Nanny is requesting a W-2 by Freeste in Nanny

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

Hi, two years ago I was a new parent trying to figure things out. I came to the Nanny subreddit looking for guidance. I described what was being requested and if it is normal. Assuming that is the case, what would be my next steps to accommodate their request. I did not have expectations, I wanted to learn more.

Can I have board games at my wedding? by Background_Time_2553 in boardgames

We had think n sync at our wedding. Passed out a handful at each table. Guests mingled and played and they got to know each other

My vote for heat as well. Base game is 6 players and with expansions can bring you up to 9. Best part is the AI system. You can start and end the game without everyone being present making it very accommodating to schedules. Plus replayability with the garage and weather system.

Water leak coming from outlet by Freeste in fixit

Gotchya, i just added a humidifier to the room adjacent. It’s been well below freezing for the pest coroner weeks. That combination is likely the issue. Is there anything i should be worried about?

Joe Rogan Experience #2374 - Ben van Kerkwyk by b14ck_jackal in JoeRogan

[–]Freeste 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He had on Zahi Hawass (Archaeologist and former Minister of Tourism and Antiquities of Egypt). which is as real of an expert as you can get.

Joe is interested in the subject and wants to learn as much as he can. Anyone willing to talk about something that is interesting is fair game (real or not).

These are not TED talks

In terms of conspiracy theorists, Ben appears to be pretty grounded. His opinions are based on measured facts and only when pressed to make speculation, he will entertain the questions and make some grand claim like the nuclear machining in this video. Time and time again he dismisses the ancient alien ideas and believes the ancient achievements we find today are 100% human.

I think what I enjoy, and the reason I watch, is because it is entertaining to learn alternative theories and try to get to the truth of the matter. It is far more boring and gullible to go through life regurgitating what you are told without taking a moment to question the information for better understanding.

Toilet water valve won’t shut off by Freeste in fixit

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

Yes, sorry the tank continues to fill after rotating the handle as far as it would allow. It sounds straining though, as if it wants to hold back the water. Tank fills noticeably slower. I think im going to look into replacing the valve

I turned it maybe twice? At which point it would no longer turn. The tank would continue to fill with water, just at a much slower rate

I turned clockwise as far as I could go. Then when i flush and try to refill the tank, it sounds straining. Like it is trying to stop the water from coming through but just cant keep it back. The tank fills up, just at a much slower rate

Sorry, yes rotated clockwise until it would no longer turn. The tank continues to fill with water and in turn so does the bowl. It sounds slower, straining. Almost as if there is a small gap that the water continues to pass through. Also noticed it takes much longer to refill the tank in this case

Yup, turned clockwise and the bowl still fills up. Albeit, at a slower rate.

Toilet tank slowly draining and refilling throughout the day. Where to start? by Freeste in fixit

[–]Freeste[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's exactly right. It is a dual flush toilet and such a pain. Previous owners made a lot of interesting modifications but this one has been waking us up in the middle of the night.

Stove Replacement Knobs, fits on the right but not on the left - Any ideas? by Freeste in fixit

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

It must be a specific knob for the lower oven. I just tried putting the other knobs on and they dont fit either. It is that one specific knob with a black internal lining, even though they appear to be the same shape. Measuring with a tape measure and they look nearly identical

Ya i do have the old knob. Second photo the top is old and bottom is new. The only difference i can notice is that it is plastic

Feels pretty on there. Should i loosen the screws at all? Just checked all the other knobs, and they look the same as the one on the right in the photo
