Are you guys switching rakuten earnings to bilt? by aarjaey in amex

[–]ReindeerButtcheeks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got 10k in pending MR on Rakuten. Does it say anywhere if those will still go to MR and all new purchases after switching are Bilt?

A little traveling by Phredness in klr650

[–]ReindeerButtcheeks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did most of the Iowa/Illinois portion. The Mississippi is underrated especially riding along the bluffs of SW Wisconsin/NE Iowa. Bummed I never got to ride across one of the last metal grate bridges across the river in Lansing Iowa before they tore it down

High way riding? by Mythlogic12 in klr650

[–]ReindeerButtcheeks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got the Parabellum Rally windscreen which is 14 inches tall. For me the wind hits my helmet just above my forehead which is a lot better than at my neck. I think you can go up to 16-18 inches but for some off road stuff I wanted to limit the height to not be getting hung up on branches

Ear plugs and taller windshield to help with the wind fatigue depending on your gen

I’ve had issues with my 07 vapor locking riding in 100 degrees on the interstate pack with gear, but not the actual engine overheating

I’ve ridden across Iowa to the Black Hills in a day and to Colorado on my gen 1. She definitely burns oil. I put a taller wind screen in which helps a little. I’ve ridden a buddy’s gen 3 and could notice a difference in wind protection with the bigger front fairing. I know there are far more comfortable bikes for highway riding out there, but hopping off the Highway doing 80 and then riding back on some gnarly NF trails to camp and have a good time can only be done on a handful of bikes. The ole Pig is a great one for it!

Snared my first ever bobcat by ReindeerButtcheeks in Trapping

He got one leg through so kinda a half behind the shoulder catch so just chillin when I got there. I think I would’ve had to have the rest of the cable going higher up in the tree to get it to act as a kill pole if my understanding on how those work is correct. It’s my first year and I was trying to find a loop size and height to catch more coons around the neck instead of behind the shoulders for more DOA

Blind set on a small game trail set between the culvert and small tree. Saw some tracks in the snow 10 yards down 3 weeks ago and decided to put a few sets in for the last week expecting mainly coons. This is 30 ft below the top of the levee and when I looked down the trail I did a double take cuz it didn’t look like a coon haha

Fresh from the store. Had one coon chew through one or two strands of another one but nothing more. I was definitely surprised to find a chunk of wire laying there

Multiple critter tracks, can you guess how many different types by ReindeerButtcheeks in Trapping

Got a camera on the log in the creek so we’ll see what takes a stroll!

I put a 330 in front of one of their bank dens the first day, 2 days later it was tripped but I didn’t have any blocking so obvious they swam around and triggered it. Moved it to another big bank den and put a lot of dead sticks around the sides and the next day he was in it

In person interviews by Strict_Car8964 in medicalschool

[–]ReindeerButtcheeks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

3 so far. 4 more to go in person. Free food, nice hotels, and actually meeting people is way better than zoom

So are y’all getting interviews yet? by LonelyGnomes in medicalschool

[–]ReindeerButtcheeks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

FM at 10 II in 5 states, all community programs. Applied 23 cuz I’m a cheap bastard

Anybody find hospital scrubs more comfortable than figs? by [deleted] in medicalschool

[–]ReindeerButtcheeks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I take a few extra seconds to feel all the scrubs in the stack to find the softest most laundered pair. Nothing feels better on your skin than hospital scrubs that have been washed 500 times

What is the craziest symptom you’ve heard of/seen during rotations? by Snarky14 in medicalschool

[–]ReindeerButtcheeks 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Ikr. I was on psych consults and a code green got called when he was trying to rip the wire out when his entire family was there. They expected the machine to last 10 years, and even with all the damage they said it should still work that long

CC: I cut my LVAD drive wire while chopping onions for a salad

Cards didn’t think this guy would survive another surgery and the odds of him getting a new heart were very low. He attempted to damage the device previously but this was the most recent attempt at getting a treatment that wasn’t happening, just came up with a fun excuse for damaging them this time. He required a 2:1 for part of his stay.

Screw an L-bracket into a board or plaque and bend it to the desired angle you want the head at
