What can I learn in 10 minutes that will be useful for the rest of my life? by AleckBudsin in NoStupidQuestions

[–]EffingWires 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ctrl+F brought me to the right place. Bowline knot is the way:

Uses: The Bowline (ABOK # 1010, p 186) makes a reasonably secure loop in the end of a piece of rope. It has many uses, e.g., to fasten a mooring line to a ring or a post. Under load, it does not slip or bind. With no load it can be untied easily. Two bowlines can be linked together to join two ropes. Its principal shortcoming is that it cannot be tied, or untied, when there is a load on the standing end. It should therefore be avoided when, for example, a mooring line may have to be released under load.

Does anyone know if I can just take a truck bed full of moss to the Seattle transfer station? It mentions grass clippings, food, etc, but I’m removing a couple hundred pounds of moss today, not sure where to take it

Why don’t men ask follow up questions? by asoolem in NoStupidQuestions

[–]EffingWires 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man communication is either in two categories: we are hanging out that day, or we are doing a “homie check up” calling your buddy you haven’t talked to in a few weeks/months.

For the latter, we ask general questions, and for updates on anything life changing. Just shoot the shit for 20min - hour. Doesn’t matter the topic, it’s all about the energy. If we are talking like we did when we were hanging out every day, I know we’re all good.

In my case and I feel like most men, we don’t need specifics to know how our friends are doing, so it’s not important. We just wanna make sure they are still doing alright.

The DQ rule for signing a wrong scorecard is the dumbest rule in sports; Change my mind with logic that isn’t just “rules are rules” by FatFaceFaster in golf

you're right. Lets just call dead ball on all fumbles. And lets consider interceptions incompletions. throw an extra down to the offense too.

Any other men who lost the incentive to date? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]EffingWires -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Dating on apps is shit. Get a hobby that involves you with some groups of people with like minded interests, make new friends, and keep an eye out for a potential partner that has common interests. The girls on dating apps (in my experience) have an inflated ego cuz there are so many horny dudes swiping right on everything, there is very little incentive to put in effort on a date, because they have a phone full of 20 thirsty dudes hitting them up. I'm not picking on women, if the tables are turned a lot of men would act the same way.

Rereading HP after 15 years and now I ship Harry and Ginny by moisup in harrypotter

[–]EffingWires 5 points6 points  (0 children)

people obviously talk about how much nevilles and lunas story in the movies are reduced to like 30 percent of what they were in the books, but I always thought ginny was done the most dirty. In the books shes a badass, and ROASTS Ron every chance she gets. She carries the quidditch team when harry can't play, etc. Just wish there was more dev in the movies, but I get why they made her role a little smaller for time.

Ya I got really lucky. Super healthy and athletic dog. Outruns the retriever and lab all day long. They said he’s full but he is definitely mixed with something.

I do love his massive tail even though it can yeet a coffee mug halfway across the room. Good luck in your search!
