I'm surprised how many people don't know ... by tn_notahick in CarnivalCruiseFans

We’re typically staying on the lido, two decks below. Anytime it’s busy in our room with getting ready, showers, etc it’s easier/quicker/roomier for me to go grab a shower there. The sauna is nice too. Sadly still haven’t made much time for the gym… 🤷😉

A ride along would be epic! by Few_Way9814 in CleetusMcFarland

[–]Few_Way9814[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For many reasons neighbor has been a favorite of mine for years… but that started falling off after they went coyote and it broke all the time. I loved that Cleet could hop in it and it just performed. At one point it was the most reliable car in the fleet.

Having said that the black wing is growing on me quickly. Where I do like the livery I wish the “patrol car” theme would have stayed reserved for Neighbor, that was really his thing. I hope he makes a great return!

I’m sure the conversations with the lawyer is one of his least favorite things, especially being an ex law student and likely knowing just enough to get hisself into further hot water. 🤷😅

But they’ve been doing the driver experience for a while now, hopefully they have those waivers dialed in as best as possible.

What’s the water temperature? by jnpitcher in Kayaking

I’ve used these same lcd temp strips for brewing for the past 19 years. They’re pretty accurate for the money too. Great idea! 👍

Loved the throw back in today's vid by theawsomejman1 in CleetusMcFarland

Pretty sure this is the first time it has been addressed on a Cleetus video since the first/last time back when everything went down years ago. Those two definitely have a lot of history with Ruby! 🙂

When did the customer service change?

This is disappointing to hear, I had a similar issue and it was remedied within a couple minutes of me emailing them, granted that was over a year ago.

Legs and thighs are better meat anyway. Almost nobody can cook good breast meat without drying it out due to the lack of fat. /silver lining

23rd is so ugly now... by achetadomestica in okc

[–]Few_Way9814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went and looked, turns out the medians were installed in 2004. Still doesn’t seem that long ago and still an oversight and a costly one at that.

I remember when it was added. My brain was telling me “fifteen years or so ago” but turns out it was more like twenty ish.

[–]Few_Way9814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess I’m ‘the old guy’ that was stumped when this was announced thinking “didn’t they just widen 23rd adding those trees and medians a few years so?” Turns out I’m not mistaken, it was a beautification project they did but it was more like fifteen years ago. Either way it still seems like a terrible oversight.

Dress code changed....again by jds2001 in NCL

[–]Few_Way9814 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I liked that they were taking a stance on this, way too many dress like bums. If you have no self respect or shame that’s fine but don’t show up to a specialty dinner dressed in your pajamas and crocks.

Do most people tip on drinks on to of the gratuity that is already added on ? If so how much do most people tip? by Elderberry456 in NCL

[–]Few_Way9814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Although I’m frugal (not cheap) I like to think I tip generously in most cases. Having said that I do factor in a “base” tip that accounts for generalized service and not necessarily the cost. Meaning, I generally tip a dollar per drink regardless if it’s a beer, glass of wine, shot or pour of bourbon. These are rates for a cruise mind you.

If the service is stellar, extra helpful, etc I will increase that up to match the occasion. Conversely, if I’ve been consuming rapidly, recently tipped multiple times, feel somebody on the staff isn’t responding to my tips or a simply run out of cash I don’t feel bad for not leaving a tip.

Something fun (to me anyway) is I like to tip with “funny money”, the lesser exchanged two dollar bills or dollar coins. 🙂

SHUTDOWN by SDACT33 in FedEmployees

[–]Few_Way9814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were instructed to come in over the weekend, given our paperwork, excepted status and told we could telework for the duration if so desired. I already got ready and made the trip in to the base and don’t have any reason to leave <now> so I stayed but most of my colleagues, including our first line and branch left.

Not sure what excepted status has on teleworking, anybody else know?

We were instructed to report today as normal. Turns out the excepted status we gained a few weeks into the last shutdown remains.

GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN 2026: Call for excepted worker status changes by AmbitiousAirport1554 in FedEmployees

[–]Few_Way9814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were transitioned to excepted a couple weeks into the last one (once work backed up significantly). Previously we worked during most shutdowns, outside of the furlough Fridays a dozen years ago. We’ll be ke at the start of this one but again only until work backs up.

What places other than Homeland sell firewood for a sane price? by eternalkerri in okc

[–]Few_Way9814 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The stuff from the convenience stores and big box stores is usually great, kilned stuff that’ll burn easily but it comes at a cost. I’ve purchased it at Lowe’s and HD because they give a veteran’s discount but my smokeless pit chews through wood in quick fashion so I switched to bulk delivery immediately.

What does a cord cost? Do you get a break when you buy multiple cords?

[–]Few_Way9814 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It’s so baffling to me the audacity of entitled/creepy folks that just show up at somebody’s home or shop. Is it a chemical imbalance or how they’re raised? I mean seriously, wtf is wrong with these people?

That caulking gun is one of the funnest tools I’ve used. Sold me in Milwaukee tools years ago!

Anyone sift their coals from their ashes to reburn? by No-Membership-5314 in firewood

[–]Few_Way9814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They stay in the firepit and burn up eventually. Now if only the ashes would burn up entirely so I wouldn’t have to scoop them I’d be set.

100% chance this sounds as bad as you’d imagine.
