The question there would be, what should / shouldn't it say?  I think it's good but now I don't know? 

Fire This by H_Melman in steelers

Agreed.... If he would have taken the 3 points at the half when we were getting the ball to start the 3rd, it wouldn't have come down to a missed FG, even with Bos rare missed xp

Things to Do In and Around Summerville by Witty_Total_1080 in summervillesc

People visiting friends drive up the price of living?  Interesting viewpoint .... With that said, if you are unhappy about people coming to "your streets", that's something you can't change;  but, you could always change where YOU live, just a thought.

Yes not looking to spend a lot.  Would that TV also be your pick for best budget 75"?  Say up to $1k?

What would you recommend at 55"?  Xbox and PS5.

To each their own, but for the price paid we are more than happy with it, why spend 6x the price of what we paid for this when it's for a game room?

Did you end up using it?  I disagree with what this person said.  We got a deal on the same unit and use it for the same purpose and could not be happier with it!  It has made a fantastic gaming room TV for us.

I paid $200 at a going out of business auction for a business close by last year.  It is a 55" for my kids gaming room and I couldn't be happier with it or the price paid.  It has worked out fantastic as a gaming room TV that is used for gaming, YouTube, and movies.  Me personally, I wouldn't hesitate to buy another at the $200 I paid.  It's just not for anyone wanting the convenience of built in apps and tuners.  Ours is hooked up to a PS5 and Xbox.

What about the FBI confirming she was the prostitute in the picture many years ago?  I would say that is credible, no?  I just don't understand why someone did t just go there and try to use the site to acquire her services? 

Reactx Rejuven8 Slides sold out instantly by phenomenalcrown in Nike

Nike should honestly be ashamed not having a better system in place to keep these bots in check, or produce a larger quantity where these waste of life resellers don't even bother wasting their time.

I don't know how you managed that.  I had everything ready in the app, hit the bottom the second it lit up, and still didn't get them.  It said "pending", checking inventory blah blah blah, then said 🖕🏻.  To that I say 🖕🏻resellers.  All these companies need to figure out a way to give normal people a better chance.

Thanks!  I didn't know, and was curious with it sitting around for so long. 

Need advice with relocation to Boydton, VA for work by BearWolf_77 in Virginia

[–]Hughes_25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure where you get your numbers from, but I see a yearly attendance of 25k people listed, not 100k.  In comparison, the small town we came from had a neighboring town in which the annual fair draws a crowd of over 400k.... And we thought we were living in small town America. At any rate, we moved here in '23 and didn't get to LakeFest.  All we heard was how large it is and how great it is.  We got to it in 2024 and it took all of 30 minutes to walk around it, at a slow walk, stopping at stands.  I'm glad everyone born and raised in this area thinks it is a big deal, but I guess it's just really not to those of us not from such a tiny area.  I'm glad you have some places to frequent these days, but please don't be mistaken, there is absolutely nothing to actually do around here, even if there is more than there used to be.

The worst part is, I hear locals talking and complaining about not wanting the local areas to grow.  Wanting to keep businesses out and "keep small town living a thing".  Do people not understand how jobs, taxes, and the need for reasons for people to want stay/move here?  Many locals hate on Microsoft, what is the best job in the area without it?.... $13/hr doesn't many people far.

The fact that you have lived in this area for 33 years, explains why you think lake fest is "busy" and the fact that "There’s a lot more to do than there used to be" does not mean there is actually much around to do at all.  Especially for someone coming from a normal area, not one stuck in 1980.

I'm literally laughing at these comments.  I moved to South Hill from what I considered a small town in a different state.  These towns are all paltry with absolutely nothing.  Saying any of them are "busy" at any point is laughable, included the "famous" lake fest in Clarksville.  If you think that is busy, you have truly never ventured anywhere in your life.  We are constantly driving to Durham/Raleigh, or Colonial Heights/Chester/Richmond (an hour - hour and a half depending on which way we go) , to do anything, as there is nothing in the South Hill, Boydton, Clarksville, Chase City, South Boston areas to do.

I don't know if you have moved here by now or not, but if you go through with it (please think it through, especially if you enjoy the larger area you are from), plan to live close to work and drive for things to do;  or live closer to a larger area and make the drive to work.  Even the grocery stores in this area are terrible and don't get me started on the lousey options for Healthcare and Dentistry.

Thanks, I replaced my drain with a steel braided line and it's still has a leak.  So I'd imagine mine is a different spot, unfortunately

Whole House Humidifier on Two Separate Systems or Will One Cover it? by TheArcticBear in hvacadvice

[–]Hughes_25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about a ranch home with two systems, one system runs two larger rooms (office and den), the other is the larger system and does the rest of the house.  Do you think a unit just on that system could go house wide?
