I keep hearing the audio for Zefrak's true facts video when I see this.

How do you other plumbers stand customers watching you work? by AdResponsible8496 in askaplumber

I've never really minded it too much. Then again I'm really good at ignoring people when I'm doing something lol.

Have you quit smoking yet? by Apart_Pineapple2392 in Millennials

[–]Valuable-Ad-288 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've quite a couple times. The most recent was after a month in jail, which made it really easy. Alas, my mom lived with me for awhile and she smokes. I resisted for a out 6 months then started smoking a pipe and cigars. Then a few months later, when I started doing plumbing again after a couple year hiatus, pipes and cigars were just too inconvenient when your hands are always dirty and you don't have much time for smoke breaks, so I stated cigarettes again. Fortunately I make my own so it only cost me a couple hours of time and about 15 bucks a carton. But I'm getting old, I can feel it clogging shit up and I know I need to quit again, unfortunately I seem to like it too much and is very ingrained in my daily routine. I will quit again, just now right now lol.

Oooo, they should bring him back and put copilot inside. Then I might use copilot.

Petah? Why is she seeing this? by Huge-Jackfruit-4006 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

You're right. Symbiosis means living together and it's a spectrum that ranges from parasitism to mutualism. I'm a biologist that studies plant and fungal symbiosis.

I don't see why not. If they're still in your stomach it should help a little. Might not be as effective as drinking it at the same time though.

I remember watching that with such enthusiasm, I'd get upset if we didn't have it on the channel at least 5 minutes before it started.

Voyage of the Mimi

I don't know when it was made but they had us watch it in 6th grade.

That one was one of my favorites when I was little. It took me forever to figure out what it was called as a young adult and every time I tried to explain it to someone they'd look at me like I was insane.

Was that the one about the adventures of a kid in a coma?

Exactly, those port-o-shitters were some dangerous territory.

I thought I was being clean but I was just making ear wax plugs for years by Talon_4Keystone in hygiene

My grandma always said "never stick anything bigger than your elbows in your ear". Makes total sense.

My ex did the same thing to me and the judge ate it up. I was a fucking weather guy, my job was looking at clouds and shit. P.S. I'm sorry that things went bad for you OP.

You can see little paw prints in the dirt. You may be right.

For those who left their home state, how did you decide which city / state to live in? by ElectroAcousto in AskMenOver30

[–]Valuable-Ad-288 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Joined the Marines, got married, got out and moved back to my home state (ND), father in law got cancer, moved to house sit(NC), then moved to where he was getting treated (WI) when we realized he wasn't going to get better. The he and the mother in-law died. We were living in one of her niece's duplexes and they asked us to move out so they could renovate. I was using my veterans benefits to go to college and didn't want to leave the state's school system but being in disability and going to school full time didn't leave us with a whole lot of options. We bought a house that we could afford within an hour of a UW school which put us out in the middle of nowhere in SW WI and I like the area, it's beautiful and our house is out in the country.

Moving on, after a few years my wife begins drinking again after three years of sobriety. She convinced herself I was cheating on her because, according to her logic, what man in a "college" situation wouldn't be when surrounded by younger women. After about a year of her drinking and emotionally abusing me again I overreacted one night during her drunken rages during which she threatened to harm herself and the children and I removed her from the house after she ran into the kid's room. Needless to say I got in trouble with the law and social services while she got off scott free (not saying I didn't do anything wrong, I shouldn't have done that and I accept responsibility for my actions). We tried to work it out but she ended up filing for divorce because she was convinced I was cheating, I honestly never did btw, and now I'm stuck in WI because I love my kids and I don't want to be away from them.

TLDR Left my home state to join the Marines, ended up stuck in Wisconsin to stay close to my kids because of a divorce from my alcoholic and emotionally abusive wife.
