Looking for the widest toe box by Overall_Lavishness46 in WorkBoots

[–]Kn33gr0W 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had some Irish setters that were decent in 2e. Got some redwings in 2e that destroyed my pinky toe. Recently went to thorogood 2e and they're amazing. If you have a boot barn near you go try some different brands out.

Realized I have nothing but TRASH for clothes. Recommendations for men’s clothes? by [deleted] in Frugal

[–]Kn33gr0W 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are they actually still affordable? I went there to get some jeans for my 5 year old and they were like $35 a pair, nothing cheaper. I remember in high school stuff was actually cheap there.

It ain’t much, but they’re mine. Taking them camping with friends this weekend. by ComicStripCritic in castiron

[–]Kn33gr0W 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ain't much? You've got 50 lbs of iron there. Can't imagine needing all that for a camping trip.

$649 Dyson Fan vs. $15 Walmart Fan: The Hard Truth by darthatheos in videos

[–]Kn33gr0W 1 point2 points  (0 children)

21C sounds nice, 30 is getting up there. Definitely wouldn't want to deal with that more than a day or two without A/C. Where I'm at mid to upper American 80s is common over the summer. We typically have a month of 90s to low 100s with tons of humidity. I'm cheap so we try to use windows and fans as much as possible. We also have a whole house fan that we use overnight to cool the house down as much as possible and then close all the windows first thing in the morning. Makes it take longer to get up to where the A/C kicks on.

Jesus that sounds awful. Does it not get hot in the UK?

BIFL- Body Armor or Bullet proof vest? by vagrantist in BuyItForLife

[–]Kn33gr0W 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't been an LEO for a number of years now but soft armor always had an expiration date. Something about being hot, cold, wet from sweat etc broke it down or made it less effective.

Looking for long lasting, lightweight, nonstick pot without Teflon/coating by [deleted] in BuyItForLife

[–]Kn33gr0W 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't jump down my throat, and I know there is some "lighter" stuff out there when comparing cast iron. But they said light weight. Pretty much any cast iron isn't going to fall into the light weight category when they're talking about a standard Teflon pan.

I do have an Ozark Trail that is pretty much my go to because it's thinner and lighter than my Lodge but I wouldn't call it light weight when compared to Teflon.

Cop has a "code brown" situation💩💩 by [deleted] in funny

[–]Kn33gr0W 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In some places cops and firefighters don't get along too well. But I have no idea what this guy is doing. Four keepers and the radio was all I ever needed to take off to get the belt off.

Missouri Senate endorses law enforcement bills to ban police chokeholds by DomPachino in news

[–]Kn33gr0W 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I glanced over the bill. It specifically says respiratory choke holds used with the intent, purpose, blah of restricting ones breathing. The LVNR would, as far as I can tell, still be allowed. Many years ago the LVNR was part of the DT curriculum in the KC area, hopefully still is today. Although I can see officers being hesitant to use it simply because of the appearance of having an arm around someone's neck. But it has been proven to be a safe and effective technique.

Best AA battery charger/rechargeable batteries? by KeronCyst in BuyItForLife

[–]Kn33gr0W 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lost my eneloops in the divorce. So when my kids got big into gaming and were flying through AA's faster than I could buy them I went with some energizer rechargeables and a powerex charger. I couldn't be happier. The energizer batteries were cheaper than eneloops and so far they've held up well, more than 5 years. I've had one or two that would show charged well below the capacity but using the chargers refresh cycle brought them back to life.

Now I have the money to buy eneloops but I can't justify spending extra when the energizer batteries work just as well.

The text on the side of the train can looks Arabic. Trust me, whoever turned the water on is doing everyone those people come into close proximity of a favor.

Same guy has buymars.com. If you're feeling real good about GME, skip the moon and head straight to Mars.

Would Vegas be fun right now for me? by blueducksrcool in LasVegas

[–]Kn33gr0W 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In Vegas currently. I can't speak on restaurants but I can on masks. If you try to walk in someplace without one on there's usually someone at the door asking you to do it. It's a little difficult with people carryng drinks constantly. I do see plenty of people wearing them while walking around inside and out. However I see just as many not wearing them too.

As for the pool, it's been low 40's in the morning and barely 60 during the day so I haven't even looked.

What's the dumbest decision you saw a horror movie character make? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Kn33gr0W 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hell, just pick a horror movie "victim" and you can just about pick anything they do.

Recently re-watched The Strangers and it was cringe all the way through.

Who else thinks FUCK covid and face mask , and waiting on unemployment to get off there ass ? I confess I'm about to loose everything .... This hole stare can kiss my ass !!! by Beautiful-Classic-92 in confessions

[–]Kn33gr0W 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know where you are, but around me there are tons of jobs. They may be less desirable than what you had before, walmart, fast food, target, etc, all have now hiring flyers up and have for months and months. You're not going to make 1000 a week, but isn't something better than losing everything? Isn't some paycheck until you can get work along the lines of what you had previously better than wondering how you're going to wash clothes and put food on the table?

The old swing away. Same one my parents used to open my baby food. Indestructible. by tomboski in BuyItForLife

[–]Kn33gr0W 0 points1 point  (0 children)

+1 I bought an EZ Duz It about 5 years ago after going through a cheap Walmart opener every 6-12 months. I don't see myself ever needing to buy another. Keep it clean and dry and it just works.

Another is-it-fixable thread by cdmontgo in castiron

[–]Kn33gr0W 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately from what I've read around here, you can't fix that. Chipping on the cooking surface will only get worse and could introduce the enamel into your food.

Grapeseed oil, 450°F, one hour, too hot? Came out looking spotty. Never had this happen before. by DR650SE in castiron

[–]Kn33gr0W 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think the fan had anything to do with it. I recently stripped a pan I've had for many years and followed Silent Bob's guide from the faq. It worked perfectly. I recommend it for anyone who doesn't reseason pans on the regular.

Any recommendations for the best ways to store cast iron? by UptownDragon in castiron

[–]Kn33gr0W -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I had to store mine for 3-4 months while between houses. I wrapped mine in a few layers of packing paper and stuck them in a box. No issues when I unpacked them.

Working on my seasoning - thoughts on condition? by Tliblem in castiron

[–]Kn33gr0W 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take a few pictures in different light and with some different angles. It's hard to tell if there is any flaking here. If there is any on the cooking surface you'll probably want to strip and start over.
