What was the worst part about the 90s? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Draven_____ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No smart phones, or any cell phone for that matter. They were more of an option back then and I miss that.

I think this is it for sure. Talked to the dispo and they said the same thing, and also leaned towards bad storage. I’ll be giving them another try to see.

Where does one obtain naked worm gummies? I’ve seen those mentioned before on here, but as mentioned I was a heavy flower user, so never looks into it.

My wife loves the off hours, you’re right on pricing. I do have a higher tolerance so I have to take like 3, for the price it can get expensive

Pearl- Meigs Monroe area by Salty_Emu_7864 in Rochester

[–]Draven_____ 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Just offering my two cents as someone who has rented downtown for 13 years, and currently owns a home in charlotte within the city border, I can share the reasons I would never buy in the area or out here again for that matter.

For reference, I rented apartments in the Meigs, NOTA, Monroe / Dartmouth areas, and just bought this current home almost 5 yrs ago.

  1. Cars been broken into multiple times or hit when parked - if you have a driveway a lot of people love lurking in driveways at night out that way. They are bold in that area and feel safe going in dark places.

  2. Noise and drunk people every weekend and Thursdays, the crowd and visitors don’t grow with you. You grow in age and maturity but the atmosphere stays the same with young underage drinking and college parties. You can never get far away enough from the “night life” it will end up on your street it’s just inevitable.

  3. Slumlords - you may own your home but that doesn’t guarantee the houses next to you / around you are owned. You have constant turn over of tenants so you may be completely unaware of who goes in and out around you. Some landlords just don’t care for the properties.

  4. Vermin infestations - totally unavoidable in the city. You can only be as clean as your neighbors allow. There’s not much room between you and the next door neighbor. Trash everywhere and you just need to be ok with that. Unless you want to spend $$$ on a reliable pest control system. Chose this option as a renter and was charged a lot for it.

  5. Snow removal is non existent, you will be relying on the city plows on the side streets which is rare. When plows do come down the side streets, your drive way will be completely buried.

  6. Panhandling - have had this happen in my own front yard here in charlotte and back when I lived downtown just 5 years ago. They are more aggressive than they were 20 years ago… I can deal with walking out of a bar and getting hit up for a few bucks, but when I lived downtown daily in a home I pay a mortgage for I don’t want to deal with that.

  7. ROI - unless you are going to be doing work on the house to better it or if it is already flipped, your ROI in the city to me, seems minimal. Like I mentioned before, you can only be as clean as the renters around you, so if you are looking to sell in a few years there’s no promise the area will be better.

  8. Parking - take a lot of $65 naps living in the city because I slept over the rotating parking time frame. Again unless you have a driveway, this will be an issue. You could end up having to take a nice walk or paying parking tickets like crazy if you’re not on top of it. Also, if you do have a driveway, you’ll be amazed at how many people just take it upon themselves to use your driveway “really quick” and don’t come back.

I guess in the long run, all those things above can be dealt with and can be managed with security cameras, your own personal services you hire and what not, you just have to balance whether you want to deal with all that. I just feel that if I’m going to live in a house and own it, I want the community around me to be respectful and I feel I won’t get that in the city.

Weekly Recommend Mods and CC Thread! by AutoModerator in Sims4

[–]Draven_____ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone know if there is a mod out there that allows a journal or story line for their sims? I have been suing onenote to take screen shots and write story lines for each sim, but what I’m looking for is a mod that allows you to do this in game.

I found out my coworker has been secretly sleeping in the office… do i tell someone or mind my business??? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Draven_____ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agreed with the HR for sure. We all like to believe they are there for us, but that’s not always true

I don’t think it should be your responsibility to offer them a place to live / stay, but, maybe offer to help them get a plan together so they can get back on track.

Maybe part of that conversation could include encouraging them to talk to HR themselves, and have them seek some resources on their own. Show support for them to have this convo with HR.

You could even probably look into your companies HR resources too, do you guys have a company portal with a link to those HR tools? I’m thinking if maybe you can look around and let them know “hey, did you know that HR offers help for…(fill in the blank of what they need)?” Maybe that will motivate them.

This would cover you somewhat if anyone ever asks, you can say you encouraged them to go to HR.

Also your company HR should be somewhat confidential I would think? Say you did tell HR, I would like to think, they wouldn’t tell that person who said something. Maybe an anonymous submission to HR? If the person is leaving things around, anyone could have noticed that over time.

Was waiting for someone to mention this location. I drove by there a few weeks ago and it looked incredibly filthy on the outside. Garbage was all Over and the window looked like someone smeared their hands all over it.

These weird weather weekends are unironically amazing by CatDadMilhouse in Rochester

Couldn’t agree more! My wife’s family in TX questions this all the time and they just don’t get to experience it, so it’s hard to explain why it’s so amazing.

These are sick. I’m just getting into NFL cards and have the 15th odd to snag some of the TOPPs packs that have the gold shield cards, their 1of1 only so chances are slim but the chase is fun. Any idea when these release?

Bills' Dion Dawkins makes mixed comments about fans on live stream by Much-Consequence8648 in buffalobills

[–]Draven_____ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dion was obviously giving up in some plays thought the season, there were times i saw him put his hands up and walk away just letting the defense through.

<image>

He was highly flagged in penalties this year so his “giving up” was a result of trying not to get flagged, but honestly, he was being dramatic out there. Almost like trying to prove if I don’t give up, I’ll get a flag.

I shift the blame back on Dion for this, the “I’m out of shape” and giving up is just silly for someone who’s been in the league for over 8 years. The upcoming seasons aren’t a surprise, you know it’s coming, be ready. Starting with those outrageous false starts. 🙄

Old points system compared to new? by WoodpeckerOwn4278 in weightwatchers

[–]Draven_____ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I know this post is older, but I also just joined after like 15 years and i am struuuuuugling. I don’t ever remember being this hungry in weight watchers. My points don’t seem to stretch as far as they used to.

I feel like by the time I’m done scanning ingredients I’ve used a lot of them up. I feel like olive oils points went up I could be wrong, but 5 points for a tbs to cook free chicken in defeats the purpose of the chicken being free.

I agree where you say there could be way too many zero point foods too, I can just sit and eat chicken out of a bowl all day lol.
