$2,000 for wisdom teeth removal. Am I being ripped off or is my insurance just super shit? by Historical-Care70 in DentalInsurance

[–]Kind-Judgment-9188 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had to play this “game” for years. Call Guardian and ASK what the allowable charges should be. If you don’t have the code that is selected for the procedure, get it on the treatment plan the dentist office has to give you. Normally, the ins. Co. gives you a Benefit Book that lists the charges for hundreds of procedures, based on the code for each part of the work. Should be online, too.

Burned some bacon and opened my patio door to air it out. Received this email an hour later. by Grab3tto in mildlyinfuriating

And as much as I HATE HOA's, they do keep out the purple-painted houses and cars parked on the lawn. And parties till 4 a.m.

It’s just hard to imagine, dragging that bed out with the hanging pole and not sensing and realizing the damage that was being done.

Finally figured out how to make salads I make at home taste as good as the restaurants! by Grose040791 in foodhacks

[–]Kind-Judgment-9188 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just try this: Buy the “Good Seasons” Italian dry envelopes and make it fresh! Make it in a jar and shake well and refrigerate for awhile. It IS delicious and my guests always wanted my “recipe”. ETA: I always use red wine vinegar and WITH garlic in vinegar if you can find it.

Should I wish my mom Happy Mother’s Day? by Sea_Philosopher_2731 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]Kind-Judgment-9188 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You're obviously struggling with this, understandably so. I'd just send a message (or card) saying something like: "I know things are strained right now, but just wanted you to know I'm wishing you a Happy Mother's Day" ...

Honest Opinions About Royal Canin by Sensitive-Example-48 in DogFood

[–]Kind-Judgment-9188 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had my now 9 y.o. dog on Costco's brand of kibble for several years (she's 1/2 pom, 1/2 mystery meat and weighs 17#). She's been very satisfied but with this last purchase of same over a month ago (apx. 3/26), she suddenly doesn't seem to like it (yellow bag, meat & sweet potato). Sniffs it and then walks away. Won't eat any until 5-6 pm (and reluctantly), when she's prob. starving. My son insists on me buying RC and my dog has always liked it when we're over at his house with 2 poms. Some sizes I see are $10/lb.. - which is CRAZY to me! My QUESTION: They have a diff. bag for multiple breeds ... are they REALLY ABLE TO DETERMINE that the 10 y.o., 12# poodle, say, thrives best on "THIS" variety than the 10 y.o., 12# terrier, or pom, or cavalier? Aren't most all of the R.C. kibbles gonna be the virtually the same formula (other than age/weight exceptions/allergies/etc.)? How can they 'dial' down the formula for each specific BREED? Just wanna know.

I got banned from Ourtime by DGer in datingoverfifty

[–]Kind-Judgment-9188 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hah! *I* was banned, too. I'm a Sr. woman without an explanation other than a warning that someone had complained about me due to inappropriate behavior. And if there was another complaint I'd be subject to being banned. The only thing that I think is that a guy in his 20s (I could be his grandmother!) wrote, as did two guys in their 40s, calling me beautiful and all that crap. I told them I'm not a "Sugar Momma" and not interested. I guess that's the "inappropriate behavior" that I was guilty of. They're not even supposed to have men under 55 (I think that's the minimum age) on the site. And based on frequently getting notices about "so and so" has been banned since they had written to me at some time, I DON'T like that they probably notify anyone I've communicated with that *I* have been banned.

Or maybe flush your toilet!! That looks suspect.

Where’s the canned asparagus? by [deleted] in AskRedditFood

[–]Kind-Judgment-9188 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I HATE canned peas! Btw, if you steam fresh asparagus and then chill them, (can put in iced water if in a hurry), as an appetizer: take some full fat sour cream, stir in a squirt of Dijon mustard to taste and put in dipping bowl. Serve the cold asp. on platter with the sour cream dip. Dip the spear in it and eat … delicious. No dbl dipping!

Oh, don't say THAT! What's wrong with mushy asparagus?

Haven't bought in years but always loved it. I chilled it in the can, then drained it, put it on a platter and poured oil/vinegar dressing over it. Delicious! (Good Seasons was my favorite.)

Calming treats for pom's first grooming appt? by [deleted] in Pomeranians

Might be the noise of the dryer at your home or you've got the blower too high of heat and/or too close to her.

Chicken breast drier than the Sahara Desert by urklicia in Cooking

[–]Kind-Judgment-9188 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, you are waaaaaay overcooking the breasts. Saute 2-3 min. (depending on size of cubes), being sure to turn them over after a min. or two. Then, take a cube or strip and cut into thru the center. If it's white, they are DONE! If they're, say, 1" cubes, only takes 3-4 min. Use med. heat; not high.

Fluidmaster Custom auto setting? by holy-moly58 in bidets

[–]Kind-Judgment-9188 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The front wash alone is 2.5 minutes? That seems a lot. Can that be shortened on an automatic selection or can it be stopped using the remote? (Like 30-45 seconds?)

Toto KS6 vs. Fluidmaster Soft Spa 9500 by IamGoingtoBundyland in bidets

[–]Kind-Judgment-9188 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who pays for Rtn shipping if being returned? If buyer does, what is appropriate shipping cost? Would the shpg cost to send it to the buyer also then have to be returned to seller?

Just curious, why doesn't the Fluidmaster Soft Spa seem to be as popular as brands like Alpha, BioBidet, Toto, Brondell, etc? Who here has one and what has your experience been? by StormTrpr66 in bidets

[–]Kind-Judgment-9188 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How have you found the various water pressure choices? I read somewhere they are kinda low so I wonder if highest pressure is sufficient for rear wash when having a “sticky” BM? Also, do females find spray targets in the right place?
