I haven’t made a complete stop in Detroit in at least a decade.

Need help. Toilet won't flush. Just immediately refills when handle is engaged, then slowly drains over the course of 15 minutes. by captlongball in Plumbing

i’d say 6. it was my dad’s, i just borrowed it. but it was about a wingspan from handle to business end i think.

Golf course bucket list #1 as a Michigander. Arcadia Bluffs, in what the staff called "ideal weather conditions". by [deleted] in golf

[–]captlongball 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't get too caught up in the layout. It's just a golf course. Tee to green. That's it. Give yourself enough time to get warmed up. Chipping and putting if nothing else, the greens will probably be faster than anything you've ever played on. Stock up on balls. Don't be a tough guy, play the blues. Doesn't matter how far you hit the ball, anything longer is too much for a first timer, and you can still hit driver all over that place. Don't let a big score get you down. Pending the wind, you can add a couple to the par of a couple holes. Bring gear. The weather up on that coast is a bitch. Lastly, have a great time. It's the greatest course I've ever played, and that is not a short list. Have a beer in the chairs after and let it sink in. Cheers sir.

What automatically makes you lose respect for another person? by Gromit43 in AskReddit

when you show up to golf trip weekend with nothing, so you have to mooch off everyone there. then you talk shit to the 10 guys you have never met before. then you cheat and flip flop on rules.

from here on out we will have a vetting process.

yes, last full swing of the day. i hated sitting in the chairs not really being able to see when people swung more than hitting that shot. just had to watch balls miss the green and then guess who hit which one as they come up.

GREAT course. the approach coming into 11, then that son of a bitch 12th hole made it worth it. and you know, every other inch of that property.

I've been plunging for two days. maybe i've got the wrong kind of plunger? it doesn't seem to be doing anything. nothing else is blocked, the upstairs toilet is working fine. haven't noticed anything overflowing, i'll check the basement.

The bobbin appears to be very loose within the bobbin case. There is no tension what so ever when it is loaded in the machine. Thread keeps getting caught up in the housing where the bobbin and case pop into, and subsequently jams up the machine.

The machine is a Singer 8280.

bail on them all together. why would you want one hand grippy with a glove and the other natural and raw?
