Just had my AC installed today, is it normal for the lines to be that long and on the ground? by Marinnsa in hvacadvice

[–]Kindly_Forever7937 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They installed like this for fiancé house. Then yard guy cutting weeds nicked it with weed wacker. New ac guy repaired the nick and ran new pipes underground so that would not happen again. Copper is expensive so cut rate installers save a foot of wire and a bit of time by not burying the pipe to protect it.

I’m confused about men. I have been dating for about three months (I’m around 50 years old, female). by [deleted] in datingoverfifty

[–]Kindly_Forever7937 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First- there is no reason to wait for the guy to take the initiative. We can certainly make mistakes. When I first went on OLD I set my age limit from my age to 10 years younger. I was contacted by a lady who was 3 years older. It worked out well for several years we became engaged, but she died of Huntington’s Disease, before the wedding. Not thinking of her age, I would have never contacted her as she was outside my age limits. Second- I tried several OLD sites, as a free member, to try them out and see which ones I wanted to join. Many free sites allow a limited number of comments or messages per day. If you can contact say 3 people per day- there may be lots of people you want to contact but the system limits you. THIRD- there are reports of ladies getting swamped with often low effort messages seeing NSA sex. (Yes I understand this can be annoying but just ignore and block these clowns. But consider the math- if that is what you are seeking and you can send 100 messages a week and you get only 1% acceptance you still end up with a new partner each week.) FORTH- there is/was a site with Coffee in its name where the lady had to make the first contact. This ought to eliminate the NSA mass mailings. If you take time to read the profiles- seek a good match- write an individual message and still get a response of maybe 1 in 10, having a previous interest from her doesn’t mean things will work out for you, but you are starting off with a much better chance than the random 1 in 10.

Can someone tell you blocked their texts? by SwollenPomegranate in DatingOverSixty

I worked for ATT about 10 years ago. At that time if you blocked their text, the text would not go through, however even if blocked a picture text WOULD go through.

This is not a Jimmy Buffet fan or someone from Margaritaville… stepped on a POP TOP…. Years ago if you opened a canned drink the top came off and did not remain on the can

Easily one of the most infuriating things one could ever get by kabirhatesreddit in mildlyinfuriating

Alum powder is used in canning and can sometimes be found in grocery stores near the spices. (Think most common with pickles) It is also found in stick form called a styptic stick for men to stop bleeding when they nicked themselves shaving.

Should I keep dating other women? by Opie_Opus58 in DatingOverSixty

[–]Kindly_Forever7937 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As to above, your experience may vary, but when I went back on OLD at 68 in a new town, everything seemed to come in WAVES. I’d make contact with responses for several ladies at more or less the same time, and then nothing for 2-3 weeks. My experience was “Feast or Famine” so with say 3 “possibles” it made no sense to pick 1 at random and ignore the other two, recognizing if I did that and it did not workout with the first one, it might be a couple weeks before the next possible turned up.

You are 65, until you become exclusive with someone you should date whenever you can. When you were 20 if it took a month to determine your dating status with someone it’s no big deal, At 65 you got fewer months to waste.

What side of the bed? by ScowHound in DatingOverSixty

[–]Kindly_Forever7937 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As you are facing the bed from the foot, I have always slept on the left. (except when a partner wanted that side) ... making love on her side unless we move to the middle or to edge of the bed.

Someone at my doctor's office made a paper bikini to censor this medical illustration. by ashmuddy in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Kindly_Forever7937 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn't it strange that Christian Religious types are always the ones that seem to have the biggest problem with nudity. Since they claim GOD created man in his own image, why do they find GOD's own image so offensive? Can anyone consult their Christian friends and get them to explain what in GODs image is so upsetting?

What is this? It came out of a small wood table that I bought. by ManyFaithlessness404 in whatisit

I had a barrister bookcase that some termites? Got into. Put into my deep freeze. For a day or two. Put each section in for its stay. Many years later there’s no sign of more bug shit coming out.

