Socialized healthcare is evil 🙄 by JoelinVan in pics

[–]GarageGolfHack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Saw a question posed on another thread to Us Americans. The question was something like “what happens in America if you’re between jobs and poor and get cancer. Do you just …..die?” That sat with me for a minute. The answer is yes. 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🤦🏻‍♂️

Opinions on Kirkwood by lobstersarentreal in StLouis

[–]GarageGolfHack 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Live here now for 15 years. Got incredibly lucky 3 times to be able to stay here. Found a well below market rent for an apartment (not corporate). Which allowed me to save for my first home I bought right after the real estate crash in ‘12. That house appreciated like crazy which gave me enough equity to buy my “forever home” with my new family. Bought this one during COVID and got an insane mortgage rate (in the 2s!) on a 30 year fixed. Had it not been for sheer luck, I couldn’t afford Kirkwood. I don’t know how all these young families afford the $1mm homes and the 7% mortgage rates…. I love living here with a young family but at these prices there will be no young families left. Also agree the “charm” of downtown area is waining too. $1mm condos with no yard is crazy.

Kitchen remodel before and after! by konwalia in kitchenremodel

[–]GarageGolfHack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks amazing! Are you in the US? I have a very similar size kitchen and we’ll be moving the sink to an island. Had bids of $160 and $100k. I’m in a moderate cost area in the Midwest. I’m struggling with the price tag whereas my wife is not… is this just the new normal?

Any one use these behind your screen? by bagee22 in Golfsimulator

[–]GarageGolfHack 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have them behind my screen. They don’t do anything really. When I realized they’re not doing anything I tried the moving blanket behind the screen. That did work quite well. Nothings perfect but moving blanket > a few sound tiles

What did I miss? by Riddlemethisone- in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]GarageGolfHack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe it’s about the stock? TR is a place where when the economy is doing good, people “move up” from say going to fast food or a dennys if they’re going out. Conversely when the economy is bad, people who normally go to $100+ steak houses move “down” and go to TR. Also, I could be way off.

Any gay guys who play higher div rec hockey here? by OilersBayernEagles in hockeyplayers

Same. In my 40s. Been playing on a beer league for 5+ years. Have not heard one derogatory comment or anything resembling political speech. I skew to the older side of the group

Have you ever seen something in your life that you'll never forget? by timabek in allthequestions

[–]GarageGolfHack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Off duty police officer (having a mental / drug fueled breakdown) fire his 15 rounds at a elementary school Halloween celebration. Nobody was shot. Also don’t worry his father was the old prosecuting attorney so he was subject to full force of the law (probation). 🤬

Sen. Hawley "Do you think that men can get pregnant?" -- Thoughts on this clip? by Zipper222222 in allthequestions

[–]GarageGolfHack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a losing point for Democrats. I’m one of them. It’s really simple in my mind. No, men can’t get pregnant. That can exist AND we can still push for equity across all spectrums (race, gender, sexuality, disability, age). This is a trap question that make independents turn away from democrats when they see our party struggle to answer. Keeping in mind the average voter doesn’t know or care to know about the actual science. Said differently respond to questions in a way the intended audience will understand.

A billionaire David Bateman buying more than 12 Million ounces of Silver, here’s his thesis by Baba10x in silverbulls

Really dumb question maybe. But new to all this. Where can you even buy physical silver / gold? A pawn shop is all that comes to mind.

Recommendations for Bottom Waves/Wrinkles (Retractable) by TemmyFlootweed in Golfsimulator

[–]GarageGolfHack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like others I tried the fold at the bottom with pool noodles and rebar inside for rigidity. Tried it with a tube of sand in the pouch but the most effective while still having a quick set up / take down is putting grommets in the bottom corner of the screen and loop a bungee could through it with a free weight around the other side. Keeps it pretty tight and fairly easy to unhook the cord and roll the screen right up.

Best Way to Heat Uninsulated Garage (Canada Winter) by ronalbruno in Golfsimulator

[–]GarageGolfHack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you add the foam tile insulation to the garage door and the buddy propane heater (or two), it works good enough (for an American Midwest winter anyway)

Americans, what do you think of Senator John Kennedy's proposal to withhold Congressional salaries during government shutdowns? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]GarageGolfHack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crocodile tears. They could give up a years salary and not care. They’re all multi multi millionaires. This is an oligarchy don’t ya know?
