OGs seem to stop by for 5 minutes and then leave again for another several months. :dunno:

"OG"?

"Owner's Guide" doesn't make sense but it's the abbreviation I've been living with for the last year.

Thanks for the welcome back! :beergrin:

I'll be around a bit, I do tend to wander off and get absorbed in other stuff when I'm not busy though. The latest is PowerWash Simulator, my daughter bought it for my birthday, so now I spend far too much time spraying virtual subway stations and fire engines. It's brilliantly boring.  :nerdy:

The latest is PowerWash Simulator,

I've never been a gamer, but I can relate to the appeal. I once got hooked for a short time watching pressure washing videos on youtube.  :lol1:
A few months ago I bought myself a small electric pressure washer, and it's my new favorite thing.  :zoinks:

That game can be very satisfying. :)

Sounds cool. I might look into a smaller one when my old one gives up or pisses me off again.
I went to a small electric chainsaw years ago. Got rid of the gas one.

OMG, I love my pressure washer, but mine is old school and I have to put gas in it and maintain another lawnmower type engine.
However it is very powerful (it can whiten concrete) and if you accidentally let it go and it swipes your skin, you will have a scar from the water hitting you at Mach speed. Ask me how I know this.
Yeah, not a toy, but a very cool tool!

I was surprised how well it performed on the driveway and sidewalk. Granted, I also used chemicals and I'm certain it took much longer to do than a powerful gas model would take, but I figure it will be fairly easy to maintain if I don't let it get so bad again in the first place.  :thumbup:

It's not so much that I am vying for favor with Mother Nature by going Fake Greenie, getting all these electric tools, but I just do not need the kind of big power available with these gas powered machines as a modern homeowner.

When gas powered machines was all I could get, OK, I still have occasional need for a chainsaw and a weed whacker and a pressure washer, but those all spent way more time idle than in use.

If I did this kind of shit for a living, yeah, I would have a big, powerful, quick one I would probably pull behind a truck, but if it takes me an extra twenty minutes to de-winter-creepify my shed, that will be fine!

Sometimes I think about Gareth and of course Amy, who have been gone for some time.  I had fun on AFF for awhile, before it seemed that amy went off the tracks.  And I think she dragged him with her, at least it seemed that way to me.  Anyway, my gut tells me he's gone for good, but, I hope he's ok.  We had some decent interactions on here and on FB. :dunno:

He didn't make much of an impression on me, but we never hung out in the same circles.
