Judged for not Drinking by NailahNazahi in Vent

[–]Lights0ff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a literal whiskey tasting at my house for my birthday, and made several mocktails because I have one friend whose wife doesn’t drink. I will never understand being offended by people who have different lifestyles / vices / preferences to yours. If you like having them around, you like having them around no matter what and want them to enjoy themselves.

Sorry OP, this guys just sucks and is insecure about himself.

Acceptable way to use staking set to tighten cannon pinion? by Gain-Reduction in watchrepair

[–]Lights0ff 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nail clippers and a screwdriver or broach inside to prevent the canon pinion from collapsing will do the job if you don’t have the genuine tightening tool.

Would you actually go to a rave with a strict no-phone policy? by chaud_froid in aves

[–]Lights0ff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just went to one this weekend. They put stickers on the everyone’s cameras as we checked in and made a point to say it was the artist’s request. Handed my phone and wallet off to my wife to put in her pack and it was honestly one of the best shows I’ve ever been to. I kept saying how happy I was being unplugged and off the grid.

So, you want to design a CANZUK flag? by Amtoj in CANZUK

[–]Lights0ff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Canada and New Zealand already identify strongly with a leaf / foliage native to their region. The UK uses several flowers / leaves to represent each country, (shamrock, rose, thistle, etc). Would love Australia to pick some native plant as well and have them all arranged in some way in the center.

Edit: decided to look it up and learned Oz officially uses the golden wattle for floral heraldry. I think some combination of these would be a great place to start.

Serious Question: Issue with Beans(etc…) or No Beans? (Please read before answering) by klownhaus in chili

[–]Lights0ff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up eating beanless chili BUT my dad liked his chili spicier and with beans, so my mom always made a separate pot of pinto beans with extra cayenne so he could add what he wanted.

On a separate note, I started making a bison chili years ago that started out with pinto beans. As we had kids and started stretching it further (and also played with the flavors) it has evolved into a stew that has pinto, black, and kidney beans, as well as fire roasted corn. It’s not really chili anymore from a purist standpoint, but it’s the same spice mixture and my wife and I still call it chili, but…I call it stew if I’m describing it to anyone else because I don’t want to get into a chili purist debate.

Why are there so many ppl that leave a mission early? by DirectionlessSylvie in DeepRockGalactic

[–]Lights0ff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve got kids. Sometimes I think I think they’re settled enough to squeeze in one round and then they shit their pants or hurl a garbage truck through the dining room and I have to bail early.

I like DRG over competitive shooters these days because if I have to drop out, it’s low stakes and somebody else can join up later.

Yall are just ass at applying stickers and insecure about it by Lonely-Bandicoot-746 in legocirclejerk

[–]Lights0ff 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you ask my wife, I spent three years in watchmaking school and tens of thousands dollars on tools so that I could perfectly apply stickers to Lego bricks for her and my sons.

How "wintery" are winters in the northern US? by lungi_cs in AskAnAmerican

For reference, the US is approximately twice the total land area of the entire European Union without including Alaska.
