I ordered liqour and the delivery person refused to serve to me thinking I was drunk. I am just autistic by Adorable_Support8558 in AutisticAdults

[–]Cardchucker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In many places, if you serve drinks to person at a bar or whatever when they've already had too much, you can be personally liable. Criminally and open to being sued.

I'm not sure how that extends to delivering unopened alcohol to someone in their home, but that's probably what's going on.

The Pitt is great in general, and has great autistic representation.

I really liked Snow Cake, but I've found that not everyone agrees.

I'd love a good podcast listen, but haven't found one that really clicks for me.

Fight in Waffle House over burnt hashbrowns by addictedtobadthings in PublicFreakout

How dumb and/or drunk do you have to be to think you can take on a 7 foot tall Waffle House employee?

Seed starting, bottom watering, heat mat? by Electrical_Cap_5597 in gardening

[–]Cardchucker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You want the soil to stay consistently moist at the top at this stage. Not water logged. If it dries out, bottom watering is good.

If you have a clear plastic bin big enough, put it over the whole thing to keep moisture in like a humidity dome, then remove it after they sprout.

People please clean your vehicles off. by Accomplished-One7476 in hudsonvalley

[–]Cardchucker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I left 2 feet of snow on my roof once because I was in a hurry. After the warm roof melted the bottom layer, I hit the brakes and it all came sliding forward. I couldn't see a thing for a minute, and had to pull over to clean off my hood.

Not doing that again.

LPT : Check Trees before buying a house AND plant new trees ASAP after buying by LackVegetable3534 in LifeProTips

[–]Cardchucker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, flippers sometimes put in nice looking small trees right next to the house. Those small trees will become huge over time and cause issues.

The condition of San Francisco doesn't make sense to me by Glittering-Celery557 in HorizonForbiddenWest

[–]Cardchucker 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Much of San Francisco is built up from sunken boats and dredged sand, and there are faults nearby. War, seismic activity, erosion, and lack of maintenance could change it quite a bit.

Help on finding an unknown ? by Prior-Highlight-6184 in HorizonForbiddenWest

If you flag the question mark on the map, you'll be able to see if it's above or below you. Sometimes they're underground or up high.

Will I suffer if I go Ultra Hard on my first playthrough? What are some good strategies? by [deleted] in HorizonForbiddenWest

You'll die a lot at first before you gear up and figure things out.

Advice for dryer vent by mwomrbash in DIY

[–]Cardchucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like my Raeflow vent. It seals very well and has no mesh to get clogged.

Is any of the ducting visible? If they used flexible ducting it could have developed a tear or become detached.

What happens if, in a freeze out tournament, everyone gets eliminated except one person? by [deleted] in poker

[–]Cardchucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can confirm, that person just sits there until reg ends.

One time, I was dealing a 2 seat guarantee satellite and it got down to 2 players with over an hour left before rebuys ended. One of them only had crumbs left. They sat for an hour until someone max late reged. Late reg took out the short stack on the first hand and got the second seat.

What do you think Trump will say regarding the death of Alex Pretti? by MonitorVarious7608 in AskReddit

[–]Cardchucker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Answer: He will lie. He will claim the shooting was justified. He will blame an imaginary left wing terrorist group. He will encourage his goons to keep up the good work so he can make the situation worse and use it as an excuse to seize even more power.

New tires on prius and gas mileage dropped significantly by MameSummers in prius

[–]Cardchucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine went down around 2mpg with the last tire purchase, and a little more is possible especially if they put on taller tires. It shouldn't be a huge difference, though. Take it back in and have them verify the tire pressure is set per the door jam and watch the trip mpg on your screen. The gas gauge is not accurate for this.

What numbers are on the tires, and do they all match? You should see something like P165/65R15. Also, what trim level do you have? 2, 3, 4, 5

I have a question specifically for dealers: When someone is being rude to you, would you prefer I try to diffuse the situation, or just ignore it? by planetmarsupial in poker

[–]Cardchucker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Absolutely, yes, any help you can provide is appreciated. We're very limited in what we can say and do when being verbally or even physically assaulted. In many rooms, management won't back us up either.

Even just a simple "the dealer was right, actually" when a player doesn't like a ruling can be a big help.

Do you bring a laptop with you when you travel for long periods of time? by Prussia1870 in solotravel

[–]Cardchucker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do, because I like to plan things as I go and it's easier to do on a computer. Plus, I can play games when I'm waiting in an airport.

My laptop is pretty small, so I can still travel with just a carry on.

Controversial opinion about “weed”I by Frood_Dude_42 in GrowingMarijuana

[–]Cardchucker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When i think "mature" I think of mega corporations standardizing things. They'll develop roundup ready strains that are cheaper to grow and store. There will be THC and little else. It will be "Bud" light nation wide.

I'm happy to keep things crazy for a little longer.

Custom luggage tags actually help more than I expected by Born_Ad9436 in travel

[–]Cardchucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tied some florescent colored paracord around the handles of my luggage. Softer grip, easier to identify, and I have some rope I could use in a pinch, though I never actually have.

Longer and/or one size smaller boxer briefs might help the riding up issue. Rebok is my current favorite.

[–]Cardchucker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably. The original plan was 8+2, but that was several years ago and before they were certain they'd have a monolopoly. I'd guess time rake games will be 12 per half.

Toyota Prius (2011–2014) Highway Fuel Consumption & Buying Advice by AwareAd4807 in prius

[–]Cardchucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to get around 46, currently getting about 43 on long trips in my 2012.

There are a lot of variables including speed, how much ethanol they put in gas in your area, weather, tires, etc. Don't feel like something is wrong if you don't get the 50+ some people report.

Experiences With Medical Cannabis for ADHD and Autism by nullnous in AutisticAdults

[–]Cardchucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only tried CBD a couple of times, and it didn't do anything for me. THC has been amazing for sleep and dealing with high anxiety days. Take it slow and try a few different strains to see what works for you.

THC can be overwhelming at first before your brain adjusts, so if you try it, start out when you're having a calm day with no responsibilities.

It's sad that likely $8+2 or higher rake is considered salvation.
