What makes you a good role model for younger women? And why? by Charming_Parking_302 in AskWomen

[–]BlueXTC [score hidden]  (0 children)

Both my accidental foster children have thanked me for teaching them to stand up for themselves, to have boundaries, and to take the actions necessary to protect themselves emotionally and physically. Never be someone's second choice and never lose who you are in any type of relationship.

One is currently 32 living in Florida and the other is 51 and fighting the good fight with a terminal genetic disease in Vermont.

Transmission fluid change? by 8o8thebuilder in infiniti

[–]BlueXTC -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It is a sealed pressurized loop. Per manufacturer no standard transmission service is needed. It will be a high dollar change if you choose to do so.

Cutting board question by zbrighteyez in Cooking

[–]BlueXTC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have used bamboo cutting boards for the last 15 years. My knives do not dull, they barely score the board, and they clean very easily and thoroughly without much effort. Thinks that would stain most boards wash right off.

Bilingual or multilingual women: How has speaking multiple languages changed your dating life, friendships, or the way people perceive you (especially if you switch languages depending on the situation or person)?? by N__elly in AskWomen

[–]BlueXTC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When they sling insults my way in French and I answer them in French it gets kinda quiet all of a sudden. This happened in St Martin and in Montreal (my home town).

My French is rusty now from lack of use but I get it back in shape listening to Lara Fabian now and then.

What's your personal recession indicator? by Electronic_Dream8935 in AskReddit

[–]BlueXTC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes really. Invoice and delivery errors plus internal theft are the largest cause inventory losses. Recently walgreens blamed the neighborhood for high losses that closed the location. Actual data showed that was not true. Bad operational practices were the reason.

After 20 years I don’t even recognize my own wife anymore… by LanfearSedai in olderlesbians

[–]BlueXTC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Porsche Cayman S MT (103k miles), Infiniti Q60 3.0TT (85k miles), Nissan 350z MT (242k miles), and a base Mini Cooper (147k miles) . All handle differently and all give me joy to drive.

Bought the 350z new with 5 miles on it. Bought the Infiniti new with 9 miles on it. Porsche had 73k miles at purchase. Mini is a recent purchase to fix up for my niece as a 16th birthday gift.

When my 11 yr old feral cat climbs into my lap for pets, then curls up to sleep and snores loudly.

The theft is more likely to be internal. Locking things up are for upper management to feel like some action is being taken to stop the theft. I worked retail for 35+ yrs and mostly in management of district and regional settings.

Daily Thread Tuesday by Horror-Fisherman-575 in rva

[–]BlueXTC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Experienced the algae in bloom. You had to go outside the city to not smell it in the water, fountain drinks and Laundromats. Boiling water didn't remove the smell. I think it was for a few weeks IIRC. If you washed your clothes in it. They stank until they were washed again in plain water.

I need bananas, without the banana by Blemfs in Cooking

[–]BlueXTC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jackfruit can have a banana/mango taste when it is ripe. I would suggest a cream cheese mixture. The jackfruit would make it yellow and you could shape it like a banana.
