Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Ryobi, but I hate them after they couldn’t fix my under warranty riding mower for four months.

I also have Ryobi gardening equipment. My tools are a combination of B&D and Makita.

20+ windows. They aren’t nice that’s why we’re replacing them. Yes we still have a pool

‘but the energy savings you will achieve year over year from better insulation in summer and winter makes it worth it’
