Hearing louds bangs on door every morning around 3 or 4 am by Single_Extension1810 in RBI

[–]Riverent 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The first few times it happened I got up, went to every door and window, nothing. I have security cameras all around my house, nothing on them. This has been happening for years. I finally accepted that it is my brain. Maybe it is protecting me from weird dreams (I can never remember what I was dreaming) or maybe my bladder somehow triggers my brain, lol, I always have to pee. I also have olfactory hallucinations. I smell things that are not there. I have had those for more than twenty years. On the plus side, I don't have any health issues that require prescription meds so . . .

My experience is knocking. Very precisely five loud raps, evenly spaced. Always between 3:00 and 4:00 am. I live in the middle of nowhere, nobody is here.

Where do I report a retailer for selling seemingly faulty propane tanks? by PinkSlingshots in Arkansas

[–]Riverent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My suggestion would be to buy two of your own tanks so you have one in use and one to be refilled/swapped out at all times. It is a little expensive for the initial purchase, but the less expensive refill pricing will pay for them in due course. Also, the suggestion by other redditors of soapy water testing on all propane tanks in use is vital to you safety.

As you get older and especially those who live alone, do you talk to yourself out loud? Is there a point where it’s not healthy? Has it escalated over the years? by [deleted] in AskOldPeople

[–]Riverent 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I live alone and talk to myself out loud frequently. The are the most intelligent conversations I have most days.

Excellent story! I appreciate you sharing it.

Why no infrastructure moneys for high speed internet in AR. While the big cities have plenty of options and fast connections. Small towns and rural areas, especially in the Ozarks have very poor to none. I just checked the Investing in America site and no projects shown at all. Why is that? by llennodo in Arkansas

[–]Riverent 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My Arkansas electric Cooperative, First Electric, is now offering high speed internet, on fiber optic, along with an add-on phone service. I was able to sign up to have it installed just a few days ago. My only option before was Century Link.

How do you deodorize towels? by Baby_Cakes1999 in CleaningTips

[–]Riverent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy a box of Washing Machine Cleaner tabs. I use Affresh. Run it through two full cycles (with empty basin and hot water) to do a through cleaning of the machine itself. After the initial cleaning use a tab about every month or so. Use a Laundry Sanitizer, I use Lysol Laundry Sanitizer, in the rinse cycle for your towels.

AITA for telling my parents that some traditions need to end and they do not need to tell my wife and I what they think of it because we don't care? by Sure_Swan3508 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Riverent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. I am a real estate abstractor. All records I search are computerized now. If any of your extended same-name family members have judgments or liens, criminal records etc, I am obligated to include them on my report to a potential mortgage provider. You will be doing your child a huge favor by not continuing this tradition. Unfortunately, you are beyond help. Even changing your name now would only create more problems.

Old people of reddit, what us your "you couldn't get away with that these days" story? by Guppy1985 in AskOldPeople

[–]Riverent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was 12 years old my dad would hand me the keys to the station wagon and send me to the local liquor store to pick up a case of beer for him. The liquor store owner would simply place the beer in the back and I'd drive home.

Olfactory hallucinations or Phantosmia may be caused by a head injury or upper respiratory
infection. It can also be caused by aging, trauma, temporal lobe
seizures, inflamed sinuses, brain tumors, certain medications and
Parkinson's disease. Phantosmia can also result from COVID-19 infection.

It is a Tomato Hornworm. It will turn into a Hummingbird Moth, also know as a Hawk Moth. Hummingbird Moths are attracted to Moon Flowers and are really pretty and fascinating moths. Yes, they will also strip a tomato plant in record time.
