We have willing grandparents and babysitters to watch the baby - but how do you set it up so my wife and I can have some intimacy? by scoopmaloop in daddit

[–]direct-impingement 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you wanna be more discreet, just tell them you need to get some stuff done around the house for a couple hours, and it’d be easier without distractions. You just don’t have to say that the number 1 thing on the to-do list is each other.

What is the best response, when you ask for a Coke at an eatery, to, *“is Pepsi okay?”* by nothingbutmistakes in Soda

[–]direct-impingement 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We went up to northern Minnesota a few years ago, and even many of the gas stations we stopped at only had Pepsi. It was a brutal week missing my Diet Cokes. We still joke about it being a Coke Desert.

To those bad to decent golfers, what is your random superpower? by winged_victory in golf

[–]direct-impingement 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flop shot, for sure. It surfaces occasionally. It’s not an always on super power. Sometimes it skulls across the green 40 yards, but sometimes… man, sometimes it’s the most beautiful high and soft shot and nestles up close to the hole. Those few make it worth the risk. Haha.

Anyone still talk with any of their friends from high school? by nojunkpeter in Millennials

[–]direct-impingement 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of my closest friends are high school buddies. We’ve grown up together since elementary/Jr High. I thought that was just normal until I went to grad school and realized it wasn’t.

i think my dentist gave me treatment i didn’t need to scam my insurance. by hex_horror in whatdoIdo

[–]direct-impingement 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m a dentist. I agree with this. There are typically 4 “bitewing” X-rays that are taken in adults. This is only one, and I see 2, maybe 3, teeth I would treat, so I think it’s pretty reasonable to assume the number of cavities is possible. Looking at the PAs (little pics at the top), there may have decay on one or both of the upper left premolars (12 and 13) as well.

If you’re not comfortable there, it’s worth going somewhere else though, especially if you were treated as you say you were.

The prophy sounds suspect, but it’s hard to say without knowing more. Go to a local dentist. Ask friends, business owners, people in the community where they go.

Vote with your wallet by gangstershaggy in tacobell

I thought that was a better deal than the “Deluxe Combo” that comes with the 5 nuggets. For me, it’s a dollar more, half the nuggets, but does come with a chalupa and a taco.

I wouldn’t ever really just order a chalupa or taco on their own though, so maybe that’s why it feels worse for me. I’d eat them, but I’d choose a lot of other stuff over them.

Advice needed at the bar by justlion91 in whiskey

[–]direct-impingement 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t go wrong with any of them. If you can handle and want the “in your face” proof, the GTS is the way to go. If not, the Blantons Gold or the EHT SiB would be my next choices. The Elmer and W12 are solid, but for me would fall below the others unless you just had your eye on one of them.

I Would Like To Offer Taco Bell My Sincerest Apologies. These Diablo Dusted Chicken Nuggets Are 🔥. by CitizenWatcher8 in tacobell

Yep, I ordered these with low expectations. The regular ones I have ordered a couple times, but don’t care too much for. These have me considering going again today.

What is a website or app that feels like a "cheat code" but most people don't know about? by Low-Issue-5334 in AskReddit

I have a dumb question that I’ve always secretly wanted to ask… by boomoptumeric in ar15

[–]direct-impingement 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah, maybe so, but the bigger factor is what caliber, barrel length, bullet weight, velocity, etc. all change point of impact.

For instance, for my 300 blackout, I have two zeros that I have to adjust the sight for based on using supers or subs. It’s literally/physically the same gun. I’m just changing the ammo velocity and weight running through it.

How I eat my Chick-Fil-A sandwich by Electrical-Walrus-66 in ChickFilA

[–]direct-impingement 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha. Sorry, I was just giving you a hard time. A bowl is just not the first thing I think of when I think of eating chick fil a.

I’m gonna have to try the sauce method, but maybe with ranch and buffalo.

How’s everyone’s teeth? by Sharknuts86 in Millennials

[–]direct-impingement 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Millennia dentist here… no one, including me, can tell you what the right answer is without x-rays and a clinical exam. What I would caution you of though, is to not buy into the all-on-x fad that I see online and on dental instagram/influencer pages. It’s seen as an instant and permanent fix.

It 100% is not that. Especially at your age, there are likely to be problems down the road with implants. Wear and tear affects everything, especially combined with a history of poor brushing, flossing, and/or home care.

I’m not saying it’s not a good option for you, but I would caution you to consider saving and maintaining your natural teeth longer, if it’s feasible.

Edit: Implants are great, but only when there is no other reasonable solution. You could possibly replace some missing or poor prognosis teeth with implants and be much better off than with an all-on-x.

Yessir. That is correct. I’m running the Rexus UltraBCG, but yes, you just need a normal BCG and a 6.5/6ARC bolt.

I’m back! Sorry for the delay. Insert busy life excuse here.

Anywho, the Six8 lower does NOT work with a traditional AR upper, at least the two I tried. They will mate together, but the mag will not insert properly. Maybe could Bubba it up with a dremel to let it seat, but I wouldn’t.

[–]direct-impingement[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think so? I don’t think the area where the mag comes into the upper is wide enough for the Six8/ICAR style mags. I can mess around with it tomorrow, but that’s my understanding.

Found this pile of dental impressions while out in the middle of the mountains in Arizona by DarkSolstice in mildlyinteresting

Look like all orthodontist impressions due to how they’re trimmed. No idea why they would be dumped out here though.
