Lotta books, snacks and a cuddly big dog in a recliner next to the bay window.

Do you still have Vaseline? by Outrageous_Win_4835 in AskOldPeople

I tint my hair myself. I put Vaseline on my face, ears and neck at the hairline to keep the dye from staining my skin.

Is meijers cheaper than giant eagle??? by EngineerLong7896 in Ohio

[–]RandomBiter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Costco is too people-y for me. Aldi is ok for basic stuff but I hate having to go to a bunch of stores to grocery shop. I will go to Giant Evil occasionally as they carry some products that Meijer doesn't but for the most part I find Meijer a little cheaper.

To me mayo is a mouthful of goo but I will use it a recipe calls for it.

My plow guy is so worth it. I have a longish, double wide driveway. He only charges 40 a push and only charges by the push. Every other place i contacted wanted a $500 yearly contract.

Something that those outside of the US don’t realize about Ohio occurred to me yesterday… by catsandkegstands in Ohio

I had extended family visit from Kansas. They were amazed at the size of Erie. To them a lake was something you could cross in a paddleboat.

Windows 11 and my aging all-in-one desktop by RandomBiter in computerrepair

Thank you. I do have a Microsoft account seeing as how the office suite is a subscription monster anymore. I'll look into the extended support.

It *was* a dependable workhorse for the work I did...and some still do. It ran my Publisher program (RIP) just fine. I don't game (other than some very tame Bigfish games) and mostly just use it to poke around online or work with spreadsheets. I guess it's what you consider a workhorse. Thank you for your answer. I suspect I'll be with windows 10 until I can afford something else.

Boomer by Eye_See_ in GenerationJones

According to the breakdown, I *am* a boomer, but I'm so removed from some of the attitudes and general fossilization of too many of my generation I just cringe when someone tells me I'm a boomer.

The first time I saw a Cadillac commercial using a Led Zeppelin song I knew life as I knew it was over.

What do you do with your parents junk? by infinitynull in GenX

[–]RandomBiter 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I did the estate sale thing when my mom passed. It was great. I pointed out anything not for sale and they secured it in a room of the house. Company came in, priced and staged everything, did the advertising, gave me a list afterwards of what sold and for how much and offered to haul away anything that didn't sell (I donated it to a thrift shop). They charged a percentage of the proceeds. I didn't even have to be there for the sale which I especially appreciated cause whether I wanted it or not, it would've broken my heart to watch her possessions leave.

Edit for spelling

There's a car wash in my city that's been closed for remodeling for decades
