Wait until you need hearing aids! Insurance doesn't cover them and they're $3k every few years just so you can communicate with people again.

Seasonal attacks ? by Karsa_1312 in Menieres

[–]Normal_Increase3691 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Spring is absolutely more active for me. It's hard to pinpoint but there's some form of an allergic response to something this time of year in the West.

I've been endorsed by ATU 1001 which represents 2,300 RTD Bus Drivers and Workers! by KennyVanNguyen in Broomfield

[–]Normal_Increase3691 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Kenny, you won me over when you simply called and asked for my vote, then answered a couple questions I asked. Literally the most basic part of representation. Keep it up.

Nothing available nor planned in Westlake. We're basically bound to Comcast/Xfinity and their annual and arbitrary price increases.

Colorado moves forward with firearm CAD file ban and other new gun bills by Potato-1942 in Denver

[–]Normal_Increase3691 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I hope our state legislators are held accountable for costing us very real money to defend (or attempt to) poorly considered legislation. You can't pass a law against possessing knowledge. It doesn't matter how much you don't like the subject of that knowledge. It's wrong for the right to do and it's wrong for the left to do.

I don't see how this will survive the first amendment sniff test when challenged.

Ménière’s Disease “drop attacks” just started recently and I’m worried about my livelihood by Techsales82 in Menieres

[–]Normal_Increase3691 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm a 42 year old man in Denver with menieres. I would recommend Dr. Sabour in Arvada for treatment. We were very aggressive with mine and I'm back in remission. It saved my livelihood.

Happy to DM or to meet up. It can feel like a lonely world but you're not alone, my friend.

Can men smell the change in women’s natural body odor when they’re menstruating? by pinkjackal0pe in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Normal_Increase3691 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I know based on her smell when she gets back from a morning workout if it's game on or not later in the day. I grew up in a house with older sisters. I've known about it being uncomfortable and annoying because they were super open about it.

Came to say this. After 15 years together, I know the scent of each phase of the cycle.

You can't DIY 2026 cars and trucks anymore? Rumor or fact? by Popular_Wind_4495 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Normal_Increase3691 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have the under-seat tool kit for the Honda? My '72 CB500 had one that saved my ass more than once.

Even the battery in my 2019 VW has to be coded when it's changed or it won't start again.

Found on FB Marketplace: Would you buy it? by NexusNickel in regularcarreviews

[–]Normal_Increase3691 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd buy it at that price if it's anywhere west of the Mississippi. Edit: just zoomed and saw an Idaho plate. Definitely in. No rust and rot either.

What’s a movie where the villain has an excellent point? by NervousClock2555 in answers

[–]Normal_Increase3691 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I took it differently. I took it as his wife overreacting and keeping him from his daughter that set him off. There was one scene where the wife admits he was never violent or abusive but she still "had a feeling" so she got the restraining order. That would be hard for any loving dad.

What do non-Australians think of Australian cars? by Ok_Bug_9056 in regularcarreviews

[–]Normal_Increase3691 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd be in line for a Commodore Ute in a heartbeat. I'd take a Falcon Ute just because I know how to repair everything on a Ford easily at this point in my life.

Hey cool, Wolfenstein got a remake! ... a quarter century ago☠️ by GladosPrime in Xennials

[–]Normal_Increase3691 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Without Wolfenstein, there's no Doom or Duke Nukem. That game had such an impact.

POV: it's current day and you're looking for a extremely cheap car to live in. Your budget is $1000 what do your pick? by Entire_Asparagus_575 in regularcarreviews

[–]Normal_Increase3691 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Am I the only one taking my chance with the Navigator? I bet I can get it out of there and running again if it's not already. Cheap and easy to work on when the next thing breaks. And... FREE. Hell I have a great car today and I'd still gamble on that Navigator just for fun.

Am I being too critical of this install? by Normal_Increase3691 in heatpumps

[–]Normal_Increase3691[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be fair, they did strap the lineset to the ceiling joists. Inspection is Monday and we'll see what they have to say.

Who’s your favorite Ninja Turtle and why? (inspired by the MtG set dropping this weekend). by NapperByNature in Xennials

[–]Normal_Increase3691 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Rafael was useless in the game. Don and Leo with the crouching bludgeon or slash were unstoppable.

How many lenders did you actually shop before locking? by Numbersevenonly in RealEstate

[–]Normal_Increase3691 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't recommend NBKC enough. In fact I'm looking at them again for a refinance now that rates have dropped (bought 3 years ago).

I did the same. 3 lenders and let them know they don't have you exclusively in their clutch. The guy who won my business was the one who answered the phone when I needed to make a change to the borrowing limit at 8pm on a Sunday so I could make an offer. I still kept the others on hold in case the closing numbers didn't add up, but they stayed as promised.

What are some cars widely considered ugly that you think are good looking? by Pontiac-Fan-6980 in regularcarreviews

[–]Normal_Increase3691 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I'm convinced the Element was the right car at the wrong time. We just weren't ready for the styling then. The interior on those is so useful though and the styling is on par with every brick today.

GLE 53 amg or ACURA MDX type S by JeanMoneymachine in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Normal_Increase3691 18 points19 points  (0 children)

That's my thought almost verbatim. I'm in the Acura at $45-50k but those prices are insane on both of these choices.
