That's happened twice on this forum this month. Weird.

Yep, unless you are @NTP66 evidently.

It's not that hard to replace if you're careful and handy. Not that expensive if you just want to pay somebody else to do it, either.

We just ordered a new freezer in mid June and it was just delivered on Monday. Thing is comically large, it's a miracle it fit in our basement.

Splurged for all the bells and whistles this time. Not gonna make the cheap freezer mistake again.

I have been going back and forth on a big freezer for our basement, as the freezer in our side-by-side is 100% full, all the time.

This is the one we just got. I love it so far.

That's way overkill for what I'd need. I'd definitely want a frost free unit, though.

I hear ya. We had to throw out about 400 dollars worth of meat this year due to our other freezer shtting the bed.

They make smaller sizes in that model.

My in-laws have a freezer like that in the basement. You'd be amazed how quickly you can still fill it up.

I want one so I can store my wife's stupid Hello Fresh nonsense in it.

They are useful if you order partial cows, too.

That make me laugh more than it should.

Utterly stupid GIF to be honest.

what do you call a cow with no legs?

Some great dad energy in here right now.

I can already tell where it's going.

We bought our house in November 2020. It is now July 2021. I had to stop a guy from Trugreen from thatching and overseeding the yard about 5 minutes ago. Why you ask? Because I didn't hire anyone from trugreen to thatch and overseed. The seller, who moved like 3 blocks away hired someone to thatch and overseed. This is the second time this summer that I had to stop someone mid-job from working because the seller can't get his address right. A few months ago I was alarmed by the sound of a leaf blower only to open up the window of my office only to see a guy standing on the roof roughly 6 feet from me, cleaning the roof. He was of course cleaning the wrong roof. I've also received pairs of fancy sweatpants and a few days ago something from some other internet sales place that should have been sent to the other house. Come on man.
