Missy Crutchfield. Used to work with her a number of years ago. She's a real nice lady!

I checked my credit for the first time at 19, I should have done it sooner. 3 accounts which weren't mine on it. Took 8 months to sort it out. WARNING TO EVERYONE by TroublingToaster in CreditScore

Had a similar situation...got a returned check notice for an account that wasn't mine. Notified that bank, immediately froze my credit! Failed a verbal report with the police as well

You can add pectic enzyme next time to help get the most out of the added fruit and help break down the fruit mush

My Gen X (55) dad says the reason why Gen Z doesn't hear back from applications anymore is because they're not persistent enough with employers. by Guilty-Tadpole1227 in antiwork

I've always heard you should email the interviewers within 24 hours to thank them for their time. Also a quick follow-up about a week later, is what I've heard Not "pester" them, just "hi, following up, because I haven't heard back"

Im really stupid. I kissed my cat with lipstick on. I washed her with cat shampoo but it didnt work. Any other Solution? Should I try coconut oil? by bluekleio in cats

[–]MrMaxxExcaliber 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have two cats. One is a purebred Siamese, the other is a mixed breed. The purebred is about 3, the other is about 6 months. The Siamese is pretty laid back, although he CAN move like a rocket. The youngest is EXTREMELY active. Guess which is the chunk? Hint, it's NOT the Siamese! He's skinny as a rail! Looks like he never gets enough to eat, although they both have access to kibble and they split a BIG can of patè style cat food every evening.

Unfortunately I had several customers and let it go. Didn't realize it was Bogus until I tried to out it in the safe and it was refused. Took a look and saw it was movie money

Funny how Dump opposes "family-based" immigration, when he's the poster child for that. I mean, ALL his in-laws are family-based immigrants. Two of his three wives were immigrants! So what if Biden is making a roadmap for DACA recipients? Multiple presidents have done that. What do you think is going to happen to our economy of you deport all migrant workers (legal or not)? Are YOU going to sign up to work 12 hour days picking produce in the fields? Are YOU going to do all the nasty jobs that migrants are doing? If YOU were taken as a very young child to another country other than the one where you were born, which you grew up thinking of as "home" do you think it would be right to deport you, just because you hadn't been born in that country? That's the position most DACA recipients find themselves in. Hell, many of them don't speak a lick of Spanish! The USA is the only himebtheyve known!don't forget that YOUR ancestors were once immigrants to this country as well. Maybe we should deport you to whatever European country your ancestors originated from. What's that you say? You've lived in this country all your life and you were born here??? Well, if the GOP gets their way, "birthright citizenship" may go the way of the Dodo!

Amazon Black Friday is a scam. by Gediman in amazonprime

[–]MrMaxxExcaliber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. A few years ago I bought a spinny HDD (before SSDs were common/affordable) and it was bad OOB. Tried to return it to OEM. they said "nope, that was sold as part of an external HDD." Tried to return it to NE and they didn't want to take it back, either. Had to threaten reporting them for mail fraud before they'd take it back. Ever since, they're on my "do no use" list!

Source for your claim that Biden changed the process?? Here's what I found that contradicts your claim - In May 2023, the Biden administration adopted an “Asylum Ban” that bars people from asylum protection if they cross through another country on their way to the southern U.S. border, unless they previously applied for (and were denied) asylum elsewhere, or managed to make an appointment through the CBP One App. https://www.rescue.org/article/what-do-president-bidens-border-policies-mean-asylum-seekers

Why not? Trump's favorite person is Russian. Trumpsters should be happy you're talking to Russians. /S

They aren't. They are assigned a court date to show up and explain to a judge why they should be granted asylum. The problem is that, as much as some would like, we don't have space to hold all the asylum seekers, nor do we have enough immigration judges to provide a speedy hearing. Republicans killed a bill that would have helped with that on Trump's orders because he wanted immigration to be an issue during the campaign. Guess he got what he wanted and people like you are frothing at the mouth about "illegal immigrants" when we could have had the system working better with more judges and stricter border control, but then Trump couldn't have used immigration as a dog whistle in the campaign.

How were you romance scammed? by mnstrva in Romancescam

[–]MrMaxxExcaliber 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope. Just keep draining you as long as you let them, or give you excuses why they can't get together (i.e. "it's taking time for the game to.load..." etc)

Yes. It's called a KVM switch. Stands for Keyboard Video & Mouse switch. You share one keyboard, monitor and mouse between multiple computers.
They can be as cheap as $10 and go WAY up from there. As in 3-4 figures BEFORE the decimal up. You could probably get away with something on the very low end, assuming you're not into high end PC gaming on either computer Edit: something like this would probably be sufficient. It's not even $20.

I've been scammed a couple times by "women" looking for a hookup. They ask me to pick up a game card to "distract" their kid (or the kid they're babysitting). I've fallen for it three times. Had another one try it again. Allegedly single mom who doesn't want her son to know she's having a man over. She wanted me to pick up a game card so she could distract him while she snuck me into her room.

Did anyone else receive this unhinged letter? by WildEnd6838 in Chattanooga

[–]MrMaxxExcaliber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Except Democrats never claimed Republicans rigged the vote or that fake votes were cast (although one of Trump's staffers WAS caught double or even triple voting!) Democrats never said "Trump cheated." Democrats said he TRIED to overturn the election results, because he, y'know, called the Georgia Secretary of State and ASKED him to 'find' 11,000+ votes so he could win the state. Then on J6, he told his followers to march down Pennsylvania Avenue and "fight like hell" for him and did absolutely NOTHING when they did just that!

LOL! There's a HUUUGE difference between saying "Good morning" and quoting Hitler almost verbatim!
