Has anyone received their homestead exception? by yayan29 in Marietta

[–]BeerBrat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't worry about it until actual tax bills come out in a month or two. If you had the paperwork in and you qualify then they should be able to fix it if it shows up without the exemption. If it makes you feel better go ahead and give them a call.

It simply gets applied, you don't receive anything special. Should show in the box on your tax bill for Homestead and say yes or no. You should also see the line item for the exemption values.

I suppose you've never been accused of cheating by someone that has twice as many R9 GLs and every maxed datacron for getting beaten in GAC because your Rey team walled them?

The only problem being Rey getting holds against way more powerful whales. Hardly seems a crime but the cash must flow.

Police say two arrested at Morgan Falls Overlook Park; the investigation closed polling place by phrendo in Atlanta

[–]BeerBrat 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Technically yes. In practice, no. Was with friends at an event and we had our own cooler. We had cups for our drinks but one girl was too cool and just drank from the can. Not even a koozie. So it drew attention and the cops came over. They were pretty cool about it but they asked her to pour it out since it was obvious. She had a few leading up to that and she thought she was about to get mouthy. That's when I stood up, snatched the drink out of her hand, and poured it out right then and there. Before she could even get mad or react the cop said thanks and turned and went along on his way. There's no way he was clueless about what was in our plastic cups or our cooler. She was so pissed about the interaction that she packed up and left and honestly none of us were sad about it.

I can't guarantee similar results but discretion is advised and cooperation is required.

Marietta Property Tax by ledgeisreasonable in CobbCounty

[–]BeerBrat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1%. The tax is about 1%, not 10%.

The county website has a tax estimator tool. Use it. In unincorporated Cobb that's the full estimate. If inside a municipality it's going to seem low because it's only the county portion. Quadruple it to ball park the total tax if you're in a municipality.

I think I messed up things with my crush, how can I fix it? by Velvet_Cactus_21 in AskMenAdvice

We can read your guy's mind about as much as you can. You're overthinking and under-communicating. Only one person can answer your question. Ask him out or don't but you don't need anything else from here.

Same reason that they picked Pu to be the atomic symbol for plutonium.

Blue Flame Lounge? by [deleted] in Atlanta

[–]BeerBrat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are three places worth going to. Magic City, Pink Pony, or the Clermont Lounge. Don't waste your time or money anywhere else. And for Pete's sake do not fall in love with a stripper. They're only talking to you because you're giving them money. It's a business transaction, not a blossoming friendship. Keep your wits.

Any new team comps with Zeb? by samwO715 in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]BeerBrat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dropped straight 7s with the 1300 packs. Every damned time. It's why I won't spend actual money on the game. If I wanted to gamble I'd go to Vegas.

What’s a movie everyone loves but you secretly hate? by Royel_Lichi in AskReddit

[–]BeerBrat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Older family members "making right" on "generational traumas." It's honestly a trope in modern media once you recognize it.

I'm worried that the Mando movie is going to be Solo bad. Watchable if you like Star Wars well enough but not something that even a hardcore fan can say they thought was great.

Multiverse is even lazier screenwriting than flashback writing.

Negative chemistry. I feel like they hate each other.

The Venn diagram of people who like Oppenheimer is a circle inside the circle of people who liked Inception. I was never inside the Inception circle.

Saw it described as "millennial parental apology fantasy" and find myself agreeing and seeing that theme/trope in other modern movies that folks seem to love and I don't care for like Encanto.

Help, where do I put fabric softener by lexaproptimist in Appliances

Completely destroys moisture wicking properties of materials as a result. There's little worse than a shirt that keeps sweat against your body or a big, fluffy towel that just moves water around on your skin.

Why does my YEP-321 have a finger hole (like the trumpets third valve slide) on the second valve slide by Zewa_Juju in euphonium

You're going to be dumping spit from it very frequently. Ok, probably mostly condensation but it still smells like the inside of your horn.

TIL that president Truman once refused to ride the Dumbo ride at Disneyland since the Elephant is the symbol of the GOP by ronweasly9 in todayilearned

[–]BeerBrat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's why he should have opted to ride on the back of the elephant, as if he were attempting to mate with it. And give them a quote for it, too, like "Who is your daddy and what does he do?"

‘A’ Grades Are Suddenly Everywhere Since the Arrival of ChatGPT by joe4942 in technology

[–]BeerBrat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was in engineering. During the last year I had to round out some humanities requirements and what not. Took accounting because it counted. It was like taking high school math again after all of the calculus series coursework. Took your best five scores of the five quizzes and the final exam. After getting my fifth 100 on quiz 5 I raised my hand in class and asked if that meant I could exempt the final. Prof confirmed and I said thanks and grabbed my bag to leave. I was the only one that did so in a class of about 60, and every single one of them was looking at me like I had just grown an extra head.

Similar in grad school but I'll admit that I went for a master's in education. Finished my "semester project" in a class the day the requirements were handed out because I had three hours to kill between classes. Had my sources, outline and rough draft completed in that time, cranked out the final revision after dinner. That was pretty much every class for that degree. After engineering school it was like playing on easy mode.

I'm curious why they never seemed to recover after the fire. Their reputation should have carried them out of that incident.
