Gah.
Work sucks, guys. Enjoy the shit out of having no responsibilities while you can


Seconded. I have a job that requires me to repair instruments by the hundreds. It's so monotonous that all I do during the work day is imagine what it would be like if the edgy guy at work were to snap and come in with a shotgun shooting up the place, and how I would be a hero by somehow disarming him and saving the day (of course in reality I'd get instakilled/teabagged, but it's a daydream). That, balanced with University and other commitments, makes for a lot of shitty responsibility and time-management, and I feel like it's only minimal in comparison to people with families and actual full-time jobs.

I remember those carefree days :<

So I'm learning right now how to install LED lights. Specifically in cars. I'm planning on getting a 30-40 watt soldering iron and some 60/40 "44" rosin core solder since that seems to be the actual chemistry of the process. Not exactly sure what to install yet, but I just want to be prepared for in the near future when I decide to get creative.

Anyone got tips or advice? Mainly on what I should install? I drive a Sterling Grey 2012 Ford Focus SE. Here's some pictures of the interior and exterior.

I'm just gonna put this here since it got pushed back from other topics.

Forget the LED lights, they're illegal on the exterior in most places anyway. Get a Mustang or some classic Ford muscle to car to fix up and work on instead. It'll bring much more satisfaction when its done.

I'm not really in place to be trading up cars. And I wasn't planning to do much on the exterior as much as I was on the interior.

I was planning on getting blue/cyan floor lighting (for the front and the back) and get some lighting behind the gauges on the dash. The only thing I wanted to do on the exterior was install some Xenon headlights.

As far as i know there isnt much soldering involved in installing neon lights, i think its mostly wiring. Some come with harnesses to make it easier. Not sure how it all works though as wiring is my worst enemy when it comes to cars. I'd imagine they just wire into the ignition so they turn on when you start the car, maybe with a switch to toggle them on/off somewhere in the circuit.

How the hell can you afford a brand new car? The insurance must be a nightmare.

I think I'm going to die soon.

I made brownie batter and dipped a hotdog bun into it and ate it.

Maybe that was on his "Things to do before I die" list.

Curiosity. The other day this chick showed me some bubble gum flavored cashews. I presumed it would taste like shit, So I tasted it. It did.

Pfft, I had bacon flavored jelly beans, and I'm pretty damn sure that the prime ingredient in that crime against nature was ammonia. It tasted like chemicals to the point where I had to spit it out.

Yes, but jelly beans are meant to have lots of different flavors. Cashews aren't. Cashews are cashews.

My friend brought over chocolate with little bits of bacon in it once. It was okay.
