Bowling for Soup has a song out called "Getting Old Sucks (but everybody's doing it)" Where they're pretty much the old guy-get-off-my-lawn guys. At one point they're listing off their health conditions and end the verse with "what the fuck is tiktok?". That pretty much sums it up. Very few people over the age of I would guess 35 even know what it actually is other than the news constantly telling them it's making all the kids crazy

Edit: holy shit this angered some folks. I'm 40. I don't know a single person that uses it, though their kids do. That's the extent. I was agreeing with the original comment here that this dude seems to be full of shit if he's going to claim it's mostly used by young professionals.

Malcolm (?) Or Seward (?) Nebraska used to launch these every year. Never went but heard about it. Not sure how far away they kept the crowd but always seemed like "yeah that's too close" when people would talk about it.

Only went a few times as a kid but immediately recognized what this was from. Had no idea the band had names though. In fairness I think I literally went 2 maybe 3 times ever.

A 2 HP, 2.6 gal tank? That thing should fill and shut off in a couple minutes. You'll see decent drops in pressure quickly though from using tools because the tank is so small. So the compressor will kick back on constantly.

Sounds defective if it's really taking 20 minutes to fill.

Don't worry. Our very own definitely-not-compromised Supreme Court will overturn this anyway so we'll be back to just the latter part of your list soon enough

SR71 originally. They decided it "sounded more like a Bowling for Soup song" and gifted it to them, becoming one of their biggest hits.

Bowling for Soup has a new-ish song out not called "Getting old Sucks (but everybody's doing it)" that does seem like a fitting follow up to this though.

Not just leaders. Right-wing nutjobs in general. I have a coworker that blares talk radio 24-7. He was telling us a few years ago how China was amassing troops on the IL-IN border in preparation to invade. Oddly, it never happened. And also...just no fucking clue where to start with that one. But he's CONSTANTLY ranting about China. All of my...educated coworkers are.

That just means the black line runs everything at the fan. But if you want the switch to work, you'll just have to open up the fan and split the wires off from being tied together is all. The red wire is likely there from a previous install and simply capped off inside the fan currently.

Glad you got it working instead of having to call someone though. Congrats

And I'm sure you've checked, but fans usually have a pull switch for the light. Make sure that hasn't been pulled, just in case. I know I've done that before

Time to open the fan/light and see if you can get continuity from the red line to where the lights are. I don't know of anything inside that switch that would have been doing anything at all besides simply being a switch.

Another option- red seems to be the light, right? Wire it directly to hot and see if you have a light. If not, your problem is elsewhere.

Should be, and it looks like you put the wire on the screw rather than into the back, so no reason they wouldn't be sharing the hot then.

Since it's a light: is the bulb dead? Is there something going on at the fan end that you need to look at? If you're positive you have the hot correct then what you have is what should work. If the light is still out, look elsewhere.

You mentioned elsewhere a remote for the fan, so really you don't want the fan off a switch, you want it always live so the remote works. (Assuming you plan to use the remote) in which case you would just wire the fan line directly to the hot and install a single switch between hot and the light.

If the fan is remote controlled, you want to always have power to that portion, so no switch. Otherwise the remote only works if the switch is on.

I would verify which black the red is paired with and then you at least know which one runs to the fan and you're positive which one is hot.

Does the light work with BOTH switches on? You could be feeding power back thru the top one if, again, you have your blacks swapped

So right side the tab is still intact, so as long as that's power in, this wiring should work. However, if you're wrong on power and let's say the left black is power, this would make perfect sense- the red never sees power, which is likely your light then. Try swapping your blacks there.

One thing I forgot to mention with situations like this: since there's a red present and only one, you can bet that goes to the fan/light and is therefore not power. Which means the black that is part of that same run is ALSO not power. So by process of elimination, the other black is your power. It's also usually a good clue which one power is if there are a bunch of blacks together in a wirenut. No reason to have 4 runs to a single fan and the switch needs to interrupt power for it.

Sorry. Probably should have said all this earlier. Had just woken up from a nap and I have a young toddler so my brain is kinda fried at times

So it looks like the switch previously just took power in and split it up for you onto the twi switches. The new one will do the same, so long as you don't break the little separater tab off the side, it's just that your new one will be external so you can see it.

All you need to do here is determine which wire is which. And even then, you really just need to know which one is hot/line in. So if you have any means of non-contact testing that, do that. Otherwise multimeter to check connectivity up to the fan by making a closed loop you can ID each wire. Absolute worst case you guess and wire it up. If you're wrong the switch simply won't have any impact or it will not turn on.

I didn't look at the new switch, but it 'may' require you to split the line in and wire to both terminals instead of spanning that for you.

That said, in the one picture there are black wires twisted together and no wire nut. Don't do that. Ever.

The neutral and ground are already "passed thru" this box to the fan. You could add a pigtail to the ground for the switch if you wanted. I always do out of an abundance of caution.

Came here for this. Half the time I don't even know that's him playing the character. I genuinely have no idea what he actually looks like in real life because I only know his characters. I believe he's the one that had to relearn his own natural accent because even HE forgot who he was outside of his roles

I forget which songs exactly, but Pearl Jam has a series of songs about a kid being seduced by an older woman and murdering her husband for her. Black is involved in the set but I forget the others.

Not sure why you need it to be universal. Those things are pretty much only good for a weird-shape nut that's partially rounded and not on very tight. (Read: they really don't have a use)

They do make ratcheting wrenches, or these "universal depth" sockets. Which honestly worked pretty well on a job site once. Carrying 2 dozen wrenches is a pain, so a socket set that can handle a 4' deep all-thread is great.

Pass-thru Socket set

It's like the inverse of the Waffle House indicator. If Cruz is still in Texas, you're going to be fine

Damn. I quit watching long before that then. I only vaguely recall Richie. And Aunt Rachel disappearing for no damn reason after awhile despite opening a restaurant.

Other than little Richie, I have no idea who he would have even been just looking at his face?

Or an email from my grandma 20 years ago...

I assumed it was at least one of those sites where they show a photoshopped picture of all the options rather than take a picture of a model 200 times. So like this design exists for Notre Dame and Florida State, etc. Kentucky just happened to generate this. Still could be given how crisply black the shirt is compared to what a real shirt would look like.

I'm confused here. Not too long ago he said he WANTED to testify and was looking forward to it. Why would he file this lawsuit? Weird.... /s

Many of them, yes. Trumples made it OK to say your racist thoughts out loud again and they're more convinced than ever that they're in the majority, making it OK to act on every impulse they get

Judging by test scores, no one from Alabama...
