Very random question, but does anyone love their outdoor/patio chair enough to recommend? I just want something nice to sit and read in.

Polywood stuff is very nice but not cheap.

Ohhh that's exactly what I want. Thanks!

[MickeyDavis]

Make sure you keep it covered.

[MikeIsGood]

Very similar to / also not cheap like Polywood, we have Highwood and highly recommend. We cover them in winter, but they're outside year-round. Extremely durable (and extremely heavy). Three years strong so far.

We bought a cheap wicker set like these. They're durable and fairly comfortable. But the best thing is the removable cushions with washable covers. We pull in the cushions when it's the elements require it, and it's easy to wash the covers and pillows.

You could find something more comfortable or better looking, for sure. But just make sure you have removable and washable cushions and covers.

Hoping this is a good fight. Hoping Du Plessis takes it but I don't think he will

Boring as hell. All 5 rounds, bell rings, immediate takedown, 5 minutes on the mat. Crowd not happy.

Don't mind takedowns but atleast try to end the fight there.

I strongly second this. Yeah, it's expensive, but it's indestructible and really ****ing comfortable. We've had our set for 15 years and it sits outside all winter and looks brand new.

Can't recommend it enough.

Edit: I may be talking about a different product. This is the stuff I'm talking about:

Further edit: Holy hell the prices have gone up. I think we paid about $1200 for 2 gliders, the love seat glider and 2 tables. I know it's 15 years, but that would be roughly $4k now.

Depending what he buys, some stuff you definitely need to cover, you don't want it soaking in the rain and/or snow. Other stuff it doesn't matter.

Yeah, I removed that post. I think I'm talking about a different product. Mine has never been inside and looks brand new. All stainless hardware and no sun fading whatsoever. It's fairly incredible. I really didn't believe the guy that sold it to us (that it wouldn't fade at all). I knew the hardware was fine.

The Milwaukee area sure doesn't need this heavy rain

Pro wrestling event. It was planned that MMA fighter Raj Jackson was supposed to go into the ring and go after wrestler. What was not planned was that Raj actually unloaded on him with blows to the head. Brutal to watch. Looks like the wrestler will be ok.

Lock him up. People that unload on someone who is obviously unconscious don't belong in a civilized society.

Wrestlers getting hurt during matches has happened a lot, sometimes seriously. Usually when a move isn't executed correctly. This goes way beyond that.

Tommy Fleetwood, most career earnings without a PGA win. Just this year he has 7 top 10 finishes. But still no wins.

Leads by 2 with 6 to play in the PGA championship.

Shameless plug - my sister owns/runs a store called "Look for Less" off Capital Drive in Brookfield. Everything in her store is a Target/Amazon product that's discounted 70-80% off. Everything's brand new and works and runs perfectly. Like 50% of my condo is furnished by her. Just got new patio furniture from her this week. They have literally everything and anything you could imagine.

Check them out on Facebook (both the Look for Less and Look for Less Auctions pages). You'll save a ton of money.

Video auto-play of any kind, on any website, is literally the worst feature in the world. Nothing like sitting in a meeting checking scores ESPN only to have the damn highlight reel start playing and broadcast to the whole meeting...

Parents are finishing their basement in the next few weeks. will send them her way.

Anyone have a smart scale they like or hate? I know they’re not great for the biometric stuff, which is fine, but I need to start tracking my weight better so I figured one of these would be good (and I like gadgets). Thanks!
