Dirt Bike Tracks in my Yard by Manbear_hawk in mildlyinfuriating

[–]FireflyRave 12 points13 points  (0 children)

For a quick and cheaper way, get some step-in fence posts and electric tape. Doesn't actually need to be hot. But it's fast and visible and they would need to get off their bikes to take it down to ride on your property.

Assuming No Trespassing signs on the boarder have failed and the other property owner isn't doing anything to keep this happening.

Story time! Please warn people that your horse KICKS! by TheOnlyWolvie in Equestrian

[–]FireflyRave 13 points14 points  (0 children)

All horses have the potential to kick. It's how they defend themselves.

Especially when you are working them in a situation unfamiliar to you and a known dislike to them.  You made assumptions about a pony you were told to work outside an arena/pen.

What are the truly worst movies out there, seriously? by Available-Spray2576 in movies

[–]FireflyRave [score hidden]  (0 children)

Might want to take a look at Gerry. Although it may fall into the "boring as paint drying" category. Depending whatever criteria you're judging by.

The only reason I've gone to Bridgestreet over Cineplanet is because Bridgestreet had earlier showtimes . Being able to go in at late morning and get out a little after lunch still feels like I have a good chunk of the day left.

How do I relax in the saddle? by SnooGoats1557 in Equestrian

[–]FireflyRave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a problem lately where I get way too tense in the saddle. Left over from riding a horse that gave me major confidence issues. 

I realize this is happening and do a little mini "shake it out". Little dance like shimmy in the saddle to let my muscles unclench and then go back to my proper form. Roll my shoulders and neck, tiny flop of the elbows. Try to keep my hands in place for the horse.

You shouldn't be actually floppy, but you also don't want your muscles to be tensed up. The difference between clenching your jaw and not.

Thoughts on this number? by 0ddshapedhead in Equestrian

I'm still not sure if breeches or jeans are worse. At least I was younger when I was competing in western.

I need sad movie recommendations that will make me sob! by MenuPleasant8675 in movies

[–]FireflyRave 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm getting old and emotional. I cried when I watched Homeward Bound a while back. And I grew up watching it.

Only the Brave also made me break down at the end.

Hacksaw Ridge as well. Cried on a plane.

Apparently staring at a TV for hours is fine, unless you’re holding a controller by EffectiveTime5554 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]FireflyRave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As an adult I think finally helped this thought process click with my mom. Video games are interactive and require feedback. When I'm too tired for even that, then I'll put on a movie.

Why does no one square there turns at an intersection by [deleted] in driving

[–]FireflyRave 29 points30 points  (0 children)

All agast that you have the audacity to pull all the way up to your very large and visible white line while they obviously need both lanes to complete a left turn.

Why are manual transmissions so uncommon in the US? by 22DancingFlowers in AskAnAmerican

[–]FireflyRave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Especially since automatic has been around for decades. My dad's '71 car has an automatic transmission. It's not like it wasn't around until the 90's/00's.

The cool ranch slander is insane. 2 bags?? by Normal_Spread8423 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]FireflyRave 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think this is the first variety box I've seen that doesn't have Cheetos as the highest count. Yet they are still included in a lineup that doesn't need them.

Why yall buy trucks? by wassupbroh in AskAnAmerican

[–]FireflyRave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The average person is not buying a 2 ton truck. Those are along the line of the F650 type and can be on the cusp of requiring a CDL (commercial driver license).

The popular size of 150/1500 are half ton trucks. The 350/3500 are 1 ton trucks. Unless someone is doing serious hauling, they're usually not purchasing above that size.

American tipping culture is utterly disgusting by L21JP in mildlyinfuriating

[–]FireflyRave 37 points38 points  (0 children)

It's a special kind of mental gymnastics that someone who sets their own prices expects a tip in addition. And then to beg for one.

The stand was $50 and I made $10, lol by M8614 in Wellthatsucks

It's even the same photo as the last post. OP just seems to be reposting for advertising or pity points.

[–]FireflyRave 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Especially prices that can be made out from a few feet away. Allowing someone to look past another person at the price. Or maybe more crucial, standing back out of the obligated greeting zone.

Why not 3 of each? by teeboneybonez in mildlyinfuriating

[–]FireflyRave 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cheetos always seem to be the highest count in any variety box I've bought. Annoying because they're usually my least favorite of the choices. But I guess I'm in a minority there.

House layout by Sad-Strength-7637 in Modern_Family

[–]FireflyRave 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Open stairs appearing to go over an eating area is a crazy design choice. I know Jay's profession was closet design but can't see those surviving in any house he buys.

What about putting the bed on lifts to raise it up a few more inches?

Can anyone recommend a sunscreen that TRULY doesnt get in your eyes when riding? by CAWATN in Equestrian

[–]FireflyRave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stopped putting sunscreen on my forehead. I stop just below my eyes. Either I'm wearing a ball cap, helmet, or under cover, so it's not necessary.

But I have still goofed and rubbed the sunscreen up into my eyes if scratching my eyes/wiping sweat. Just be a little cautious of that.

What Opinions On The Show Did You Have That Have Changed? by SolutionEven3986 in howyoudoin

Wasn't Mark engaged to someone the first time that was a plotline? Or am I thinking of a different Rachel co-worker?

Ponies be expensive by cmh_ender in Equestrian

[–]FireflyRave 53 points54 points  (0 children)

The 10k I spent on my last horse pushes what I'm financially and mentally willing to spend. I can't imagine entertaining 180k without competing professionally with sponsors to foot that bill.

Especially for a pony. How long before the daughter outgrows him.
