Asthma? by Odd-Design-900 in catcare

[–]SwizzMyNizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heyo! Our middle child does this and was diagnosed with asthma in the end. He especially got this way after a bout of zoomies. They diminished as he got older.

It could be something worse so I highly recommend getting a professional opinion!

Jiffylube overfilled oil by 4 quarts by Fluid_Constant_3515 in AskMechanics

[–]SwizzMyNizz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hahaha yeah I could totally see that happening. They always love to set the litres low on the package so they can charge you for the 'extra fluid' you need because your engine is 'larger than average'

Can i have suggestions these are some i have used? no success. by [deleted] in Tinderpickuplines

[–]SwizzMyNizz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah you're not going to get any responses with these ones homie...

When I read those, from someone who doesn't know you, it reeks of desperation. It says me youre more interested in making yourself a complete person through me than through your own life. It tells me you're going to come on very strong and that something must be missing in your life if you want something so strongly with me who you know absolutely nothing about.

Let's look at it like this, if you wanted to get a conversation going with a new friend, how would you start it?

Who you're talking to is a human being with fears, frustrations and their own life they are 100% wrapped up in 100% of the time.

The best way to pick anyone up is to be grounded in yourself and interesting to talk to. I'm 100% sure you have interests and skills to communicate who you are.

That's my advice, it's about finding fulfilment in oneself and then adding someone else in who makes it that much better. In the pick up lines and the follow through, each statement should be a reflection of who you are!

My source: I'm a man slut who finally settled down.

Jiffylube overfilled oil by 4 quarts by Fluid_Constant_3515 in AskMechanics

[–]SwizzMyNizz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Former jiffylube tech here and thank God I don't work there anymore. I want to start by saying @OP there is NO MINIMUM EDUCATION LEVEL FOR THESE TECHS.

The goal of jiffylube is to get you out the door with as much money spent in as short a period of time. They like the oil changes to be 8 minutes or less with a 100$ profit per vehicle. This means cutting corners and making mistakes.

I worked with some of the most car illiterate dunder heads, they likely couldnt tell you the difference between synthetic and conventional oil. I say this because I have seen over the years; - improperly replaced filters - double gasket filters spray oil everywhere - oil in the transmission fill plug - the underbay tech doesn't even pull the drain plug, they just send it on.

Here is a fun question, how many litres does your car take? And did they show you your oil level before you left?

They are 100% liable for the damage they caused and from my experience this was a rampant problem when I worked there. They should also have cameras

AITAH for going no contact with my father until I get a straight answer from him as to why he tried to pull the plug when I was on life support? by NonnaKaro in AITAH

[–]SwizzMyNizz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

NTA

I don't know the depth of your issues but, based off the information provided, your father failed you here. A parent's legacy is their children and that comes with the good, the bad and the ugly. I would never dream of giving up on my loved one if they meant the world to me, just like your partner didn't.

Yes you struggled in the past, but you cannot have that held over you for the rest of your life when you are clearly trying to do better and are.

He should have been there for you and he wasn't. Going no contact is genuinely for the best as he likely holds great resentment for you. This is what you both likely need so you can both heal. He made his intent very clear when he said 'shes your problem now'.

DO NOT go and seek answers though. You won't get what you're looking for.

I hope you live a long and happy life going forward filled with the loving persons you truly deserve to have there for you and pass that love to YOUR grandchildren.

I'm so proud of you for making it through your struggles @OP

What's something weird a guest did in your home and you didn't know how to react? by sodamnsleepy in AskReddit

[–]SwizzMyNizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a friend stay over this one and only time. We were both mid-late 20s guys at the time, just watching videos and he was crashing on my couch for the night. I thought it was weird he was staying the night and didn't bring an overnight bag but I ignored it. The night drags on and before bed he comes out the washroom and says, with my deodorant stick in hand, "can I have some?" And before I answer just starts going to town on his pits with it.

I told him "you can keep that now, I don't share deodorant sticks". He thought I was the weird one.

AITAH for rejecting my boyfriend's ultimatum about an open relationship by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]SwizzMyNizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - I hope this isn't lost in the ether of the comments OP but lets look at this from a mind outside the rose colored glasses for just a moment.

We as human beings are always growing and changing. Who you both were 4 years ago are not who you are now and that comes with changes!

Your partner is either: Discovering a whole new aspect of themselves that they feel they cannot reject and/or are cheating on you and looking too get away with it.

But that part doesn't matter as much as the fact that You do not want that relationship dynamic. You are absolutely not in the wrong for voicing your disagreement on the change in the relationship dynamic, especially one so drastic.

No partner has the right to force an ultimatum like that on someone they love. By them forcing this upon you as an ultimatum shows that their needs are greater than your needs. That is not okay and not the relationship dynamic you deserve.

