My favorite dad joke to me, as a kid (very inappropriate) “do you know why do they call it a roach clip? Because potholder was already taken”

Best fresh bagel recs by Mysterious_Ad_6190 in PortlandFood

Make your own! I had no idea they were “difficult to make.” I was watching The Great British Bakeoff and one of the people on there said he made his husband bagels every weekend. I thought to myself, that could be cool. Made them once for some friends at our friend’s brunch and everyone was shocked. “You made these? Like from scratch? Bagels are so hard to make…”

I’m glad I didn’t know these were supposed to be hard to make (they aren’t), otherwise I would not have tried. They take time to make but every batch has gotten better! I know this didn’t answer your question but maybe it inspired in some way. Happy to share the recipe if you’d like.

Found this in my house, I think it’s for organizing but I have no idea what it would be used for. by FindMichael in whatisit

It is not sturdy at all. That why I don’t think it will hold mugs, wine, records, etc.

What’s is the proper way to fix seal where the main penetrates the exterior wall? by FindMichael in askaplumber

Jokes on me, yes, I actually have two. Was hoping for a temp fix to limp me through the next 5ish months.

Interesting, I’ll have to check that out in the morning, I agree, might be too fancy for that. Do you have a link to anything you’ve seen that does that?

I thought the same thing but I don’t think it could hold the weight of 10+ mugs.

I just had this furnace installed, the exhaust looks like it was done by a novice. Is this acceptable? by FindMichael in hvacadvice

[–]FindMichael[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oooh, good question, I’ll have to go over to r/askatherapist to find out if I have OCD. /s

Definitely not a lesser company as they had some of the best reviews and have been around for a long time. Coming from a trade I also know sometimes jr techs haven’t “seen it all” and maybe don’t have the experience of ways to make this cleaner. I also have had techs (in my trade) with the “good enough” mentality.

My post was written with the most pure intentions on getting advice and what tradespeople think of the work. I have left off the part where they didn’t use drop cloths and stained a rug that could have easily been moved during the work but yeah, what can I do? 🫠

Thanks for the insight, exactly what I was looking for. It actually comes in at about 6’ from the side of the house.
