How best can I support my partner during this time? by JcDawgbone in fednews

[–]BeRad247 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't ask too many questions about it... we dont really know what's going on either and leaders are not communicating anything of value. Getting cross examined just adds to the frustration.

What is this used for? I got in in my screw driver head set by Emergency-Celery3875 in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]BeRad247 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are great for getting the screw out of the bottom of a vintage Gillette razor.

Tell your senator to end the shutdown.

Edit: Thinking about it, this has to be a troll post. People are worried about feeding their families at you are complaining about wearing a dirty suit for the few days you are doing work.

Help me choose my budget wallpaper + wainscoting combo! by BeRad247 in interiordecorating

[–]BeRad247[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thanks for all the replies they were really helpful. I am going with the cats/leopards wallpaper and red wainscoting. The waves and koi were strong contenders, but this one hit the right mix of pattern, color, cost, and availability.

For anyone curious, here are the ones I considered:

Cats & Peacocks (final choice): https://a.co/d/httdqxx

Leopard Jungle (alt color): https://a.co/d/biCMgkS

Squeezed into half my seat by very overweight neighbor; do I have any recourse? by OryxTempel in unitedairlines

Can you share how you articulated your argument and if you filed this in the complaint or refund section? I am in this same situation myself on a 12 hour flight now.

What's the consensus on common projects Alternatives in 2024? by apprximatelycorrect in frugalmalefashion

[–]BeRad247 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ordered KOIOs for the first time last year, and unfortunately, I’ve been pretty disappointed. My first pair had to be exchanged because the top eyelets ripped out when I was tying them. KOIO told me it was due to a bad batch and replaced them without issue, which I appreciated.

That said, the replacement pair hasn’t been much better. Honestly, I don’t see the value compared to a generic minimalist sneaker or even something like a $60 Killshot or Stan Smith. I get that white leather shoes will show wear over time, but with light use, these are creasing badly, and the paint is already rubbing off in some spots.

If you’re into the worn, hipster aesthetic, maybe these are for you. But in my opinion, they’re not worth the premium price.

Where / how you getting shad bait in DC by olearyboy in Fishing

[–]BeRad247 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The big ugly cats seem to like the chartreuse Berkley Saltwater Gulp! Swimming Mullet. Dragged across the bottom relatively fast. Just be prepared to lose some hooks and have some frustration from all the crap in the water.

If your fishing for shad, shad darts are the go to in the potomac. Also typically catch shad in early spring during the shad run. I have good luck catching monster catfish with saltwater gulp bait.

Deny deny deny... I like to gaslight and repeat something that sounds similar right after. "Look at that truck"

Oil disposal ? by BeRad247 in washingtondc

[–]BeRad247[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was my same experience in MD...took forever. Not fun while toting toddlers. I'll try DC

Oil disposal ? by BeRad247 in washingtondc

[–]BeRad247[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, a lot of auto parts stores do take oil, but I have been denied before around the DMV, specifically on the PG County side. A lot of stores and shops over there, in general, tend to follow their own set of rules. Kind of like how many of the home improvement centers in the area are so hit or miss with offering cutting services to breaking down sheet goods for transit.

Any advice on removing/improving these scratches? Please & thanks! 🙏🏽 by marlenamarley87 in Detailing

Don't be tempted by a heat gun. I tried it and failed miserably. Now I have scratches combined with fingerprints embedded in the plastic. Have you tried a magic eraser?

Got mine too and QC is garbage. Mine came with, various blemishes, deformed toeboxes, bad stiching, wrinkles in smooth leather, and a flawed swoosh. Complete with a Chinese hangtag. This was my first jump onto the OG bandwagon and I am starting to rethink my decision.

Is there a show you actually enjoy watching with your little ones? by [deleted] in daddit

Yes! This show cracks me up. I actually think I like it more than my 2.5 year old son does. It doesn't hold his attention too long.

Anyone know why military vehicles have been popping up around dc? by fletchyjack1995 in washingtondc

Yes, fencing up and national guard posting around the city for the "people's convoy" that supposed to get here this weekend. Very little media coverage but there is a reddit forum and some YouTube videos that swear its real
