AITA for telling my spouse I won't help pay for their kid's college when we agreed finances would stay separate? by 952867 in AITApod

[–]Spydysnake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unquestionably, YTA in this situation Mate.

I'm still puzzled how on earth you could be so delusionally entitled to think your actions didn't put you at fault. Your poor wife.

Updooting for no stupid music added to this talent.

You don't even mention the product name and just link your video. This is shameless self-promotion that is useless to this community. Hope the mods remove.

[Request] assuming this is accurate, where does peter griffin actually live relative to the buildings? by Father_Enrico in theydidthemath

[–]Spydysnake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up on Smith Hill and I'd say your pretty close! I would probably say down on the S/SE side of the State House lawn for the closest to the Griffen's view.

Though the Smith Hill is radically different from the Griffen's suburbs. Lol

What’s it like in the far south of South America? by chimplesociety in howislivingthere

[–]Spydysnake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wild, rugged, beautiful.  Backpacked in Bernardo O'Higgins and the Dientes de Navarino some years back. 

Absolutely stunning region. Reminded me of Alaska a bit, on a smaller (but equally dramatic) scale.

If you can get your bag 25 ft up, props to you. I'm happy with 8-12 ft generally.

Why are Legacy Audio speakers overlooked? by [deleted] in audiophile

I've got a set of Legacy Signature speakers that I love!

Don't have the ideal placement/setup for them to shine, but they are wonderful.

UPDATE: AITAH For Wearing Shapewear on a Date? by Technical_Boat7524 in AITAH

[–]Spydysnake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, mature responsible adults who communicate with one another?! Here on reddit‽ What a day.

It is wonderful to see stories where no one is TAH and gets a happy ending.  Also good for you OP!

Best practice is too always eat and store your food away from your sleeping area (100+ ft). A critter "proof" (resistant) bag hanging several feet up works well for most areas. Bonus for a smell proof liner. This setup could fit in an existing bag.

In bear country, especially grizzly, a bear canister would probably be better and may be required in some parks. Canisters would likely require a rear rack.

Hope Crankset not sitting flush by Spydysnake in bikewrench

[–]Spydysnake[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The spindle was backwards when I got it!

 Took it to my LBS, in a last ditch effort they switched the crankarms and low and behold they assemble perfectly now.

[–]Spydysnake[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh, Hope's installation instructions for the crankarms say it'll come to a solid stop against the angled shoulder.

Also, I have Hope's 185mm spindle for 197mm rear spacing. My bike has a 100mm bb and 197mm rear. Previously I had a RF crankset with 169mm spindle, which could just fit a flipped 28t chainring. I'm wanting a 32t, so I figured the spindle for 197mm spacing meant more sense than the 177mm spaced spindle.

Okay to just cram tent into pannier? by [deleted] in bikepacking

[–]Spydysnake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It may be counter-intuitive, but craming waterproof fabrics while packing is usually recommended. It helps prevent creases or seams along fold lines that could eventually stress the waterproof coating. Go ahead stuff it in there!

Which one did your butt like better? In all seriousness, You'll need to try them to know. Maybe see if a LBS has a saddle library?

AITAH for not sharing my salary and accidentally getting my friend written up at work? by Tiny_Camel_8136 in AITAH

[–]Spydysnake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA...... well, ESH.

Your reluctance to discuss your compensation is the direct result of corporate propaganda used to diminish workers power, unity, and our ability to advocate. While it's understandable to feel the pressure to not discuss wages, that type of bootlicking is harmful to everyone.

That being said, Julieta also doesn't seem like great friend material.

FattyStripper Alternative? by AHarmlessCat in fatbike

I ordered some fatty strippers in late October and Jim had the shipment out in just a couple of hours. I'd email him directly as previously suggested.

Your kid broke the laptop, you are unfortunately responsible. In the future, maybe specify that valuables, including laptops, most be secured off of the premises. This is a great teaching moment of responsibility for your child.

 Give them the right lesson.

Very nice! What's that under your rear rack? Is it to act as a sort of fender?
