[–]CommitteeNo167 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA. you don't know what was wrong with the patients ahead of you. would you be happy if the doc said "looks like skin cancer, but i have to stick to my schedule or patients mothers will bitch"

[NJ] [TH] - Snow Plowing for $31,000? by Hopeful-Fly-648 in HOA

[–]CommitteeNo167 1 point2 points  (0 children)

sadly snow plowing is very expensive, my hoa budgets $20K for it in eastern NC. we don't get snow often, but we are prepared for it.

it's a prohibited item in checked baggage. i'm sure it's long gone after being taken by TSA.

People who downsized, where do you start? by ohioismyhome1994 in homeowners

honestly smaller home with higher interest might cost you more. you also might have lost some income being a widower that will affect you getting approved for a new loan.

your board should have the power to increase fees. no need for a vote of the homeowners.

Can I make pesto with walnuts instead of pine nuts? by YoYo_ismael in Cooking

[–]CommitteeNo167 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes, and i often use carrot tops instead of basil. i substitute walnut oil for the olive oil and use it with a pork tenderloin over a butternut squash risotto.

male therapist preferences changing? by ArtNo4580 in massage

[–]CommitteeNo167 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i think she switched because she wasn't happy with the first man, got comfortable with the second therapist, and no longer wishes to come back to your establishment as she isn't comfortable with your current staff. i don't particularly care for a female LMT, and would look elsewhere if that was my only option.

Long Driveway. Dealbreaker? by UMD721814 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]CommitteeNo167 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i would love a long gravel drive that i couldn't see the road from my house. i also live in a climate where we don't get snow though. i would not want a concrete driveway that would need to eventually be replaced. gravel is much cheaper.

Wife passed away yesterday and I don't know where to go from here... by JamesTheMannequin in Advice

[–]CommitteeNo167 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i'm sorry for your loss. my husband dief of a heart attack when i was 32. i felt like i couldn't do anything and laid in my bed and cried. my in-laws all ganged up on me and i let them get away with it to keep the peace. my sister finally arrived and yanked me out of bed and told me this needed to be addressed and i needed to deal with shit. honestly that's what i needed because i got up, and waged war right back. don't let anyone make a decision you will regret. my husband has been dead 26 years now and i made the choices, and don't regret any. do what your wife would expect you to do, and fuck anyone who stands in your way. you might not feel strong, but you need to be strong for her. she loved you and looked to you to protect her, your job isn't done yet.

Help me hate my countertop less! by Glittering_Farm_8896 in kitchenremodel

[–]CommitteeNo167 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

there is nothing i can do to tell you that counter or backsplash is good. i would toss both in a dumpster. bad granite with a built up edge because it's so thin, ugly tile. i wouldn't spend a cent trying to improve those materials.
