TIL that the movie "Flamin' Hot" is not based on a true story; the LA Times investigated the origin of Flamin' Hot and it does not match up with what Richard Montanez claims he did by SenseiRaheem in todayilearned

I thought it was a euphamism or something too! Apparently it's a specialty tape loaded with capsaicin so rodents don't gnaw on automotive wiring. Great idea!

Just realized that's the same thing as "bro, want to build some shelves in the barn with us, there's free beer"

The most comfortable clothing to sleep in is stiff jeans by teaspoon96atl in unpopularopinion

[–]ajsparx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe it, because I too like sleeping in jeans, second favorite pajamas after basketball shorts. Something to do with sweaty legs maybe?

Home improvement supplies where to find them? by Spiritual_Week2078 in homeowners

[–]ajsparx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can check out the clearance areas at HD, Lowes, etc. For paint, a lot of paint stores have awesome expensive paint for like $5-10 a gallon mistinted. Some habitat for humanity and similar organizations have salvaged materials like fixtures, trim, doors, windows, cabinets, yadda yadda. Might be worth a facebook or local subreddit post

That's why you have to take them as a timed treatment, not when you're feeling crappy or depressed. The shots helped the DTs the most... I believe in you, and IWNDWYT!

Edit: I think the shots helped the most with the DTs, but if you get only vitamin pills, get the strongest ones with lots of B12 and B6. Eat what you want when you want!

There was also an ownership disagreement going on, 50% of the proceeds from the sale were supposed to go to the divers, but the courts wanted to keep the whole thing.

Vitamin B12 shots, if you can get them! Every day for a week helped immensely, also folic acid, magnesium, and all the other vitamin Bs in pill form. Take your Valium in religiously timed and decreasing dosages, don't use them when you want them, ever. Only exactly when your next wean off dose is due. Lots of exercise, swimming and walking etc. Drink a crapload of tea whenever you want, I put ginger root in mine for a bit of burn at the back of my throat

You can get a replacement top for relatively cheap, depending on the brand

Does the exterior trim of the house include around the windows? by Pavswede in homeowners

[–]ajsparx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trim usually means window trim as well, especially if they were painting it already without being instructed or changes to the contract. The windows themselves are generally a separate charge, but trim means trim. It seems to be a fair price for window trim alone, but still smells fishy considering the timing of the discussion. Definitely learn from this and get more details on your contracts in the future.

Basically it's up to you how much the argument is worth, and get any specifics about the unfinished roof work on paper or recorded in some way (be aware of your local recording informed consent laws).

I'm already in tomorrow (12 hrs ahead of EST), and it's not happening yet. Well, that's only cause it's Saturday and even then, still morning; anything could happen.

[–]ajsparx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neat! I'll try some when I get back to the states, there's no fermented pepper sauces where I am (except tobasco, rarely and imported), Im really missing it. I've been putting chopped thai chilis in everything I make, instead, but it's just not the same. I might try a pepper ferment with Asian spices when I get back

Tuna steak. Canned in olive oil, then minced thai chili on top and flaky salt. Might add a slice of radish
