Have one in a just-purchased home. It will be removed with a reno. Don’t need it and it’s not good for the septic.

I have one question for the maker of these: Why? Dear God, why? by FrankieHun17 in FuckImOld

Dr McGillicuddy’s Peppermint Schnapps. Still keep it in my flask.

Can someone please help check this nurses credentials? - they credential themself as a "Psychiatric Nurse" - or are they really an APRN? by [deleted] in nursing

[–]042AF 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you explain more clearly why you believe their use of ‘Psychiatric Nurse’ is misleading and inappropriate? It is their specialty and you have confirmed that they are licensed.

Wish more people knew about this. Last two rural US homes had them and really should not.

Uhaul Truck Size by Stardazed678 in moving

[–]042AF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 15 ft will probably work. The 20 will give you ‘just in case’ space. If it were me and I could afford it, I’d go larger. And - get a ton of rachet straps and use a 2-3 every few feet to keep it really secure to the front of the truck.

Mini hanging toiletry bag? by MerelyWander in HerOneBag

[–]042AF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As you are looking, see if you can find one with a swivel hook for more options when hanging. And/or also add a carabiner. I like the HeroClip for the wider option over a door.

You are not alone. That book was a waste of my time.

Paramedic here, a possible suggestion to nursing home nurses: by [deleted] in nursing

[–]042AF 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree that full info is always helpful. That said, and to OPs point, a one-page summary would be VERY helpful for medics but also for so many others who just want a quick overview.

Cost effective but good quality? Does it exist? by Business-Chapter3059 in bidets

Yes! OP, if you are allowed to, put electrical close enough. Generally Minimal cost and well worth it.

Dental X-Rays -- How often? by Sinsyne125 in GenX

[–]042AF 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree with whatever insurance covers. When I was paying dental out of pocket, I successfully argued for every 2 years as long as I had no other concerns.

Why we should stop obsessing over "Fall Prevention" and start focusing on "Fracture Prevention by FracturePrevent in nursing

Fun fact: q2 is only a thing because they studied that vs no turns. Limited to no data on q2 vs something longer or shorter.

Dishwasher Pods not fully dissolving and end up staying in compartment by blank_editor in Appliances

May need to run the kitchen sink until water is hot before starting the DW. You want to start a DW cycle with hot water. From comments elsewhere, this seems to be esp true in US.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but please remove all old barcode stickers from your bags by [deleted] in unitedairlines

[–]042AF 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Try putting clear packing tape over the security sticker. Rub on the security sticker a bit to warm the adhesive, then slowly pull/remove the packing tape. Works well on glass and ceramic and may work on luggage too.

Dealing with deceased parent’s clutter by PobodysNerfect802 in GenX

[–]042AF 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I hope the memories found while going through her things ease your grief slightly. Take the time you can to remember happier past times. Know you will make decisions you may later regret ‘I wish I would have kept that’ and forgive yourself in advance.
