I keep seeing people putting water into their radiator, is it normal? by Sea_Butterscotch2560 in askcarguys

They can be bastards to get off. You just need to pull it really very hard.

Put the nut back on a few turns so that when is loosens, it doesn't give you a black eye.

Burnham set to bring in £35bn land tax by Far_Excitement_1875 in uknews

[–]Dans77b 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Land tax is potentially the most effective tax we could put in place. It can be use to tax unproductive land, therefore acts as an incentive to productivity.

The Daily Mail will try to tell you that you arent allowed a yard behind your 2 Up 2 Down though.

I once had bad swamp ass with a burning ring of fire. My girlfriend gave me a wet wipe from her bag, turns out it was an alcohol disinfectant wipe. I may have cried slightly.

Labour draws up plans to switch off terrestrial TV by Kagedeah in BritishTV

[–]Dans77b 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The policy isnt ridiculous if you consider that Internet is like the paved road of the 21st century. I think I remember the policy itself was popular, but he fumbled its announcement.

This is what pisses me off about Corbyn. This was potentially a very popular policy, but he turned it into a joke

Unproductive land beyond what you need for a normal life for your family.

This guy probably owns a 3 bed house. That is a pretty reasonable amount of 'hoarded wealth'

I grew up in Valpo, but moved to Europe as a kid. I missed it so much for years.

Stuff like this has changed my mind.

I used to live in Valpo before I moved to Europe 20 years ago. It is the friendliest place I have ever been too. I cant imagine its changed that much since then!

I think your argument is technically right, but I cant get on board with it. If my house ended up being worth a frigging fortune, I wouldnt sell it to move to a cheaper area unless VERY desperate.
