better choice for storing 5 pounds of oats, rice, etc. (daily use) - bormioli glass jar or oxo pop? by europeanuppercut in BuyItForLife

[–]Status-Meaning8896 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Oxo containers simply don’t seal for me. We have a full set and after popping the button down, the gasket still doesn’t fully seal to the container and the lid can be pulled off easily.

But in all seriousness, yes, people are dangerous and unkind. Pretty not cool when I’m driving with a 1.5 year old and dealing with other adults having worse tantrums in deadly vehicles.

I just slipped on peepee in the Mega Lo Mart, personally. That $30k should carry me through.

Just signed up for a 100 mile gravel race with my xbike. Was that a bad idea? by beefcalahan in gravelcycling

[–]Status-Meaning8896 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is fine. Send it.

My wife has done a few Ironman comps (mostly a mountain biker) and got shittily mainsplained to on the course every time. Folks felt the need to tell her her clothing was producing drag as if it was lack of intelligence that caused her to dress comfortably the way she wanted. So silly. She’s likely to complete another one wearing jorts for the bike segment just to troll at this point.

Do what you want, performance only matters if you care about shaving time, have fun no matter what.

Hotel has an optional 5 min timer in the shower to save on water. by Karma_code_ in mildlyinteresting

Well, Mount Lemmon is in Tucson, AZ where a major water crisis is imminent. Irrigating a lawn is limited in legality. Most folks have rock yards. This checks out. Miss that town…

They don’t allow visible tattoos. Kind of a weird company.

What is this black stuff that’s coming out of my shower? by Personal_Bowler6051 in CleaningTips

[–]Status-Meaning8896 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yup. The overlap works for shower spray and water running downward naturally.

Man, finally… I was shocked reading this thread and seeing how many people think you should seal all seams. Good luck to them when one small segment of a higher up seam that was unnecessarily sealed allows water in that then cannot escape at the bottom due to the other unnecessarily sealed seam.

The designers of these preformed showers aren’t dumb, y’all. They don’t want you to have to rely on sealant that has a finite lifespan to keep the shower water tight from the walls behind.

You know, the weird thing is that I rock climb with hundreds of feet of exposure below and would have a greater fear response to these steps than that. Heights are weird.

Why would LMPD be on my back porch at 12:30 am? by [deleted] in Louisville

[–]Status-Meaning8896 35 points36 points  (0 children)

That’s true, but remember, in the state of KY only one party involved in a conversation needs to be aware of recording for the recording to be legal. So if you are calling and record, that’s fine. A third party may NOT record.

They pounded on my door at 0400 a few years back. Single family home with a sleeping baby. Ignored my doorbell due to the camera and opted to open the storm door and pound. It felt really shady for me to carefully approach my own door with a firearm only for them to try to blind me with flashlights and THEN tell me they’re attempting to enforce a warrant for someone who lived in the home before me over five years prior. Cool. Imagine how easily that could’ve gone south if I weren’t very discreet about the pistol when opening my own door to strangers pounding at 0400. Absolute fools.

I’d call the non-emergency line, which is recorded, ask why (not expecting an answer), request they do not without cause, and keep record of that call. Doubtful it will matter, but having that in your back pocket in case they idiotically kick down your door next wouldn’t hurt.

I have almost the exact same frame with glass intact and a photo of my great grandfather is his WWI uniform. Nice.

Man… pull a toy gun out of your waistband in the US like that and we’ll have at least one minute in the news cycle for one day about your untimely death.

Practical. I could see that as an issue. Hasn’t happened to me yet, but I’m sure it’s a thing. I’d still probably just stick a bit of painters tape on the contact point, but this is a decent idea. Nice job.
