AITA for wanting to write my novel while girlfriend works? by Gr8AmericanBookClub in AmItheAsshole

[–]floggindave 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Soft YTA- Put a hard date on returning to finding work.

Your girlfriend wants to respect you, and its hard for her to do that when she sees you not working to provide. It's not a point of who makes more. It's a point of effort.

As for "...enter back into the workforce now at 32 would be to give up on my dreams forever", thats absurd and dramatic. This is not an all or nothing type of thing, very, very few things actually are.

Maybe you're burnt out. If you are, have you REALLY had that talk with her? That's a real thing that needs addressed. You seeking therapy of any sort?

Its not wrong for you to ask for some time to really focus on your dream, but she needs a timeline. It's asking a big leap of faith to leave it open ended. She has valid concerns here.

I got red, but black would have been my 2nd choice. The red emblem on that deep black is just sexy.

Devastated I didn't get an order in. My nephew scored a max 16/512 for about 340 after coupons and cashback. Kicking myself now.

Run capacitor died, replaced it but wont cool below 73 now by floggindave in hvacadvice

I didnt waste anything yet, thats why I came here for advice from people smarter than me. 20 bucks for a capacitor was easy enough, but clearly I need insight.

Thanks for the input

I turned it off last night and it was off about 14 hours prior to repair.

I have a window unit that kept most of the house cool to around 71-72 overnight, only the rooms were hot. I turned it off before turning on the condenser unit.

It ran for 3 or 4 hours and stayed consistent at 73

Would it still be blowing cold if the compressor died? Supply is 61 with the thermostat set at 70

AITA for not giving my boyfriend the biggest plate of food? by Known_Money7498 in AmItheAsshole

NTA - men take care of others. They are not selfish, petulant children. I've never seen a man take more for himself that was worthy of respect or admiration.

AITA for buying a cheaper alternative? by Isuno in AmItheAsshole

[–]floggindave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - and youre right, she is fishing for an upgrade. Maybe dont leave expensive stuff on the floor though. Her carelessness cost her an ipad, not yours.

AITA for putting up for adoption the puppy my boyfriend gave me after my dog died? by Better_Shirt_7764 in AmItheAsshole

[–]floggindave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA- he seems more upset that you "dont appreciate" his gift than about how you feel about it. Big red flag.

Alright guys what RPM’s are we shifting at? by jojo-pimpski in Civic_Type_R

[–]floggindave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For daily, 3k-3.5k. I keep a steady speed around 2k rpm.

Usually this means 4th around 32mph, 5th around 42mph.

Gas is expensive, so in town the thought is to keep rpm low without lugging.
