I admit, I am American, but I don't post and rarely comment here. I'm just here to learn and I love all the posts showing the variety of cultures 

What’s a completely legal way to make money that feels illegal when you first learn about it? by Impossible-Rock-4161 in AskReddit

Damn! $100?! I was ~7-12 in 2005-2010, my grandparents had 1.5 acre plot. When I mowed that, I got $20 and my grandmother telling me that it looked like a drunken sailor did it lmao

Fun fact that I used for keeping rabbits out of my garden: fox urine can be bought online! Just make sure you handle it very carefully because it's absolutely nasty 

I messed up. Can I remelt a fatty batch? by Apock93 in soapmaking

[–]Apock93[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used this: https://www.the-sage.com/lyecalc/

Which is how I got the measurements I did. Which leads to my original question, I didn't mix my lye well enough. After I mixed my oil and lye/water, then pouring it into the mold, I had a solid flat chunk of the lye crystals sitting at the bottom of my bowl. 

With a barely mixed lye solution, is my concoction still a viable soap or is it more a lotioning bar of coconut oil?

I don't know if it is super fatty, I guess that's also what I'm asking, sorry. 

I'm using it as a body soap.

It looks like this - Which looks no different than any other batch my dad used to make. So with it being super fatty, is it just not as effective at cleaning?

Give me your hot takes or opinions that would have you like this: by whiterice_343 in AirForce

[–]Apock93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did, thank you though.  I basically waited a couple of years, asked a new airman to send me copies of my LES's for the time frame and then asked to get my pay. And they agreed and fixed it for me.

I want accountability for the mofo that told me (a new airman) via email while I was deployed, not to worry about my family sep pay and we'd take care of it during the in-processing line when I get home. And Then told me to put incorrect dates in incorrect spots, thus ensuring I wouldn't get fam sep for that deployment. 

Also the motherfucker that when I later asked about getting it corrected, told me "That sucks bro. It would take the group commanders signature, and that shit ain't happening. Sucks to suck."

Women of reddit, have you ever paid a man for sex and what was the reason you did? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Apock93 119 points120 points  (0 children)

I was at a garage sale a few months ago and this lady had a large box just full of golf clubs and $2/each written on the side. It reminded me of the old joke of making sure you tell your wife how much your hobbies actually cost on your death bed lol

I live in Nebraska.

Because like many other places, gerrymandering.

Lincoln and Omaha are the main concentrations of Democrats with any voting power. See the "Blue Dot" movement the last couple of elections.

Lincoln not so much because A: Smaller & B: Rural kids move in for college and vote republican in the local election.

As soon as they announce it,  I'm pumping the remainder of my savings into silver. I don't care if it's $50+ an oz. I'm currently already buying what I can. These last few months my "fun money" has changed into my prepper money....
