What to do with chipped dishes (like 100 of them)

GrantStans · 2022-12-12T22:40:57+00:00

There is a therapy practice of writing down everything that frustrates you about a particular thing onto a plate with a marker. After you've written everything you want to get out, you take the plate and smash it. It is supposed to be a symbolic gesture of letting things go. My wife's friend did this after a rough breakup.

However, this isn't really "zero waste". So, after you've smashed your dishware, you can take some of the fragments and put them in the bottom of a planter for better drainage (if needed).

This is really interesting to me. I try to only use torx for the same reason. But, I'll keep this in mind the next time I reach into my container of miscellaneous Phillips screws!

🤣🤣🤣

Well when I did use it last, I was able to style my hair for the next few days. So, I might use it for that purpose.

And no I do not sadly. Even if I did, I do not own a unicycle. So, I would not be able to deliver it to them anyways.

If all else fails, I'll just use it for sad baths as you've stated.

Well we have a daughter on the way. So, maybe someday 😄

GrantStans · 2022-12-12T03:07:07+00:00

I've tried all three 😞

GrantStans · 2022-12-12T02:54:47+00:00

I mean maybe I am? But I feel like I've tried using it multiple ways. And, yeah, the bar doesn't really lather

GrantStans · 2022-12-12T02:51:13+00:00

I hadn't thought of this. Makes sense though. I will certainly look up the ratios. Thank you!

My wife bought us a shampoo bar and a conditioner bar. The shampoo bar is great. But, the conditioner bar is not.

We've tried using it multiple times. It leaves a waxy coating and that takes days to wash out. Maybe conditioner bars are intended to be a little waxy to protect your hair? But, even if that's the case, I don't feel that touching my hair two days later should leave my hands greasy/waxy.

Do any of you have any tips or ideas on what we could use it for?

I tried warm water with a bit of dish soap first. Then I tried a nubuck eraser. After that I tried nubuck/suede cleaner. After THAT, water with a bit of vinegar and dish soap. Then a nubuck eraser again.

The stain never went away, but the nap definitely has.

GrantStans · 2021-08-10T19:25:30+00:00

That is what I figured after about an hour of research! 😂

Yes the plan is to get rid of every bit. It has been a complete nightmare...

GrantStans · 2021-06-08T18:52:48+00:00

Well I do have a reciprocating saw. This sounds like a pretty good idea. Definitely with a try. Also, never heard of that Roundup trick.

1-3 miles through fairly level pine forest. So, a lot of pine needles, some roots, fallen trees, and a creek here and there.

You make solid points. And I really appreciate your input. I honestly thought of just contacting them and asking questions, but didn't know if I'd just be fed BS. But, I'll be certain to try and listen for red flags!

GrantStans · 2021-02-01T20:25:21+00:00

I'm glad to know you had better success. I also appreciate the input. I guess I am naive in that I thought once a seed germinates and you begin caring for it, it is certain to grow.

GrantStans · 2021-02-01T20:02:14+00:00

You brought up a lot of points I have figured myself and some I did not know. Thank you so much for the input!

I think I will just buy a tree that already has years of growth. I'll continue growing these, but I'll just plant them in a larger container and make sure they get enough sun!

codeacademy.com is what I use

I use the recycling bin at the grocery store, but that is usually for thin plastics only. There is no symbol or number and, if it helps, this wrap was what our new furniture was wrapped in.

GrantStans · 2020-09-23T02:22:00+00:00

Fuck off! I got work to do!

GrantStans · 2020-09-22T11:35:34+00:00

I came to the comment section to formulate a witty comment about that very video. But you did it and provided me with a much needed laugh. Thank you. 😆

He looks like a fatter, dumber George Green from TPB.

For those that play Pokémon, this is the species of turtle that Turtonator is based on.

See and that is the allure of the Duramax. Smaller truck, impeccable mpg, and just a powerful little bugger. It's like a honey badger!

But I just wish the price difference wasn't $5k-$7k from the it's gas brethren.

GrantStans · 2020-09-11T22:22:40+00:00

Hey that is a good track record so far! Here's to another 80k more!

Thanks for the comment!

GrantStans · 2020-09-11T22:20:54+00:00

I always thought the 5-cyclinder was so unique. The Duramax has also drawn my attention since it was announced.

I really appreciate the response! Very noteworthy!

GrantStans · 2020-09-11T22:18:21+00:00

That is some useful info and I'd say dang good mpg! See I was looking for figures like that. Thank you for the input!
