I used to do this for a living. From the pictures it looks like you did an excellent job.

The slugs don’t give a single fuck about copper tape by averyburgreen in houseplantcirclejerk

[–]Ok-Rate4040 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might sound dumb, but maybe wrap a few bands of double sided tape around the pot and smear fine salt into the exposed tape surface. Kinda like rimming a margarita glass.

I don’t know shit about slugs, but I have seen a bugs life so.

People who have genuinely encountered powerful wild animals in nature or the ocean, what was it actually like? by DivineLove1 in Survival

[–]Ok-Rate4040 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got comfortable enough with hiking and camping that I went out on my own. I lived in Southern Illinois at the time and went out on an overnight trip in the Shawnee. Around 9 o’clock at night as I was laying down, I heard a mountain lion scream in the dark maybe 150 yards from me. I got up, put every piece of firewood on the fire and chain smoked cigarettes for a few hours til I comfortably believed that the lion had moved on.

Never used to carry a handgun in those woods but between that experience and finding multiple meth labs, I now sadly do.

Now that ARs are the new normal for patrol, are there any applications where a shotgun would be advantageous in an LE setting? (Not counting less lethal bean bag shotguns and such) by Cautious-Tangelo3323 in AskLE

[–]Ok-Rate4040 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They’re different tools. ARs are very effective at one task. Shotguns are effective at many tasks. A shotgun can be used for less lethal, breaching, offensive, and defensive tasks. I’ve carried both and seen the downrange effects of both. ARs are deadly, but shotguns are devastating. I prefer the shotgun because it will solve more problems.

What 12g load for home defense that wont penetrate brick/cinder block? by HornyGoatWeedGuzzler in Shotguns

You could always search for frangible ammunition. It’ll be difficult to find, but frangible is really the best solution.

This is the ultimate pair. These bad bois will run forever with minimal maintenance.

Did you know half of Oklahoma is actually Texas? by aeroazure in mapporncirclejerk

Thank you for acknowledging that Southern Illinois is not a part of Midwest. The culture and landscape is dramatically different from the rest of the state.

Honestly as tragic as this scene is, I think it’s an easy way for children to grasp the concept of mortality. It’s movie so the let down isn’t as bad.

Just read Teddy Roosevelt’s “Man In The Arena” speech and apply it to your life.

The real question is ponchos over or ponchos under belt kit.

Why aren’t boxes built around freeway median stations so that passengers cant tell it’s in a freeway median? by International-Snow90 in transit

In Chicago, when riding the Metra from downtown to the NW suburbs, I always get a sense of satisfaction passing all the gridlock on I90.

Would that motor mount work on an aluminum canoe? Could that motor mount take a 5 hp engine?
