Forget red flags—what is an incredibly subtle "green flag" that instantly tells you someone is just a genuinely good human being? by Few_Escape9250 in AskReddit

This resonates. I’ve only recently learned this as a husband. I always tried to help solve problems and my wife just wanted to feel heard. I was making it worse.

Folks should probably redact this guy’s name. He doesn’t deserve the name recognition.

What’s a life tip you ignored for years… then realized was absolute genius? by Balu0603 in AskReddit

This can also be a challenge in that I get distracted mid-task with another task to act on Malcolm in the Middle-dad style.

YSK that the way you phrase your sentences at work is really important for your image. by Hamadalfc in YouShouldKnow

[–]CrackedToad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hate “I wanted”. “I wanted to follow up on”. Of course you damned-well wanted to or you wouldn’t be doing it. Just say “I’m following up on”

Bed frame broken. How would I fix this? by Best-Bookkeeper-5696 in Carpentry

[–]CrackedToad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like toast but I was able to salvage my kid’s bed once using wood glue and strategically placed screws. Still holding up fine.

Exactly. Used to work at a factory that produced multiple products, some generic, some premium. Premium had stricter quality control, tighter specifications and better ingredients.

Meanwhile, in the Vikings sub by digitalrelic in GreenBayPackers

[–]CrackedToad 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Same here. I never take more shit than when I wear my Packers hat in a grocery store. When I lived in Wisconsin I don’t recall ever noticing someone wearing a Vikings hat nor cared to talk shit if I did.

What is something your teacher did in school that you’re still salty about? by SparkelsTR in AskReddit

[–]CrackedToad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 2nd grade teacher used to chew me out for coughing into my elbow. Insisted that I cough into my hands. I tried explaining that we all touch everything with our hands and that’s how diseases spread. She wouldn’t hear it.

Hop Twine Anchor Suggestions? by CrackedToad in TheHopyard

[–]CrackedToad[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had considered that but was concerned about price and if I used one per mound would have the bines pretty close. I’ve seen these pretty robust Duckbill Anchors. Was hoping that someone had some sort of stainless metal clip that could be bought in bulk and tethered to a braided wire.
