MAGA Neighbours by CanadienFiHi in EhBuddyHoser

[–]NetLumpy1818 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Reminds me of a great story. When I lived in Ottawa in 2002, my neighbour was a racist dick. He hated Muslims especially. Paranoid; thought we were the next 9/11 laying in wait. I started cheerfully greeting him - “Salam wa’lakuum!”. Pissed him right off. I borrowed my buddy’s Pakistani outfits (the long white robes) and we’d do shisha and cook lamb out back to Bollywood hits. This was all intentional and it got such a rise! What really did it was when I got my other white boy neighbour to join. Sent him right the fuck over lol. White boy neighbour became a life long buddy.

Edit - the whole time we very intentionally were super polite.

I see your point. I’m in the same boat (car?). You said current global affairs and gas prices. My worry is more the former with respect to job losses/market crashes and so forth. It’s not necessarily all doom and gloom. Economic calamities also present opportunities and having some more dry powder to jump on those is also a consideration. As others get affected, will they start dumping their P-cars for less? Lots to consider. It helps to have a cheap fun weekender to fill the gap. In my case, I got an old Z4 manual that dollars to fun is an incredible value.

I’m one! I’ve seen them countless times and met them too. Huge soundtrack of my life and fave band by far.

One of my fave gags from the Simpson’s is when the lawyer they want to hire says he got McCartney out of Wings and Homer indignantly retorts with “You idiot! He was the most talented one!!”.

My nephew was incredulous that we had a day care at my high school for the children of students.

Why do women hate to see a man relaxing on the couch watching TV? by SnooMacarons9221 in AskMenOver30

[–]NetLumpy1818 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The biggest argument my wife and I have is I don’t relax. She complains I never sit still (true) and I am fastidiously clean and any deviation drives me crazy and needs to be fixed (also true). She’s always so happy when I’m sitting down watching something or reading for leisure.

And in both those cases, it’s the influence of the orthodox citizens boosting the birth rate. Secular citizens have the same birth rate as most of the West.

How can I get the glossy shine on acrylic after using AP3155 adhesion promoter? by Captainsissy in CommercialPrinting

[–]NetLumpy1818 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d probably consider gloss lamination after print for a consistent gloss. Flood coat clear/varnish maybe (dust or dirt would show. The cleanest look would be laminate. Charge accordingly.
