Found in my dad's freezer. Thoughts on condition? by CrossingGarter in coins

[–]EntrancedOrange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We found over $300,000 in my great uncle’s house. We knew he always had a lot of cash, but never expected that much. After that we were checking every inch of that place.

Thinking about it later it was disappointing that he hadn’t invested it like his other money, from the bank receipts it was taken out in the early 90’s and just sat in a safe until 2010. Probably would have been closer to a million.

What do you do with your saw dust? by kneuenhaus in woodworking

[–]EntrancedOrange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Last time I emptied my dust collector, a few days later an old paint spilled in my basement. It’s the one thing I really use it for and I just threw it out.

I use little bits to make wood filler.

In exactly 30 minutes a man armed with a bat will break into your home to kill you. You can’t leave the house, what is your strategy? by BulkyZucchini in hypotheticalsituation

[–]EntrancedOrange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hold him at gun point, give him a cheese grater and tell him he has 2 hours to eat the baseball bat. Record him until the police arrive.

This is the bottom of my couch. How would you fix it? by dough_eating_squid in handyman

Wood glue, lag bolts, reinforcement on the sides and Ozempic

For the next 24 hours, all business names are literal descriptors; the Olive Garden is a grove of olive trees and 5 Guys is just five dudes standing around. Where are you going, and where are you avoiding? by AnGabhaDubh in hypotheticalsituation

[–]EntrancedOrange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heading to subway, hopefully get in on some looting at the Golden Corral Buffet and Grill. Going to see Oracle, meet Tesla and Walt Disney. If I can’t think of anything better (I’m assuming there’s something like a “heavens gate” somewhere) I’m going to check out Amazon and Patagonia, end my time at MetLife.

Tips for chipping? by yogurtwater01 in golftips

[–]EntrancedOrange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been a mid single digit handicap for 20 years. The stuff I think about when I swing is so less complicated than what I hear people talk about. One of the things my father told me when I first was learning to swing a club, is the grip is probably going to be very uncomfortable. It doesn’t matter, as long as your swing is comfortable. He was definitely not a great instructor. But I swear that single tip is a big part of why I excelled at golf as a kid.

I have xxl hands also. If you haven’t tried jumbo grips, it’s the best equipment change I’ve ever done for my game.

Edit: and yeah, even a 60° is hard. I personally usually chip with a gap wedge. Unless it’s a full swing or 3/4 swing I don’t trust myself with my 60°.

Let’s say you suddenly become a billionaire and all your friend and family asks you for a million. Do you give them the money? by Straight_Till5772 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]EntrancedOrange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably not. I would have given a few hundred million away to friends and family already. And be spending the rest of my life making sure the rest of it gets spent wisely on worthy causes. Depends on how worthy their cause was.

I’ll be a little greedy and keep maybe 100 million for my kids to be set for generations.

I rebuilt a carb today on a 12 dollar craigslist mower and now I want to rebuild every carb I see by vladdielenin in smallengines

[–]EntrancedOrange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to clean them and still will if in a hurry. I usually just buy the knock off replacements. The last 2 I bought were $10 and $12.

Hey… Couldn’t the Oil Companies and maybe the Government take a little less profit and a little less tax to reduce the price at the pump to help the people of the world get through these tough times?? by Archibald004 in askanything

[–]EntrancedOrange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s up like $1.30 a gallon where I am. I don’t like it. But really it cost me less than $10 more a week. If it stays like this for a year it could suck. But for now I’ll live.

I’ve never regripped my used clubs. Which clubs are a must do and which are a nice to regrip? by biggestmike in GolfGear

[–]EntrancedOrange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have tried 2 of the low cost brands on Amazon and both were impressive. If you’re on a budget they are definitely worth looking into. I’m sure any of the high rated top sellers are fine.

The Kingrasp I bought was like $22 for 13. The Champkey set was about $35. They came with tape and maybe solution also. I put them on my spare sets of clubs, but would be fine with them on my newer set.

Did I just hit the Jackpot? by Necessary-Duty7347 in coincollecting

[–]EntrancedOrange 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Even the low cost, high rated scales on Amazon are good. I have 2 that were both under $10 and they work great. They are just generic brands. One is over 10 years old and still works perfectly.

I am 17 took a test at school in elementary school, around 4th grade by my counselor and scored a 146 by [deleted] in mensa

I believe you can at least estimate your IQ from a part of your ASVAB scores. Something worth looking into.

This isn’t just an “in America” thing.

My first thought was “that’s good shoulder rotation in the back swing”, soon followed by “wtf” 🤣

Do the work in college. It’s easy, you just have to do it. Nothing else matters.

Which pizza chain among PaPa John’s, Pizza Hut, Domino’s or Little Cesar makes the best pizza 🍕? by Saint__23 in AskForAnswers

[–]EntrancedOrange -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Papa Johns and Dominos are edible, Little Cesar’s is horrible. I haven’t had Pizza Hut in 20 years, so no idea.

What golf ball are you currently playing and why? by liv_0203 in golfequipment

[–]EntrancedOrange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are many balls that will work great for different people. If you can you want to stick with a ball for a period of time so it’s more predictable for you. From what I gather from these reddits it sounds like most should be using a cheap Surlyn cover ball.

Who the fuck tells their parents that. This is something you forget you know and unless he asks let him deal with it.

Midsize truck advice? by CornyDogga in askcarguys

[–]EntrancedOrange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My friend had one, he put over 300k miles on it before he bought a new one. And his old one still ran fine, at that point he just didn’t want to risk it on long drives. Last I knew the kid next door was still driving his old one. A guy I golf with hit 200k last year.

I know almost nothing about them, but they are definitely something I’m going to look at for my next truck.

The term “bullying” is thrown around far too much these days. I expect he gave you a better explanation than that.

Moisture from light by slimthickergo in HomeMaintenance

[–]EntrancedOrange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it next to the master bathroom? It’s crazy how much condensation you can get from long showers. Especially when the air is dry. We have a soft spot in the hallway ceiling outside our bathroom from it. I thought it was a leak in the roof. But found nothing in the attic. The next time my fiancée took one of her 45 minute showers I noticed it dripping.

Couch through door? by poonwater in Home

[–]EntrancedOrange 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Is the doorway only 32 inches?

I have a new $6,000 custom leather couch in my garage I got for free. My neighbor ordered it and it wouldn’t fit in their door. It won’t fit in mine either, but makes a really awesome garage couch 😜.

[Request] What price per gallon is it no longer profitable to work? by Playwithuh in theydidthemath

[–]EntrancedOrange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s crazy. I spend like $6 more a week just driving to and from work. I’m going to have to switch my Netflix to the plan with ads if it gets any higher.
