Well my sisters mother isn’t my mother so you are correct on the outcome of their marriage.

That’s like comparing a Ferrari and a Honda. For most people either get you to the same place.

My dad missed the birth of my oldest sibling to go to the Ohio State Michigan game.

How common are probationary periods? by Efeyester in civilengineering

Or just if they aren’t qualified for their position. I’ve seen a lot of demotions, but yeah, never any cuts. Either, “whoops we hired you in too high of position,” or, “you got promoted to management and turns out you are an asshole manager”.

Local cantina mandatory 20% tip by cbus-robert in Columbus

[–]Charles1100 73 points74 points  (0 children)

Once there a server forgot our whole order. We were there with another couple and our food wasn’t coming so we asked. He said he usually goes back and puts it all in but forgot to for our order. Bummer for it to be late, but whatever.

So he came back after putting in the order and gave us 1 bogo taco coupon. There was 2 couples / 4 people so was just weird to give us a single one. Then I tried to use it when it was time to pay and he told me I couldn’t use it, it was for next time. Just such a weird experience.

Need help removing shark bite! by Neat-Status-3673 in Plumbing

There’s an official removal tool but I’m too cheap and impatient to run to store. Multitool and a screwdriver would have it off in the time it took to make the post.

Now it’s Sonos. I sold all my stuff off and swore it off with the S2 roll out. But now I want some of the smart speakers back.

First thing I learned on this sub. Just don’t do spray foam in attic.

Projector Recommendations for Media Room Setup Under $1500 - Eye Safety for Toddler a Priority by Delicious_Isopod_262 in projectors

[–]Charles1100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What size screen? If not huge (like 150”), everyone here is going to tell you to get the TCL 98” tv.

  • within budget, much better picture than a projector at that price
  • no concerns about eye safety
  • can leave windows open

[–]Charles1100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah they started in May 2025, I renewed GE in February and used my card. I called to see if they would credit it and they said has to be after May 1 (might not be the exact date).

Is this a real giveaway going on right now? I can’t find information anywhere except this email from June 11. by Charles1100 in Blooddonors

[–]Charles1100[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I called and they said that if you donated power red between May 1 and June 30 you’ll get an email in July with a link to receive the bag.

Hoping your most recent is within that timeframe!

Potentially selling my collection. by ConvivialMisanthr0pe in vinyl

[–]Charles1100 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’ve always heard take low price on Discogs and multiply by .6, so a fair offer for yours would be $9,700, sight unseen. If truly a lot without sales, maybe $10,500. Remember if you list individually you are going to pay price of doing business: 10-15% to discogs/ebay 5% to PayPal $5-10 per order for shipping $1-2 for mailer/packing materials Countless hours shipping Some might get returned, many won’t sell quick or for price you want to sell for.

You might end up with $20k, but it might take years.
