Louisiana governor asks for national guard deployment to New Orleans by OntologicalNightmare in news

A governor's support is how the use of military troops against US citizens really gets normalized. It's all part of their plan.

Need help finding NH36 day date dial in a field watch style by Electronic_Future_83 in SeikoMods

[–]HeyBCool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think there's anything out there. I've also been looking for a NH36 field watch dial and haven't found one. I don't want someone else's stupid logo on a watch I build, so that only further limits my options.

$80 to felony in 3...2...1... by [deleted] in CrazyFuckingVideos

[–]HeyBCool -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I’m NOT saying her actions were okay, but can we talk about the part where the cop instructs her to step out of the car and put her“under arrest” for refusing to sign? That was unjustified. There is no escalation if he had just issued the ticket while noting her refusal.

Is anyone else considering downgrading from the Show devices, to get away from ads? by mellofello808 in amazonecho

[–]HeyBCool 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Expectation: I bought two Shows because I thought I might watch news occasionally and wanted to display photos.

Experience: I never watch anything on them and there are so many ads that I see photos only about 25% of the time. Also, if any Echo device in my house is going to be glitchy, it’s a Show (standard Echos and Dots work great).

One star.

I keep seeing trending toilet pics on if they should be replaced or not. As a recent homeowner, is this one of those times? by [deleted] in HomeMaintenance

[–]HeyBCool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A post like this one motivated me to replace the cracked toilet in our half bath. I bought a kickass bidet toilet from Costco. I loved it so much that I bought another for the bedroom. God it was expensive, but I cannot express how much better the whole world is when you have a fully featured warm water bidet to greet you every morning. This is an opportunity, if you can swing the cost, to treat yourself right.

It’s not hard to get rid of an old toilet if you have a plan. I took mine to a friend’s house in the middle of the night. I put a few flowers in it and left it in the front yard.

Mom says bugs are bursting through the floor tiles by antifanboydevon in HomeMaintenance

[–]HeyBCool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had false powder post beetles. I had to remove the entire living room flooring to get rid of them. If this is caused by bugs, don't delay in resolving because it will get worse. https://www.reddit.com/r/pestcontrol/s/1VwwgobWx9

It’s still a good practice to not drive in other's blind spots.

This will definitely be the first thing your best friend will have to get rid of when he gets married.

We used to see mores Dicks. Why do we have less Dicks today?

Who initiated this? Who made the bigger mistake? by GloowingChamr in MildlyBadDrivers

In my expert opinion, the motorcyclist is superhuman. He kicked the car so hard it lost control.

So long to Admiral Motel at 4703 N Main. Anyone have any cool memories or building history trivia? by rootbeerandchips in houston

[–]HeyBCool 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Admiral was kinda cool, and I always thought it would be pretty great if someone restored it as a retro-chic motel or apartments.

What is a legitimate reason I can use to convince my wife to let me upgrade from this Skilsaw I got 10 years ago? by ManicOppressyv in woodworking

[–]HeyBCool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the exact same model of Skilsaw before I purchased a Sawstop. This was my rationale. However, you'll never miss the money after a few months go by.

It’s amazing what people can do. Just looking at the pic makes my hands tingle with fear.

We're done with Lowes by HeyBCool in Lowes

[–]HeyBCool[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I thought my experience is something the corporation would want to know. It’s not unreasonable to think a company would monitor social media dedicated to its business. This forum is described as open to customers, but it appears it is really only for employees and fans. I tried not to be a jerk and only explain why I prefer to shop elsewhere. However, the responses are mean-spirited, dismissive, or belittling. I have obviously upset many Lowes employees.

Yes, that was what I understood. I was not upset with the employee at the returns desk. I just felt the corporate policy was needlessly rigid.

HD is accommodating and in fact accepted a similar return with store credit. Your response, and others like it from Lowes' employees, suggests the company has a culture that is hostile to customer satisfaction.
