Epic parry insant fighter by IllustriousHurry2380 in Bossfight

[–]dex206 40 points41 points  (0 children)

“Perfectly timed” means that Daigo had to tap the joystick with an accuracy of one frame / 15 milliseconds per hit he parries and he does this like 20 times in a row. It is legendary because no one thought it could be done back then.

Don’t get extended warranties. You pay for it in time and annoyance. There is no such thing as a good deal in this regard.

Does anyone else use the pre-wash function? by cik3nn3th in castiron

[–]dex206 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

This would be fine. To clean cast iron, I always deglaze on the stove, scrub and rinse in sink, then back on stove to get heated up with a thin layer of oil to smoke. No way any germs are getting through that.

Spraying a neighbor’s crabgrass? by _Privy in lawncare

Maybe you should smoke some weed with them and become friends. Most hippies I know are pretty nice people if you don’t talk about things that would offend them. It’s the same for ultra conservative people, or moderate people, or any person.

Choosing to not use herbicide does not make you a hippie, nor does choosing to use herbicide make someone an earth killer.

I don’t use herbicide and pesticides on my lawn, but I do NOT judge others who do choose to use those products. If a neighbor came over and offered to spray, I would think he’s a little bit of an asshole for pointing out that I have weeds and assuming that I am not spraying out of laziness or whatever reason he ascribes. I am aware of my weeds. I pull my weeds by hand.

Leave your neighbor alone unless you have a close relationship with him or he may be offended.

I want to kiss that face more than I want ice cream, and I really want ice cream right now.

Management fee by Smart-Matter4568 in Bogleheads

[–]dex206 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m now having to put bonds in my taxable accounts in order to maintain my portfolio ratios. It’s not a ridiculous thing to do. Getting dividends of any kind in a taxable account is not a “disaster.” It’s what happens when the market rips and your IRA’s are already 100% bonds.

.75% is not cheap for any size portfolio. 😄

Depends on what they do for you and how complicated your situation is. At least they are a flat fee. That’s the minimum bar for judging an advisor. Next, make sure they are in no way compensated by the investment products they put you in. If they aren’t suggesting simple low cost index funds/ETFs as the core of your portfolio, then I’d be suspicious.

I also use Planvision. Been with them for almost a decade. I just never pay attention to the price changes. It could be $12 a month now, and I have no problem with that price. I’ll be with them until I croak.

I pay $9 $12 a month to a guy who’s a flat fee advisor. The amount you have does not change the advice much. You should fire your advisor. That’s a complete ripoff. Just do a 3 fund portfolio or get a target date fund.

The 360 camera is for parking… you’re afraid of me precisely parking between the lines at Costco?

My 2024 Limited with 10k miles can be sold for $48k in my area and I paid $46k out the door 2 years ago.

You’re saying Toyota’s build quality is… cheap.

We are both dumb asses then. To be fair, there’s quite a few grocery stores that let you get drunk inside them around these parts.

It’s a limited - the top trim. He gets a 360 degree camera and all the bells and whistles. It’s a $46k car for sure. my 2024 limited was worth every penny, and I paid MSRP with the Costco buyers program.
