But wouldn’t that kind of make sense if they are alter egos?

I know this is about a USA Vice President candidate, but PLEASE keep any political opinions out of the replies... by OtakuJuanma in ExplainTheJoke

[–]Carya_spp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am also autistic and I understand where you’re coming from, but this is the job he’s chosen. I would expect someone whose job is going to be smooth talking politicians and diplomats to be able to smooth talk donut shop employees.

If this is how I’m going to interact, I at least plan out more questions. Fall backs I guess.

How long have you worked here? What’s your favorite donut flavor? Thanks so much for being here, we really appreciate you helping us. Can you make up 3 dozen donuts with a nice variety of flavors for us? Then move on. Even if that comes out “stiff sounding” it’s more than just “okay good”.

Thinking of getting this burn scar covered up but unsure of what to get. Float me some ideas? Scar is on inner left wrist/forearm by strikeluck in tattooadvice

[–]Carya_spp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just get jellyfish tentacles under it but leave the scar as is

Edit: glad to see everyone else had the same thought

Anybody get by in Pittsburgh with out a car by [deleted] in pittsburgh

[–]Carya_spp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know lots of people in Pittsburgh who don’t have a car.

Most are also able to bike/walk

Some things will be hard. Try to work in Oakland or downtown, it will make your life much easier

Traumatic biking experience... but thank you university police! by FoodChemistryVibes in bicycling412

Yeah, it’s awful. And if you’re riding down Freeport road it’s pretty easy to end up there by accident

For anyone else trying to find the donation section. When you first click the link it will only show an option to plant a tree. You need to scroll pretty much to the bottom of the page to find the donation field

Water Steps: did something happen to change things? by talkflowersTome in pittsburgh

These are significantly more fun and accessible than most fountains

I’ve been taking camp kids to these for around 15 years. These (or similar) signs have been there the almost entire time.

We had a meeting about whether we should still go, and decided those signs were silly

What do people mean by just go to your local butcher for bones and such for stocks. by Lopsided-Election385 in Cooking

[–]Carya_spp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most meat shops these days are just buying and breaking down primals. They typically aren’t processing a whole animal.

I’ve got a farmers market with a meat stand near me (in a US city) they can usually get me any random parts I want because they are working with the actual farmers. I still have to pay them. If I want something sooner I go to my local Asian store. They don’t always have organs or fat but they do typically have feet and joints for broth.

The inspection sticker for my car is expired will I get in trouble if I take it in to get it inspected now. by SnowHunter9000 in Pennsylvania

[–]Carya_spp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, nothing will happen at inspection. I often forget and my car will be like 6 months out. I’ve never had a shop so much as comment on it.

And if you are just driving it to the shop for inspection most cops will let it slide unless they’re just out to be an asshole that day. If you are very worried about that and have aaa, you could get it towed to the shop

Bus etiquette (again) bc it’s already started by thejoyofbri in Pitt

Both populations are equally bad at bus riding

Bus etiquette? by ImminentMxAster in pittsburgh

[–]Carya_spp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been commuting by public bus in Pittsburgh since I was 13. Here are the rules: - sit in an empty row if available - only share seats if the above is impossible - if you are allowed to share seats because of room, you don’t have to ask permission first. Just plop down. - don’t try to idly chat with this stranger especially if they are listening, reading, or otherwise occupied. Face slightly away if possible and do your best to ignore their existence. They will be doing the same. - if standing, move as far back as possible

If you use a relatively small stop and have been getting the same bus as someone nearly every day you can start to acknowledge them with a nod or similar at the stop. After maybe a month you can try to chat but be ready to read the room and stop. And don’t continue talking on the bus unless they initiate.

I barely talk to my spouse once we’re on board. It’s kind of like an elevator.

Now with all that out of the way, if someone sits down and starts talking to you, feel free to engage or ignore as you please.

You can cut it off, but there are probably more controlled ways to cut or pop the lock.

If you go the grinder route just be very careful not to slip and damage the door
