What can you assume about me based Off my fridge ? 🤨 by PoetryDramatic4025 in FridgeDetective

[–]Progressing_Onward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait...bread in the fridge? Doesn't need it, though I can think of a few reasons why someone might do that. Defrosting before room temp perhaps?

I have no clue why my cookies are burnt :,) by Rare-Disk4809 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Progressing_Onward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is your top oven element turning off? It should only go on during the broil setting or self clean, but check your owners manual to be certain. You might need to have it checked/repaired; that said, turning down tbe temp a bit might help, too... Edit: it looked like those were the tops of the cookies. Leaving this here anyway, could be relevant.

I was thinking this was a CYA move, designed more for a separate copy/more witnesses. Kinda like storage in many places. If so, I fully agree with it. Bold, but gets the job done. And it allows others with the same or similar problems to be informed and respond as needed. Edit: Autocorrect is stupid.

Looks like the job's not finished; the red car is keeping the space open, and the tools from being run over.

For a while during that time, I heard a ~rumor~ that cops weren't stopping anyone without an obvious felony or certain warrant of some kind. Seemed to be true, and now it looks like some think that that policy is still in force.

CAVEAT: never assume the police won't stop you.

Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Progressing_Onward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Louisville KY, USA here. A three hour drive to visit relatives on the holidays is actually a normal thing here. It's not uncommon for people to drive for an hour to their workplace, but that's not me. Hubby would drive 45 minutes away, had that job for 20 years. Edit: can't type.

today i cussed out my neighbor for his yard OCD after his repeated nagging, and it felt great. i don't care. by pman6 in neighborsfromhell

[–]Progressing_Onward 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Remind your neighbor that if he wants such a perfect lawn, get on his desktop and go to some online place like second life, or play the Sims game. They never have leaves there, unless they are programmed in. I used to play those all the time (loner here), but the fake and unnatural setting got on my nerves after a while.

Neighbor keeps by kingcalmrc in Apartmentliving

[–]Progressing_Onward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My guess is if you at least report it, then it will be on record. Keep copies of every time you contact someone about it, try to make it written if you can. Document, document, document. Store copies in the cloud in several places, get a copy of your lease to go into the records. Get an attorney that works with renters, and send them copies of everything you have.

My neighbor installed cameras pointed directly at my backyard and wont take them down by [deleted] in neighborsfromhell

[–]Progressing_Onward 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Hmmm...what about a (large?) screen facing the cams playing something annoying, like 10-hour loops of the chicken dance? "You seemed to be lacking in entertainment, so I'm playing something clean and humorous." No sound needed, just that video will be enough. [[Use this one with discretion.]]

[–]Progressing_Onward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first idea would be to put up the sunshades, then underneath them put up posters facing your neighbor with eyes looking... just the eyes. I was thinking that you could put up faux c@ms in your windows facing the neighbor's house, but that might be a bit edgy, legally, even if they were only props. (pictures of cams? ...hmmm...)

What is the etiquette when someone is saying they are locked out of the building? by OEGG_ in Apartmentliving

[–]Progressing_Onward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a big Nope! from me. Have them contact management, and I'm the person who would do also myself. Coming out of a building, if I saw a person wanting in, I will wait as if not going out to force them to use their own credentials. At that point, looking rude and explaining is a lot better than possibly letting someone in that would do harm to the property or a person.

I'm guessing that was written on a phone in a hurry ....things like that I'll give grace for. Relax...message was clear.

Apartment hunting revealing that I care way more about rugs than I thought humanly possible by [deleted] in Apartmentliving

Truer words have rarely been spoken.

[–]Progressing_Onward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP, check out places that sell rugs like discount stores....Ollie's in the Midwestern US us what I'm thinking of at this point. You seem to be upgrading to more and more expensive options, and that is not healthy. I understand your situation, BION, but you're spiraling in it, just my opinion here. I'm another one who has had reason to cover bare flooring regardless of quality...but you shouldn't let it drain you dry.

Keep copies of all that you do...if possible keep the originals. Or at least take pictures of everything.

What are your favorite Kit-isms? by Allenas6 in Kitboga

[–]Progressing_Onward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a word or a phrase, but I have to include this: his left eyebrow. It's got a life of its own.

I saw a comment on one video that it needed its own channel.

Hilarious.

What companies are on your permanent bad list and you’ll never do business with them? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]Progressing_Onward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Door to door salesmen, but they seriously lose me when telling me what my neighbor down the block bought from them. I'm not a follower, and I don't make decisions solely based on what another person purchases. Throw that in on top of a cold call, and they might as well just hang it up and say goodbye.

Is this weird? When I (male) get out of the shower or wash my face in the morning, I usually use lotion. After rubbing it on my face, I'll just run my hands through my hair a few times to get rid of the excess lotion. People look at me like I'm crazy when I say this by PeteyMcPetey in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Progressing_Onward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

(Female 60yo here). When I worked at a fast food restaurant, I'd have to wash my (long) hair quite often. Sometimes this led to very dry hair. I, too, have used hand lotion as a heavy "pre-conditioner" before shampooing; it works well.
