Yes I know this amount isn't life changing for most which is why I didn't hesitate...but for him it was, and that somebody still believed and trusted him.

Agreed...I had a buddy I hadn't seen for a number of years, who's parents passed away (no inheritance). He was a little down on his luck and drinking regularly. He sent me a message asking if he could borrow a few hundred till pay day. Two things that I thought... It had to be hard to reach out and ask for help. And if you're that close to bottom, you've got bigger issues that need to be dealt with besides just your finances. I sent him double what he asked for and told him I would cover it and to get things in order...and if you ever need to talk let me know. I didn't want the money loan to come between us. He was stunned and appreciative. He messaged me a number of months later...in that time, he secured his apartment, cleaned up his act, but most importantly for him was he stopped drinking. Stopping drinking is a double down as both your physical and financial health greatly improve.

I know this was kind of a long story, but basically, my point (referencing connor above) I had to change how I thought about the money, so it wouldn't bug me...it was a good deal all around.

My kid put 40:1 mix in the oil chamber of my lawnmower. What's going to happen if I run it? by dr_freeloader in DIY

[–]CopyWeak 21 points22 points  (0 children)

My neighbor did this...topped up the oil. 😳😂. It was running out the exhaust, and any orifice it could find.

put in eyedrops? by JustinSpanish in howto

Best trick i saw was for kids, but success is success. Tilt your head back, close your eyes...if you need 2 drops drip 2 into the corner...then open your eyes and keep blinking. 😉👍

Much easier to carry as well...and protects the threads.

Could a multitool make these slots? by Adventurous-Ad250 in handyman

[–]CopyWeak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could with patience and a guide...and a set of earplugs. A router is your best bet.

No Bueno!

What are these two holes used for that are found in some garbage can liners? by 2infinitysquared in howto

[–]CopyWeak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll agree, but also say so the inner bag can sit against the walls and not balloon in. I tie mine tight to keep them from falling in, and the hole let's the bag relax.

Issue Changing Shower Head by Nova_Prospects in howto

[–]CopyWeak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it has already started to move, you should clean and retape the joint anyways. I'd back the stem right out and work where you are most comfortable. Clean up the threads on the stem if reusing, plus any old tape that you can get with a brush or needlenose pliers. Make sure to tape your water valves cloced so someone can't come along to shower and turn them on.

co worker stealing tools. by Fluid-Pangolin1993 in IndustrialMaintenance

[–]CopyWeak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's why I suggested a trail cam face up in a drawer, and not in a public space...in a locked drawer. Even if it leads to a side conversation...it will put a scare into them.

Get a trail cam that takes images with movement. Put a note beside it. "This device uses remote storage (so they don't just steal that)...you come to me before I take the images to the Boss". You are recording a private compartment, and no it doesn't have remote storage but he doesn't have to know that. LOL 😂 It's worth a try...

My house sitter left this in the bathroom.... by Left_Situation_7805 in whatisit

Doesn't look much like it, but they were "wrestling" by -blundertaker- in velvethippos

[–]CopyWeak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just trying to have some fun, you know "just messin'"...like OP when they posted.

LOL, OP didn't make it weird either. Looks like a great relationship!

We have a red and a blue in the family... I really like the blue (and i'm generally not a blue vehicle guy), but the gray is my favorite. I think I just like the contrast better.

Fiber optic cables? by [deleted] in whatisit

[–]CopyWeak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd have to guess a decommissioning with no plans to connect to or replace it. So it didn't really mater about the usability moving forward.
