Yep, have had a few different brands that last a month and either fail completely or start doing that annoying eye twitch inducing flicker.

Exactly! It's annoying AF. I noticed it happening regularly with a brand that I've purchased at Costco. I think it's Feit? Absolute garbage. I just bought some GE ones and testing them out (standard 60W replacement type). No more "value" packs for me. I have a bunch of GE R30 type LED bulbs I've used in my kitchen (recessed ceiling type) for probably 10 years now and not a single one has gone out.

Not surveys. That is actual departure and arrival time data collected by the DOT. "On time" means the flight arrives within 15 minutes of scheduled arrival time.

I wish I could blame it on a single brand or price point but it seems to be all over the map. I think it comes down to shitty quality control across the board. I have some cheap ones that are going strong in my garage, and some expensive ones that shit the bed after a month, and vice versa.

I also made the mistake of upgrading the dash lights on my '98 Wrangler to LED. One by one those motherf***kers started going out, and I went back to regular bulbs.

For every $100 that you spend in home repairs, you will find $400 in repairs that need to be done.

I have proof (30% vol) and I know it's true. Enjoying a well earned drink, just one, after restoring jungle to a presentable garden

Lol, I honestly don't really have a horse in this race. I mean there are representatives from Chelsea on both sides though I admittedly prefer Mount over Jorginho.

Luksusowa Vodka is some good stuff for a cheaper vodka. SUPER smooth, IDK about the Cinnamon flavor though...I typically don't like flavored from the distillery booze. I tend to make my own flavored vodka and this one does real well for infusions

That's easy, the wild cinnamon flavour counters the slight roughness of the not necessarily cheap Wyborowa vodka giving it a smooth bouquet and easy drink hence the name Luksusowa,which transalates into luxurious.
If your taste takes you to a rougher more spirity one then you can choose something like Debowa at 40% ABV but not my cup of tea.

Joaquin Phoenix will star in a follow-up to his movie "Her" and it will be called "They".

In place of Scarlett Johansson will be Kaitlyn Jenner.

People that hang objects from their trailer hitch such as dolls or nut sacks have issues, very deep ones.
