Anyone else use windshield wiper fluid and high speed wipers to defrost instead of getting out and handling it properly with a scraper. Or being patient and sitting until it’s clear? And I’m off, driving down the road with head crouched to certain spot on windshield where i can see until finally defrosted.
Alzheimer's can EAD. 
If I ever get it, I honestly want one of you to come shoot my face the second I start to forget names and places.

I dont care about peoples defrost habits, but I do know we have really jumped the shark with our headlight brightness. Some of these newer cars- there isnt much difference between normal and high-beams. Damn near blinding and I've had enough.
I’m with Ron, I hate wearing any jewelry and especially watches. Why do I need a clock on my wrist? August, why do you think everyone should wear jewelry that tells you what time it is? I’ve never had a problem figuring out the time. Are you all consistently late?
-cup o water if I forget to use the auto start.
-no to smart watch. Not my jam.
-Yes to mechanical watch. Wearing a Ulysses Nardin maxi marine chronometer today. Old fashioned, but I would rather use ancient tech crafted in Switzerland than a mini cpu made by 8 year olds in a Chinese factory.

70mil bitcoin heist.

Check your bitcoin vault, krazy.
I've never liked wearing a watch until I got an Apple watch last year. I use it as a fitness tracker (when I'm actually exercising), dictating text messages, speaker phone sometimes, quicker access to check temperature than pulling out my phone, and golf gps. I randomly use it for other stuff, but not much.
I definitely understand why people wouldn't want one, but it works for me, and I've gotten a lot more use out of it than I thought I would.
I don't think I'd ever buy a nonsmart watch. Those seem extraordinarily pointless.

If you’re not driving down the road with only a fist sized circle of visibility throgh the frost on your windshield then are you even living?
I dont know **** about investing, aside from me putting as much as I can into my somewhat stable state retirement, but a few weeks ago I was drinking and listening to some podcast nerd talk about how he bought an entire house and some other stuff with a bitcoin transaction to avoid paying taxes on liquidating it and I realized this was all a scam that is somehow legal (for now).
I mean this heyday window is going to close up as soon as the influential people who arent in on it get angry and start regulating it until it crashes. Also i'm just jealous bc i'm not a random IT guy that is a millionaire at 25 bc of a $7 investment he made 5 years ago.
I will buy it when they sell it on Amazon.

I heard yesterday about a local IT guy quitting his job - his father said he was 'messing with cryptocurrency' to make money. Yeah, seems sustainable... /gyeroface
Hard not to be intrigued, though.
More on the recent Bitcoin rise

I retired YEARS ago, thanks to day trading. Moved into house flipping, but that was purely as a hobby. And venture capital is really just a social endeavor.
There's some sort of life hack that involved defrosting your windshield easily in seconds but I've completely forgotten what it was since I've bought a house with a garage, which is actually one of my favorite parts about home ownership. /smug
I've never felt more out of touch then with this bitcoin stuff, talking about "mining" for it and having it all on your hard drive and some such, might as well be talking about wormholes.

El Pres lays it out pretty perfectly, imo. Dude cracks my **** up.
Bitcoin is going to be nothing more than the next bubble that will negatively impact the right percentage of middle class people, thus making it the worst national tragedy since 9/11 x10. It will undoubtedly be "the system's" fault and have nothing at all to do with greedy/stupid people thinking they can quadruple their 401k in an afternoon
I am not a violent person but I was tempted to get out of my car at a stop sign and tell the toucher behind me to turn off his lights. Then I realized I may get shot so I just went home
I wear an $87 Nautica stainless steel watch with blue face purchased in 1999.
I'm also using the same ink pen acquired as a gift in 1999.

In 2010 I read about Bitcoin and how you could set your computer up to mine it. At the time you could maybe go through all the trouble of setting up your computer to do it and get Bitcoins that might be valued at a dollar or two one day. And it didn't seem like I had the horsepower to generate 100s or 1000s of these things that I'd need to make any decent money. I think at the time they were like 8 cents. I read about how to do it and my eyes glazed over. Refreshed Cat Paw and moved on.
I would want to punch myself in the face for it but (a) I still don't understand mining, so I'd have f*cked it up, and (b) I'd have sold LONG LONG ago on the upswing and really be kicking my self in the balls cashing out for 10 grand when what I'd have now could be worth 50 million.

Chief becoming a bitcoin Multimillionaire, clowning Gyero And Pti about his wealth, and then losing it all in an afternoon crash would be the most Kentucky football thing ever.
I still have a flatscreen above my fireplace and turn on half of the lights in my house manually, think my hick *** is messing with bitcoin? Hell no, I would rather bury jars of pennies in my back yard.
My 4 year old daughter is making other 4 year old kids rich by watching stupid YouTube videos of them playing with their toys in the same way she plays with her toys minutes later. I know that kid’s parents are investing her YouTube monies in some online fake bs currency that she will later be worth hundreds of millions in and my kid will have to go into soul crushing debt to get a 4 year degree.
So, how do I post stuff on YouTube and where do I buy bitcoin?

Defrost hack is fill a spray bottle with half water half rubbing alcohol, spray on the ice, watch it melt.
I adopted that last winter, used it exactly once. Kept the bottle in the back of my car for the past year.
Went to use the spray bottle last week for the first time this winter and the sprayer popped off. So much for that. But it worked that one time.

I think it works best if you just take a gallon of water and throw it onto your icy windshield. Should do the trick immediately.
I think an ETF or two is launching so that could be a good way to get a piece. Assuming the ETF starts at a reasonable price.
At some point the govt is going to get involved and get their cut. Looks like it is also great for money laundering for now also.
I guess you don't remember me telling Krazy to be careful because the bottom could fall out when it was in the $800 range.
In other words I don't have any.
My buddy has a computer hardware review business, had ample hardware sitting idle in his office and thought about mining back in the day but didn’t. He must be kicking himself. Then again, he’s in Hawaii right now and he Chartered to a Bobcats game with Cal earlier this year. So maybe not.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to get to the root of a garbage disposal spec change.

bitcoin more like shitcoin
I like to buy a single Diet Dr. Pepper at a gas station and then watch the clerk react when I pay for it with a Bitcoin and she has to give me $17,000.00+ cash in change, lol.
