I do think it's a bit picky. If you have some leather conditioner/cleaner, I wonder if giving the tag a thorough rub down would both ease some of the wrinkles and clear the dye stain?

Your wife and sisters grew up in an Ikea play area!? That’s amazing. Do they have an innate sense for decorating small spaces?

I gave up on Espresso machines as I never get more than two years out of electric ones. I now use Moka pots which last forever at long as you don't put them in the dishwasher.

40 years ago was the 80s. Not the 60s. Fuck.

>--and

It's a double negative, 100 and -0

The mirror of time reflects on us all my friend!

I wish you would step back from that sledge, my friend!

Dude just got sleighn

Was the picture taken in a mirror?

Where do you live that it gets down to negative 100F and only up to 0F? That sucks.

I recommend this one you can find off amazon. Its well built with steel and only a small amount of plastic on the front panel and feet. You can set the temperature between 5C-28C (41F-82F) and it has 3 power settings and an ECO mode. setting 1 is 700W, 2 is 900W, and 3 is 1500W. When Eco mode is turned on it will run at the highest power that you have set until it reaches the set temp and then switches to a lower power to maintain the heat as needed.

Its silent except for a click when changing power settings which I like and doesnt dry out the air the same way ceramic heaters can. Its a bit heavy at 20 something pounds but the wheels make it easy to move around. It can take a while for it to heat up but it also takes longer to cool off which can be helpful if the power goes out or if you want to turn it off before going to bed. I also feel safer since its harder to start a fire with one of these.

Plastic is both terrible and excellent at the same time!

I'm in the US, but my parents still have a nearly identical sled to those from my childhood. It's at least 35 years old and still gets used by the grandchildren.

This looks like they aged the denim with the patch sewn on, some brands do some brands sew it on after, this is perfectly normal.

Oh, is THAT what that song was about!?

Those who do must be quite persistent.

The one on the left is garbage it's missing the handle. Time to replace!! /S

Seriously they look brand new that's crazy!

They will outlive us all!

These are Peter Gabriels favourite winter past-time!

Well designed plastic items can last a long time. My plastic garbage bin sits outside all year long--100F to 0F--and it's fine after 24 years.

I'm sure plastic things that break are either poorly designed for their purpose, or designed to some minimum spec that is expected by the designer to break after so much time or use.

They were sold as sledges to get around a toy sled tax, but most people didn't use them as hammers.

My parents had one and it would wake me up from across the house, wasn’t a very large house but I’m a heavy sleeper 😂

Right, but what could you even hammer with those?
