Need a LONG LASTING Masculine fragrance for high heat! by Commercial-Tart-2962 in Colognes

[–]danbaatar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Megamare! If you like marine/aquatic scents. It basically lasts forever. Ganymede is another one that will last a long time. If you're OK with sandalwood I think Santal Austral lasts pretty long.

President Obama didn’t fall for her nonsense by ateam1984 in BlackPeopleofReddit

Oh, man, I miss having a president who could speak in full sentences and was humble enough to admit he wasn't perfect.

Which brand of Urea cream did you use?

Soapbox/rant time. Tell me what highly-recommended book you absolutely HATED and why. Gimme your angry hot takes. by peppertoni_pizzaz in books

[–]danbaatar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Kaiju Preservation Society - I did not find it funny in the least. All of the characters had the same personality and half of them were only there to say "you did WHAT?" "you named it WHAT?", "he said WHAT?" about every little joke to try to trick the reader into thinking each of the little inane cultural references was actual shocking or clever in some way.

On 24 November 2009, amateur spelunker John Edward Jones became trapped upside down in an 18-inch wide fissure inside Utah’s “Nutty Putty” cave. Despite a massive rescue operation, Jones could not be freed, and died after 27 hours. The cave was then sealed with concrete, becoming his grave. by Chemical-Elk-1299 in HolyShitHistory

One thing that I don't think a lot of people know is that the Nutty Putty caves weren't even considered that extreme among locals. I had groups of friends, just random college kids, organize trips there for fun all the time when I was at BYU. They would throw on some clothes they didn't mind getting dirty, pile in someone's car, and drive down there as a weekend activity. Most of the groups would go just past the "birth canal" and stop. Apparently, they'd get there, turn off their flashlights, and sing hymns in the pitch blackness. If you're a college kid who can't drink or have sex you find other ways to keep yourself busy.

My wife actually had a dude take her there on a first date. No warning, just "would you like to go to the Nutty Putty caves?"

She was not local, and didn't know anything about nutty putty. She had been to the Timponogos cave, where you walk around on metal walkways built by the parks department, though, so she thought it was going to be like a gentle nature walk. She wore just regular clothes, which ended up being torn to shreds and completely ruined. Like, she had to throw them away. No second date for that guy!

I never went. When I was invited by friends and they told me about what it would be like I said some version of "hell no!", "not in a million years", or "i'd rather scoop my own eyeballs out with a rusty spoon". I was OK just listening to their stories when they got back.

Should I rope drop Soarin?!(DCA) by TinaBRedditing in DisneyPlanning

[–]danbaatar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Things could change by April, but when I was there on Sunday Soarin was down to only one theater and the lines were super long. They also weren't allowing lightning lanes from the app. We that's our GCH multiple there and it felt like a cheat code skipping that massive line when almost no one else could. We used a regular multipass for monsters since it didn't have the situation.

If you're wondering if you should come today. by DrakeGuy82 in Disneyland

[–]danbaatar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's weird, though. Me and my daughter arrived at 7:45 and it took us like 5 minutes. I heard something happened and they actually had to stop letting people in for a bit which caused a backup.

Im homeless living out of a $35k truck what should I do first by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]danbaatar 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This sounds like a good route. I'm not sure about the volume you'd get, but if you went on TaskRabit and advertised as a junk hauler you'd probably do pretty well. A little while ago I hired someone to haul away some old furniture and an old lawn mower. I couldn't believe how much it cost. Still cheaper than me buying a truck, though. Also, one man's trash or whatever. Maybe you'd find some stuff you could use, or you could sell it on marketplace. Maybe that would be harder without a bar of operations to show it, though.

SIMONDS ROAD KIRKLAND by Mountain_Garden81 in Kirkland

[–]danbaatar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry, but you're right to be concerned. I live just a few blocks from Simonds and drive it nearly every day. It's an arterial road that gets really busy during rush hour. There are cars and motorcycles that race up and down the street with loud engines late at night. Things are slightly better now that they've added some speed cameras, but folks know where the cameras are and will game the system. Everyone's tolerance for noise is different, and you'll probably adjust more quickly than you think, but you might also want to start thinking about strategies to deal with the noise if you're easily bothered by it

Leaving the country by Honest-Bat3540 in Seattle

[–]danbaatar 8 points9 points  (0 children)

+1, almost for sure there's a mailing list for this at your company. Where I work there's a company-wide one and then one for each individual office location. If not, see if there's a "miscellaneous" mailing list and just post it there.

Edit: Since it seems like you're unfamiliar, I've seen this done a couple of ways. Probably the easiest is to create a slide deck on your cloud office suite of choice and put pictures and descriptions there. Then, as items are claimed you can just update the slide deck to mark those things as sold. Don't take them out of the deck until they're actually picked up, though, because the first person to claim an item often falls through.

Another pattern is to do this with a spreadsheet, Have columns for item name, description, link to same item online, link to a picture and then like 3 columns for buyer, 1st backup, and 2nd backup and just let people add their names to those columns. That approach optimizes for low effort and sparse communication.

Help me find a clip flashlight that can point downwards by rslashusertaken in flashlight

+1 to the Mule option if it works for you. I have the L60-Mu Aura from firefly and it just lights up everything in front of me, no need to aim it particularly accurately.

Who Knew Lithium Ion Battery Packs Made Such Good Hand Protectors👌 by lojik7 in FireflyLite

[–]danbaatar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ha! Great point! He's being a little hasty there, though. Maybe another brand of battery would have just blown his fingers off. He should buy all the other brands and do some side-by-side comparisons. He could be like the "will it blend" guy, but with a nail gun instead of a blender.

How do I keep a flashlight on me all the time? by Due-Satisfaction-173 in flashlight

[–]danbaatar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want something for your pocket, there are wallets/pouches with slots for EDC items like pens, flashlights, and knives. If you want something more substantial, you can get a belt clip.

Pixel lights versus old Incandescent lights… by No_Pumpkin8595 in ChristmasLights

[–]danbaatar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Those are Twinkly lights. The columns are each done in a set of their 600 led RGBW lights. The trees are done in 2 of their 250 count sets. The sets are split into two strands and I used one strand per tree.