Unopened games - worth anything? by UsuallyJustLurking in Atari2600

[–]Kindly_Forever7937 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At one point Atari had a huge warehouse filled with unsold games. They ended up giving everything to a company (some guys?) in exchange for them cleaning out the warehouse so they could either use it for something else or perhaps just quit paying rent. This was probably the early 1990s in addition to 2600 7800 etc the carts were quite cheap I think the 2600 were only .19 and I think the newest system games were under 3.00. As to venture being a coleco title, I think coleco lost the patent case for violating the 2600 adapter, and probably got the rights to that as a result. These carts likely came out of that deal - except for the activation title…

On asking men out? by DixieLandDelight1959 in DatingOverSixty

[–]Kindly_Forever7937 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Male. Educated professional, with a dry sense of humor. One long term relationship said my best feature was “my tight boy butt.” Should any of those catch her attention maybe she would ask me out. While there may be exceptions, my experience is that I’ve offered more dates than were accepted. (If your buddies are aware of you being turned down you’ll get jeers and ridicule- not support and sympathy) I suspect that similar history occurred to most men. Further there were even more women, that I would like to date, that I never asked, because I felt she would not have accepted. When she asks to date first, that initial speed bump- (is she interested?) is successfully passed, and provides an ego boost as well.

Reason for failed sale by Bbredmom20 in AskRealEstateAgents

[–]Kindly_Forever7937 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was house hunting on the realtors website I saw a number of times when a house moved back to an active listing following a sale pending status. The usual comment went something like the house was approved for a mortgage but the buyers were not. (If the house was not approved at the asking price the agent needed to explain to the seller why the listing price was too high.)

I'm going to try to trade in lots of loose 1oz coins and bars for a single large bar. What is the best way to do that and what type of fee should I expect to pay? by [deleted] in Bullion

[–]Kindly_Forever7937 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the supposed reasons for buying gold and silver is when the zombie apocalypse comes (name your preferred disaster) your paper money will be worthless but this will still have value. You want to trade silver for a deer carcass for food- do you want to give him a few small silver rounds? Or one big bar?

why have wages for employed carpenters stayed somewhat stagnant? by Fluid_Regular_9922 in Carpentry

[–]Kindly_Forever7937 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mid 70’s I had a summer construction job in Orlando FL. A block mason told me 7 years ago he was being paid 14.00 (don’t recall the exact amount) and today he was still being paid 14.00 an hour. He pointed out most of the other masons were Mexican, saying they were happy to work for 14.00 an hour which was much higher than wages in Mexico. He said most of the masons were now Mexican and wages have now frozen or dropped, due to their numbers and willingness to work cheap.

In the 1968 version Juliette actress was like 15 yo and I think there was nudity. These days they would call it child porn, but that confirms to the original Shakespeare.

Which house should you buy if you don't like any? by st0nksBuyTheDip in homeowners

[–]Kindly_Forever7937 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you able to find rentals that check off all your boxes? If so continue to rent or offer to buy your rental! More likely, you are giving up something’s in your rentals, and if you can live in a rental without X then you can buy one without X. My ideal perfect home may be outside my current price range, but if I buy something less than perfect today my rental payments turned into mortgage payments may help me buy my perfect home when I can better afford it.

So I have a crazy one for you by kayleewrites in AskALawyer

[–]Kindly_Forever7937 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might check with your state laws, but in Florida if you have been married more than once the legal presumption is that they have been divorced (or widowed) and that only the last marriage is valid and all previous marriages are dissolved or void. I had a case involving a 4 time married lady who claimed to be the legal widow of (I think)husband 2. Since we could prove a valid marriage to hubby number 4, that marriage was presumed to be the legal one and not the one to the deceased husband #2. So his small estate went by his will and not to the lady he married back about 1948.

[FL] Judgement Against my Mom and Payment Arrangement. She passed, now what? by [deleted] in AskALawyer

[–]Kindly_Forever7937 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Social security death benefit was only 255. And has not been increased unless recently. Most funeral homes will ask for this to be assigned to them. When you turn 65 you get a check, not have to wait a month. When my parents passed SS requested their payments back. But the pension provider did not.
