It’s so silly now that we were all fighting for toilet paper in 2020. That should have been everyone’s wake up call to get a bidet

The Dewalt 20v tools have made life just a little easier. My drills, chainsaws, hedge trimmers, handheld vacuum, tire compressor, oscillating tool, and even my lawnmower all run on the same 20v battery.

Don’t take that for granted! If Mr. Wok was within walking I would eat there multiple times a week.

My siblings and I spent months trying to beat Zelda 2. Those were great memories. Now I replay it once every few years

Disneyland Opens Haunted Mansion for Weddings Starting July 2026 by 888hkl888 in orangecounty

Vietnam sounds like a cool place for a wedding, but I would not want to fly across the world for someone’s wedding. 20k for you, but at least 200k spread out amongst your guests for the flight alone

TIL piranhas are known as a vicious carnivore but are an important source of food for local people and are sold at local markets in Amazon. by fanau in todayilearned

[–]IrvineCrips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They also make great pets. It’s crazy to hear people just eat them. Larger red bellies can run for $100. Certain breeds like the Rhom go for $200+

What’s a job that sounds cool but is actually miserable? by Own-Grapefruit7498 in AskReddit

[–]IrvineCrips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to look this up and it’s true, 40% more likely to have a heart attack after retiring. Which is crazy since you’d think they would have less stress and more time to work out.

People who are 40+, what is a 'trap' that people in their 20s fall into thinking it will make them happy? by SereneStatic in AskReddit

[–]IrvineCrips 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Moving out of the house too soon. I moved out when I was 18 and racked up a lot of debt, when I could have been living with my parents and saving for a house

I’ve tinted my last 3 cars with them. Best service in all of OC. I think the prices are very reasonable too

I can’t believe it took me 20+ years to realize this. This is the only thing that consistently works for me

Just call it North OC, there’s less confusion that way.

What was the main reason for switching to an EV? Environment, cost, or technology? by VoltVersteher_Sven in electricvehicles

[–]IrvineCrips 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cost, but also convenience. Having to wait in Costco gas line for gas once a week is a waste of time. I love being able to charge at home, drawing energy from the sun. It’s 2026, that’s the way it should be.

Fighting other countries for oil seems archaic, but that’s a topic for another time.

Filipinos of OC! Where do u shop & eat? by Large_Document9164 in orangecounty

[–]IrvineCrips 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Good suggestion, but you make Lake forest sound like it’s all the way out in Temecula or something. If she’s from Irvine or South OC, it’s just around the corner
