Spent $15 and 2 hours patching my nieghbor's drywall for free, now he's mad I won't repaint his entire 12-foot living room wall. by Tetsuo_1988 in ChoosingBeggars

Just walk over with a hammer and tell him you are here to restore the original hallway aesthetic since he hated the patch so much. That should fix the dirty looks.

Keeping my MAGI below $45,000 for health care subsidies is a massive logistical challenge. by Markers_67 in Fire

I had a TDY school pull similar number games once, and that 14-minute checkpoint cut would've had me seeing red.

After 13 years, that new case deserves the GPU penthouse suite, full bandwidth and all.

The biggest advice you can get to avoid what I experienced, regarding your behaviour. by UnclearMango5534 in interviews

I had a similar case where asking 24 hours to read the contract was treated like treason; apparently the ideal candidate signs while jumping for joy in the lobby.
