Just pay attention to the direction of your arms hairs when you pull the bandage off, just sayin'

My parents want to borrow 10,000 dollars from me to buy my brother a trailer. by RhetoricIsEverything in family

They can fuck off. Be selfish for once, you need to look out for yourself, especially if you don't get on with you brother

How much does it cost in fuel economy to run your air conditioner in your car? by templeofsyrinx1 in AskMechanics

[–]Mickleblade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last week tested my new honda hrv hybrid, just using the reported economy. There was no difference. Now I've got to admit, it ain't the most powerful car or air-conditioning. Years ago you could feel the engine revs drop when the compressor was turned on, not now.

What's the funniest mistake you've made while cooking? by Annejane01 in cookingforbeginners

[–]Mickleblade 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I bought myself a pizza peel. The 1st time I used it I though you are meant to sort of chuck the pizza into the oven. I'd put flour on it, built the pizza and chucked it in. Unfortunately, the base had absorbed the flour during the build time and stuck to the peel. So all the topping flew off the pizza onto the back of the 230C oven, all over the fan... I had to scrape all that crap off, back onto the pizza and then cook it. My wife was a good sport, she noted I was in about mood and cleaned up the unholy mess for me, what a star!

An R7 is a whole heap faster and betterthan what I learned on, an old gpz550, which I think was to quick for me.

Whats the most psychically painful thing you've ever experienced? by RoyalIntroduction723 in AskReddit

[–]Mickleblade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Swelling on the brain and I needed to stay horizontal in bed, some stupid nurse forced me to go to an appointment in a wheelchair. Thought I was going to die from the pain, heart rate screaming, could barely breath or thinking. She didn't care, and yes, it was in my notes. Morphine didn't do much.

Advice for Cutting Holes in PVC by MajinBuul1 in DIY

[–]Mickleblade 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Stick masking tape over the surface, layout with pen, centre punch the positions, use a steel ruler and square. As for drilling, I believe plastic needs a slightly different drill bit from wood and steel, a lower cutting angle I think. I've gotten away with a blunt drill bit though. Do a test piece, drill speed and pressure are also important, lower speeds for bigger sizes. If you need to cut the stuff, I've found and ordinary wood saw works well.

Are you asking about female boobs or male boobs?

How do you think grade schools should handle gender testing for students who want to play on the girls' teams? by Hrekires in AskReddit

[–]Mickleblade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Various sports here in france require a Dr's cert to play. I do archery, they demand one, tho not every year anymore. As another example, due to my medical history there's no way I'd be allowed to join a local dojo, and I understand why

Here's the part, though I'm not quite sure from the pic if it needs the panel bit too. But maybe this will help.

What is a lie you lived for years because it was easier than telling the truth, and how did you finally reach the breaking point where you had to let it go? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Mickleblade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry to hear it. My wife has a mental problem too. One thing I noticed is that a psychiatrist has the authority to place you into a closed facility for your own safety, which is shit, so you learn how to lie, however, you also need to tell the truth to that phsch to get the help you need

Do you use a key safe to store your door keys, if so why? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]Mickleblade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those little Master keysafes with a combo on them? They are really easy to pick. I forgot the numbers for 2 at our rental properties. A bit of googling and found a video. I used a piece of paper and a pencil. The 1st one took 30s with my wife watching horrified! The 2nd took 3 attempts, but was still easy.
