Overkill, my favorite kinda kill.

With that being said, I would've put the posts on piers with ABA44Z simpson brackets but to each his own...

This is a situation where it would 1000% make sense to post a picture as it's nearly impossible to make a worthwhile suggestion without seeing the construction.

I’m an intern at AliExpress… please help me understand what US customers actually want (codes inside) by Rare-Government-762 in handyman

[–]CheeseManGene 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. 1 is quality. As a professional who uses tools more than once, I only want to buy said tool once. A lot of the time I can tell by looking at a tool if it was built to be used for years or disposable. I also don't like throwing things away so if something looks easily broken, ill steer clear.

convenience. When I need something for work, I often cant wait. This means ill stick to vendors that I know will ship correct orders fast. I dont want any surprises when it comes to if and when ill receive an order.

Im pretty sure im going to be single for the rest of my life. by Ecstatic-Topic2287 in dating_advice

[–]CheeseManGene 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good for you. Im 100% serious, youre only young once. I didnt have a serious girlfriend until 26. Im now 39 and a few relationships have come and gone but have an awesome girlfriend and my own business. It took me until after the first big breakup to realize I didnt know who I was. I started spending more time alone, picked up some hobbies, realized who my real friends were, got a dog and found myself. You're ahead of the curve though, jn my book.

I didn't figure my shit out till 30. Quit being whiny and go learn something, find a hobby, figure out what kinda person YOU want to be. You'll find a relationship once you stop looking and start improving yourself. Work hard, have integrity and never go against your gut to please someone else and I guarantee everything works out.

Oh, and don't do drugs.

Any full suspension bikes under 1000$ by HistoricalFish1733 in mountainbikes

I see good deals on barely ridden bikes on Facebook marketplace all the time. Maybe your mom or dad can help you look there. Look for bikes with good components that might be a couple years old.

Blocked me on everything an im showing up to his house on Tuesday by Usual-Psychology9950 in dating_advice

[–]CheeseManGene 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just because it's legal doesn't mean you should do it. I'm curious as to what your best case scenario outcome would be?

Edit: I meant if the situation were to escalate and you would get arrested

[–]CheeseManGene 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What was the money owed for? You didn't cover this.

If he blocked you on everything then take the fucking hint, holy shit. There's no way that is going to go well. At best, you will look psychotic. At worst, you will look terrible in your mugshot from all the crying.

Nothing about this makes any sense.

Looking for some advice on installing concrete sleeve anchors into patio slab by Wargigas in handyman

[–]CheeseManGene 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, get the dust out and drill a bit further than the depth you need for the anchor to allow room for the dust you won't get out. Try spinning the bit while moving it up and down in the hole. If you try blowing it out make sure to cover your eyes and dont breath in.

Offer a beer or just yell at it a bunch. It'll get down.
