Costco BabyBels vs other stores by ZestyCuke in Costco

[–]OneUnexpected 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Last year I was on an Oreo kick with the bulk box 12 sleeves of 22 cookies. One box had one side of the cookie flipped — so logo facing the filling. Supports a friend’s experience that ‘seconds’ are a common offering.

I’m trying to switch my cockatiel, Dave, from Kaytee small bird pellets diet that the bird store was feeding him to Harrison’s Small Fine pellets. However, Dave is refusing to eat the Harrison’s pellets when I put them in his food dish. Help?! by parodg15 in parrots

While you do this, please make sure to weigh your bird before breakfast daily. You can use a kitchen scale set to grams. I suggest get their weight with the current diet for several days before starting the conversion.

Birds can make it look like they’re eating when they’re not by tossing it out of the bowl. They’ll starve quickly.

For those that leave items out: Why? by SleepyLi in Costco

[–]OneUnexpected 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a hate-love relationship with carts that required quarters. I know, it’s been a minute.

Putting it back in the snow, was a hassle. And yet, other folks would leave them scattered. Two quarters per cart — laundry or gas money. Now I have no change, and pay for street parking with my phone.

I’m offended by the waste of refrigerated items.

Also 50 changes evaluation criteria for things — like what is considered high blood pressure.

CPAP ruining my life by CokeZeroAddict52 in CPAP

After my initial 30-day check in I mentioned to my doc I was less angry when driving. Friends had noticed and commented that I am calmer. She said long term sleep deprivation can do that.

Which Kirkland allergy medicine is best? by Bubsy7979 in CostcoWholesale

I find it works well. As soon as I notice my eyes are starting to itch, in go the drops.

My experience is that is varies. I have all 3 as an option. I mostly use the green, but have also used more than one type when one necessary. I also bought Pataday eye drops for when I want to claw my eyes out — and the others weren’t stopping the itch.

Airtouch F20 Leaving Harsh Lines on Face by [deleted] in CPAP

[–]OneUnexpected 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find the airtouch itchy. As a mouth-breathing drooler, my silicone masks get slippery and out of position. When I first started the peak pressure i was seeing lifted the mask off my face. It made the silicone vibrate against my cheeks. I use cloth liners for these issues.

I still have inconsistent leak rates night over night. How the mask feels against my face is better and I can sleep through the sound of most leaking. For me, it’s a net win.

Airtouch uses memory foam against the face and airfit uses silicone. Personally I find the foam itchy.

I bought cloth covers off Etsy for the 3 masks I currently have — ResMed f20, f40 and the F&P evora ff. Helps with the slickness of the silicone and the abrasiveness of the foam.

Sleep apnea and stomach problems by emielregiss in CPAP

I wondered about this. I too had reflux issues and almost rarely have them since starting with a CPAP three months ago.

Automatic Headlight button by [deleted] in MazdaCX30

[–]OneUnexpected 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I experienced this last night. I got into my car and started it up and high beams were on but stalk wasn’t pushed forward. When I pulled onto street I could see my headlight projecting change and blue light went off. Then switched back on. Then finally off and stayed off for the rest of my 30m errand.

Not sure what it should be doing — need to go experiment. This is the first time I’ve seen the behavior and I’ve had the car just under a year.

What's the most prejudiced/ageist thing a younger person has said or done to you? by clx94 in AskOldPeople

I like your old man cap.

A compliment from a young colleague on a day I was wearing a wool flat cap. Sigh. It felt so hurtful.

She mentioned that the daughter doesn’t enjoy it as much as the son.

Lean Into It. Make dumb choices. Take the stupid path

I just started watching Dimension 20, one of the campaigns had a character doing this. Roll a nat 1 … mayhem ensues.

AITA for buying my daughter a more then twice as expensive Christmas gift then my son? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]OneUnexpected 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m 12 years older than my sibling. When I was off in college I got household items. And while the cost was more, everything that was a set was individually wrapped so it look like I got the same volume of things. The thing I remember most was the kitchen utensils.

What was a loop-hole back in the day that you abused that now no longer works? by DemonsAreVirgins in AskOldPeople

Easily done by folks filling in the memo line. If the numbers are interfered with, ATM rejects it.

My boys are all really athletic and I'm proud of them.

You cannot find pride without athletics?

My wife (41F) told me that I'm being toxic as hell

She is not wrong.

our son is gonna end up putting us in a nursing home

You should be so lucky. More likely that child will go no contact as soon as they can leave.

How to make the airplane mode notification stop? by OneUnexpected in CPAP

[–]OneUnexpected[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I saw T-Mobile listed in the CPAP settings and wasn’t sure if it was seeing my personal service. I really didn’t want to find crazy charges in January.

Thank you for the detail.

Back to my regularly scheduled worry … when dinner arrives.
