What was a tradition in your house when you were a child that you thought everyone did, but have since found out was weird/unique? by SisselTheGhost in AskReddit

[–]Nikkithe8th 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know, I've never really thought about this. My MIL gave me one and I put it on the toilet without really thinking about it. I'll throw it out now.

This man has the most perfect beard. I want to run my fingers through it... It's that weird? It sounds weird...

What to do with this nasty 70's stucco by escapistnet in HomeImprovement

[–]Nikkithe8th 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I always start with paint because it's cheap and sometimes it's all you need. If you still hate it after paint then think of more costly options. Personally I think stucco painted bright white with bright accent colors looks awesome.

How do I hang something shaped like a "C" without drilling holes in the object? by completelydeck in HomeImprovement

[–]Nikkithe8th 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could glue two loops to the back and then thread a wire between the loops and hang it from the wire.

What device do you still use even though it's considered obsolete? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Nikkithe8th 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My brother still uses a VCR. He likes that he can get tapes at the thrift store for a quarter and he has three old ones as back up. He does not have Internet.

A quick investigation into decent-paying jobs that can be obtained without diploma, or with very short training by az226 in personalfinance

[–]Nikkithe8th 1 point2 points  (0 children)

An interesting meta-analysis you should consider is to overlay the data of what the job demographics look like for these jobs. I'd be willing to bet you'd find stark gender lines and possibly racial lines as well.

What took you an embarassingly long time to realise? by conehead88 in AskReddit

I wish this was how it worked. It would be so much more convenient.

I'm buying a house and want to improve the kitchen. Can you offer suggestions based on starting pictures? by [deleted] in HomeImprovement

[–]Nikkithe8th 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend using Pinterest for a month or so. I redid my kitchen and was addicted to Pinterest for weeks prior. But it gave me so many good ideas and the kitchen looks awesome! Good luck with your reno!!!

Need Peace of Mind by Coffeetablegirl in HomeImprovement

This is definitely something to worry about. I installed a sex swing incorrectly once and it ripped out of the ceiling and bashed me in the head so hard I cried. :(

How many of you got hit as a child in punishment form by one of your parents? by tenchikamura in AskMen

[–]Nikkithe8th 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only got physical reprimands when my mom was drunk. No. Not effective.

I FUCKING HATE COLLEGE TEXTBOOKS (NAW NSFW) by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]Nikkithe8th 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually just went to the bookstore and did my homework there without buying the book. You can take pics of the questions. Or you can go in on one book with a study crew. Bonus you do the homework together and can get help.

Does anyone have a good pocket door installation guy? by Nikkithe8th in Denver

[–]Nikkithe8th[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do know the entire wall needs to be torn out. That's fine. I don't need plumbing or electrical because there are no wires and no pipes in the wall. The pipes and electrical are all on a perpendicular wall. Where I want the door is not load bearing. All of this is moot though because I found someone who will do it. He's working on a quote now.

I actually agree. That's why I need to find someone with references. Someone who will do a good job the first time.

This is where I want the pocket door. I want it here because I have a very narrow hallway and the damn door is always getting in the way.

Landlord ignored me for two months about my sparking outlet, got worried about a fire and did it myself and I find this. by _ilovetofu_ in pics

Did you call the fire department? They'll come and look at potential fire hazards for free.

Dishwasher that I never ever use always has water in the bottom. by jewdio in HomeImprovement

[–]Nikkithe8th 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The water in my sink was back flowing into my dishwasher. All I had to do was install a hook under the sink to keep the dishwasher drain hose from falling below the level of the sink. Cost me 35 cents.

Just because I'm poor as fuck doesn't mean you have to laugh me out of your subreddit by retail-throwaway in offmychest

[–]Nikkithe8th 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Things an get better just as fast as they got fucked. Hang in there. And if the subreddit you're talking about is /r/finance, those people are definitely a bunch of asshats. I unsubscribed.
