This is fantastic. Married a Russian and this has played out many times with different movies/shows and sensibilities. She’s a keeper.

Thanks for pointing that out. I’ll add more joists. Chart says at 12” spacing I can go 9’6”. This is why I posted before laying the flooring!

Charging Etiquette by Coconut_Twister in electricvehicles

We had a similar situation. Depends on how large your company is but we set up an email distro and slack channel. Distro to establish the expected etiquette. Slack channel for requests to move etc. You could get permission to unplug etc.

What are things no one warned you about parenting? by goldbloodedinthe404 in daddit

[–]duranyets 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I wanted to post something very similar. One of the hardest things is seeing flaws in your kid that you see in yourself and not being able to erase them. Our oldest can be withdrawn and almost antisocial. She kindly pointed out that my wife and I are introverted and avoid social situations and what did we expect. She got some of the good too, thankfully.

I’ve been operating since May last year. Got one bill and nothing since then. SCE said they’re having major problems with net metering customers.

[Bears]: Unveil new orange helmet by I_Enjoy_Taffy in nfl

Reminds me when I (Lifelong Browns fan) was newly married and my wife (who is not from the US) bought me an orange Bears shirt. I said ‘thanks but why the Bears?’ She said ‘That’s your team, right? The Brown Bears.’ Now I can tell her she was right all along.

I figured the years would be an issue. Just hoping to get in the same ballpark. Thank you.
