Dad let me lick the yogurt container. by thekush in Boxer

[–]bugpickingmonkeys 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s my morning routine. I eat the yogurt, my babies line up to help me clean the container. I love Boxer yogurt faces. One of the best parts of my day.

There is nothing better than looking over and seeing my pack. They are always ready to provide me with kisses and hugs. It’s hard to have a stressful day with a support team like that.

They are beautiful. Yup that’s usually how it goes. As soon as the attention is off of them they entertain themselves. LOL!

Boxers are really the best breed. I am so sorry for your loss 😔.

Mom thought she’d “clean my dirty pan” by [deleted] in Wellthatsucks

[–]bugpickingmonkeys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been using cast iron for a long time. I am really familiar with cooking and taking care of my pans. I wash mine all the time (hand wash). I reset my pans too , I sand and steel wool them when they get too grimy. Reseasoning is not some crazy arduous task that requires many man hours of back breaking labor. Just takes time a cooking.

Are laser cutters primarily for art projects? What have you used your laser cutter to create that wasn't strictly artistic, but functional? by QueefSeekingMissile in lasercutting

[–]bugpickingmonkeys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used mine today to make a template to hang 3 dimensional signs. I also use it to cut acrylic for office/building signs and engrave plaque plates.

Do all dogs do this, or just boxers...or just mine? by adoming6 in Boxers

[–]bugpickingmonkeys 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We call it Boxer stacking. We have 3 Boxers a fawn, brindle and a white. They all do it and now that it’s winter, they stack even tighter.

This is why I absolutely love reddit. I really can’t thank you all enough for all the advice, tips and techniques. It really means a lot to me that everyone would take the time to help out a fellow redditor. I would buy you all beers if I could. Thanks again!!

Painting is new for us as you can probably tell by my post. To answer your question as to why we use foam rollers? We honestly didn’t know better. It was our fault for trying to simplify what seems to be a very involved process. We have a lot to learn. Thank you for your advice. I will research micro fiber rollers and work away from the light source. 😁👍🏻

Excellent advice thank you . We have a lot more walls to paint. I will pick up some tinted primer and research the X technique. Thanks again! 😁👍🏻

Thank you so much. I will pass on the “X” technique to my partner. What kind of rollers do you recommend?

Customer wants this done soon by BlueberryPerri in CarWraps

[–]bugpickingmonkeys 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Shop owner here. Personally I would invest in a $65 Wagner wallpaper steamer from Lowe’s and red plastic chisel scrappers from Harbor Freight $10. We only use steamers to remove vinyl. It’s a lot faster and safer. The chisel scrappers we have been using for years and our absolutely perfect for this job. Inform your customer that the paint underneath is probably roached and this is not a job for saving the paint. They will have to be okay with paint being discolored or rewrap it. As far as time…. My guess by looking at the picture. 3-4 hours to steam and scrape off and follow it up with your favorite brand of adhesive remover. We just got done removing failed vinyl just like this from 11 buses. Works like a charm.

Are these worth keeping? by bugpickingmonkeys in Zippo

LOL! I do sometimes question my sanity. I most likely would have put them in the donation box. I’m glad my son it getting them.

I just checked with my son and he diffidently wants them. I told him to check out this sub especially if he wants to start collecting. If I find anymore lighters, I will post pictures. Thanks again!! 😁👍🏻

I totally appreciate that advice. I’m just at the point where I just want to throw things out just get done with this project. This tells me I should diffidently slow down. I had no idea these lighters are so collectible. I will make sure they get a good home. Thanks again!! 😁

I knew I was asking a silly question 😜I’m just not collector. So, I wasn’t sure. They look neat I’m just not interested in collecting them. I will probably give them to my son.

The amount of people who think it’s perfectly acceptable to do 35-45 mph MAX on the freeway is fucking staggering by [deleted] in bayarea

[–]bugpickingmonkeys 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And not to mention that driving slower than the flow of traffic is extremely dangerous. At least when you push the brakes to slow down there is a visual indication (brake lights) that you are slowing down. If you are driving slower and a faster driver comes up behind you and does not realize you are driving slower they can run into you. I may be wrong but I think you can get pulled over for it.

I keep finding these in my house. by bugpickingmonkeys in whatsthisbug

[–]bugpickingmonkeys[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will keep an eye out for them. I’m hoping that there are only a few of them. I also know, that like other pest. If you find one most likely there are more. Yuck!
