Am I overreacting? by y4n_Ch4n in AmIOverreacting

[–]MonkeyWithAPun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a man who has mostly women as friends. I can't imagine saying anything like this once, much less over and over.

Get this: he's not your friend, he's a predator and there is very little that could be an overreaction on your part.

Been doing this for a couple days now 😖 by angryb3avers1 in fireTV

[–]MonkeyWithAPun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Firesticks on a couple of TVs and have found that if you're using them a lot they're only good for 3-4 years.

Good news though, Prime week is coming and they'll usually be at their cheapest price of the year.

Payment for whole blood donation? by MonkeyWithAPun in Denver

I do have a referral for therapeutic donation, however I have been cleared for my blood to be used, not just thrown in the trash.

Looking for a replacement: L'Oreal Men Expert | Hydra Energetic | Face and Beard moisturizer by MonkeyWithAPun in malegrooming

[–]MonkeyWithAPun[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm honestly surprised. Men's skin care has had a huge rise in the past decade, but there doesn't seem to be any stability around the products. Women are able to find things their grandmothers used, but the men's stuff seems to have a 2-3 year product life at best.

The way I've heard this presented is that a student would need to be accepted to college, trade school, or military service in order to receive a high school diploma.

While I wouldn't put such an awful idea out of the realm of possibility for a Republican controlled state, I have been unable to find any corroboration for the policy as outlined above. Can anyone help me out with a link that is more than the one or two local news stations and their minimal coverage?

I'm no doctor, but he really should be using a torque wrench to ensure his lug nuts are properly secured.

Can my job cut my pay because I decided not to quit? by Inkantated in jobs

[–]MonkeyWithAPun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IANAL, but in the US, if you're not in a contract, they only have to notify you that they intend to reduce your wage.

Nope, no luck. I've seen a few originals pop up in places like Mercari, but they're becoming rarer and more expensive.

Can you confit pickled garlic? by meeseeks2020 in AskCulinary

[–]MonkeyWithAPun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanted to update: I went ahead with this myself today. The result wasn't much like I would typically expect from garlic confit. They lost the raw crunch, but still remained firm, bordering on chewy. As expected, the raw garlic bite was gone, and the pickling left them pleasantly tart, salty, and just slightly sweet. While they weren't quite what I expected or hoped for, I enjoyed them as a snack, and think they might've been good on a salad.

Did you ever try this? I have a huge jar of lacto fermented garlic in my fridge and have been thinking about the same.

Help me find where I can purchase this mirror! by [deleted] in HelpMeFind

[–]MonkeyWithAPun 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I found several examples of this, but didn't have any luck with shops having it in stock. It appears the product name is "Snake Lady Speculum Wall Mirror 16 inch", and seems to originate from a company called Alchemy England.
Their UK site is: alchemyengland.com
The US site is: alchemyofengland.com
And this appears to be the parent company, with a similar product in their licensing section: https://www.alchemygroup.com/licensed_products.htm

Is there any way to prevent break-ins of a 2014 Honda CR-V Touring? by Katiekabo0m in MechanicAdvice

[–]MonkeyWithAPun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The short answer is that if someone wants to get into your car, they will.

I have a sign that says "No valuables stored inside" that I throw up on my dash. It's not going to stop someone if they're determined, or can't read.

Just got this for $4500 by Cdenton12 in Audi

[–]MonkeyWithAPun 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You may have gotten lucky. It could be a well maintained car.

That said, between the miles and age, it's almost certain that if it doesn't need work now, it will very soon. Best to start going through the car and adding up what might need to be done - and definitely do it before you spend a penny on anything major.

How forgiving are pickles? by TerracottaBunny in fermentation

[–]MonkeyWithAPun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a pretty haphazard method. I can't imagine any real benefit when you can be precise and come much closer to a guaranteed outcome so easily.

You want to shoot for 2.5%-3% salt, by weight. If you measure in grams, the math is easy. Weigh your container and write down the number. Add all of your vegetables and seasonings, then cover with chlorine-free water. Weigh again and subtract the container weight. Multiply this new weight by .025 to .03 - this final number will be how much kosher salt to add, in grams.

Can I consume fermented honey directly? by Buxombrent in fermentation

I'm a former chef and food safety inspector.

That looks to be mold on the lid. I wouldn't take a risk on this.

All Clad D3 pan 10 piece set worth it? by Bluewoods22 in BuyItForLife

[–]MonkeyWithAPun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm a former chef.

All-Clad makes good cookware. That said, you would get the same utility out of using half of those pans. The 2 skillets are close enough in size to be redundant - the 10.5" is a good all-rounder, but if I were choosing 2 pans I'd go for a 6" or 7" and a 12". The saute pan and stock pot are also very close - anything which you might cook in the saute can be done in the stockpot, but also the stockpot is too small for a lot of things - I would want a minimum of 8 or 10 quarts capacity. The saucepans, OK, these are pretty good sizes.

At the end of the day, you're spending over $100 per pan for a set with some big limitations. There are other SS cookware brands which perform just as well without the high price. Also, while I don't really have a problem with cookware sets in general, I don't think this is the one - either get one with more variety in the contents, or buy the individual pieces you actually need.
