"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

My dad's lawnmower is crustier than a coal mine. Inside and out. So I'm rebuilding it. Damn thing won't start.

I've begun disassembly and cleaning/degreasing. Now when I rebuild it, I'm going to need to lubricate the moving parts until the oil gets to work. Haven`t been able to find engine lubricant. Would vaseline do?

Also, would I need treadlock. I didn't notice any on the bolts I pulled.

It's a 4-stroke 3.5hp engine.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

This sounds like a Briggs and Stratton valve in block engine right? As far as reassembly lube 30W motor oil will suffice. You can use moly assembly lube that is sold in tubes. You do not need threadlocker. Just torque the bolts to spec and they will not come loose.

Usually when a mower won't start the carburetor just needs cleaned out and reassembled assuming that it has spark. But when rebuilding an engine like a Briggs you would normally just take the cylinder head off and scrape the carbon off, disasemble and clean the carburetor with carb cleaner, new spark plug and engine oil. Adjusting the throttle linkage/choke linkage and the governor can be tricky without a service book and a tach.
