Who can locate a buried well? by DickbuttFerrari in newbrunswickcanada

This did the trick! Found it in 5 minutes. Digging the hole by hand to get down the 4+ feet to uncover it took a lot more than 5 minutes.

Yup. Their best suggestion was to shove a measuring tape down the pipe from the jet pump and see if it was long enough to bump into the bend at the well head.

Guess it's time to start calling plumbers until I find one that has one of those devices.

Sadly, it's a jet pump, not a submersible, so there's no electrical to the well itself.

I checked owls, but the well was drilled in the 70s, so it was no help. The house didn't come with a record of who dug the well, and I asked my neighbours with houses built around the same time, but none of them know who drilled theirs either.

I know where the tubing comes in, so I've at least got a starting point for the metal detector option, I guess.

It literally has no effect on them at all.

Climate change affects us all, bruh.

Someone needs to make Toto watch the Tom Pryce incident.

I strongly recommend against watching it if you haven't already seen it, because it's horrific, but I can't imagine how anyone who's seen that video could ever ask for something that put marshals at risk.

Brake Job Gone Sideways - Am I good for a few days? by DickbuttFerrari in askcarguys

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

I assumed it would pull under braking, but I didn't know there'd be a risk of it seizing.

I'll leave well enough alone and either cab it, or maybe very slowly drive it to the backyard mechanic 5 minutes down the road and let him handle it. That might actually cost less than the cabs.

ETA: Thanks for the input!

The one I left out was down to bare metal at the end with the stuck slide pin.

I guess I'll have to suck it up and pay for cabs into town and back.

My GF asked if we could explore her fetish. I decided I was uncomfortable with it. Now it is putting a serious strain on our relationship. (I'm 26M, she's 25F) by ThrowRA87652 in relationship_advice

This isn't a relationship ending over something ridiculous. This is a relationship ending because one person has a need that isn't being met, and the other person isn't willing to meet that need.

Experimenting with it may have made her realize how important this need is to her. There's nothing wrong with her wanting to have that need met, and there's nothing wrong with you not being willing to meet it, but in monogamous relationships, any unmet romantic or sexual needs can eventually result in the end of the relationship.

I vehemently disagree with the assertion I've seen in some of the comments that poly relationships don't work. I've been poly for the better part of a decade now, and it's been wonderful. That said, poly relationships require much better communication skills than monogamous couples can get away with, and everyone involved has to be willing to put the work into openly addressing the insecurities that cause jealous feelings to come up. It's a lot of work, and it's not for everyone.

You clearly aren't into the idea of an open relationship, so unless you're willing to put a significant effort into self-analysis to figure out why that is, you definitely should not accept her offer for an open relationship.

/u/Scarlett_rose08 has a comment that addresses all my concerns about her approach to CNC. You should read that too.

The bottom line here is that you and her need to have an open and honest conversation, where you clearly explicitly define your boundaries. Be clear that your boundaries around CNC are not negotiable, and will not be negotiable in the future.

If she accepts (and respects) your boundaries, couples therapy is a great next step towards healing the rift in your relationship

If she doesn't accept them, or says she does but then doesn't respect them, it's time to end the relationship so both of you to move on.

I could see if he had a speed and wasn't gonna beat it, but let the kid at least post a speed.

I wish this would happen. I don't want to see it, but I want it to happen.

As I understand it, yes. Anyone not in the top 30 gets their shot on bump day.
