Ah..... the good ole days. They did away with them some number of years ago here as well, but I remember when my father did them as a service at his garage and how he said time and time again that it was more of a hassle to have to argue with people over why he couldn't pass their cars because of cracked glass and other small issues, so he was quite happy when they did away with it.

We only have emissions, not safety, so thankfully my car wouldn't fail for stuff like that. They almost got rid of it 2 years ago, but our air quality is still shit, so they extended it for 5-10 more year before they try to get rid of it again. It's just annoying only 7 counties in the state have it still. At least the test is free once every 2 years. Not sure what it costs if you fail and have to get retested.

Sucks to have to dump money on emissions work for the car and also have to kick out for a secondary test too. And in only 7 counties as well, that just seems like robbery. If the air is that bad, it's not isolated to 7 places in particular so it should be a state wide requirement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas³ Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Who knows, it's an annoyance but I guess it's needed. It's not usually a big deal, but it's becoming one now that my car is getting older. Never thought I'd have kept it this long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas³ Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 When is it ok to be a dick to my coworker about shaking his damn leg? We have those floating floors for wiring, and the floors shake like crazy every time he shakes his leg. I've asked him to stop many times, but he still does it.

Dominic_ Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Hey, guys who play guitar, what gauge strings would you put on a 25.5" scale length guitar if I want to set it up to usually stay in D standard but be able to go a step in either direction? Do you think 12s would be too much? I have 12s on my 24.5" and that's fine but was worried the extra tension might make it too hard to play.

Sad Heart Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 (edited) Well, I got drunk, went to see ETID, survived the Richmond hardcore pit, and then got really drunk at the bar next door. I was running into people I haven't seen in 8 years. Then I came home and made a shit ton of Korean ramen . The end.

I used to use 13s but was playing in drop B back in the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I *might* go to drop B but that would be a once in a blue moon thing. Staying in D mostly, possibly going to C for when I need some Black Dahlia in my life, and maybe tuning to E or Eb if I need to. This isn't my "main" guitar.
