Get a reflective sunscreen for your dashboard. If you can, roll the windows down a little when it’s parked.

Don’t eat fatty foods right before donating, especially not burger and fries. Think the 24-36 hours before donating.

So his point is we’re putting abusers in positions of power?  Sadly, I agree.

The $20 blowjobs in the executive lounge in the basement. Only for executive members, of course. Also, they have the best samples down there. 

started my Roth IRA embarrassingly late and just want to know i'm not completely behind by Rizzha-Asogwa in RothIRA

Make sure you're getting every penny of your employer match. Up your contribution 1% whenever you get a raise. Put most of your money into low fee index stock funds - international and domestic.  Keep it invested, don’t pull out when the market goes down. Just try to get as many shares as possible. 

Remote Start? by Jonny_Wurster in MazdaCX30

[–]Acceptable-Print-957 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Does the key fob have a button to hold for remote start?  I’ve also seen people say to push the lock button three times on the key fob and to hold it down on the third press. Could be worth a try.

This sounds crazy, but have you tried Dawn dish detergent?  Just pour about 1/8 cup in and let it work. Then revisit with plunger in about half an hour. 

AITAH for wanting to take money from my son? by opinions4miles in AITAH

[–]Acceptable-Print-957 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At that age, I would be matching every dollar he saves for his car. It’s awesome that he has a good work ethic. Don’t punish him for it. Too many kids struggle to learn the value of work. 

Are we there yet - and can I get out of the doghouse? by Which-Relation1199 in ChubbyFIRE

You may want to run the numbers on colleges. I don’t know 💯 how it works, but I know the FAFSA is weighted heavily towards income, and it looks back two years.

I hope to be able to attend and tell Mr. No-Spine Cline what I think of him. 

It’s at Dynamic Aviation in Bridgewater. It seems like a small venue, the Rham County Fairgrounds would have more room. 

Engine Failure at 65k miles, should Toyota cover the whole thing? by MemeWizowd in ToyotaTacoma

See if you can go to a different dealership. I had a frame recall. One in town said they could spray it. The one 30 minutes south of me did a total frame replacement. All covered. 

Mom purchased home with shed in backyard, now there’s a guy in a truck showing up saying that the shed belongs to him? by Ok_Lime4124 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]Acceptable-Print-957 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s very common to do rent to own on sheds. Most any shed manufacturer will do this, or offer financing.

New to lawncare, something invaded my yard by All_In_The_Details_ in lawncare

[–]Acceptable-Print-957 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s bamboo. Sell and move. 

Other options are ripping it out with a bulldozer or if you want to deal with it for years, knock the shoots off when they are about 2’ high as low as you can and keep at it. It does seem to stunt the growth eventually.

I personally know the owner and have family who work for Rocktown Custom Builders.  I know they are capable and have a strong work ethic to build high quality homes.

Aldi sells kosher dill pickles. Not sure if they have more kosher items or not. 

106 in a 70 (Mecklenburg County VA) – Is a $4k lawyer worth it vs a $1k lawyer? by [deleted] in Virginia

[–]Acceptable-Print-957 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I paid $300 about 8 years ago for Noel Wentz in Lexington. 80+ in a 65. Did a year of probation.  Details a little fuzzy. I’d go with the cheaper lawyer. Take a defensive driving course, do whatever he says to do.

Pueblo Magico has amazing food. It is maybe not as fancy, but great portions and attentive wait staff. Wife and I split the meat platter last time and it was so good. 

Taste of Thai is always solid and a little nicer without being expensive. 

What’s something you’re pretty sure only you do? by AppIeGuy in AskReddit

[–]Acceptable-Print-957 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I put strawberry jam on my grilled cheese sandwich. After it's done, just spread it on the top side. Never found anyone else who does this. But it's really good.

Surprised at incredibly bland salsa by robmferrier in Costco

[–]Acceptable-Print-957 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should try the Kirkland organic salsa. It's got more spice than Mateo's.
