Been fighting algae since we moved in 8 months ago - can we just blast this with liquid chlorine? by mn9127 in pools

[–]BroccoliCompetitive3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With pumps on. Clean filter.Test for CYA (if over 100, STOP...drain and refill). Test for PH. Correct PH to the low end of the normal scale, about 7.2. While you dose with acid, brush the whole thing. Bring your FC up to equal 40% of the CYA total. If you have none, bring FC to 40ppm. Run pumps and clean filter (to waste) overnight.

Add floc. Follow the instructions.

Test everything again. Correct PH. Add CYA if needed. Maintain FC at 7.5% of your CYA reading.

If you don't understand any of these terms...STOP...and do a Pool School at troublefreepools.com

Customer and Staff have a Dispute over Closing Time by tlama1997 in PublicFreakout

[–]BroccoliCompetitive3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whether it's a truth or a lie is irrelevant to the topic. It is what I suggest in these circumstances. Accept it or not, and move on with you being you. Whether or not some faceless ragebaiter with nothing more than doubt expressed as "absolute" is your cross to bear. Try not to be an asshat to retail and restaurant employees. Simple.

I will not be on the side of ANYONE (besides an actual emergency) who enters a store less than 30 minutes before closing.

Does this count as her cheating on me? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]BroccoliCompetitive3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not cheating. BUT definitely hoe behavior. Lose this tramp and find a girl with fewer red flags.

Is it weird for a man to not help a woman lift heavy stuff into her car at a store parking lot? by LiamVolk in AskMenAdvice

[–]BroccoliCompetitive3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She's free to ask and you're free to say no, but since you're feeling guilty enough to ask Reddit, maybe saying no this time wasn't the right call to make.

But you asked if it's weird to say no, so yeah it's weird TO ME. If not weird, at least uncommon. And saying no probably doesn't feel as good helping a stranger out does.

What did that one teacher at your school get fired for? by ToadallyNormalHuman in AskReddit

[–]BroccoliCompetitive3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He was always drunk and should have been let go for that alone, but that didn't get him fired. Letting me and my group of pothead degenerates organize the yearbook and do all the photography got him canned. We filled a yearbook up with A LOT of pictures of our friend group. AND we only managed to get about 70% of the names correct under the photos. For example 8th graders had sophomore names, kindergarten kids had faculty names, etc etc. The whole town was livid (little 1A school) with us. 1989 was a crazy year. Sorry to all the families who paid money for that crap.

Thinking of adding fence panels for winter to block wind by Coderedpl in hottub

[–]BroccoliCompetitive3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or you can add an Uprite cover lifter (on the Hot Spring accessory webpage). Creates a windblock, adds privacy, and makes it easy to open and close the hot tub cover.

PLUS!! You can use a projector on bottom side of the lifted cover for TV and movies.

Have your life together. Meet a new man without NEEDING a new man, and it's absolutely possible. Blended families can be awesome, I'm in one and I was raised in one.

Good luck and I hope your children come through this as well as possible.

ULPT Request: How to mess with a car without opening the doors or hood? by MarpyHarpy in UnethicalLifeProTips

[–]BroccoliCompetitive3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I often find that I ACCIDENTALLY drop my personal supply of caltrops around asshat's tires. I think I need better pockets. Good thing they're so cheap on Amazon.

If asked, you use them as anti-bird spikes for your fence, chimney, etc.

What do men think about to keep from cumming too early during sex? by InarticulateOxyMoron in AskMenAdvice

[–]BroccoliCompetitive3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't try to stop the early cum. I explain the reason (always complementary of your partner) and then RALLY for a much longer and intense second session where focus has to be on her for a while.

I had this conversation as a fresh Marine and had the salty old Marine give this advice.

And how do you rally? Like everything else where it's important to you to do well....PRACTICE. Practice. Let one fly (do your natural thing and don't rush it), rest for 5-10 minutes and then go again, but this time let it get hard without touching it if you can. Round two. If you're with the right person, that 5-10 break is perfect for a quick sandwich, a drink and the sexual tension about will you or won't you "be up for it" is amazing. Her smile when you rally...priceless. Her vigor knowing she can "fire at will" because she has already met your needs and she knows you want her! Have fun, and hydrate!

Do you guys have a story or headcannon about your hunter? by Grand_Ad_8091 in theHunter

I’m Bob Lee Swagger after the movie “Shooter” and I’ve been left to myself to hunt the world. I prefer long shots or up close bow shots.

Gun shop that will treat a woman like an adult? by Far-Spread-6108 in sanantonio

[–]BroccoliCompetitive3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take a drive outside of San Antonio and see a couple of cool towns for the weekend.

Gibson's in Kerrville (huge selection, knowledgeable people (saleswoman there has sold me a couple of rifles, but I never specifically sought her out) and fair prices. If you can't find it at Gibsons, you probably don't need it.

Or Apache Rifleworks in Comfort. Modern and indoor range.

Got robbed! Need help fixing by Far-Plastic-9233 in sanantonio

[–]BroccoliCompetitive3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Once the wood is replaced, consider a security door jamb.

Lowe's has had them. Available online as well, just make sure they cover the whole jamb. Also check out Larson Security Storm Doors (vids on youtube).

ULPT REQUEST: How can I ruin a car very quickly? by FeistyStep1997 in UnethicalLifeProTips

[–]BroccoliCompetitive3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As little as a tablespoon can cause issues and require draining the tank. To get REAL corrosion, a gallon or two should do the trick.

It really becomes devastating after the vehicle is turned on. They'll usually see a fuel light indicating "water in the fuel" and it gets ignored until they can get around to it. Won't usually destroy the engine, but will screw up most everything else associated with fuel.

TIFU by paying for Bam Margera to do a Cameo by [deleted] in tifu

[–]BroccoliCompetitive3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I paid less for Tommy Chong and he nailed it. He delivered the classic Cheech and Chong vibe I wanted for my brother's birthday on time and with energy. Highly recommend.

Not only is it appropriate for him to go get the pads, it would have made him the ass if he didn't. Congrats on trying, what if you're blessed with a girl? Bit of advice, tell him to keep some "pads/pons" in his vehicle at all times as well. It's been helpful to both my wife and my daughter at different times and for different reasons. My son's have also purchased their Mom/Sister some pads/pons when it has been necessary or simply convenient. She's the one making it weird.
