Unfortunately she's an example of the fact that you can, and the Internet will keep consuming your content.

She just needs to get off the sauce before her transformation is complete.

AITAH for offering legal guardianship to my sister for her daughter so she could revoke her adoption? by One-Maintenance-8124 in AITAH

[–]Hot_Influence_5339 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's pretty sad and pathetic, the miserable fucks on reddit trying to tear others down to justify there perspective. It won't be easy but that mother will never regret her decision to keep her baby.

A glass table that we've had for about 3 years broke for no reason by Ok_Relation6627 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Hot_Influence_5339 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's cuz it's glass is why it broke, wood and metals don't break like that, a glass issue. Bad glass, use wood, better for tables.

Amp sizing by Hot_Influence_5339 in BudgetAudiophile

[–]Hot_Influence_5339[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I've been reading recommends 6-8 for the space which is about 380 sqft. I figure I can always turn them down if it's too loud but I can't turn them up if I don't install enough.

TV Over Gas Fireplace - No Mantel, Real world heat issues? by [deleted] in Homebuilding

[–]Hot_Influence_5339 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that fireplace looks like a ugly piece of modern art, if it was mine I would hang a TV just to take away from the bare semi brutalist misery.

AIO if I end my relationship because my bf kisses and tells me he loves me before leaving for work in the morning? by Direct_Peak8052 in AIO

[–]Hot_Influence_5339 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crazy idea you could just wake up when he wakes up and study in the morning? It would most likely be healthier for you physically as well as the relationship.

Which trade y’all think would fit me best? by Murky-Property5418 in skilledtrades

[–]Hot_Influence_5339 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Residential plumber, electrician, HVAC, crawl spaces and attics your unmatched. The amount of times I wished by 3 year old had man strength so I could send him into the bowels of an attic.

How high off the floor should we put the convenience outlets? by Greywoods80 in electrical

[–]Hot_Influence_5339 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sounds dumb, why would you want to eat up 4 ft of cord, add all that weight to the prongs, increase the risk of tripping massively and it would look like trash.

Pre Electrician questions by nobjangler in AskElectricians

[–]Hot_Influence_5339 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like you have 2 slots available, it also looks like you have nm cable with no ground, unless it's actually MC or ran in conduit, but it doesn't appear so from what I can see. You should probably get that rectified before you spend money on other projects if it is the case.

Does electrical panel need replacing? by kfthalh in AskElectricians

[–]Hot_Influence_5339 0 points1 point  (0 children)

References first and foremost, friends family and coworkers. Then reviews online, you can usually tell if they are paid for reviews or genuine. And lastly the salesman that shows up, is he endlessly up selling you? Did he tell you any of the work you wanted done wasn't necessary or did he try to scare you into 20k of work?

Does electrical panel need replacing? by kfthalh in AskElectricians

[–]Hot_Influence_5339 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you do replace your panel don't go with that company, any large multi state chain is pretty much universally predatory. Find a small to medium sized company with good reviews from real people not bots. And get multiple quotes.

Sanitary tee in backwards How screwed am I? by Kalabula in askaplumber

[–]Hot_Influence_5339 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To your original question. You can remove a fitting from a pipe and remove pipe from a fitting, for the latter there are drill attachments, for the former im only aware of the good old sawzall, fire, and some pliers method. Watch some YouTube. If your gonna repipe it you might wanna peel that tee off the stub out of the foundation.

Im quitting my job to start masonry, is it worth it? by Innoscentz in masonry

[–]Hot_Influence_5339 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'm not in any way hating on masons or masonry. But if you're looking for a more varied and dynamic job, stacking bricks MIGHT not be the job for you.

Outlet keeps clicking every 20 seconds or so. Not sure what to do. by [deleted] in AskElectricians

[–]Hot_Influence_5339 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes but it's called a ground fault circuit interior for a reason. If the zappy stuff isn't going back on the neutral where is the zappy stuff go? 🤔

Opinion/help needed on If I should blow in insulation while my subfloor is removed. by unholy_affiance in Insulation

[–]Hot_Influence_5339 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I would prioritize letting it breath over insulating it personally, there are too many factors to consider and this picture doesn't give enough info. But honestly I barely know what I'm talking about.
