LEGEND The "Last Thing I Bought" Thread

[IowaRam]

I've been waiting for like 3 months for these bar stools to finally be delivered. Just in time for the Super Bowl... but they should have been here weeks ago. I think the LTL truck driver who delivered them is a meth-head or worse. The fucktard has been calling me for 3 weeks telling me that he will "be there tomorrow between these hours" and he'd never show up or call. I wanted to let him have it over the phone, but I didn't want my bar stools fucked with, so I was forced to chill. Good thing my wife was there for the delivery yesterday without me.

Anyway... they are leather with an extra layer of crocodile skin over the top and down the whole back. They are sturdy as fuck, spin around 360°, and super kush.

Cool chairs

LOLOLOLOL. My wife took that pic yesterday when they were delivered. I didn't even notice it until your eagle eyes pointed it out.

That damn chalice needs a good cleaning.

Hand forged and built by my Nephew at Iron Sands of Malibu. $800 knife and a real work of art that cuts like a scalpel. My wife bought it for me for my birthday and I just received it the other day. Of course he cut us a deal but he's selling a bunch of them to some of the finest chefs out there.

And then there's this. Cera-coated Citadel 45acp. Not the most expensive 1911s out there but the trigger pull is beautiful and it shoots great. I got it for $400 which is a real steal. Now I have to load a bunch of 45s for it.

You gotta tell me how you like using that beauty... and what you think it works best on. I've been looking at those for a while and I wonder how user friendly it would be say with things like onions and peppers, or is it really meant for meats.

I just like the thought of wielding one of those around while I'm in the kitchen. That look alone may force me to get one.

It works great on veggies. It's actually better on veggies than meats and it's great on meats. And I'll tell you, the edge on it is ridiculously sharp. I don't use a rocking motion like I do my chef knives - rather a straight chop. I'll see if I can send you a couple videos of me cutting some carrots and potatoes. I'm not the fastest with a knife but it's me slowing the knife down. It literally glides through carrots. It laughs at onions and peppers.

I'd love to see it in action. Wow... it sounds like I'm gonna have to get one now.

I'll see if I can find them. I may have posted them to my YouTube channel. I'll look later.

If you go to @PigFeathersBBQ on YouTube there are three videos of me using the knife. I'm not one of those fancy knife weilding chefs but you can see how the knife glides through stuff.

Damn it Stu. That thing is awesome.

$800 for it though. I've seen some other big blades like that on Instagram... but they aren't $800... so I bet those won't do the same job as the one you have. They look the same as far as size though.

Now I'm gonna stew over considering spending that much on an onion chopper like yours. Pun intended. Sonofabitch!

I get it. It's a functional piece of hand made art. But it's definitely pricey. I used some others that my dad bought and they were just not as balanced or functional. I've only tried a couple though.

I do a tremendous amount of chopping. That thing is probably worth every penny.

I love it but it is definitely a pill to swallow. Cheers my brother.

Picked up a couple ONN party speakers from Walmart

and every time since I was a kid , I have my own tradition , when ever I pick up a new music player / upgrade / sprakers , I have one song that I use to test the new speakers

Knock On Wood by Amii Stewart

When I was a kid , there used to be a Disco here called the Rolls Royce , and on Sunday evenings , they would open it up for us youngens

miss those days ..............lol

but anyways , I will always remember in all four corners on the dance floor hung four huge speakers , and every time they would play Knock On Wood by Amii Stewart , and the song got to those really heavy drum beats towards the second half of the song , the building would just shake with those drum beats

so now , every time I get a new music player , like the first song I play on it is Knock On Wood by Amii Stewart and put those new speakers to the test

better watch out , I got my Disco on today

We're gonna need a range report.

Check out these succulents that I planted in my giant ceramic pot. This pot has a diameter of over 3 feet just for perspective.

3 feet?

Wow, yeah the perspective is off a little. That’s really nice looking!

Thanks Brudda!

Yeah... that ceramic pot is very large. It's weighs a shit ton all by itself. I got it years ago at a nursery that was going out of business. Pots like this one are fucking expensive as shit, but I basically stole it because the nursery was desperate. I got very lucky cause I went back to that same nursery a few days later and the actual owner told me his EX-employee had been selling pots and pocketing the cash. So... I didn't get any other monsters like this one.

Those succulents do very well down here in the direct sun. Very low maintenance. They will completely fill-in that pot and look like they're busting out of the pot in about 6 months.

I guess what you’re really trying to say is; you know good pot when you see it.
