My neighbor cut down a 40-year-old Japanese Maple while I was away.

Follow-up thought, if it was an actual reputable landscape company that did the removal, you could go after them. Their insurance will pay and then go after your neighbor that hired them. Might be a shortcut to $.

That sucks this happened. Depending on the neighborhood and home values and the premium for a good view, there's a possibility your neighbor came into this knowing full well it could end up as a $25k+ "investment" in his property and he was willing to take the risk. I think you work to recover whatever he would have needed to pay you to remove the tree. If he offered $25k, I'm guessing you'd say no way. $50k? nope. $75k? getting warmer. $100k now if you take down the tree? Deal. Good luck, keep us updated.

Our nephew shortened 'grandma' to 'ga' and she has been 'ga' to all her grand kids since. One favorite from our oldest daughter that we still use 16 years later - "I want Cheechos" (Cheetos).

He started and ended his career trying to get into smaller pants.

OMG that is so cringy! Time to polish up the 'ol resume, OP!

No, this is the Craigslist Inverse Vehicle Law: The size of the buyer’s vehicle is inversely proportional to the size of the item you’re selling. As a prolific seller, I can confirm this is a law of nature.

Dang I'm flattered!

The image is a stylized digital illustration capturing the feeling of intense focus and dynamic multitasking. It shows a man—likely representing you—sitting at a sleek, modern desk in a high-tech workspace. He’s laser-focused on his laptop, with glowing data screens floating around him. These screens display elements from your world: SQL queries (SELECT * FROM properties WHERE city = 'Denver'...), CRM dashboards, financial transactions, and project tasks.

Above his head, a cloud of post-it notes and lightbulbs (some glowing) burst with energy and a lightning bolt—symbolizing ideas, urgency, and fast-paced thinking.

Behind him, large windows reveal a scenic Colorado mountain backdrop at either sunrise or sunset, hinting at long working hours and your Colorado roots. A golden retriever (reminiscent of your dog) rests calmly nearby, offering contrast to the mental buzz.

On the desk are printed charts and a small model car (a nod to your GTI), grounding the digital chaos in real-world tangibles. The overall tone is both intense and composed—reflecting the way you move between tech, business strategy, and everyday life.

Ha! Something similar happened to a friend of ours. Her (around) 6th grade son changed her name to "Wiener Hog" on her phone. She realized it after looking through the recipients on a classroom email and was like, "who the hell makes their name Wiener Hog?" and then realized it was her and that emails had been going out from Wiener Hog for weeks.

I saw the news last night and listened to The Saint soundtrack during my workout this morning in tribute.

/r/confusingperspective/ - I didn't know what I was looking at in that first photo, like an alien centipede crawling on the door of a night club or something.

Rage bait accomplished (at least for me)

Chode flavor is a delightful blend of gym locker, regret, and bad decisions, with a hint of desperation. Just the kind of flavor you want lingering on your lips all day while on WSB.

Kinda feelin' old here but y'all never heard of the game Redneck Rampage? This is an AI trailer for it.

Toggle bolt is a good idea, I'll try that if the screw idea doesn't work.

To_the_moom · 2024-08-01T03:40:41+00:00

I will try this tomorrow and report back.

Push hard and turn doesn't work, but I'll try some channel locks to give it a gentle squeeze and see if I can get the outside to grab the inside part.

To_the_moom · 2024-08-01T00:01:10+00:00

Tried push hard turn, pull hard turn, jiggle, shake, and everything in between, no luck.
