Just noticed Autowerkes is listed as permanently closed on Google Maps - is this true? Was going to recommend someone to go there for PPF work.

Who tf calls them potato barrels?!?! Lol like legit couldn’t keep watching after that lol

Amuricans must think we're retarded for calling them Tater Tots...............

just saiyan


I mean they are barrel shaped and made out of potatoes.


You say tomatoes, I say tomatos, I say potatoes, you say potatos................ let's call the whole thing off.

Went down the tater tot rabit hole and to get around the trade marked name people call them “tater treats” “tater puffs” or just simply taters lol

Potato barrels still sounds fucking stupid lol..

I think what made it sound so weird is that we occasionally have watched a few other YouTubers who do Disney parks and other theme parks in Cali and Florida quite a bit over the past 2-3 years and I’ve never once heard any of them refer to them as potato barrels so I figured it was just some dumb shit the guy himself came up with lol

With that said, potato barrels aren’t very high up on my list of must tries there. More of a corn dog man myself

Trying to make fun of people for whatever name they choose to call a processed fried potato product is pretty cringey in and of itself.

If they're closed, try Terence at Glossworks. He worked with Ken before and feed each other jobs if their booked themselves.

Got an Impark ticket a few yrs ago. Didn't pay it and it went to collections.

Chances of me getting towed if I pay for parking?

If you change your plate, you won't get towed.

I think it's $20?

^Good luck!


Anyone use the stock weather widget on their Samsung phone? WTF is up with the giant ad when you tap the widget to try to see the 10 day forecast?! The ad is so big that it takes up 90% of my screen and scrolls with you so you're stuck only viewing a small sliver of weather info. The other tabs like hourly, the ads are stuck to the page so you can just scroll past, but 10 day is just WTF.

Thoughts and prayers go out to you. Not that I’m religious or anything.

Was going to say god bless, but this is not the time.

Anyone buy wheels from USA within the last few years?

I guess it's luck of the draw how hard they are gonna hit you with taxes, duty's, and broker fees right?
Duty estimate calculator says a number, but I know those are never accurate.

Other option is ship to point Roberts, but then I gotta go down with someone that has a truck, and again, might get hit crossing back