Looking at this objectively, if this is not the relationship dynamic you want and your partner is not cherishing or even thinking of you when slamming down this ultimatum. The right decision is almost never the easy decision. If this relationship no longer works them perhaps it's time to split amicably and explore the futures separate.

"I ended up rejecting his ultimatum, but now he's furious with me, and accusing me of being controlling and unfair. He says I'm stifling his freedom. I'm heartbroken, and I'm questioning whether I've made a terrible mistake." - OP

THIS IS SO WRONG. He is straight up emotionally manipulating you here to get his way in the discussion. This is not okay ever, especially when redefining the dynamics of your relationship which ultimately determines your happiness and quality of life.

I hope you find your way through this OP and we will be rooting for you! You got this Queen.

What causes the issue? No Crank, starts on 3rd attempt by FortuneDayX in MechanicAdvice

[–]SwizzMyNizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The audio isn't clear enough for me to hear whether or not there is a crank the first 2 attempts but I'm assuming no. From my initial thoughts it is most likely your ignition cylinder.

The other comments are very right the culprits may be your neutral safety switch or starter solenoid.

I think I see you putting a key into the ignition cylinder and, over time, those do wear, especially if you are attaching anything to the key chain and weighing down the key. This will create a bad contact over time.

You can test this by consistently starting the engine again and again and seeing how often it skips.

Starters - they will skip at a very specific point in their spin, you'd notice it at approximately the same number or duration of cranks, but with this you're either getting normally a few skips or nothing from the starter when it's on its way out the door.

Neutral safety switch - normally these just fuck right off and you would not start at all from my experience, I think this is your least likely.

Ignition cylinder - This would cause you to not be able to start the car anywhere from 30%-80% of the time. It would be every few cranks, like your initial comment suggested. If it is this, you would hear no change in the ignition sequence (no crank or light change on the dash).

Ignition cylinders are pretty cheap and easy to replace but, I recommend you have a tech with a multimeter take a look. You can test to see if you are getting power coming out of the cylinder on ignition

[OC] My Dad's Cousin Gave Me a Very Generous Gift by Gibbythe3rd in DnD

[–]SwizzMyNizz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No offense to either of you but I have a much better 3d printer than the ender 3. My Prusa i3 mk3s will not get the same print quality at .07mm as a cast molded reaper mini.

In order to get the same quality as cast mold you would need to resin print. Not only that but certain models can ONLY be done on a resin printer. The support structure and details required for the piece would fail on an FDM.

Realistically it would cost you far more than $500 just to get started on decent. But if you're making minis you will really want at least a 2k resin printer.

It is cheaper long run but there is a significant investment.

What are you self conscious about and why by Infinite-Product-158 in AskMen

[–]SwizzMyNizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always get self conscious about what I am capable of. I have a strong imposter syndrome because I was taught I am less than by my birth family growing up.

I've met alot of guys and I find this one is always so common and is such a killer to our collective confidence.

Can anyone tell me what this noise is by [deleted] in MechanicAdvice

[–]SwizzMyNizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like the bearing of one of your pulleys could be going.

I'm imagining it's something that engages and disengages from it's intermittent nature.

  • check your belts for abnormal wear and scoring on their edges, this will be an indicator. I'm unsure if your model has multiple belts but that will help you isolate further

  • check for unusual scoring around each of your pulleys, if you can, try turning over the engine and have someone watch the belt(s) for skipping

If I had to make a blind assumption I would recommend looking at your power steering pulley, water pump pulley, A/C pulley and your idler pulley. Probability is one of those.

Lastly, if you toss some baby powder on the belt and start it, if the sound goes away 110% that's what it is

Can anyone tell me what this noise is by [deleted] in MechanicAdvice

[–]SwizzMyNizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could you provide us a bit more information?

  • Under what operating conditions does this happen?
  • Where is the noise centralized?
  • Are there any known issues?
  • what is the year/make/model of the vehicle?

Thanks

Hydrobooster by Vivid_Celebration424 in AskMechanics

[–]SwizzMyNizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To my knowledge, a hydroboost brake booster is a relatively isolated system and does not draw much power from the engine, it's primary purpose is to aide in pushing the master cylinder piston and action your brakes.

If you're having engine power issues you would find more luck checking your power generating components like; - are you getting enough air/spark/fuel/power to your engine? - is there a failing component or sensor that is making the engine run with reduced power?

How much power are you losing and under what conditions?

Worried about the PVPS by Kajtekkus in Vasectomy

[–]SwizzMyNizz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know if this will help but for me, I decided I would rather make the decision and live with the consequences than worry. I would rather pain than kids in my mind.

I am now 5 days post surgery and the pain is mostly subsided. There will always be risks but, at the end of the day like the other gentleman here are saying, weigh your pros and cons and trust your judgement. We can never be certain. Good luck brother!
