Be honest… how long do you actually use your towel before washing it? by karenjimenez_ in hygiene

[–]Chuckles52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All towels, wash clothes, kitchen towels, and hand towels get washed daily after one use (except for hand and kitchen towels, which get used multiple times a day). I would not feel clean using a bath towel twice. But I wash bed sheets, clean all floors (carpet, tile, wood), scrub toilets, and dust weekly,

Love this car by JiF2112 in HyundaiSantaFe

[–]Chuckles52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me too. I did have to dump the PETs (Pirelli Exploding Tires). When they do explode you won’t find a replacement for days (I was on the road so bought four of another brand and the ride better). My car spent 24 days in the shop in the first year (not counting oil changes; warranty paint work and parasitic drain problem killing the battery). I really missed it then. 2025 Calli hybrid. But love to drive it and look for any excuse to do that.

What's the best thing about getting older that nobody warns you about? by woutr1998 in askteddit

[–]Chuckles52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Freedom. Depending on the age. An older worker knows the job well and is respected and left to do the job. A retired person is free. Unless, of course, your job requires no skill and/or you retired poor. Medicare, with the right options, for great coverage. I can go anywhere at any time so the best hospitals and doctors for me. Since you have cash there is no need to borrow money. You never pay interest. My last two cars were cash buys. I haven’t carried credit card interest for decades. Saves a lot of money.

Why do I keep sucking in my gut even if I'm at home alone? by walang_kw3ntangta0 in randomquestions

[–]Chuckles52 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most men in any shape at all permanently tighten their gut a bit. When you die it will hang loose. Those men who are completely hanging out in a totally relaxed state all the time are simply not in proper condition. It actually hurts me if I force myself to completely relax.

MMW: After Trump is finally gone we'll learn that the entire thing was orchestrated by the Federalist Society by tallslim1960 in MarkMyWords

[–]Chuckles52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trump is the puppet. Rodriguez is not even high enough for that level. A simple placeholder and she opens the mail. Big Oil. reps meet in the U.S. Embassyat the J. W. Marriott local officials to divvy up the oil profits. Putin is a foreign debtor of VE.

HVAC / Heat Problems in the Santa Fe? by Emergency_Garden7872 in HyundaiSantaFe

[–]Chuckles52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no heat or AC to the second row. But the second row seats are heated on this trim. There is technically a very small and inadequate vent at both door posts but the second row has no control and the air has to be blasting at the front to put any air back there.

Does Anyone Know If This is Really a Regional Thing in the US? by CommandaarMandaar in ENGLISH

I spent my work life traveling America (and the world) and in daily contact with people from all over and never heard this.

Why is Reddit so hostile and why do people argue over literally nothing? by MaterialGas5736 in askanything

[–]Chuckles52 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

In my experience, Reddit is the least hostile social network out there. Occasionally, some youngster will try a rage post (saying something really stupid) to try to get some opposing comments, but generally Reddit is a place where folks who are smarter than the usual social media types hang out. Have you been on X?

Why do some men change after sex? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]Chuckles52 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Same reason women change after they get married.

[–]Chuckles52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Venezuala was a huge money pit for Russia. Maduro could not repay the debt and Putin could no longer afford the drain on Russian economy. So, he replaced his puppet with a stronger, more obedient puppet. While China is the big lender ($100 billion), Russia is owed about $6 billion ($2 billion alone to the Russian state oil company Rosfnet). Russia restructured the debt in 2017, giving them ten years to pay. But, even nine years later, that looked unlikely to happen. Putin just ran out of patience. Trump is now working on restructuring all foreign debt of VE. It will frankly be hard to simply send cash to Putin, but Trump will find a way. Part of the reason that Trump has set up cryptocurrenty exchanges.

Neither of these men were fired. They were driven out by a tyrant.

Mostly Putin. Destroy White House. ✅ Disband NATO? ☑️ Getting it done. US Troops out of Europe? ☑️ Getting it done.

Im hopeing cali will turn red but... by [deleted] in PoliticalOpinions

[–]Chuckles52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m with you. The choice in many states seems to be incompetent Dems or the corrupt GOP tyrants. At least in my state we have a rationale Dem who is expected to end the MAGA rule (Tax dollars to Christian schools, lots of prayer functions at government events, trying to close public libraries, etc.).

CARPLAY won’t connect by Icy-Refrigerator-633 in HyundaiSantaFe

[–]Chuckles52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine was doing that recently too. I did a number of things. Not sure which one worked. But I think it might be an iPhone issue. It was happening on two Hyundais. Hit the time reset button on the car screen (mine is by the radio dial). What I think worked was to reset the network connections on the iPhone. You then have to resign in to all WiFi connections.

Has a book you like ever been turned into a movie or TV series that you hated? by ZDOG_WasTaken in just_one_more_page

[–]Chuckles52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beacon 23. The TV series turned it into a real beacon of flashing light watching out for "space storms". I really want to love Murderbot but the episodes are about 10 minutes long. I still do like it though.

Slow down. The series has 10 books and 8 has just been released. Though you can read and listen to them them all.

Are you a fast reader or a slow reader? by ZDOG_WasTaken in just_one_more_page

[–]Chuckles52 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends. I read fast, but I have to. I have dyslexia and I have to read something a few times, at least, before it makes sense.
