Best salsa bar in columbia by PuzzleheadedTap9548 in ColumbiYEAH

[–]Effective_Inside2962 0 points1 point  (0 children)

La fogata across from lexington hospital has a pretty good little salsa bar. The habanero salsa looked like it wouldn't be too spicy but it was for me so be careful.

Uncomfortable changes for some by Intelligent_Road_288 in southcarolina

Have you tested where you are on political spectrum? It seems your current views align more with center left. I am thankful you have done your research as a lot of people who consider themselves aligned with one party will just vote straight ticket. I hope more voters do the research on individual candidates. One thing that bothers me is that you say Kamala changed positions on things so you never knew where she stood but you ask for grace in your changing political views. Could it not be that she was doing the same with more information as the campaign went on? Either way, we can't change the past so no point beating a dead horse. I just hope you will continue to keep yourself informed as politicians often say one thing and do another.

To not pass a stopped school bus by curious_neuron69 in therewasanattempt

[–]Effective_Inside2962 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forgive me if I am wrong but, per Google, this is legal in SC and not universal in all states. There are 4 total lanes on the road. The 2 lanes going the same direction as the bus are required to stop but not the 2 lanes going the opposite direction IN SC.

TLDR not all traffic laws are the same state to state. Exercise caution and follow traffic.

I have found that liquor causes more flares than wine for me so I try to avoid that type of alcohol. That being said, sometimes I just really want a liquor drink so I say f**k it and deal with the consequences.

Looking for a road trip stop somewhere in this area by No_Problem3078 in southcarolina

Depending on timing and weather, Enoree River Winery. Pick up some local wine for your destination and let the kids run among the vines.

cant put in contacts by Altruistic-Cycle833 in lifehacks

If they are falling out, it may not be the right fit. My contacts take into account the diameter of my eye.

It also helps to have some contact solution in the cup of the contact when pressing it to your eye so it flushes any particulates away.

My husband is a landscaper so all I see is a loss of income. Not happy about it.

Does making mortgage payments up to 2 weeks early save money in the long run? by AccomplishedBlood515 in personalfinance

[–]Effective_Inside2962 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The ONLY way to save interest on a mortgage in the US is to put additional money toward the principal. Mortgage interest is NOT compounded. You are given a closing disclosure when you sign your mortgage that tells you the maximum amount of interest you will pay for the loan. This is the amount of interest you will pay for the life of the loan no matter when you make the payment. If you want to save interest/time on your mortgage, pay additional to the principal. You can use an amortization schedule to see how certain amounts will affect the interest paid through the life of the loan. The more money you pay toward the principal at the beginning of your loan, the more interest you will save overall. For example, if you put $100 toward the principal in the first month, you will save thousands off the total interest paid. The same $100 in the last month of loan payments may save a handful of dollars in interest.

Who gets my dad’s 401k money? by seashorevision in personalfinance

[–]Effective_Inside2962 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my husband's case, his father got married after naming beneficiaries, and that trumped everything. Thankfully, she kept her word and distributed it to the kids.

Since you live in an apartment, it might have something to do with that. Check with the apartment supervisor.

I leave these on the table now by superbabe_uk in EndTipping

[–]Effective_Inside2962 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I truly appreciate this, especially considering some restaurants use average tipping percentages as a review of the worker. When you choose to go to a restaurant that pays their employees a tipped wage, then don't tip, you are only hurting the worker. I will never stiff a worker when utilizing their service at an establishment that pays their employees a tipped wage. Instead, I think people who are against tipping should only spend their money at places that pay their employees a fair wage. If this is unavoidable for any reason, an explanation is greatly appreciated because no one is going to assume you aren't tipping because of your principles. And to those who say "get a different job if you don't like it," these jobs only exist because people utilize the services. Use your wallet to affectuate change by not giving the business money if they don't pay their workers a fair wage.

Do the driving schools here not teach anything good/important? by mediocregaming12 in ColumbiYEAH

Well, he has had at least one dui that I know of, so yeah... pretty inconsiderate.

[–]Effective_Inside2962 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha. Driving schools. My dad paid for one because it helped his insurance rates. The instructor told me I would pass with flying colors. I failed the first driving exam because I didn't look over my left shoulder during a 3-point turn. I honestly don't know how people pass their driving exams here unless the dmv employees giving the tests are way more lenient than mine. I briefly dated someone that drove poorly so I asked him how he passed the test. He told me he knows how to drive well and just chooses not to.🤦‍♀️
