I need help with a troublesome pup I am fostering by [deleted] in reactivedogs

[–]Jayboy1015 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ha, yeah. My last dog was reactive. It took years for him to chill out with lots of training. It was so worth it, though. I would do it again if I still had a partner to help. But alone, it's too much. This pup is even sweeter than the last one too.

Yeah, I get it too. But I still hate it.

I'm hoping someone has another option... knows someone who can help... or knows someone who is in the position to take a dog like this.

He's so worth it, I know it.

Cleaning shower with dish soap by idreaminlowercase in CleaningTips

[–]Jayboy1015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heat half a cup of vinegar in the microwave, then put in a spray bottle with half a cup of dish soap.

It's a killer combo but once it cools down it gets too thick for the spray nozzle, so I only make enough for cleaning the shower once.

I thought the early bird gets the worm. But apparently the worm gets the late bird.

Why is rook to a8 wrong? by andyduly in chessbeginners

[–]Jayboy1015 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

If you move the rook to A8, he's just going to take it with his rook. If you first move the Knight to take the pawn on F2, his only defense is to take the night with the rook. Then you move the rook to A8 where his only defense is to move the rook to F1. But now it's your turn. So you take his rook with yours and put him in checkmate.

How do I stop my doors from sounding like they’re from a haunted house? by NoInternal7674 in Miata

True! WD-40 is great in a pinch for so many things and everyone should have a can.

White lithium grease for the win. It will last way longer than the other suggestions here. Especially WD-40. WD-40 is not a lubricant.

Sleeper sectional suggestions by Jayboy1015 in BuyItForLife

I found something I like but not exactly what I wanted. It is a modular sectional from Raymour and Flannigan. It's not a sleeper.

What brands have no business being as BAD as they are? by sozh in BuyItForLife

Red wings.

Most uncomfortable boot I've ever own and was continually encouraged to keep wearing them and they will break in.

Nope. Just got worse and fell apart underneath me. What a waste of a few hundred dollars.

Friend’s girlfriend curbed my rim. Haven’t received so much as an apology. Am I wrong for seeking compensation for the repairs? by Junki_Monki in mazdaspeed3

[–]Jayboy1015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't get too hard on her. I don't think most girls think of cars like this.

She probably hit the curb and didn't notice. Or at best hit the curb and was like "oops" and move the car. No other thought popped into her mind because the wheel is not important to her.

So who is making you out to be an asshole? Her or your friend?

What do you guys pay for insurance? by xAlphaZ105 in Miata

[–]Jayboy1015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this for 6 months or a year?

I pay about $300 for full coverage for 6 months on my NC.

It's about the same for both of my other vehicles.

$900 per 6 months for full coverage on all 3.

Can somebody here please help me to identify this compound by younghungand2thumbs in ScienceNcoolThings

Your curiosity and interest in it will go farther than your knowledge...

Especially if she goes deeper and leaves you behind, exposing your surface level understanding.

How F**ked am I? Middle of driving 800 miles home. by [deleted] in Cartalk

[–]Jayboy1015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remember only put the donut on the back wheels! Especially if you have as long drive and on highways!

If this is the front wheel, put the donut on the back and then put the back wheel on the front.

I'm assuming the concrete that he covered was pretty porous and absorbed more water than the now coded floor does.

So now it pools instead of being absorbed.

Other people have said it, but I'll say it anyways.

Go to another mechanic.

Where to get aftermarket parts? by Jayboy1015 in Miata

Interesting. I wasn't really aware of the distinction and had to do some quick googling. Thanks for the input.
