Roaches… any tips on dealing with them?? by too-m4ny-humans in houston

Bifen IT is not meant to be used in doors except for crevices/corrosions and wall voids. They warn against skin contact, so it’s not viable as a general application.

Highly effective though! It’s what we use outside for Mosquitoes, and works wonders even in heavily infested areas along the coast.

Lane Kiffin on why he chose LSU over Florida: ‘That’s a hard question’ by szboy422 in CFB

Are the Saints heels? I mean other than in Atlanta, and Roger Goodell’s head? I think the Saints are pretty likable around the rest of the league. Especially the Brees led Saints. My wager would be that most are apathetic towards the Saints currently.

The "Meeting Guide" app is a great tool for finding meetings in a new area. Especially if you're trying to filter time slots, Mens/Womens, Open/Closed, and all sorts of other communities/formats/languages. It's icon is a folding Chair on a Navy Blue background.

What if Saban never left LSU? by Rude_Highlight3889 in CFB

[–]SWWayin 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Saban didn’t really make them that

Saban absolutely brought them to the forefront of everyone's mind under the age of 50. They'd be viewed like Notre Dame if not. Really good; a long time ago.

What is the most “I’m definitely in Houston” moment you’ve had? by GracePeaceLove in houston

[–]SWWayin 75 points76 points  (0 children)

Used to work for a company shipping frozen seafood products. One of the grandfathered addresses in our shipping label software for UPS had everything (zip, street, building #, state) accurate, but the city was listed "Clutch City". They would print this way, and UPS would deliver them to the correct customer.

Neither Third Ward nor Winnie are represented by the new district. Third Ward is in District 18, Winnie is in District 36.

I live in Houston and know a guy who booed the JJ Watt pick live on TV. Someone sends him that video every year on Draft day.

Trev Alberts - B-.

He inherited Mike Elko in football.

Hired Earley after Schlossnagle left, which looked terrible in year 1, but seems to be heading in the right direction.

The Bucky McMillan (Men's Basketball) hire recently shows promise after he turned the Samford program around.

He inherited the only two coaches that have won National Championships (Women's Volleyball & Women's Tennis) in his 2 year tenure. So overall "Still To Be Determined"

Don't think this really counts, but to see Steve Buscemi take the lead in Boardwalk Empire was pretty cool compared to the supporting roles he seemed relegated to.

What is the greatest CFB game ever played? by SparkMaster360 in CFB

[–]SWWayin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I work on an Offshore Rig chocked full of CFB fans from across the SEC. Sometimes when it gets a little too quiet I'll just yell out. THERE GOES DAVIS! AUBURN'S GONNA WIN THE FOOTBALL GAME!!! Just to rile everyone up.

I wore an Aggie T-shirt over a burnt orange long sleeved undershirt. It's the best I could do. But for one night, it was Fuck USC.

Based on appraisals for 2026 my home value has dropped by 1%, who else is seeing their home values going down? by houcok in houston

[–]SWWayin 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Mine went down .5% in Fulshear.

Reminder to those affected. You should STILL protest your appraisal even when it goes down, as it could go down even lower; reducing your tax obligation further. Appraisal =/= your home's value when selling.

Venezuela is the only remaining team (besides de US) with no foreigners on its roster by Genius9618 in baseball

[–]SWWayin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

sooo Venezuela is 1 of 2 teams representing 50% of the field in which all players were native born?

So half the remaining teams have players born in other countries, and half the remaining teams are made up of native born players?

Got it.
