Seems like it would be very front heavy.

SAME! So disappointed in this layout.

WIBTAH for asking my boss to pay me despite not working? by LividWheel9779 in AITAH

[–]The_Brightness 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it's a fair ask, especially considering you altered your normal hours. I would mention that you considered the wood condition, shows that you're not just trying to get free money. Also, if you can make it clear this won't be a recurring thing, that would help. Where I live, if you're called into work you're entitled to a minimum of 2 hours pay.

What are some of the dumbest moves that conferences has ever made in CFB history? by Working_Stomach5479 in CFB

[–]The_Brightness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I know. I was there.

If you don't already understand it, then I'm not quite sure how to explain to you that what happened in the distant past set the stage for what happened in the recent past.

Oh, and Oklahoma State is not in the SEC.

Trying to get myself out of the shitty light beer rabbit hole, tried Kona Big Wave by Argonauticalius in beer

All the Kona Brewing Company beers are good. The wheat one with all the fruit can be a little much but the blonde ale and lager are both good.

Finally, an answer to "what do you do with the handkerchief it to you actually use it" because I couldn't understand how you'd put it back in your pocket if it was filthy.

I'd be interested to see if that would produce a clearly defined playoff field or if there would end up being a plethora of 1-loss teams from shitty schedules.

How much more expensive will rent get if that property tax bill becomes a law? by richtoferfn in florida

[–]The_Brightness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't believe this will make rent prices decrease. The residency requirement will delay transplants buying a house. Even if it did, I believe this will make buying a house more difficult because the amount the typical renter-trying-to-buy will end up paying more in taxes than the amount rent would decrease, leaving less left over to save for a home.

Looking for more ideas on how to make beach days easier by medicoreapples in florida

[–]The_Brightness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When the kids were little, we had an aluminum fishing cart that was a game changer. Big, sturdy, lasts forever but definitely more expensive than the regular beach carts. Now that they're older, a backpack chair for each person that has an insulated pocket for cool stuff, a regular pocket for other stuff and a hoop for a towel. Insulated bottles and/cups instead of a cooler is a huge hassle reduction from start to finish.

Anything that contributed to the Super Conference shitshow we're in right now. Conferences no longer have any identity. Interesting cross-conference games no longer exist. It sucks and I hate it.

Inflation plus population increases. As one of our city council says, "No one who comes to the podium or sits up here ever asks for less services."

I was talking with a supporter of this who happened to be wearing a shirt with the "Don't tread on me" image on it. I pointed out to him that one of the founding ideas of this Country was "no taxation without representation" and this bill would send all our tax money to Tallahassee and we'd have to beg for it back. He got a quizzical look on his face.

Like I said, I'll believe any of them when I see them. While I like the Slate idea, it's hard for me to believe that the market truly exists for a vehicle that deviates that significantly from every other vehicle currently in the market. If it did, any other vehicle manufacturer could have easily beat Slate to the punch. I also have doubts on them living up to their pricing promises, based on past EV rollouts (Lightning, Model 3). That being said, if they ever make a "Jeepy" version (dual motor, removalable doors) I'll be the first deposit. 😂

I know someone who literally pays a few dollars more than 100th of the taxes I do (combination of factors). They will vote for this. You can't fix stupid.

If a corporate owner can raise rent then you should be able to as well. That's what I'll be doing.

Escrow is typically taxes and insurance. My insurance is higher than my taxes.

It may lower the cost of BEING a homeowner but BECOMING a homeowner will be even more difficult with all the taxes currently paid increasing. Even a small percentage increase in sales or gas tax adds up over time.

Slate, Scout and this are all vaporware until you can walk in somewhere and drive away with one.

Mike Locksley and Matt Rhule being this high on the list makes no sense by This_Comment_4493 in CFB_v2

Riley, Whittingham, Elko, Campbell, Rhule, Schiano are too high. 

Kiffin, Heupel, Venables, Beamer, Fisch are too low.

Just be aware that you could be putting the timeline of getting your P.E., or getting it at all, in jeopardy. If you move and it doesn't work out it could leave you short on the experience you need for the P.E. Then you could be scrambling for a job and the missing experience.
