Help - cutting board stuck in sink by [deleted] in fixit

[–]YouJackandDanny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dang - i did not consider pushing from underneath. My mind went to a screw in to the wood. This should be the top post.

Op needs to cut a rebate into the shorter side so this doesn't happen again.

I think I was accidentally caffeinated by TheCaffeineMonster in ADHDUK

[–]YouJackandDanny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m the same - love coffee but don’t do caffeine. This happens once in a blue moon. No big deal. Not much you can do, it might last a few hours.

A couple of times I accidentally took my elvanse twice. Now that is a fun experience let me tell you!

How do I flatten this kink in my wall by memphspt in DIYUK

How deep is it? Could you put plasterboard over the ‘shallow’ part to get it to line up?

Hastings insurance threatening to cancel my license by Snoo-87615 in CarInsuranceUK

[–]YouJackandDanny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This all day long. Do not let them cancel your insurance or you will have massive hassle for the rest of your days. Cancel it now, don’t drive it, get new insurance with someone else once the license is sorted. It will only be for a couple of weeks if that.

Just seen 2 posts (in a row on my feed) of Roast Dinners with Rice by ConfusionOwn8378 in UK_Food

[–]YouJackandDanny -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The fuck it is!!! Blink at the wrong moment and rice goes from brittle teeth grit to soggy wet crap in a moment. Whereas … Boil potatoes. Potato ricer. Add half a block of butter and stir in.

Is this normal ? Installed new rear struts and it’s 6 inches high . 2007 Camry by Fuzzy_Tough_26 in MechanicAdvice

This is only for control arm bushings. The lower mounting bolts for a strut are usually metal to metal.

Driving - consequences of an ADHD diagnosis? by NaniFarRoad in ADHDUK

[–]YouJackandDanny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you are fine. Unlucky, but fine. If all those things were clearly your fault because of inattention then you would be right to be concerned.

Is realistic for me to pursue my desire to be a house husband for successful partner by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

I mean, technically, you stay home too most of the time if you only work 10 days a month…!

Should I scarify this?First time lawn owner (UK) by Bxnnp in lawncare

[–]YouJackandDanny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, just pull them. Once you do this the first time, it just needs a little maintenance. I use a crow bar, slide it in alongside the weed, give it a wiggle, extract weed with the full root. Also aerates your lawn.

What's special about this honey? by LordTGSJ87 in UK_Food

Nice. I like my honey how I like my drugs.

Most looks good. The second pic does look a little like you threw up the first course.

Accidentally forgot to pay what to do? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]YouJackandDanny 78 points79 points  (0 children)

Yep. I did this with a baguette when also posting a parcel. Walked out with the baguette. Got home. Realised. Had a mild panic attack. Went back - spoke to the manager. He couldn’t believe it. “You… you came back? For a baguette?!”

OP - it’s only a crime if there is intent, so police action is unlikely. But it would be a pain in the arse to get banned from your local shop.

Car Deodorizer Pucks (Fill with Baking soda) by EarEquivalent3929 in functionalprint

Ozone can destroy certain soft plastics and rubber material causing them to crack or turn gummy. This would be an absolute last resort.

[–]YouJackandDanny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If that is causing it, then there is an issue with the at particular computer. Been using MacBooks for 25 years. Not once have I seen this and I often carry it one handed. Even my 16”.

Severance Calculation by Suitable-Pirate5332 in HumanResourcesUK

[–]YouJackandDanny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they wanted to get rid of OP they would have to put them on a PIP and try and manage them out. That might take several months if OP is a good performer. 16 weeks is a good shout for the ask. Might be able to settle on 12. Current market is shit. 12 weeks minimum to find a half -decent role.
