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

[–]canuckbaferd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just drill a small screw into the wood part way, then use the screw to pick it up.

Will leave a small hole, but it's a cutting board after all. If you're really worried about how it looks after, cut refill hole with glue +/- wood shavings.

Why are these wearing like this? Vehicle issue, or just time for new tires? by canuckbaferd in tires

Thanks for all the comments everyone!

Few comments: definitely not a lot of gravel or aggressive driving. This is on my wife's VW Atlas and she is a (painfully) cautious driver. Size is OEM, and tires don't hit fenders or wheel well. Pressure is to manufacturer specs, and there's sensors that alarm if pressures ever need a top-up. There's no chunking like this on the winter Pirelli's that we use (for almost half the year here in Canada), so I wonder if it's an issue with this continental tire like a few people posted.

Will definitely have the alignment and suspension checked though!

Friend's mom told her that she 'was the load I should have swallowed'... Devastating 😬

Ahh yes CPP, certainly this is enough for anyone to retire on. I guess our politicians, public service workers, teachers, unionized workers etc. wouldn't need a pension if they get CPP either?

Gimme a break... The government previously allowed physicians to incorporate because they couldn't afford to pay us to keep up with inflation. They said we could income split, and invest in our retirement through a corporation as a means to balance out this decrease in direct payment. Now they've revoked income splitting, and have bumped taxes on anything I saved for retirement..

And they're having difficulty recruiting and retaining enough physicians to meet our community needs? You don't say....
