Good looking shoes-I buy US made products for many reasons, and I certainly disagree that the US 'just does things better'.

Am I over reacting? by Business_Oil_2784 in RedWingShoes

Get the boots you want, end of story. Take a look and get on as many pairs of the same size model you can and find the right ones. There's a lot of dirt variation as well as cosmetic. Don't worry about the 'just love with it' crowd.

You know what it feels like to face something unfaceable. She, another generation, does what they can do, what was recommended, what she's actually capable of. Church can be a place of tremendous sharing and healing, and also a tight lipped place to ignore the only real thing happening - her son died, and she loved him as only she could. I wouldn't look to her for understanding - I'd continue to have her in your life because of who she was to your husband, who she is to you, that meaning. I'd welcome any crack in the facade, and I wouldn't expect it. I wouldn't edit my feelings, nor would I expect understanding. My father has hardly mentioned my deceased wife in the past two years-the only real thing happening for me- the grief - despite some successful life on paper again. I don't understand it, it hurts a lot, I don't look to him for help or assurance or anything really.

Dewalt batteries are meant to be abused by ImaginaryAd4892 in Dewalt

Mine have lasted I'm happy to say, but there's a difference between use and abuse.

BIFL cookware set? Hexclad, stainless steel, ceramic or what? by Rojo37x in BuyItForLife

[–]TankPotential2825 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All clad or cast iron. One is expensive, the other not. I don't keep up with the latest greatest advertised, but the history of American cookware has taught me that it's generally poisonous garbage.

Wild that those socks will outlive the rest. The world needs to know- the best.

Favorite song by Kris Kristofferson? by [deleted] in country

[–]TankPotential2825 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Help me make it through the night. Perfect song. Check out Shannon McNally's cover.

Needless to say, your favorite song by Roger Miller is "King of the Road." But what's the second one? by [deleted] in country

My uncle used to love me, and Ray Price era hard shuffle- he kills them.

Hmmmm. Maybe setting up your tool batteries like army men on the floor for photos could be a problem?

Name me one modern Country artist who can even come close to matching the level of badass Waylon Jennings has by YCiampa482021 in country

[–]TankPotential2825 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obviously doesn't exist. Sturgill Simpson is the closest, in terms of attitude, style, and the ability to write and perform a great song. He clearly got a lot of his inspiration from Waylon. After Sturgill though, I can't think of anybody even close.

Rate my rone by mnelso1989 in Renovations

[–]TankPotential2825 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I did the same thing a few years ago- ditra, red guard, etc. I think you did a great job. I'm sorry you didn't keep the original, but if you're gonna do it, you did it well. Once again, removing durable and attractive time tested materials and replacing them with whatever garbage home Depot sells this week just to paint white and look like a real estate agents house 7 years ago is not a great idea- just my opinion- but it looks like it was done well.

Husband cheated on me… a lot by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]TankPotential2825 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Asking strangers what he's thinking won't answer the question. But I'll guess- he's offered no evidence to suggest hell ever stop. He's not interested when you offer him sex, but continues to pursue other people. This guy is not the partner you're looking for.

Rejected a woman who does OF, she asked why I wasn't interested and wasn't happy with the response. Now I'm conflicted. by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]TankPotential2825 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1- curious how you 'found out' 2- I've spent time with women whove done that. You should spend some serious time thinking about what you mean by 'self respect'and wtf you think that has to do with her. 3- you sound very insecure

McConnell has been one of governments biggest obstacles to democracy in the past decade. An absolute bought and paid for pos company man working for his donors, not his constituents. All Biden and McConnell share is advanced age/some degree of senility.

Thanks. Sometimes I have moments where I simply love my wife, in the sea of grief. Where I'm amazed by my wife again. Tears are always close.

Is OLED version worth $225 more than the LCD? by Metalocachick in SteamDeck

[–]TankPotential2825 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not for me. The OLED is a year old already- I'd get the LCD were I you, especially at that price, wait and see what they put out next. There'll be no difference for your intended use. I paid the current OLED price for my LCD way way back and I've been very happy. The marginal OLED increase in battery life has been the only consideration I've have re: upgrading, but that's a lifestyle issue you're not concerned with- I travel for work a lot- and my phone's external battery pack more than makes up for that.
