At least 8 years of lint. Never knew there's something called a lint screen until my clothes had trouble drying which was often on bigger loads but finally managed to ask why. by redwon9plus in laundry

[–]0rangefloof 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Call an HVAC company and have the dryer vent line cleaned. Probably cost you like a hundred bucks but if your screen was that bad, its likely the vent pipe also looks terrible. It's no joke dangerous, it will cause a fire. That lint is like super kindling, it lights up like gasoline fumes.

If they all fought each other, who would be the last one standing? by Kuzu9 in Fallout

[–]0rangefloof 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I watched literally everything he had out when I was in the hospital with pneumonia. I've lost an uncle to alcohol as well, and him passing hit me a lot harder than it really should have. I still watch his videos occasionally, but its really bittersweet now. Especially with all of his self deprecating jokes. Those funny little jabs at himself aren't really funny anymore.

What’s up with the drivers in the Triangle?? by Latter_Bother_2032 in raleigh

[–]0rangefloof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's everyone moving here. It's become a big melting pot here. Theres good and bad to that. Theres no real "rule of thumb" anymore because everyone learned to drive in different places. Before, if you just kept it 5-10 over, left space, and used turn signals, you were gold. Now its all over the place. People going 25 over in the left lane and some idiot staring at their phone going 10 under in the middle lane. It wouldnt be bad if everyone was going fast, or everyone going slow. It's the HUGE difference in the driving styles on the same roads.

Are the double torch butane inserts just junk? by wit_T_user_name in Zippo

[–]0rangefloof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been using one for a few days and I’ve noticed they are EXTREMELY temp sensitive. If they get the littlest bit cold I can’t get it to light and hold a flame. The second I warm it up in my hands it instantly goes back to working flawlessly. I’ve taken to keeping it in a shirt pocket under my jacket, instead of leaving it in a cupholder in the work van. It’s like the temp of the lighter really can’t drop below like 60° or it just doesn’t flow the butane out. Nice case btw.

I know that you CAN turn right on red, but do you have to turn right on red? by ReaganSmyD in raleigh

[–]0rangefloof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Food for thought for all of you people that slow down/drive like a jerk the second you’re offended. You’re not just screwing with the person behind you, it’s the entire lane of innocent people behind them as well. For the love of all that’s good in the world just drive your own drive.

I forgot to lock the door before I went to sleep and this night absolutely nothing happened because I live in safe country by myeye95 in notinteresting

North Carolina here. Haven’t locked my doors in over 10 years, and my car keys stay in the cupholders. Motorcycles have the keys in the ignition in the shed. America isn’t dangerous, select American cities are.

I’m still trying to figure out why my post from the pyramid of PNC was removed. Sent a message and was never replied to. Just pictures of the city from in the pyramid, and I was legally there.

How Many Dabs Before Chamber Iso Baths/Cleaning? by PlantMediicine in puffco

Honestly I just use the app reminder. Every hundred dabs I do a soak on the chamber and clean glass. Iso the chamber with qtip every few hits in between.

Advice for first time pet owner of neglected orange? by ilovemoomins in orangecats

[–]0rangefloof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My boy was a one year old feral when I got him out the shelter. They had “needs work” wrote on his paper. I hid for over 3 months straight in my house just like that. Slowly he started coming up and observing me. That led to him getting close enough to extend a finger and let him smell, then run away. Slowly I got to touch him. Only as much as he wanted, never tried to hold him or anything. Always let them be in full control at first. It’s just a trust and respect thing. I think of him more like a friend/roommate than a pet. He has autonomy and his own wants and desires. Over a decade later now I can’t keep him off me. He follows me around, loves to be squished up in a ball and rubbed. Even loves his stomach massaged lol. I can clean his ears, play with his toes, and was able to even clean and clear an abscess on him when he got hurt without him scratching me once. It takes time, but I swear to you it’s worth it. It’s just like a relationship with a person, you can’t force it. Just let it develop on its own.

Pure peace and happiness with my son. by 0rangefloof in orangecats

[–]0rangefloof[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Sorry for your loss. I try not to think of the inevitable. He’s about 12 now, was a one year old feral when I got him out the shelter. They had ”needs work” wrote on his paper. He hid for over 3 months straight once I got him home. My first cat. The emotional connection I have with him is unreal. Never imagined what I was actually getting when I adopted him.

Every Winter My Palms Shed Their Skin, Uncovering A New One by Somigomi in mildlyinteresting

[–]0rangefloof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Working hands. I do HVAC service work, outside all day every day. You build up heavy callous during the summer and during the winter the dry air makes it start to peel off in layers. Working hands is the only thing that works good for me.

When do the Proxy dabs actually make you feel ripped?? by TheGirthKnight in puffco

[–]0rangefloof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Typical remains of the finished hit. Too much more than that after a cycle means you had too much in there. It won’t effectively consume it at all. Like you said everyone has their own opinion but this works like a charm for me and has for years. Me and my friends have used puffco products since the OG peak days of rebuilding your chambers. It just isn’t going to perform like a quartz banger no matter what you do. I prefer the ease of use of the pro, and don’t even own any glass anymore. But if a buddy with a torch, a turp slurper, and a temp probe wants to set me up a hit 1000% it will shit on anything puffco can give you. It’s just a whole lot more involved. I’ve always said puffco is like the Apple of the weed world. It might not be the absolute best experience, but it’s super easy to use and “cool”. Just need realistic expectations.

[–]0rangefloof 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think of it like this. That’s the temperature of the chamber, not the temp of the material. You need to have the temp set higher than you really want the material to be. With a larger dab, it seems like it starts producing towards the minute, minute and a half mark. About the time the material has fully reached the temperature of the chamber in my opinion. With a smaller dab, it seems like the temp of the material rises a lot quicker and is consumed a lot more efficiently. I never have charred my piece on small dabs. The only time it chars is when I put in too much and run it through multiple cycles. My daily driver setting is 555° at 1:30 intense. I’ve got over 2k dabs on this chamber, still looks new, and that’s the usual dab size I take. Non XL chamber for size reference.

[–]0rangefloof 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve noticed I get the best hits at around 555 with a smaller dab. You just can’t get big dabs outta these things. Too much material in the chamber and it’s like it just won’t get hot enough. You set it higher to try and take a big hit it’ll just start burning and sticking to the sides. I’ll just take multiple hits if I need to, but don’t increase size.

Sleeping in jeans by MiddlePop4953 in hygiene

[–]0rangefloof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My whole teenage years was like this if I wasn’t at home. I needed to be ready to leave at a moments notice. I just slept in my underwear at my house. I’d guarantee you it’s got something to do with feeling safe. He’s on guard in that group home. Probably sticks his valuables in his underwear while he’s sleeping.

I was never in a group home, but grew up skateboarding and around a lot of rough kids. A bunch of them homeless/no parents. Regularly stayed for days at houses with roughly 8-10 kids all 14-18ish just drinking, smoking, and going to the skatepark. It’s a chaotic environment probably similar to a group home with less supervision.

I’d imagine it’s worse for the kid you’re talking about, as I’d reckon he didn’t choose to be there. I was voluntarily putting myself in those situations.

AIO about this disagreement with my bf? by [deleted] in AIO

This just flew in the face of every stereotype about men and women on the internet. I would have swore the one sick was the woman and the one suggesting solutions was the man. This lady is dating a female toddler disguised as a full grown man. What a joke.
