But as I said - I never pretended that there are no different standards for paid and free members.
So I am what you want to label retarded because when it comes to evaluating non paying members for deletion, I do not chose to hold them a different standard than paying members?
I am of an age and live in a country that strives for equality for all. A country where women can speak up and speak out without fear of being slapped in the mouth by a man who thinks of her as stupid or retarded. Do we have equality in the United States? No, but what I can do is to strive to treat people equally.
I do recall a conversation that we had where you expressed that you did not like it when members "begin there life" on SYD/SYC by posting internet pictures.
I am more apt to vote to delete new members that upload internet pictures versus members that have "tenure". I also look at the way the picture is titled. Is the member claiming the picture to be of them and I acknowledge that I am more firm and less tolerant with the way that I view SYC referrals.
You would be the only member that I "remind" because you seem to be so forgetful. For heaven's sake, to hear you tell the "story", you aren't even able to determine which picture is of you. Is it the picture of the young female with the beautiful creamy skin sitting on something red or is it the picture of the other female with no waistline trying to be a copycat? And I have and will continue to "remind" you that I won't drop to your level of a sewer rat.
Apples and oranges. I was 28 and had 2 kids already. Not a teen beauty sitting on a red table cloth. Copycat? That from a member that never shows much except milky white tits? Tits that belong on a 200 lb woman? Right! Anyway, if you are going to pose sitting on a table, how would you do it? Stand on your head with legs spread?
One thing about sewer rats, they are what they are. They don't pretend to be something and act in another way. --------------------------------------- added after 19 minutes

So you’re saying I have no common sense I evaluated every case for the last 4 years I do have a little law experience you’re a member a few months longer than me if you want to change things then take part in the abuse process I take it very seriously
