we are buying a new bed. Thinking about a California King or a Wyoming King size bed.

so apparently there is an Alaska King and it’s called a “family” bed but i think it’s an “orgy” bed.
When @fly and @APRIL visit us, they are sleeping right between CEO and I in the Alaska King....

Based on the length of the beds in your image, you'd be better suited for a crib.

orgy bed... yaup, that's four adult sized people

googoo gaga bitch.

don’t be bringing all of them cat hairs to our orgy bed when you sleep over

I could use a Wyoming King, but where the hell would you find sheets?

I did it accidentally I guess. Likely used dimensions, because I don’t remember the term “Wyoming” King. 84” x 84” rang a bell.

Sears. Are they still a thing?

I can parlay a deal between the two of you. She says leave the glitter at home.

No. Bring the glitter.

Your first client and you blew it, Nukes.
Maybe put out a questionnaire before negotiating next time.

I wasn't expecting those two to go for any of my contractual suggestions anyways.

I hate how cheap and shoddy swamp cooler parts are.

Like, I get it: making an electric motor work in a moist environment is hard, but if it's $150 to make a 1HP 115VAC motor that lasts 3 years, why isn't there one on the market that costs $200 and lasts 10 years?

They're heavy as fuck to haul up on the roof, and fiddly to get into place and aligned right, and it seems like every year I'm replacing some other piece of that hunk of shit.

Cheap shit parts in a shit area to live.

Pathetic.

 

[HipHugHer]

Is there not a way to position the motor in the natural dry environment and connect its spinny part to the man-made humid, wet environment?

Like not literally out in the open. Still sheltered from the 4 rain showers you get there each year, but not contained within the humid swamp cooler apparatus itself?

Seems it'd be easier and cheaper to replace a seal or two than a whole motor.

Can't upgrade it yourself?
