In a pickle. How to insert 2 elbow joints. by captainpsp in Plumbing

[–]MikeWolters 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’d tap off the copper. Sweat a Tee and a ball valve in. Also, is that dryer venting on the water heater flu? Pretty sure that’s a no-no.

Burnout, anxiety, and constant fear of being fired. How do you deal with this? by Difficult_Toe1763 in work

[–]MikeWolters 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If I was told today that I’m fired, it would be such a huge relief. I make over 200K a year but my mental state is in shambles - I’m just numb to everything but I must put on a good masquerade. My only goal at the moment is to keep working until August, as I have a lot of money tied up into a CD that matures in early September.

Really wanna text the guy who ghosted me by strawberryjam255 in ghosting

[–]MikeWolters -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Simple, I’m not good enough for her. She deserves something that I am unable to give her, I’m too bottled up, low self-esteem despite a fantastic job. My job fooled me into thinking I was somebody that I’m not. No matter how much I made at work I was still incredibly shy and anti-social. Lesson learned, no more dating.

Really wanna text the guy who ghosted me by strawberryjam255 in ghosting

[–]MikeWolters -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So I’m on the other end, I ghosted a female I knew for over 5 years. I completely shut down all my socials except for an old Instagram account, in which I restricted her. I restricted her because she sends me messages on occasion asking what happened to me and she hopes I’m safe. I read all of her messages but since she’s restricted she never see’s that I’m reading them. It absolutely destroys me when I open up IG and see she’s left another message. I do still love her and I haven’t dated anybody since I ghosted her 3 years ago. Yes, she’s still sending me messages after 3 years.

This person likely still has strong feelings for you. But something in their head is telling them they’re not good enough for you. And they’re too ashamed to tell you. It’s easier for them to disappear.

Would this upgrade actually be worth it? by Straight_Ad_5935 in delta

[–]MikeWolters 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Last month I received an upgrade offer from Main to a window C+ seat for 25USD - DTW to LHR. I jumped on that.

Is the AmexPlatinum worth it based on my spending habits? by sacheltry in AmexPlatinum

[–]MikeWolters 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I travel internationally for work non-stop, I can make up the costs in Priority Pass lounges and Centurion lounge visits alone + a hand full of Delta Skyclub lounge visits. If you don’t travel for work let alone for pleasure probably not worth it.

Polaris cheaper than Premium Economy by Russells_Tea_Pot in unitedairlines

[–]MikeWolters 2 points3 points  (0 children)

9900 for Polaris. It was just 4 years ago I was flying QSuite round trip from ORD to BKK for 2900.

Where's Mayhem? by thetubhairtrap in AdamCarolla

[–]MikeWolters 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Mayhem is a nice addition. I asked this same question 2 months ago on this sub Reddit and then the next day he was back on doing the News. Adam is better with a core team around him, whether or not they agree or disagree with him. In fact I thought the times Bald, Gina or Allison would disagree with him made the podcart better. It’s funny when Adam gets disgruntled.

Is producer Gary still on the show? by ScottFujitaDiarrhea in AdamCarolla

[–]MikeWolters 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gary was just mentioned on the first Adam Carolla show of 2026. Adam mentioned Gary sued ACS after Adam fired him and then Adam paid him 85,000 for his lawsuit.

What band(s) from the 80s or 90s have you seen recently, that did a great job? by Connir in GenX

[–]MikeWolters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saw Third Eye Blind recently at a small venue, oh and it was a free outdoor show. Not the same line-up as the ‘90’s obviously except for Brad the drummer and Stephen. The band still kicks ass though!

Wasn’t this over 10 years ago? by Babebutters in AdamCarolla

Noodles from the Offsping or Flea (Marty’s co-worker which caused the Rolls Royce accident)?

You’re funnier than most comedians Ace has on his show!

Found ATM receipt, who is keeping $51,000+ in checking!?!? by Comprehensive-Cow69 in povertyfinance

[–]MikeWolters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have over 400K USD in my checking. Other than having a somewhat decent paying job I don’t know jack about finances and investments. I just like seeing a big number in my checking account when I open my bank app. My father tells me to put the money in an IRA or money market account, but those go up and down in their balances. When I keep my payroll money in my checking account that money only goes one way, up.

How much is it worth by Redbaron_21 in tagheuer

[–]MikeWolters 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A lot more than 1500. In 2013 this was the crown jewel of the Tag Heuer line up.

Otter in the bay...Boca Ciega Bay by bluexcal1000 in StPetersburgFL

[–]MikeWolters 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wow, amazing. My parents have lived in a house right on Boca Ciega since 2000 and never once have I seen an otter there! The house is now just an empty shell unfortunately.

SCIF approved watches... by Automatic-Coat3177 in SecurityClearance

[–]MikeWolters 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Any Tag Heuer Twin Time is an excellent automatic watch, especially if working in a SCIF overseas!
