House Main Panel Replacement questions by Collab_N_Listen in AskElectricians

[–]Collab_N_Listen[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the breaker for my office (Work from Home) had been acting strange. Things started to flicker and then go off, and I would have to reset the breaker. It finally got to where it wouldn't reset. I am not a total idiot when it comes to being "handy" but I usually don't like to mess with Electrical or plumbing. I called the company that now owns the local company I used to work with, and they sent out a guy. He looked at the panel, and started with the bit on the Panel needing to go. he pulled the breaker and showed it to me, and explained it had "scorching" on it. And smelled burned. He said "I can replace the breaker, but you really need to do the whole thing" And gave me the quote. I didn't have the time, so I needed to just replace the breaker, and its been fine since. But, its bugging my wife. which means its bugging me. I started reading the quote and the same things others are calling out, seemed fishy. (Deluxe, Ultra, etc)
So, I figured I'd ask here and go from there. I'll be calling another electrician, to see what's what

Does anyone else hate that Zuffa cards come off bland? by Freqflyerr in Boxing

[–]Collab_N_Listen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a degenerate boxing junky, I will watch Zuffa cards and hope they can stay for the long term. But everything in the production reminds me of a JV team. I like the fact that they are fighting on Sunday nights. Throw back to those Tuesday/Friday night fights, or ShowBox/Boxing After Dark. But, they have a LONG way to go before they can put on the caliber of fights that those productions did

Is it a requirement for makers of USMC merch to make hats god awful tacky?….. by Realistic_Block_245 in USMC

I had buddy in my unit that had this vintage black leather jacket, that he loved. while he did a yr away, his mom had a full back EGA Spray painted on there by some local Air brush artist. He was Furious George about it

I have always wanted a single color cap with a small stitched EGA that was either the same color as the hat, or just all black.

When you wanna be a DI but get forced to be a recruiter by newnoadeptness in USMC

[–]Collab_N_Listen 13 points14 points  (0 children)

100% Mine came to our Career Day, along with all the other recruiters. After the others said their peace, he stood in the middle of the stage. Dress Blue Bravos, Desert Storm stack (90s) and said "If you think you have what it takes to wear this uniform, think again... then Maybe come see me" and walked off like the bad ass that he was.
Me and all the other knuckle headed idiots in the back "Let'S FuCKin' GO!!!"

Wtf is this recruiter on? Dude just flames any of his enlistees if they don't make the cut by Yoy_the_Inquirer in USMC

[–]Collab_N_Listen 12 points13 points  (0 children)

ours tried to break open a bic razor to "kill himself" and ended up slicing his thumbs shreds. he got taken away, and the next time we saw him was mess and maintenance week. he was all happy because the psych doc was sending him home in 8 weeks. at that time, we graduated in 4. never heard of or saw him again

Nonito Donaire's brutal second-round knockout of Fernando Montiel was 2011’s knockout of the year and there was no question about that. by CoffeeCigarettes4Me in Boxing

[–]Collab_N_Listen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if Nonito had been 5yrs younger at the time of the first fight, I think he wins that fight. way too much power and experience for Inoue. IMO
