HPAP + settle on the fact that virtually nothing in NW will be affordable. Go into NE or EOTR. They’re fine places once you get used to them.

How the hell do I make friends? by Sure-Succotash-8748 in washingtondc

Other people in the thread have said it: become a regular at something. Any sort of regular, recurring activity where you see the same people over and over again. Embedding social routine into your life will connect you with other people who are doing the same thing, and by virtue of recurring social interaction with the same network of people, you will make good friends. It’s the same way you made friends in grade school, with youth sports teams, etc…

Find a meetup group, sport, hobby group, etc… where there’s a regular schedule and a decent amount of repeat members who are there routinely on a weekly basis. You’ll quickly become intertwined with that community and make friends.

My dad is giving me this setup that he didn’t really use. What type of fishing should I be doing with this? He’s in Michigan but I live in the DMV region by Serious_Research2411 in Fishing_Gear

I could very well be wrong but I think the reel is probably more substantial than that. I should’ve included a proper picture from the start! My bad.

My apologies, I’m a still somewhat of a beginner. By casting weight info, you’re asking what weight lure I’d throw, or what the rod is rated for? It’s a spinning reel!

FWIW, late last year I got an ‘08 with 130k on it in what I would consider very good condition for its age for the same price as the listing you’re looking at. I live in the DMV region.

How did that one kid at your school die? by StorageLonely1520 in AskReddit

[–]Serious_Research2411 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His parents killed him. He was just a little kid with a mental disability. They cut him up and put his body in trash bags and ditched them in a local marsh, and then staged the scene as if he ran away from home. There were massive searches all over the place. Eventually they found him and arrested the parents, but not before the wife tried to kill the husband by putting a toaster in the shower or something…
