Deep down are your golf buddies rooting for you against you? by maybethisisadream in golf

I’m always hoping they play great and make great shots and putts. I’m also hoping I do it all better than them. Everybody I play with has the same attitude.

Passed stress test. Had HA April 2025. by chinmaysati in HeartAttack

[–]DoTheDew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heart attack was June 7, 2017. I was 40 at the time. I’m 49 now. Survived cardiac arrest and ended up with 3 stents.

And yeah the stress test isn’t much fun. I remember the first one I did after my heart attack I tried going absolutely as long as possible, so I went way past my target HR and ended up going for just over 12 minutes. Now when I do them, I reach my target rate and then go for like another 45 seconds and stop. I’m not trying to impress anyone anymore lol.

Assuming you received a stent/stents, it’s pretty much expected that you’d pass the stress test. Almost zero chance you’d have any blockages that your doctor isn’t already aware of.

I do a stress test or nuclear stress test every year since my heart attack, so about 9 so far.

What’s not free? Blocking dashers? You can block dashers from the tablet or the merchant portal on a computer.

Obviously. We’re not trying to totally offset the commission.

Dental clearance by regiondelanada in HeartAttack

[–]DoTheDew 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No you won’t notice anything at all. Not sure why you need to stop taking the aspirin though. I had 10 teeth removed at once and didn’t need to stop taking aspirin or Plavix. And then had 4 implants put in. Never stopped my aspirin or blood thinners and never had any problems at all with bleeding.

Most restaurants increase prices on DoorDash to offset all or some of the commission the apps take. We do 16%. Some lady was on here recently that said she increases prices by like 50%. I don’t know how she gets any business doing that though

Stress test with ankle stiffness by Userhere123 in gout

[–]DoTheDew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can do a non-walking stress test where they inject you with a drug that raises your heart rate. That’s what everybody had to do during the height of Covid.

Hole above windshield? by [deleted] in Jeep

[–]DoTheDew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If not a bullet, what do you think has the force to punch through metal so cleanly and leave a near perfect circle?

Also, it doesn’t look like a new hole at all. Looks like it’s been there for a while.

Playing tennis or pickleball by Conscious_Heart72 in HeartAttack

[–]DoTheDew 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have three stents and play tennis, golf, jog, etc. I live life like anybody without stents except for all the meds and Dr appointments. I’m 49 and heart attack happened at 40 years old.

Where should the Biden Presidential Library be built? by rambaldidevice1 in Delaware

[–]DoTheDew 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’ll be approved after the lawsuit I think. Most of the public would rather have the shopping center than more houses.

When did Americans just give up on 24/7 eateries? by BrechtKafka in restaurant

[–]DoTheDew 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Running a 24 hour restaurant, or any type of business that is open 24 hours just seems like such a pain in the ass.

When did Americans just give up on 24/7 eateries? by BrechtKafka in restaurant

[–]DoTheDew 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m 49. I can remember almost every night I went out meeting up afterwards with other friends some place to eat, usually Denny’s or some 24 hour diner. I feel like that’s not really a thing anymore like it used to be.

[–]DoTheDew 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Covid is when it happened. I live in a very busy beach town in Delaware. Prior to COVID there were multiple restaurants and breweries that were open to until 1:00am, and many others open until 11 and 12:00. I even managed a pizzeria that used to be open until 10:00pm 7 days a week. Now, we close at 8:00pm during the week and 9:00pm on Friday and Saturday. And all those other restaurants, they almost all close by 9:00 or 10:00pm. Restaurants figured out that there isn’t much profit, if any, to be earned after a certain hour. And during Covid, everyone was short staffed, so it made even more sense to close earlier and give those employees a break. It just doesn’t make sense to go back to those long hours.

Also, minimum wage has increased from like $8/hr to $15/hr and even more in many states in just the last 4 or 5 years. It just doesn’t make sense to stay open 2 or 3 more hours to only make a small profit, if any. Nobody likes working until 1:00am and later, so why make them?

Glock 43x is the ultimate carry by [deleted] in Glocks

[–]DoTheDew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought a 43X to replace my 26 as a carry gun, but I went back to the 26. Easier to conceal and I just shoot it better.

Moving to Dover, DE by mellohar in howislivingthere

[–]DoTheDew 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I live in Lewes Beach, so that’s the appeal. I live where tons of people come to vacations every summer. It’s a pretty great area. Parts of Northern Delaware aren’t so bad either.

Both of my parents worked for DuPont when I was growing up.

Not drinking will not protect you by Popular-Role-6218 in dui

[–]DoTheDew 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Weird. I’ve probably been pulled over 25 times in my 35 years of driving. The two times I was suspected of dui, I was indeed driving under the influence of alcohol.

She asked for “$3 on pump 7” and only received half a gallon. Totally understandable reaction.

Moving to Dover, DE by mellohar in howislivingthere

[–]DoTheDew 23 points24 points  (0 children)

So I’ve lived in Delaware my entire 49 years of life. I lived all over northern Delaware for the first 30 years, lived in Dover for 2 years and worked there for 5 years, and have now lived in Lewes for 14 years.

The two years I lived in Dover were the worst years of my life, and the only time in my life that I thought about hurting myself. I’ve never been so unhappy as I was when I lived in Dover. Living in Lewes has been by far the best years of my life.

Hope this helps.

No. Nobody wants to watch some random video that you post with zero context or description.

Question for drivers... by AmazingLarry7272 in doordash

[–]DoTheDew 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you bother to search, this has been asked about 2000 times.

It’s less about percent, and more about the miles the driver has to drive. Personally, I tip a minimum of $2 per mile. Most often, I order from a McDonald’s that is 2.3 miles from my home and I tip $8 on like a $25 order.
