When needing to buy some new tires this past week, the obvious choice for what I was looking for were michelins but I was hesitant to get them because of their mascot.

I like nike, but wait a minute. It's beyond time to go back to white/light uniforms at home, colored/dark on the road.

Update: The Thunder will be switching to white uniforms in the second half, per @joe_mussatto

The orange/red matchup wasn’t supposed to happen https://t.co/01hkmHk3HW

Tempty was very good.  What a great show.

I was dying when that single chick with the curly hair was yelling at the older guy (tom?).  She was like "WE'RE HUMAN BEINGS.  ARE WE A rough ridin' JOKE TO YOU?  DO YOU NOT TAKE US SERIOUSLY?"  And it's like, lady...you're on a show to try to get me to cheat on my girlfriend, and you're literally wearing a corsette, fishnets, and devil horns.

“Tom turns to me, gets really mad at me, as if I have horns coming out of my head.”

I’ve had like 5 inks and never got any flack from them.

  I'll give it a shot as it's the only truly great thing I could use for this and beyond.  Worst case, I get my current Ink card converted to the no-fee type and I'll still have at least one more shot for a 5/24 Chase even if they count the attempt as 1/24.

I'll probably be getting a big check to be paying for all these things first, so I could open up a Chase bank account (maybe even a biz one!) with it first for however that might help.

What are the non-Chase version of awesome transferable UR's that would be good to get into if I needed to?  Citi T-Y points look useless to me.

I honestly don't know. Can you even get another Ink version if you have one? I know they cracked down on different personal UR cards where you can only hold one at a time or something. maybe that's just the Sapphire versions? 75k is a great deal though. I should probably get it.

I don't know, was hoping this was something you'd easily recall reading the answer to on one of the blogs.

You're right about the Sapphire personals; it's probably in this thread 3 years ago where I timed out canceling my CSP and going a month with nothing before getting a CSR.

It wouldn't necessarily be a problem for me to cancel my existing Ink, but I didn't want to do that and then be unable to get a new one of that type with the 5x on some biz-related stuff and 2x fuel.  If it's thought messing with the Inks is flying too close to the sun, I'd just have Chase convert my existing one to the no-fee version with those same categories and look for non-biz cards to get for these purchases.

One option for the $8K-ish purchase from Lowe's is to get a 5% discount on that purchase by getting and using a Lowe's credit card, but I feel we can do a lot better than that.

75K bonuses out for some Ink cards.  I've got the old school one that has a $95 annual fee but 5x on internet/cable/gas and 2x on gas and I've kept it for those categories and also because I didn't want to give up that biz card after having succeeded at getting it with all the sole proprietorship stuff.

I see there's now Ink Business Cash that has those same categories, no annual fee, and the 75K bonus right now.

https://creditcards.chase.com/business-credit-cards/ink/cash?iCELL=61GF

Should I apply for that while still retaining my existing Ink, or cancel the existing one first?  And either way, is Chase being harder on granting biz cards these days or should I still be good following the basic simple process?

Worst-case scenario, I'm sure I could get them to convert what I have now into that Ink Business Cash with no annual fee, but I want to grab the 75K bonus too if possible.

Still seeking out any answers on this soon, as I'll be making a few separate big purchases.  At least one would knock out this $7500 spend in one shot.  If I could get this new biz card with no annual fee, cancel my existing one, and get 75K points in one shot, that would be fantastic.

Then I'd be looking for any others with great bonuses for $5K+, maybe even $10K+ in spend.

I've got to update my spreadsheet, but I'm at either 2 or 3 in the past 24.

Separate from the big spends, if I'm getting relocated to an IHG during renovations, I'll also want to get the higher-reward IHG card for that either on top of or to cancel and replace my existing lower-reward IHG card.

The guy dating the athlete-rough rider is playing things just right.

I thought the very aggressive and very blonde girl was ugly in episode 1, but she looked better in episode 2.  It could just be her infectious hooking up and grinding with/on anyone that comes within 3 feet of her that's putting her in a better light.

It's time to shift focus. This team is at 2TRAIGHT looking to make it ST3AIGHT on Saturday against a WV squad that I can assure you wants no piece of these cats

You’re gunning for 22 overall, 16 in bramlage, and 28 at “home.”

The new record for consecutive bramlage L’s is set at 7. Considering only one team (last year’s) had ever had lost even 5 in a row, this one could stand 4 eva.

Dax, if your point is that the capitol riot was an incredibly poorly thought out action by loser magas that never had any chance of ultimately ending in something other than a big L, I agree with you.

In the ProgFascist mind it is equal to 9-11 and the thousands of lives lost and ultimately the millions of lives taken, millions of people displaced and the trillions upon trillions of dollars in cost.

So that is  also, in many many ways.

Members of this blog are enabling that hilarity every day.

I support you in whipping that ProgFascist's ass.

I can't wait to simply piss and wash hands, probably masked still, in a bar bathroom.

Well, "can't wait" is a figure of speech.  Of course I can keep waiting.

This team's still accomplished a lot this season.

you're being too kind; they accomplished nothing.

They destroyed The Streak with both an unprecedented loss to Hays and a record 7-loss and counting streak. Plus setting the record for consecutive overall L’s within a single season.

Wow, I didn't realize they were already doing this thing in person.  Once chip'd, we gotta grift it in 2022.

In.

Obviously the rubber cod piece to prevent accidental tazing will be big.

With a year to plan, surely we can come up with a grift that would have us wearing full Batman movie costumes.
