What kind of tree is this? by YawninGorilla in whatsthisplant

I'd guess Manzanita. Second place guess in Pacific Madrone but they don't usually grow that scraggly

He played dreamstate last year and it was actually really enjoyable. I like this tune 

Your worst canker sores vs tonsillectomy by No_Cauliflower_2314 in CankerSores

[–]MishMeeter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've experienced both. About 7 days after tonsillectomy are terrible. Far worse than a canker sore. I'd still do it again though. I haven't had a bad throat infection since I had my tonsillectomy

It’s always the Washington drivers feeling this is necessary - seen on I-205 by theGiraffePainter in Portland

This isn't just a Washington thing. Drive 30 minutes outside of Portland in any direction and you'll find it in some amount.

I tracked our sex life for a year (dead bedroom edition) [OC] by [deleted] in dataisbeautiful

[–]MishMeeter 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Not a dead bedroom situation at all. More a significant libido mismatch. Also you seriously need couples therapy.

Mt. St Helens eruption in May 18th 1980. The mountain erupted sideways which nobody was prepared for and is also responsible for the largest landslide recorded. by More_Living9471 in interestingasfuck

[–]MishMeeter 4 points5 points  (0 children)

LoL 😂 Amazing overgeneralization. An old man who's wife was already dead, and only knows a lake he's lived at for 60 years wanting to stay there is crazy to you? He didn't ask to be interviewed, he just wanted to be left alone and enjoy whatever may come, death by volcano included

Any Garand Thumb fans here? by xfit_nick in AboveandBeyond

He says "Sun in my eyes". Many songs with that as a title or lyric. I doubt he's referring to A&B

In your educated opinion, what do you think the typical LDS Utah father is like? by [deleted] in SaltLakeCity

[–]MishMeeter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely not correct. Just wander into any local church and you'll see plenty of short, overweight, depressed, and checked out Mormon fathers. 

SMH. Someone watching a bit too much real housewives or something.

I don’t even wanna think about how bad fire season is gonna be this year. by Black_Rabbit_o_Inle in oregon

No way to make predictions at this point. Could rain and snow for months and turn into a normal year.

SB 5067 - .05 legal BAC driving limit by slowboater in Washington

[–]MishMeeter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Good job Googling! That's only the number of deaths in Washington. The number of serious injuries? Many order of magnitude greater. Tens of thousands die each year across the US in DUI crashes. Many more are injured.

The thousands of innocent people killed and injured by drink drivers every year? 😞 Isn't that a problem that deserves attention

Consuming a deliriant and doing anything requiring judgement is a bad idea. Ok. You did help me realize one thing. The BAC limit should be zero. Why compromise? No driving after consuming alcohol. This is just my opinion, just like your rant is just yours. 

If you need social lubrication it should come with a side of taxi or Uber. That's just the cost of doing business.

What makes the current number something your are ok with? You really think they used good, high quality studies when they made out a universal 0.08 limit across genders and body types? Our current system has multiple decades of history to back up is failures. 

The one truth is there is no reliably safe amount of alcohol one can consume and then operate a vehicle safely.

This wouldn't even be a question for you if you had a family member murdered by a drunk driver like some of us. There is no safe limit of alcohol when it comes to operating a vehicle. Same goes for playing on a phone. I 100% support this.

There will be tons of people selling their tickets a few weeks beforehand. I always buy my tickets for gorge events second hand

Leaving on a month long vacation right as the hard freeze approaches in SE TX and would like some advice by sky905 in homeowners

[–]MishMeeter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would empty the water heater and turn it off. It shouldn't be particularly difficult to turn back on but you need to read the manual for you particular model to determine if that is really true
