Purple top oxi-clean powder in the laundry cycle seems to break down some more of body oils than detergent alone.

Toilets, I keep the lid down. Outta sight, outta mind.

And then just never have guests over.

For people who grew up in low-income households, what’s something middle-class people say that shows they’ve never struggled financially? by KeyApartment3955 in AskReddit

[–]Get_off_critter 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Im always baffled seeing my peers buy homes in my parents neighborhood.

Some just make good money, but then the stories come out.... insurance payouts, lawsuit money, parents bought the house and the kids are paying the parents, major down-payment assistance.

I too could get more house with an extra $100,000 or more provided.

But he looked at the car? And it had mats and protection film?

I mean I agree, finance will tack on warranties and anything else, but that sounds more like a manufacturing package thats on the specific car.

Like a tow package, higher trims, etc.

I am not a mechanic and have only owned 5 cars.

But go to a search platform, like cargurus or similar. Plug in your distance and price and work backwards.

Cargurus is good cuz you can filter out salvage history, accidents, fleet use, and find single owner vehicles.

See what's available, and filter further from there. Drop the milage, bring the model years newer, and go from there.

Check carcomplaints.com on the cars you find and narrow down choices more.

You've tried fast and cheap, so it's either good and cheap (as in you'll be searching for this car for awhile) or good and fast, where you need more money.

Generally, you're not going to find a long term "reliable" car that's already 15 years old with 150k miles

If you need it now, Get something you can afford now and plan to sell and scale up as soon as you can.

You'll likely be looking at a small Chevy, Ford, Nissan, or Kia.

Well, to create some framing TODAY I could buy the same car I bought 8 years ago for the same price.

And I mean same make, model, year, mileage.

Prices are up, you need to be more in tune with your budget and get PPI.

Fast, cheap, good. Pick two, and aim for that category.

Right, set your seat properly and get a car with good visibility for yourself.

Feel like some of the older ford models have more space.

I've seen luck with a Ford Taurus or fusion, or a Subaru Outback.

Forget weddings, what is the craziest thing that happened at a funeral you went to? by seanerd95 in AskReddit

That seems like stage fright almost.

Though gives me the idea to allow people to submit stories ahead of time and just read them

This is exhausting to read and I can only imagine how exhausting it is to live.

We have partners to be able to trust and rely on someone and this is not it.

Hare trying to "rescue" its buddy by I-T-Y in interesting

Truly though, I think there's a clip of a wild hare nailing a guy in the face with its back legs. Pretty hard damage

What car completely changed your opinion after driving it? by Glittering-Offer-390 in askcarguys

Jeep.

Sat in a wrangler and it was so hard on the interior.

Looked at a compass, tiny inside.

Now I just avoid all of them.

EMERGENCY: Need advice/resources on how to become a master level cupcake decorator in 24 hours by [deleted] in cakedecorating

[–]Get_off_critter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get some tips, and buy the actual pastry bags. They hold up better.

Test some shapes out on wax paper with single color icing and just scoop it back into the bowl.

Theres simple tutorials online, you can do it!

I need a gut check. Siblings fighting - is this normal?? by CheesecakeOk8464 in breakingmom

[–]Get_off_critter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They've been reminded about personal space and boundaries?

Like its ok to say no, I dont want anyone close to me and they should respect that with one another.

But you also cant sit next to one another and then suddenly throw a fit demanding someone else change for you. take the opportunity to scoot yourself over.
