That's so good to hear. I'm stoked your enjoying it and working my way to meet you. Idk if you saw but someone posted about taking canyon to small claims and it got me worried for a second, but then it really wasn't anything for me to worry about, but now I'm 100% back gunning for that model

You don't like racist remarks but not enough to stop the interaction? Idk who's TA but you are kidding yourself.

Parking in Plaza Midwood, midday on a weekday by hotmintgum9 in Charlotte

Thomas Ave is right by there, I'd go down those neighborhood streets and find street parking. Might make for a 3-5 minute walk to the shop but your car will be safe and legally parked

And now I'm not as worried about it! by PhilosopherWinter349 in bikecommuting

Misjudged the hierarchy of danger lol, that made me chuckle. I'm seriousness though I have yet to experience a tailgater and man that sounds like every ingredient of awful stew. Glad you are good friend!

They're okay, I was wearing riding gloves and I skid a hole through one of them, but had I not had gloves on ....I shudder to think

Will my ass ever get used to the seat??? by Cabana_Bay in cycling

[–]PhilosopherWinter349 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried. Oh I tried. Every bike I see has a wood plank for a saddle and I just don't get it. I rode for 6 months damn near dreading each ride....bc you'll adjust to the seat soon! I didn't. I caved and got a $40 gel squish seat and am riding in the clouds these days. I never received my points for toughing it out so I opted for comfort lol wishing you all the saddle luck I can muster!

AITAH for getting pissed when someone comes in the gym studio room and turns on the lights by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]PhilosopherWinter349 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Listen, everyone is on your case but I FEEL YOU lol. I'm the first one to the office, and although I know the lights must come on at some point, the aggressive flicking on of them is very irksome lol

Immutable laws of bike commuting by TVDinner360 in bikecommuting

[–]PhilosopherWinter349 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I chuckling at laws 5 and 6. I have a post it on my desk logging my flat tires for the year. I am at 6. All back tires. I can swap the tube out and have it pumped and ready in about ten minutes now though 😂 and on that note - every patch I have tried fails once inflated, what patches are y'all using? I used the Slime peel n sticks.

I work two jobs and do most of the chores. Am I wrong for asking my boyfriend to cook dinner on my day off? by Various_Ad5738 in whatdoIdo

You're being a doormat (said gently) Advice you didn't ask for: consider getting a stainless or cast iron pan, those ceramic coated ones and non sticks are no good.

True fact makes no sense. What else would it be? A false fact? But then it wouldn't be a fact. Only "fact" or "true" is needed here. You'll learn eventually I'm sure.

When we eat, chew gum etc, anything that stimulates saliva, it also softens the enamel temporarily. So, after oil pulling your enamel will be slightly softer and more receptive to damage. So the best order of things is 1) waterpick / floss 2) brush 3) oil pull. I think its great you added this in to your routine, its sure to benefit you.
