I hope you feel better now. If not, I heard that Canada has a fine mental health system, as long as you can wait two years.

I'm no fortune teller but this push back will go about as well as following papa t's recommendations for doing your own electrical work.

We haven't even started on,
how do I wash my roof?
How do I clean my dusty dash?
How do I clean lug nuts?
Best way to wax antenna
should I trade in my trusty 72 pinto for a superduty?
What kind of def to use? (Teddy already answered that one).
how to mount a stripper pole in the bed
Best washer fluid to use
Best flavor urinal cake
And will this scratch buff out?
Why is my spare different?
Do I really need synthetic oil?
How to fight a bear.
Just a few to get started, let's put our minds together and work out these world problems.

FWIW, I didn't realize there was such a thing as synthetic 2 stroke oil. I thought that since it's getting burned up in the engine, who cares if it's synthetic. I stopped running 2 stroke engines for my lawn equipment 10 years ago. I couldn't handle the oily fumes anymore.

No. Too many gadgets to break on modern vehicles.

Can't forget "How do I roll coal?". Maybe do a How-to and make it a sticky.

Same here until my pressure washer owners manual called for synthetic 2 stroke.

Let’s leave politics out of it and get some good conversations started.

Do you get more money if you wait till a certain age?

Here, eligible for Canada pension plan at 60 but get full pension plan at 65. Full pension is about $300/month more. If you collect it at 64, you get bumped down to the 60 age. You also get old age pension automatically at 65.
