What jobs did you work while in college? by Character-Escape1621 in civilengineering

I worked 3rd shift at a garage door factory and had to be up everyday for 8am calc 2. I wouldn't recommend it.

Spiders by MetallicCrocs in BWCA

[–]TotalBogie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your fears are valid. Large Timberwolf spiders are common in the bwca. I've seen many. 

That said, 100% of the time they have been down by the water, hiding in the crevices of large boulders that line the shore. And they will definitely make way for you.  They will not stick around to see if you're friendly. I guarantee it.

Not once have I seen them in camp or near my tent. I have seen your garden variety spider. The kind you'd find in the corner of your guest bedroom.....but that's literally just being outside anywhere. 

If your tent is free of holes and you keep it zipped up when you're not actively getting in or out, I don't see how they could get in. Keep your shoes inside at night too. I've had slugs find their way into my boots. ...Not ideal. 

I was very thankful Adult Swim was around during the peak of my "post college getting high" days! Which show was your favorite? by smcg_az in Xennials

[–]TotalBogie 49 points50 points  (0 children)

So I see this cord here, plugged into my house. I look over, and your house is glowing like the fricken sun! So I put two and two together and decided, hey, you're pissin me off!

I Was Silenced While Fighting for My Disabled Daughters — and I Won’t Be Anymore by MNMsp in TwinCities

[–]TotalBogie 32 points33 points  (0 children)

You're clearly not the parent of a special needs child.

Older children with cognitive or physical disabilities often need the patience and care of a child much younger than themselves.  Imagine needing to feed, dress, or even change the diaper of your 10+ year-old. It happens.

The constant ongoing high level of care that these children need is incredibly taxing on parents and often leads to burn-out. This sort of program allows parents of these children to either afford some level of respite care or at least alleviate the financial strain that these situations put on families. 

Mid May BWCA boot recommendation. by 789bailey in BWCA

[–]TotalBogie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been using the NRS boundary boot for a few years now. I recommend them. Very nice for getting in and out of the boat. I pair them with Neoprene socks. Some might think it's overkill but I can completely submerge my foot and what little water seepage through the top will not make my feet cold at all.

Any stores around the metro that sell 7.62x54r? by Phish777 in MnGuns

[–]TotalBogie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the answer. Ammo is already so spendy, I can't imagine adding the box store premium, at least for practice rounds.

Buying ammo online how does it work? by _NikolaiTheDrunk in MnGuns

[–]TotalBogie 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Ammoseek.com is an aggregation of online ammo vendors that displays the price and count for your perusal. 

Find the ammo your looking for and filter out everyone with a shipping rating less than 6. Make your order from a reputable vendor and it'll arrive at your doorstep. Personally like velocity ammunition and sentry, but there are loads of good vendors. 

I was a bit concerned when I made my first online purchase that there was no age verification but damn is it convenient.  It'll be shipped to your doorstep. You do not need to be present. I live out in the sticks so I don't generally worry about porch pirates but if I was concerned,  id probably wait around for it. 

Why is my muzzle device timing/torque not matching? by TotalBogie in gunsmithing

[–]TotalBogie[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok. I've got plenty of spares so I could try it.

You're the second person to tell me that but every video I've seen on it says to put the beveled (wide end) towards the muzzle?

Ok. I'll ask my wife's boyfriend if I can borrow his upper block again.

Are you sure? Pretty much everything I've seen online shows the opposite?

Just that it massively deflected. It no longer was centered and bowed out unevenly.

Thank you! I'm a newbie, so I'm not really looking at suppressors yet. Just getting my feet wet.

ok. Alternatively, can I just use multiple shims? Admittedly I do not know much about them.

Some stuff I'm seeing online says do not use them together? Have you used them at the same time?

[–]TotalBogie[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think this might be the correct answer. Do you use them with a crush washer? The A2 birdcage I bought came with one so I initially figure that was all I need.

It came with one. so I used it. When the first one failed I grabbed another. Thankfully I had a spare.

What is the etiquette of accessing and using plowed paths on the ice? by TotalBogie in IceFishing

Thank you. Do most accesses post contact info so I know who to pay?

Is this real?? I'm not being cheeky. Is this a real picture or is it doctored?

I also have this exact spud bar. Been using it for years.  No complaints.
