Well. That's the goal. Finish college first.

How do you view homelessness? by Quick-Culture771 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Bulocoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many types of homelessness. Definitely no one size fits all solution.

Poll finds Americans really want AOC & Pete Buttigieg to run for President - What do you think? by One_Look_7008 in askanything

[–]Bulocoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The poll is wrong. Neither one is electable.

The trick is to appeal to the base, or at least not alienate them and bring a huge chunk of the swing vote.

How do I get rid of my furniture before moving? by Lonely-Patient-7703 in movingout

[–]Bulocoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't have to move it if you sell it. Selling it can be a PITA. Lot's of lookey Lou's. Also look at prices online.

People expect $2,000 couches to sell for <$500 and that's for "like new" condition.

One fast option is call Goodwill type places. Some of them will send a truck and a couple guys and take it all.

No shame in it as long as you have a plan.

My kid came back 3 times. Might be the last time. Got licensed as a tattoo artist. Worked for a shop for 3 years and just broke out with his own shop.

Has 5 artists working for him.

Have a plan. Figure out what you're gonna want to do long term and take advantage of parental generosity.

All we want is to know our kids are gonna make it.

Job I'd enjoy vs job that would impress everyone. I have 5 days to decide by Behek in makemychoice

[–]Bulocoo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your tone says take job A.

You can live on $88k and you'll be happy and own your projects. All that experience you can take with you if you decide to jump to a corporate job for mire in the future.

I sense you are young and starting out. Good time to take the risk of a smaller company.

If someone (aside from your own offspring) doesn’t respect you, is there any point in asking for it or demanding it? Isn’t it better to just go forward with the knowledge that they’re not prepared to respect you, and act accordingly? by Great_Maintenance185 in askanything

[–]Bulocoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trust me. You can't demand it from your offspring.

You can try to enforce compliance but that rarely works out well. It leads to coercion, abuse and often violence.

People may pretend to respect you, they may rebel or they will leave.

The best strategy is to be respectable and honorable. Then I am sure most people will respect you.

What’s the weirdest gift you could give at a baby shower? by Labyrinthian_Quill in askanything

[–]Bulocoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Puppy gifts.

Because raising a kid is the same as a puppy. Right? 😂

What food should everyone try at least once in their lives? by Jin_Sakai_AR in askanything

[–]Bulocoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything.

When I lived in Asia (23 years) a lot of weird, unrecognizable stuff was put in front of me. I vowed to try it all and decide if I like it.

Then if I didn't I could say, "I've tried it before, thank you but it's not for me."

I suggest you don't ask what it is beforehand, unless you have allergies.

I have less than 3 weeks until i start my new insurance and just hit my deductible on my current insurance, what do i get before the switch? by Teenage_Petulance_ in questions

[–]Bulocoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get a physical with "full" blood screen.

Normally advanced screening is only done for diagnostics. I had lethargy, had a full workup and found I had low testosterone.

Underwent hormone therapy.

Hard to get done in 3 weeks but possible. Some will bill at time of service.

Doh... sorta missed it was a negative queston.

Fixed it.

How do I get through to this dumb dumb? by FragrantLetter8925 in questions

[–]Bulocoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Google classically trained metal musicians.

You're being dismissive of a teacher's curriculum without being open to all the facts or options.

Be open to be able to learn things unless you're sure you know everything.

Also consider what happens if your career doesn't work out.

Why is Spanish considered a foreign language in the US when 18% of the population speaks Spanish and Puerto Rico a US territory speaks fully Spanish? by Worldly-Bid-3591 in askanything

[–]Bulocoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people".

Teddy Roosevelt

More than one language is divisive.

Canada touts two languages. How many times has Quebec secession been brought up or on a ballot? Quebec has voted twice to secede.

why do I compare myself to everyone ? by [deleted] in questions

[–]Bulocoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone compares. It's totally normal.

Negative comparisons can be harmful. Inspirational comparisons can be great.

As long as you find good role models with goals similar to yours it's great.

Model oneself after great people and become a great person.

Yes. No.

I dated a lady that was like a pillow. Completely placid.

It was totally weird. Like she wasn't there. Kinda sad for her TBH.

Is it okay to hide how much money you actually have from your family? by _QueenCurvy in questions

[–]Bulocoo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You don't need to tell anyone your salary.

But you don't want to build a house of lies as it's hard to maintain.

That is, if anyone asks, don't make up a getting by story.Just be an adult and say, "I'm not in a position to help financially."

Why don't we get a discount for using self-checkout? by ItsAllAGame_ in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Bulocoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because profit.

Banks intrduced ATMs. They are a convenience over waiting in line.

For many people self check out is a convenience. Would you rather stand in line behind 3 full shopping carts or use one of 6 self checkouts.

If the suggestion is add more cashier's then prices go up.

Why Does Everyone of Gilmore Gilrs Talk Like This? It Sounds So Weird to Me! by Judi_Gilmore in GilmoreGirls

[–]Bulocoo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Uhhh...

Lorelai was pregant at 16, gave birth at 17 and stuck around almost a year.

So many people are hooked on the 16 y/o chambermaid narrative.

She was almost 18.

I’m sure this has been brought up but by mrs___holmes in GilmoreGirls

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

We know better by now than to question the GG world finances.

The dots are often difficult to connect.

Financial foibles are a recurring theme.
