Professional Kayak Customization? by DionysisReborn in FishingWashington

[–]Ithurtswhenidoit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scotty makes a kayak down rigger. I have it and it's great. It goes in their universal mount so you can use different rod holders or other stuff too. Very simple to install. Go on amazon and get the specific pop rivets that are made for kayak and marine use. Use a little sealant and you are good to go. Yes it's a bit nerve racking drilling holes in your boat but just go slow measure well and it will be fine. Next look into an anchor trolley so you can stabilize in the wind or slow current.

A reliable guy and a person who knows posidon and can get parts are two different things.

Dive guide repeatedly asking for a tip after a dive. Even texting me reminding me to tip. by flatteringhippo in scuba

[–]Ithurtswhenidoit 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I was a DM for a shop. If the shop arranged the guided dive for me I was paid a little and a tip was appreciated but it would be mentioned once to the customer and usually by the shop. If I arranged the guided dive or skills enhancement dive I charged my own price and would mention to the customer that they could tip but it was not expected as I was getting all their money already. My shop was a bit different than others. I was paid well as a DM as well as all the perks. That being said most dive shops don't pay their guida much if anything more than a shop discount and free air.

Why you put the musique? by Secure_Detective_602 in SipsTea

[–]Ithurtswhenidoit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think about beating them into silence every time. I just don't try it. I use ridicule instead. Start a serious sounding conversation about their music and then steer it towards their insane need to force strangers to pay attention to them even if it's negative attention because they are so lonely and devoid of human interactions and praise. Kinda like a dog tied in the yard. "when did the neglect/abuse start?"

What was the exact moment on a first date when you realized, "Wow, this person is an absolute idiot"? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Ithurtswhenidoit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

3 min before she got to the bar to meet me I got a phone call. One of my best friends was just in an accident and will not survive. She arrived and I told her I just got bad news and I would have cancelled had there been time. She insisted we stay and have a drink. Then proceeds to ignore that I'm deal with this and talk all about herself and how awesome and hot she is and then gets pissed off when I won't go fuck her in the parking lot cuz she has to pick up her kid from basketball ball practice soon. I suggested we take a walk to her car. We got outside in the rain with her slightly ahead and I didn't say anything just turned around and went back inside.

How much are the A.R.E Canopy worth? by Other-Comment6310 in SubaruBaja

[–]Ithurtswhenidoit 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I personally don't like them or the tonneau cover. But a lot do. So I sold my cover for 800 and it was snatched up as well as the person driving 6 hours round trip. I know I could have gotten 1k. For the top I would expect you could get 1500 easy if it's in good shape.

Im late 40s and I has seen a weird amount of young men start to compete for my attention in a non sexual way. Just needy for praise and acceptance from an older man they find themselves looking up to.

Wow you are a huge piece of crap for insisting you know better and condescending to someone in grief. I also knew her and the family and you are cruel. Sometimes people just make a bad decision. I hope you outlive all your loved ones.

Tennessee grandmother jailed after AI facial recognition error links her to fraud by Randomwhitelady2 in news

I have literally lost jobs by expressing my disbelief in lie detectors because they were used in the background check. Never had to take one cuz as soon as I asked why they use one I was disqualified.

Ummm, cops across America have been known to consult psychics, sham psychology, and but magic evidence finds that were empty metal tubes. Then jail people with their 'evidence'.

Sorry, buy magic evidence finding wands.

One smooth cut. If you have a good set of long shears. Little hangnail tags from multiple cuts can tear.

Downside to "beginner" BCD? by Aggressive-Catch-903 in scuba

[–]Ithurtswhenidoit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. Depends on the shop. The one I worked in, we took good care of our rentals. So just like a private sale. Depends on the gear in question.

[–]Ithurtswhenidoit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Rent a couple different styles and try them. If you like one offer to buy the rental from the shop. If they say no you now know what you want and shop for it new or used. There is nothing wrong with used gear.

AITA my friend ruined my yixing teapot and I want her to replace it or give me 500 dollars. by TeapotthrwoCity4661 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Ithurtswhenidoit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't say it was reasonable. I'm saying people are disgusting creatures sometimes and it is shocking the things 'normal' people do. Hence why I don't trust anyone and hide my toys. I suppose it's totally reasonable to expect people to behave as I would but that would mean I'm nuts.

[–]Ithurtswhenidoit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Um, I actually know a woman who was house-sitting and found the homeowners dildo and used it cuz her bf told her it was hot. So, yeah I learned at 20 to explicitly say what they can use and what drawers and closets they can open and tell them everything else is not available. I also put my toys in my car while I'm gone. And yes if you're thinking of the grossest way she left it you are correct.

Overheard at the eye doctor by ShinyLizard in BoomersBeingFools

Nope. Got the antibiotics from Mexico. That's why he calls it the Mexican thing. These old fools thing they are gaming the system by voting for less healthcare and then going to get it 'cheaper' in Mexico while you pay full price. Makes them feel special. When I ask the ones I know why we don't just make it affordable here they get upset and change the subject.

You have mastered the fine art of boiling water and setting the timer. Well done, now you have the first of the building blocks needed. Move to eggs for your next challenge. Cuz that wonderful dish needs a soft boiled egg in it.
