As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.
It would seem that when you are cross posting Blackwater intel sites, worked for the FBI and are getting 7000 dollars in donations a month from sheep, that when you go on expensive beach get aways, and come home to find your fridge STINKS, that you clean out a HOT fridge that is running, go to bed, get up, find your house stinks like a worse shit hole, and then the Darwin kicks in to check the freezer, and find that has rotten food in it, as you were not advanced enough to reach that conclusion on stink alone.
This is the Hal's saga, and he can maneuver it from here. Meet you on the other side.
The refrigerator went bad while we were away on vacation! The food in it started rotting.
We have an LG brand refrigerator, and bought it back around 2015. It has served us well for 10+ years.
Well, today is Sunday and when I called for LG service, I fully expected to be told they would come on Monday. To my delight, they told me they would be here within an hour! That's one of the nicest aspects of living in the New York City/Metropolitan area; you can get pretty much whatever you want, 24/7/365.
The guy arrived, pulled the refrigerator out, took the back panel off and did some testing: Complete compressor failure.
New Compressor Parts: $635. Labor: $470. Total $1105. PLUS TAX.
They have the parts in their shop and can do the repair TODAY! I told them "do it." They asked for the cost of the parts up-front. Thank God I had some cash in the house to pay it.
The guy had to leave to go on other service calls, but says he will be back by either 6:00-6:30, or, at worst case, by about 8:00 tonight. So (in theory) this will all be fixed tonight.
The big loss: All the food in the refrigerator and freezer (which stunk terribly) had to get thrown out. ARRRRRRGGGGGH!
Life goes on.
Of course this is another plea to his sucker audience for money in clever Hal style, but in reading this sob story, in the costs, I thought, "YOU CAN GET A NEW FRIDGE FOR WHAT THIS IS COSTING!"
Hence I ventured to Home Depot and voila, Lame Cherry right again.
So Hal is spending 1200 bucks on an old fridge that is going to keep breaking when he could get a new fridge which would last him beyond his life cycle for less money. This is beyond retarded.
At the moment, I am washing retarded kid shoes from JYG's junk yard, as the government subsidies buys these kids designer shoes every 3 months it seems. JYG will not wear the things, but I wash the retard off after leaving them sun and rain exposure kill for a few months and I wear them. The pair I have on is from the tard brothers as is the pair I wear to town, they are Nike. I can not afford chit tennis shoes, never mind designer shoes..........like I am washing them in a JYG washing machine which works half assed that I leave sit outside for heavy loads and tard shoes like this. Doing the second rewind on it, as the washing machine is about done with it's life cycle.
I got a GMC pick up to fix the door on as they droop, get it going so it does not chug in starting out when cold, and the oil change coming up. Other pick up has to go in and get a block heater for winter, and serviced and checked again as I have more warning lights than the Enterprise on Star Trek. That was after 600 bucks for the cheap tires for this Ford, when the tire guy looking at them said, "Hey that tire is leaking air". Was just thankful I was not on the road as these aluminum rims are a bitch when they are flat as you have to use a hammer on the rubber tire to beat it off.......hit the aluminum and you bend that.
I honestly would not sell my soul as these 3 million dollar Loomers do or post how stupid I was like the Hal, but in this world it would be nice to have money coming out of the ass. As JYG said last year, "I would like nice stuff too instead of this junk".
Look I tried fixing an old washing machine we bought 3 years ago. Forget the cheap part name as I wrote about it, like actuator or something, but 3 loads later, the fricking seal went out and I had water on the floor. I learned a long time ago not to buy cheap shit and this lesson on fixing things, educated me that old shit when it has reached it's end, it is going to keep breaking. Granted there is not allot of parts on a fridge, condenser and motor are that black thing in back in one unit, but allot of these appliances now have wifi, have computer boards and as Rick's friend Dean said, "The circuit board for a furnace costs more than the furnace to replace......so you junk the furnace".
If you are fortunate and have 20 year old stuff. Thank God for that as it probably will last another 20 years. I was told by the appliance gal that most things die now in 5 years. The junk yard if overflowing with appliances as proof.
I digress in this education for you, but it is mostly as my mind is not wrapping around how Darwin the Hal is. He though is proof of his saying, "In New York you pretty much can get whatever you want". The first thing is suckered and taken advantage of. The second is Hal repeating that to people who for some reason act like an ATM for him.
As the final thoughts on this, perhaps as the Hal's donors can shit money, I'm still looking for the 100,000 dollar donations as people have lots of money to spend stupidly..........and the final thought in this is what I was informed this past week, in these Chinese parts which they are putting into repair things, do not last sometimes a few weeks. But then the Hal has lots of money and likes sob stories as apparently none of his sheep ever do a search and the math to know the costs.
Nuff Said
