I literally just had to do this 2 days ago.
After trying to pull one from the top with all my strength about 4 times, I slammed the 3 or 4 buckets down on their sides to try separating them that way. THAT seemed to loosen them up enough for me to separate all of them after that.
Yes, I said damn it a couple of times.
Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

yeah -- that bucket thing.
yeah.
PS ... and you know... I really can't tell if Fiona loves her job... or loathes her job.

Just dropped a delivery off to this guy and I spied something in his garage. I already asked if he was interested in selling them he said no. 😂. He said it like those old things why would you want to buy those.

These two letters were printed in a 1983 issue of Stereo Review the month after they published the first (from what I've seen anyway) article concerning differences between "speaker wire" and Monster Cable. This was the rebuttal, in hindsight you can see where all "cable" points of view, we now have, began:

^ that is outstanding
@SeleniumFalcon -- thanks for sharing those Stereophile letters.
Good ol'... wires.
FWIW: There's a pretty... umm... pedantic discussion about wires goin' on even now at... well... you can guess where.

Glad it was interesting, I like the "L and R" labels on the Q-tip, a kinder, gentler form of argument with less abusive overtones.

The complete Discwasher kit is a nice touch. Mine lost its fluid bottles decades ago and the Zerostat releases zero ions…and I’m too cheap to buy a new one.

Just opened the Death Wish coffee, it's very dark.
Edit: used a little extra creamer but it's good. Couldn't tell you how it is straight up, I always use sugar & cream.

Just for a reference, I used my Sweet Maria’s Roast Color Card on the photo above to see how dark it is (I have been roasting for 12-13 years). It’s between French Roast and “Burnt.”

I don't think you are their 'core demographic'
Nor I am I, as I always adulterate my coffee, too!
PS That photograph you posted... looks kind of... umm... clinical to me.

Avoid buying pre-ground coffee.

I've not had any in awhile but I used to make Cuban espresso with it for me and a few other officers. It would make the hair on your scalp stand up and tingle. Not the best flavor coffee but who buys something labeled world's strongest coffee for the flavor??? Good stuff either way. -
