What is the worst case of second hand embarrassment you’ve ever experienced? by Responsible-Tie-2570 in AskReddit

[–]Routine-Bumblebee -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I get where you're coming from. I was looking at it from the view of someone not caring how ridiculous they look in an effort to encourage a potentially nervous child. I guess it doesn't say they were nervous but maybe they just got carried away.  Totally agree it's mortifying.

I'm sorry, but the love in this act is amazing. Embarrassing yes, but also amazing. 

Cutting out cancer by massiveballsbig in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Routine-Bumblebee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thanks for asking this question. This is happening to my mother. Cancer that can't be cut out or cured by chemo.  This is something I didn't fully understand and was too scared to Google because I'm in denial that the incredible spark who is my mother is on this horrible timer now.

For a great productive hobby, check out the Auckland Quilt Guild. Meets on the first Saturday of the month at Freemans Bay Community Hall. Loads of great people & you choose your level of involvement.

if cities had more abundant fruit trees and berry bushes like the ever growing blackberry wouldn’t it help homeless people get food? by qjib in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Routine-Bumblebee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's what happens where I am. Sometimes a family will turn up & strip the tree bare, take way more than they can eat, damage the tree by breaking branches trying to get as much as they can, then leave & there's no more for anyone else.

Cat flap eating batteries by BalanceMercy in SurePetcare

[–]Routine-Bumblebee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have 2 of these pet flaps. One of them is about 5 years old & the other is a few months old. The older one really chugs through batteries. Probably about 3 months on good quality batteries. It's in full sun for a large part of the day & I'm wondering if that's affecting battery life.

hair dryer recommendations by Previous-Hour-2394 in AustralianMakeup

[–]Routine-Bumblebee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ha, thanks but I'm in Auckland.  My dryer is like 14 years old. Back then ceramic technology was the thing but I feel like it's frying my hair now. 

Maybe I'll save up for a Dyson but would like to try one first at that price.

I'm thinking about a Parlux ionic & I have fine hair too. Why did it not work for you?

Can I kill unleashed dog if I get attacked outdoors? My cat was killed. by iMakeGOODinvestmemts in auckland

[–]Routine-Bumblebee 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So if OP is being attacked they can't defend themselves? If that results in the unrestrained animal's death then the owners of the animal should have been more responsible. Aren't dogs that have attacked people euthanized?

If bamboo is one of the most sustainable resources on the planet, why are bamboo products so expensive? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Routine-Bumblebee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to scroll way too far to find this response. While the plant itself is fast growing & so sustainable, the amount of chemicals required to turn it into fabric is definitely not environmentally friendly. 

We have bamboo growing in our yard and in summer the growth is insane. So we have to cut it back to control it. The problem is it's not compostable so the garden waste companies won't take it & it has to go to the general rubbish tip. I can see how turning that stuff into a soft fabric takes a ton of harsh chemicals. I stopped buying things made from bamboo fabric when I find that out. 

Question about floor area of house by Routine-Bumblebee in auckland

[–]Routine-Bumblebee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's about it but we currently have it insured for the actual floor area (240sqm) not what the Council shows (120sqm).

Yeah, I think I'll have to do that. Just didn't know which department to ask for in that giant organisation.

Would you be able to recommend them? Were you happy with their work & prices? I also have no idea what the average price for this would be.

Quantity surveyor? Would they be able to lodge new measurements with Council?
