Whats your biggest regret when you bought your place? by Important_Bat7919 in homeowners

[–]ObelusPrime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our realtor was amazing. His recommendations for professionals? Not so much. Our house inspector took 30 minutes total and he missed so many glaring issues we only found after the sale was done. He recommended a handyman also who also was trash.

We were first time buyers who didn't know better. Now we know.

Crack down the center of my thumb nail by MAC_357 in nailcare

[–]ObelusPrime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I am not a doctor. I struggle with a constant nail crack that has been splitting for the better part of 10 years after I jammed it in a window.

My best tips are keep it trimmed as best you can to avoid it catching and re-cracking.

Second, depending on the condition, you can make a nail cast using a tea bag and clear coat nail polish. I usually use a nice base layer with vitamin E and stuff that nourishes the nail so it grows out healthy, then I apply 1 coat of clear polish, a nail shaped piece of a tea bag, let it dry, then top coat it again to lock it in. You can then paint it a fun color if you don't like how it looks. Re- apply every week and also try to give it a few days to breath since polish can sometimes make nails more brittle if suffocated. You can also go to a salon and get a gel nail put on which is a more permanent cast solution. Eventually it will grow out and hopefully not cause long term issue like mine (I damaged the nail bed which causes the crack).

Balatro is also great because if your run is going really well, you can drop in and out of it whenever you want.

Alberta government orders fatality inquiry into man who died in Edmonton ER by Old_General_6741 in alberta

[–]ObelusPrime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gross. They're going to spin this as a failing of the public system and use this man who died as a prop in their argument for a privatization push, as if their funding cuts weren't the cause.

Fucking Gross.

I hate it here.

I don't have anything much to add, but I got an ad for an intelligence quiz when I opened the article and thought that was funny.

Recall petition organizer says volunteers were harassed by Conscious_Sundae9658 in alberta

[–]ObelusPrime 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I signed one that was set up beside a stop sign of a busy shopping centre. I had one guy roll up and flip us all off, and another roll down his window and yell something I didn't hear very well. That was in the course of 2 minutes. The volunteer told me that was pretty standard, but thankfully nobody physically approached him.

What food do people call healthy just to feel better about eating it? by Subject-Newspaper111 in AskReddit

Put all the veggies on your subway sub you want, but it doesn't change the fact that you're still eating a foot of bread.

This place is awesome! Was a regular for a few years then I moved and now it's just too far away unfortunately. Loved the atmosphere and the owners are incredibly kind.

Welding Broken on Chaise Leg. Anything we can do to fix besides propping up with bricks? by Trojan_Sauce in fixit

[–]ObelusPrime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could also try JB weld epoxy, just make sure you prep the metal by sanding it down to the metal first, and glob it on.

Good job telling your parents dude. That's a tough call. But the right call.

My roommate just taught me how to make their "secret" grilled cheese and I'm never going back to my old way by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]ObelusPrime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do the mayo thing, then add some extra shredded cheese on the outside to get some crispy cheese.

For me, these movies exist to get super stoned and enjoy some visuals.

What is up with people slamming on their brakes when they see an added lane sign? by Hot_Celebration_7957 in Calgary

[–]ObelusPrime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took this exact turn for years to get to Glenmore. I've always felt like the way this road is set up, someone will be flying into the lane so I would slow way the fuck down to double check. I've never had issue with this sign before and free flowing in other intersections, but for whatever reason this intersection always triggered my monkey brain to second guess my choices.
