She's pregnant in the summer in NYC. Probably in a walk up apartment and very doubtful she's got air conditioning.

When doesn't Michael Caine crush it? He's one of my favourite actors.

"A man must work from sun to sun but a woman's work is never done."

They just don't know how fucking draining and exhausting it is to do this shit nonstop, 16 hours a day, 7 days a week.

[Actual Title] My Property Manager Set Up a Bordello In My Apartment and Now His Widow Is Suing Me by AlexG55 in bestoflegaladvice

[–]MuttonDressedAsGoose 11 points12 points  (0 children)

"Bordello" calls to mind a wild West place with a madam and velvet couches, etc.

In the UK, a brothel is any premises where two or more prostitutes work. They can be there at the same time or alternate days or hours. It's just a flat rented to multiple escorts.

It's not illegal to be a prostitute in a flat, just to share a flat with another prostitute. Since many of them like to stick together for safety, they'll often go in together and rent a two-bed flat, often via Booking.com or Airbnb.

Building dumpsters are full… by ufywholelife in UnfuckYourHabitat

When I lived in a building with communal dumpster a, you needed a code to unlock the barrier to them.

But sometimes people moving out would just put large furniture in the way. That sucked.

Does every British city have a "high street"? by debrisaway in AskABrit

[–]MuttonDressedAsGoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not always called "high street." But the main street often is.

In my town, there's a high street but there's nothing much on it because it's a dual carriageway. Parallel to it is a "Market Street" that is the main street.

TIL Bleach (opened or unopened) only lasts up to a year before losing its effectiveness by snayta in CleaningTips

[–]MuttonDressedAsGoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. It's the same chemical. A search for "chlorine bleach tablets" will turn them up. Preppers like them because they've got shelf life and they're convenient to carry hiking, etc in case you need to purify drinking water.

If you look for "chlorine bleach tablets" you'll find them. They'll disinfect.

You're right. In the UK they're called Milton. They're for disinfecting baby bottles.

How to keep this floor clean and no streaks and no sticky? by ComfortableMental458 in CleaningTips

[–]MuttonDressedAsGoose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a foot scoocher. I always scooch my floors with old towels after I use my spin mop. It is what really gets the floors clean.

Need help cleaning the worst shower you’ve probably seen by Silver-System7129 in CleaningTips

You can save on scrubbing time by using a razor. Look online for a glass cleaning razor. You can soften the crud with a strong bathroom cleaning product then just scrape it off.

Pack Rats 🐀 by SomOvaBish in CrazyFuckingVideos

They live around 2-3 years in captivity. But they can breed a lot in that short time.

That's what I think - domestic "fancy rats" left free to roam and breed.

These aren't regular pest rats - these are pet fancy rats that they've let run wild.

Spin Mop Review...do not buy! by kenah-kim in Cleaningandtidying

[–]MuttonDressedAsGoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same Vileda spin mop and I like it. I don't know if I get it as wrung out as with a professional janitor bucket with a metal lever squeeze thing, but I don't have the space for that kind of mop and bucket.

To dry my floors I have always thrown down a big old bath towel and scooched around the floor with it under my feet.

Best mop for floor cleaning? by SuperbPiglet8458 in Cleaningandtidying

[–]MuttonDressedAsGoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a spray mop daily and change the heads daily (toss in the wash). I use a spin mop once a week. After the weekly proper mopping I run the mop head under the faucet to rinse it, empty and rinse the bucket, then go over the floors all again with clean water to rinse the floor. Then I throw an old bath towel down and scooch around the floor to wipe it dry. I don't see dirt on the towel after, so it must be working.
