That's the real problem. I can't get seals for my tiller that last more than a weekend with brand new fuel.

They do. I haven't had an ethanol related issue in 15 years and I run it in everything from cars, to boats, to lawn equipment.

Not "They do", more like They Might, depending on the brand and country of origin.
Buying Alky Free fuel is cheap insurance compared to Oh no, service parts are not available for this tool!
Bought $250.00 China-made as I could not afford the $1,200.00+ Honda equivalent.
And here is a secondary rant, it seems I cannot buy an American Made version at all!

Nascar looking like amateur hour at Daytona. Wrecking everyone is just the norm at so many places.

Fixed it for me.  20 questions then they end with; I probably need to come see it. 

Normally I would ask when but at that point I didn't want them coming over.

Yes and people don't understand just how much that wears on you. I understand, and wouldn't wish it on anyone.

Have you taken out food triggers yet?

Sinus. To truly be free from it, I'll have to move to a different part of the country.  Not a sinus infection.  I know them well.

I get a simple haircut- just a buzz cut with clippers.  Tried four separate haircut places at 12:30 today and all were booked for the rest of the day.  Ok, guess the wife will do it and we'll save the 20 bucks.

It's been a really long time since I changed the filter in the fridge.  When I finally got the idea to do it and also the model of filter I need in my head at the same time the process of removing the ancient filter managed to break the filter housing.   So I got to take the fridge apart last night and now I'm waiting on a $70 part to arrive.

I bought a $30 pair of clippers 8 years ago and never looked back.

My wife has been cutting mine for 35 years. It's not only cheaper, it's a lot more convenient.

I love going to the barber shop. I love getting the hot shave on my neck, I love the smell of talc and everything else... But I'm now in the opposite end of you. I had some tremendous hockey flow going until about a month ago when I had it cut for an interview. Not doing that anymore. Letting it grow, will get it trimmed every 6 months or so for the split ends, but I'm going for full on Hanson Brothers. 

EDIT: These Hanson brothers. Not the mmmbop ones.

This. Well. The last 3 years for me. Cheap set of Wahl clippers and having a haircut so simple that a well trained monkey could do it means my wife now cuts my hair. She also cuts our sons hair. We get a hair cut per month so we're saving at least $50/month. Dave Ramsey is so proud of me.

Another run in with another self-important shiny happy person who, based on their inability to comprehend how a line works, failed to graduate kindergarten.

Ah, you too taken the Ashford-Dunwoody exit on 285 in the morning! Line of cars a mile line on the right side but here comes some upper middle-manager in a 80k SUV with a "Salt Life" sticker and a Gwinnett tag flying up the right side to get in at the last second. Gotta make that 8:30 status meeting but that slog from John's Creek was killer this morning...

I once asked wife to trim my collar line (no attachment on the trimmer) and she started running up the back of my head.  This was just before heading out on a business trip - in my world, it's worth the $20.

I did an ok job cutting my hair when I needed to but I'm much happier going to my barber every few weeks for most of the reasons MTN lists, plus a chance to listen to a group of grumpy old men bitch about the world. If only they could get into office alm the world's problems would be solved.
