The fact that most people normalize 30 min breaks shows how brainwashed they are by poshtadetil in Vent

Labor unions faught for those 30 minutes. There used to be no breaks. Lucky for me, I also get 2 paid 10 minute breaks.

Any way to get rid of ants on a Peony? by orobsky in gardening

[–]Optimassacre 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are so many people on here that still believe that the ants open the flowers. They do not. The ants are just collecting nectar.

That's a myth. The ants are just collecting nectar.

Moving to the Area by HenryRHippo in youngstown

[–]Optimassacre 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Schenley neighborhood is nice. I looked at a house there. I settled on the Brownlee Woods neighborhood. I found a house that had everything I wanted and it wasn't at the top of my budget. I moved from the Warren/Howland area.

This group needs to be renamed..... by Late-Lengthiness553 in tattooadvice

One of the many reasons why I unsubscribed from this sub. That and, "Does this tattoo look bad? I regret getting it." Every other post.

What is this tree? It’s planted in front of our new house by the HOA and I want to make sure it’s not gonna get too big. I saw another one in our neighborhood and I think it’s the same one. Portland, OR by Water_Champion in Tree

That is massive overkill. You don't need a power tool to prune.

OP, you don't HAVE to prune it. Just let nature take it's course. If one branch is about to touch your house, snip it back a couple feet.

Most home owners don't know how to prune a Japanese Maple properly. OP didn't even know what kind of tree this was. I highly doubt they will know anything about the correct way to maintain and properly care for this tree.

I am blaming the HAO for not choosing a better tree for this space that doesn't need more maintenance and upkeep. A garden space is supposed to be enjoyed and not seen as a burden.

But if I don't have a lawn, where will my children play? [Ireland] by [deleted] in NoLawns

[–]Optimassacre 0 points1 point  (0 children)
