When we finally went to tackle it a few months ago, we found that the red texture paint could just be peeled off sometimes in sheets, sometimes little pieces. Under that was a nice black coat.

Finally this weekend we took the door off and put stripper on, took two rounds of that as well as two for each of the edges of the door the paint was also on. Then clean, sand, clean. Finally ready to prime. Now it's 4pm and I need 24 hours before recoating and there's no front door on the house.

I'd like to do 2 coats of primer and at least 2 coats of paint, but at that rate it's gonna take forever.
Probably used oil based paint over latex or mixed the 2. Also, 2 coats of primer is absolutely worthless unless maybe it’s the same color as the paint and you’re trying to do 1 less coats of paint.

    When you inadvertently spend money but it turns out to be for the best.

    Ex 1: My company signed us all up for an opt-out 401k back in June. I never had signed up for it myself, so I'm glad they did it (they sent out emails detailing the move, but the subject was something about "important update to the retirement plan" and I wasn't in the retirement plan so I just never read it. If I'd read it, I probably would've opted out). But at the same time, I miss that money now. I know it's for the better though.

    Ex 2: Back in October I got a huge paycheck, worked a ton of OT. I paid my student loan bill on time and figured that since I had a ton of extra money I'd pay November's payment, too! Except the bank just counted it as an "extra payment" so now I owe November's too. Again, it's for the better, as it was a straight up hit to the principal with no interest, but I wish it had counted for November as I'd intended.

    Fuck.

    A lot of restaurants use the Hidden Valley powder to make their "house" ranch (the other ingredients are just buttermilk and mayo.) All the ones I worked in did.

    You are avoiding some preservatives though, I guess... though they're probably in the mayo so maybe not.

    There's a chain the southeast that's pretty good, for a chain. Taco Mac. It's more of an American sports bar atmosphere than it sounds. They make the best fuggin ranch. It's thick and garlicky (or something) AF.

    We would always make a small batch for ourselves at my last restaurant. Same Hidden Valley spice pack, but we cut the buttermilk a bit and added sour cream (this made it thicker), then added some garlic that we roasted in the store (it was a pizza topping.) So dope.

    As soon as I saw the keg ranch last night, I thought of ants.

    Granted, I do like a good ranch from time to time. But, I like almost every dressing out there.

    Re: What (besides politics) irritates you?

    Some website posted a meme about "the christmas tree being up already" it was harmless. One of the first comments I saw was a woman saying "Do what makes you happy! Just because you have a tree up doesn’t mean you won’t celebrate Thanksgiving ���� we celebrate Thanksgiving every year with family and our trees! Mind your business and do what’s best for you." And she posted a picture of her tree.

    So, "mind your business" and then "here's all of my business for entire the public to see and mind"

    That's not irritating - especially if it was the BNL version.

    Irritating when it's only Nov 8th.
    Christmas music starts the Friday after Thanksgiving. Not before.

    I just feel like christmas is significantly less special when we try to celebrate it for 2+ months.

    Thanksgiving is a better holiday anyway. Better food, football, parade and sitting on my ass all day beats running around to family members houses for 2 days.
