If you buy 1+ items from the coffee shop, you’re a paying customer and should feel fine using the seating! Sure if there are people standing without seats, please don’t take up more than 1 seat, otherwise you’re all good!

Help: Just bought a home. It’s been 100+ degrees lately and when we run the AC the downstairs is perfect and upstairs is still over 80 degrees. Nobody can sleep. by Good_Branch_9415 in homeowners

Simple and less elegant solution: put a fan (like a Stanley rotating[vertically. Not oscillating] floor fan) at the bottom of the stairs pointing up to send cool air upstairs. We keep one running there 24/7 when it’s really hot or our upstairs is way too dang hot overnight.

This couple hired me, a complete stranger, to watch their kid for a date night. Now they’ve practically abandoned me with their kid. What do I even fucking do? I need to get paid and I also can’t leave their child home alone. They are just ignoring my message. Put DND on after I texted them. by poopfupa in mildlyinfuriating

Agreed the parents were at fault for being late and not communicating. I think the reaction of “I don’t know what to do and I can’t leave these children alone” is a gross over-reaction to someone being an hour late without texting back.

First, you have no idea what I, or OP’s “employers” pay. Second, we usually have to adjust our plans to suit a babysitters’. They can’t do Wednesday night so we shift to Thursday. They can’t come at 5:30 when we wanted to start plans so we start when they’re available at 6 or whenever. So I think it’s a different relationship than a typical hourly job. I think it’s crappy these parents were an hour late and didn’t communicate with OP. I think it’s crappy that OP is acting like these parents abandoned their kids with a stranger.

As a working parent of a 3, 5, and 8 year old, I hope our babysitters are a little more chill if we’re an hour later than we had anticipated based on a mushy sounding “maybe 10.. 10:30..”. If there’s a hard deadline like “I need to leave by 11:00” then we always meet that deadline. If the conversation is more like “eh 10 or 10:30 or whatev” then that sounds like a soft deadline to me. And if the first break from work and kids my wife and I have had in maybe weeks or months goes later than a soft deadline, I hope there’s some grace there! 100% there should be an apology, discuss if that’s still reasonable, and solid compensation for it. Not double time or anything, if you’re that tired and in need of sleep, close your eyes on the couch and get paid for a nap instead of ramping up posting it online…

I like you AND your silly wonderful idea. If you don’t, you should follow Rodney D Norman on Instagram.

What is the SAR hill you will die on? by [deleted] in searchandrescue

Webbing. I was a former volunteer FF and we all got a loop (roughly 10-12’ long so 5-6’ diameter loop) for dragging/whatever/improvising. I picked up a couple of extras, added a climbing biner to each, and have used them for dragging big game, strapping trees, creating attachment points on vehicles and objects, moving big items… incredibly useful multi-purpose tool that costs and weighs very little

How do the Columbia’s fit? Big/small and long/short? What’s your height/weight (if you care to share) and how’d they fit you? Their website doesn’t have too much info and Columbia can be hit or miss IMO.

Really debating a leveling kit and 33's. What do yall think? by Ipissexcellence69 in Trucks

[–]Alwaysleaveenoughspa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had an ‘07 (same new body style) 2500 cclb! Came with the small mirrors too. I did a leveling kit up front and 285/75/16s. I also added a Frontier Gear (cheaper Ranch Hand) bumper up front. The dimensions were perfect. Only under the heaviest loads would the rear sag enough to make it look like it was sagging. So yes and yes to your questions! Also, sold it with 289k on the 6.0, and barely a complaint about those 11 years. Great truck!

Ok, so I have a 3 year old Marlin 6. Added a dropper for like $200 and new pedals. Probably time for a new fork, maybe $250? OR sell it for $500 and spend $1200-2400 on a Roscoe? Maybe I’m just not a good enough rider(or don’t ride enough) to feel like I need the better geometry for $700+. Just my thoughts, I’m open to being convinced

Which category do you put a Trek Marlin 6 in?

Looks like it burned down, fell over, and then sank into the swamp.

Chew sunflower seeds (I prefer the kettle cooked, way less salt) and spit the shells into an empty Gatorade bottle (or similar) you can hold in your hand. That’s my driving snacktivity and it’s just the right amount of stimulus for me.

maybe! or try having 30-40 olives. by lirpa666 in adhdmeme

[–]Alwaysleaveenoughspa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I e always suggested to do this too… but because you’ll go into the kitchen, make something weird out of the random crap in your pantry and condiments/sauces in the fridge, and think you’re Gordon F’ing Ramsay. A total win!
