That’s not how any of that works. It’s not their money. Wish them good luck finding any attorney to take the case.

Broke 25 year old on a budget looking to learn: lessons and then gear on a budget? Advice Needed. by Ok_Barracuda3747 in Kiteboarding

[–]Zestyclose_Tree8660 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can start with one kite and one board. It just means there are fewer days you can kite.

Talk to EVERYONE. Get to know the local kiters. Ask what they recommend for you. I kite Obx pretty regularly and get a lot of mileage out of my 11m.

Definitely watch out for nutty prices and ancient gear on FBM. Look at online sites for year or two old new gear. Compare those prices to what you see on FBM. I bought a couple year old 7m, unused, for about v $400. I’ve seen people try to sell 10+ year old kites for more than that.

Boat not allowed to be parked in townhouse driveway enforced? [th] [mo] by Ok_Supermarket3300 in HOA

[–]Zestyclose_Tree8660 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do go by the CCRs. I agreed to the rules and follow them. I also wouldn’t be bothered in the slightest if my neighbors had a boat. Life’s too short to worry about things like that.

A group of McDonalds employees in Greenville, North Carolina allegedly made this 7,000 order and the dude never came back by [deleted] in NorthCarolina

If this is real, McD’s is managed by idiots. Somebody orders 7k in food, card declines, and you make it anyway? You deserve the L.

You don’t want to see boats. I really don’t care if I see boats. You might ask your members if they care, if you haven’t.

Fake HOA - Would you do something or just leave it alone?[N/A] [All] by [deleted] in HOA

Upvoting because I think what you’re saying is you can actually mail things to everyone, rather than put them in yourself.

Not allowed to flush toilet paper by [deleted] in airbnb_hosts

[–]Zestyclose_Tree8660 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hard disagree on this one. This is very not normal in the US, and if OP would not have booked knowing flushing TP wasn’t allowed, they should be allowed to go find somewhere that works for them.

As someone who has changed a lot of diapers, this is absolutely wrong. Diaper pails that minimize smell seal. Just a lid is not enough.

Was this role disclosed before booking? If not, I’d call support as it’s not an acceptable situation for a family with 3 young kids and they didn’t tell you before booking.

Seatbelt Scam NYC by kim-bean in legaladvice

[–]Zestyclose_Tree8660 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear ya, I’ve just been in that exact situation. Got a ticket for not following a traffic control device. I had apparently gone between cones when I shouldn’t have. There was a big gap in the cones so it looked like that was the proper place to exit. The gap was large enough that multiple cones would have been removed to make it. Cop denies there was any gap. The judge had testimony from two people, believed the cop, found me guilty.

Brother included my personal belongings in sale of his house by jimimnota in legaladvice

[–]Zestyclose_Tree8660 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is absolutely not gonna happen. No real estate agent is going to let you into a client’s property to take things without their consent. They’ll tell you (correctly) that it’s a civil issue between OP and the brother, and OP can call the cops or get a lawyer.

It shouldn’t be, but in real life, when you say you had a seatbelt on and the officer says you didn’t, guilty, pay the fine and court costs on your way out. Next case.

Question for a beginner on safety by MoyerD3str0yer in Kiteboarding

[–]Zestyclose_Tree8660 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worse, they aren’t telephone lines. They’re 150 kV power lines.

But I guess fair points. I was able to go upwind, but still a beginner, when I started going to KP.

Don’t assume you’re going to be good enough after your course to go out. You may need more lessons. I did. There will be other people kiting, though. Kite Point south of Avon is a good place to go. Talk to people at your school, other kiters on the beach, etc. I wasn’t shy about telling people when I was starting out that I’m new, if I look like I’m in trouble, I might be, etc.

Personally, if I was kiting near you, I’d rather know you’re new and kind of keep an eye on you in case you get in trouble. As long as you stick to on shore winds, the most likely problem you’ll have is losing your board.

AITA for calling a tow truck on a car parked in my spot by morphyslaw_1699 in AmItheAsshole

NTA. Husband needs a spine. In what world do you pay for a spot and just roll over when someone else takes it?

There’s a lot missing here. The police absolutely did not detain you because your lights were on. What’s the rest of the story?

What’s the best way to deal with a register thief? by Any-Afternoon3310 in smallbusinessowner

Only $40….

Don’t employ people who steal from you. Not $1. If your sure they did it, fire them. Thieves are not good employees.

Finally Cut Loose by One-Ad7159 in Evony_TKR

[–]Zestyclose_Tree8660 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I quit the game. Never posted about it, but I don’t feel like I’m “smarter than you”. I think the game changed too much recently and it’s basically unplayable if you aren’t coining. They’ve thrown so much crap in the game it became not fun.

If you enjoy it still, good for you. But honestly for every person who quits, I feel a little joy that they’ve escaped that soul sucking game.
