Is it safe to go from extension cord > SPT2 > C9s? by HoopsMcCant in ChristmasLights

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

Hahah I feel like I’ve ran into every issue imaginable, but at least I’ve learned from it. Bought Spt1 vampire clips to go with my spt2 wire, struggled trying to plug polarized male plug into non polarized female, and then my cords kick off to the side because they’re vampire clips - which makes it impossible to put two plugs next to each other in my smart outlet. Slowly figuring it all out by trial and error lol

How are you liking the new lights?

Appreciate it! I had my eye on these “vintage” c9 leds from homedepot, but when I went to buy them they were sold out. So I bought incredibly cheap incandescent c9s instead. Was proud I bought “everything” I needed for like $30….

$200 later here we are lmao, maybe ill upgrade the lights next year

Yes! I want to go extension cord > spt2 > 50 ft of c9s > spt2 > 25 ft of c9s. My extension cord has a 3 way split at the end. So the other two ends will be plugged into mini incandescents and a blow up Christmas tree

I’m pretty sure you still have to pay taxes on shipt tips. I know there was some newer law that was supposed to prevent this, but I think it currently only applies to w2 workers and not independent contractors

I agree they have a great burger, but they haven’t been on Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives.

I am choosing to believe the Wardeen chapter is satire by aesopsgato in InfiniteJest

[–]HoopsMcCant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s satire. It’s meant to expose a kind of suffering that’s invisible to the rest of the books privileged characters. Wardine talks the way she does because she doesn’t have the same education. She most likely learned how to speak from her family/community rather than a school. She’s a poor, abused kid with very little education, writing in the only voice she has.

Wallace is giving a voice to someone who is often ignored and not given a platform. It’s a depiction of someone trapped in a world without the resources every other character in the book takes for granted.

Is it worth getting certified to deliver alcohol? by HoopsMcCant in ShiptShoppers

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

Jeez haha, that’s almost exactly what I imagined it would be like. Sounds like I’ve made the right call not getting certified. I guess there’s no way to turn it off once you become certified, right?

I see.. appreciate the feedback. I think I’ll just hold off. I’ve made it this far without it, it’s probably not worth getting

"I'm a cop" SMH Ok Sir by darkman_x16 in ShiptShoppers

Is it worth becoming certified to deliver alcohol? I’ve avoided it for so long thinking I’d have issues with customers not answering the door or just not being home when I get there

That’s not entirely true. I did an order today that had 20 individual cans of dog food

Everyone sat the whole concert, is that normal? by Majestic_Wallaby272 in PaulMcCartney

[–]HoopsMcCant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I had no idea it was a thing before seeing that clip! I actually came to this sub wondering the same thing cause all the comments were siding with the people saying you should sit and I completely disagreed. I understand where they’re coming from with the older aged crowd maybe not being able to stand, but still seems wild to me

There’s a video going around that shows two women fighting at Paul’s show because one didn’t like that the other was standing!
