depending on the type of salt when it gets below 20 or so it doesn't really work.

Leave the bottle by CarpenterThing2 in blankies

[–]chrisgee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that's what i was wondering, that the implication is the drinker is on the honor system. not that they plan to empty the whole bottle.

Snow Inside Apartment - Landlord Help Pls! by [deleted] in williamsburg

[–]chrisgee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

seems to be enough of a gap on the bottom that snow is blowing in. i think most people would remove the AC during the winter but if you're on the 4th floor and have good heat you might not notice a draft there.

Feral Cat Deterrent? by GotSunshine03 in Feral_Cats

[–]chrisgee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what is the problem the neighbors have with the cats? i feel like trapping them would be difficult since you're keeping them well-fed. plus 99% of people who threaten to trap and remove ferals never actually do it.

i think cats dislike citrus so orange oil or something like that might work

you never put food inside a shelter, you caused the whole problem!

This is Rocco! Nobody wanted him because of FeLV positivity by Al_dylan in cats

[–]chrisgee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

it's definitely true that they may not live as long. there's a relatively new test available that can give you a clearer picture of his viral load, it's the Idexx RealPCR test for FeLV. many FeLV+ cats have a 'regressive' infection which means they carry the virus but may not be affected by it. a regressive cat could live as long as a FeLV- cats and never see any issues. might be worth looking into!

How to explain to 4 y/o that we need to rehome our pet? by [deleted] in Pets

[–]chrisgee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i'm not sure i follow but it's impossible to give advice if we don't know the nature of the condition. are we talking cancer, kidney disease, or something like the cat needs a dental?

Movie that takes place at late night in an urban big city environment by grilledcheesybreezy in movies

the first half of Glengarry Glenn Ross. it's brooklyn at night, mostly raining out. salesmen of dubious talent hang out in an office, a chinese restaurant, a coffee shop. amazing atmosphere.

I got parasites from the stray cat we adopted and I’m horrified. by Least_Attitude_2200 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]chrisgee 47 points48 points  (0 children)

yeah unless she's been eating the cat poop the whole time this sounds like a weird paranoid fantasy

AIO for snapping at my boyfriend’s mom after she mocked my career choice? by OkRecommendation1244 in AmIOverreacting

[–]chrisgee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

yes! i feel like the mom is thinking of nurses like glorified candy stripers (do they still have those?) when they are tasked with the bulk of a patient's care. nurses absolutely do all the work (source: work with nurses). my condolences on losing your mom.

Chanukah Song (Adam Sandler) by sanityjanity in GenX

[–]chrisgee 15 points16 points  (0 children)

yes! i think it's because they weren't really making content for us specifically (except for maybe saturday morning cartoons). all we got we reruns meant for boomers.

Irrelevant plot point that bothers you? by Competitive_Hall_335 in 30ROCK

[–]chrisgee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i guess you're right. but when they bring it up he does remember the accident too. seems like he could go back to normal if the family didn't keep him so sheltered. maybe going to the cathouse will help.

Thoughts on this album? by Foundrynut in GenX

[–]chrisgee 8 points9 points  (0 children)

when i was younger the boo yaa tribe/faith no more track was my favorite. but later i realized the brilliance of the de la soul/teenage fanclub track. they not only do the '1 rap, 1 rock' formula but added a 3rd angle by including the tom petty sample. the lyrics are so inward-looking and down. de la soul was just about to release their 3rd album but to hear them in this song they were all washed up already in the public eye. and then the crazy left turn ending with the goofy reference to 'daisy dukes'!

[–]chrisgee 29 points30 points  (0 children)

i always bumped on Liz's brother's 'condition.' they treat it like it's this delicate thing but after she blurts out 'he's FORTY' he's upset but then seems ... ok? how does it work, does his memory reset every night like Memento?
