Woah I just realized I signed up to RS 20 years ago last week. It just seemed like yesterday I joined because I was looking for rims for my 02 Civic.

Any recommendations for a cheap tire shop that does decent work? Friend is needing to swap onto Summers from Winters on the same set of wheels.
The shop I used before charged $25/30 per corner but now wants $50!
Costco used to only charge $20 but they don’t do tires not purchased from them anymore I believe

any recommendation for phone cracked screen repair
my phone glass shattered...
I see people selling service for $40~60 off FB Marketplace, but I'm not sure if they are legit pros or some kid just following YouTube instructions...

i found ECC cell repair in crystal mall to be pretty good. i like the younger guy that runs the place and does repairs...no bitchy attitude and actually knows what he's doing like some of the other places there.
i think they recently moved from 1 storefront to another in the mall.

Just got back from watching John Wick 4.
Yeah................... I'm thinking it was intense.
One word, "Overkill."
If you went in expecting John Wick things, yeah, it had that and lots of it.

John Wick — a kill on average every 1 minute and 18 seconds (across its 101-minute runtime).
John Wick: Chapter 2 — a kill on average every 57 seconds (across 122 minutes).
John Wick: Chapter 3 — Parabellum - a kill on average every 1 minute and 23 seconds (across 130 minutes).
Chapter 4 - ?

Yeah................... I'm thinking 10 kills a minute.
Some breaks here and there. The end. Just one.
I rolled my eyes to the point they seemed like they were stuck.
The fighting scenes were well done. Seamless.

Have anyone of you guys have stink bugs at home? Lately I've been getting a few a night, and have had to zap them dead when I see them. I have no clue how they even get in because door is sealed shut and windows never opened.

Garden shed, storage chests, etc. They fly, so they get in when you have the door open for a split second. They can get into really tight spaces. Between plastic panels I had stored in the backyard. Although they look rather large, their bodies are relatively flat. Vile creatures, they are.
Never had issues with them until last year. Now they're part of our environment. Some asshole brought them over from somewhere, I bet. They kind of remind me of replicators from Stargate SG-1.

I didn't start seeing stinkbugs until I moved here.. They come every spring (have seen a few already) and they love to try laying eggs in our screen door, and then lay on the balcony to die. I guess the eggs stick to them really easily.
How do I know they're stinkbug eggs? One year we let them hatch, and a bunch of cute little tiny stinkbugs came out 
Also they don't really stink at all.. Smells kind of like apple pie actually.

If you have a chimney they're likely in there, supposedly that's a favourite location for them
Had our heating virtually off when we left in October but came back to a house with several stink bugs hibernating and a couple would appear every couple weeks since
