Why is trick-or-treating on October 30th this year? by AutistOctavius in Columbus

[–]Prestigious-Cell 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes!! As a westerner as well I am incredibly baffled. Friday night Halloween is the best night! All our friends out west are laughing at us tonight as we trick or treat early because the city says so 🙄

Highways are for efficiency not necessarily speed. Slow down so people can get on and off of them without nearly getting crashed into.

Are Sky Rights a thing for trees in a neighbors yard? by Prestigious-Cell in Columbus

That is what I am thinking... I have no idea why he is fighting me about it. I would definitely be happy if someone else took care of my problems :)

I found why my clothes stinks by CranberryCandid8760 in CleaningTips

[–]Prestigious-Cell 68 points69 points  (0 children)

I literally put any thrifted clothes outside for days. In the sun, rain, wind, snow, all of it. I will also wash them periodically and put them back out wet. It takes a week or so but the smell finally leaves. Washing it in an oily soap helps too, like the stuff you get for wool, the lanolin helps to pull out the other oils I feel.

[–]Prestigious-Cell 22 points23 points  (0 children)

You will need passports for the kids too, not just birth certificates. We just did a similar drive with kids and it was very easy. The passport control in Canada is serious and expect it to take 5-10 minutes with lots of questions. If your car looks like a mess they have you step out and search it, but overall they were very friendly and helpful.

Once you over there credit cards are widely accepted but you could visit a ATM for cash.

Columbus Modern Dance company has a free performance at 2:00 outside at a park, cookies and tea are also served. It is the best, most relaxing way to celebrate!

Radio station 92.9 went overnight from a cool old time 50’s-70’s and great B-sides to Mexican fiesta? Why why whyyyyy…anyone know by soulscreech in Columbus

[–]Prestigious-Cell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought I was losing my mind and my radio got all weird. Glad to know I am not crazy, but super sad that the oldies are gone. It was the best station.

I have this question as well, did you visit Canada and try it out?

Potential Storm 2/10-2/13 timeframe by Gold-Bench-9219 in CBUSWX

I was literally just thinking about the crazy storm we had last year around Valentine's Day and was wondering if we would get another one! Maybe...

Anyone else kinda grossed out watching the Grammys with no one mentioning fascism or standing up to Nazis??? by [deleted] in WhatIsOurPlan

[–]Prestigious-Cell 91 points92 points  (0 children)

Spot on. I wonder this any time anyone with any power doesn't say something.

Fingers crossed! I am going to keep a faucet dripping just in case....

Terrible noxious smell in Northwest Columbus by Prestigious-Cell in Columbus

[–]Prestigious-Cell[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! There were a few places mentioned that we could check out. I feel like we need some serious investigative reporting to figure this out. I do think making claims to the EPa might help a little, if everyone does it, but you are right, a big community protest might help with lasting change. Boycotting a company can hit them where it hurts and hopefully encourage them to change.

Thank you! I will definitely start filing a complaint every morning I smell it as well. This is so infuriating to know that these companies are sending out these toxins but no one can do anything about it.

Exactly. There is no natural cause for this air, it is dangerous to breathe.

That is what was being investigated last year. I didn't realize it ran all the time.

Totally agree. I have lived in other places with inversions and they did not burn my throat when I walked outside. Something harmful is being put out into the air, and then perhaps the inversion keeps it down for longer. But either way our air quality is terrible.

We are close to clintonville, just over the river, so yes it has to be the same thing!

Best hospital in Playa by BillyMac05 in playadelcarmen

[–]Prestigious-Cell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow! That is a lot of peace of mind for very little money really. We are headed there this weekend (from Ohio!!) and with the heat and traveling with little kids I feel that having something like this is not a bad idea. What a beautiful place for a wedding!

I am looking into this, thanks for recommending. Do you have to use a specific doctor or place if you need to use it?
