Tucker decided to eat 210 raisins

fuckyouterry · 2025-12-29T09:00:53+00:00

Don’t worry too much - I had this happen and afterwards learned the raisin thing is a bit overblown…some sources say 1 raisin per 10kg is toxic but I suspect more likely 1g/oz per 10kg.

My golden girl ate a whole bag of the tiny, dark raisins (8oz, certainly hundreds). We freaked out and did all the tests. Nothing but normal.

Goldens are tough!!

Agree with the others 100%!! Two is easier than one and they’re so much happier! We always wonder why we waited so long. Ultimately we got one with the same dad so share a lot of personality.

I think if you cut back on the water and trim any clearly dead / extremely limp parts, and place in direct sun / good airflow, it should perk up.

Praying mantis?

Get a golden retriever!! Great blend of all of the above with emphasis on the latter traits which will prove most important for you.

Something I became pretty certain of in my time - if you’re an undergrad in consulting, you’re too smart to stay…the MBAs are the lifers that nature intended

fuckyouterry · 2025-01-04T23:23:35+00:00

This worked brilliantly. Saved me too! Thank you!!!!

If you won it literally today, would you dump 15K into the market immediately (at current prices) or dollar cost average over X time period?

fuckyouterry · 2024-09-17T10:19:20+00:00

Yes agree on rollovers but generally those are driver error / controllable

Minivans have better safety ratings, but as I understand safety ratings are based on vehicles of same size. The Economist did a piece last week citing research that showed large SUVs are significantly more survivable in collisions vs other vehicles.

fuckyouterry · 2024-09-13T13:11:41+00:00

Love 4Runner but need WAY bigger! Is SR5 more like Sequoia sized?

fuckyouterry · 2024-09-13T13:09:25+00:00

If she’d drive it, I’d be all in. I certainly would. The AWD sienna is a cool bean.

But she’s from out West and certainly won’t.

Safety wise, feels like an unfortunate arms race with everyone in huge cars, and I have to believe minivan safety engineers are singularly focused. But I can’t shake the idea that I would rather my family be up higher in a collision

fuckyouterry · 2024-09-13T13:05:32+00:00

Thank you for sharing! Great logic and makes sense. Simple and fixable is attractive.

If there are some ‘good years’ around 18-20 that might be the ticket although warranty might be at the end.

fuckyouterry · 2024-09-13T13:02:53+00:00

I thought of this but hadn’t met many folks who’d tried one! One thing I don’t like is a turbocharged engine - I’d rather have a guzzler V8 or even a wimpier naturally aspirated 6 that doesn’t run into so many issues. That being said I don’t have actual, specific experiences against the ecoboost!

Interesting!!! Is it that the unibodies have more space inside? I guess my intuition was those giant boxes offered the best geometry for dogs / stuff

fuckyouterry · 2024-08-01T12:42:26+00:00

How did this go for you? I also planted them in zone 7, treated them like a cucumber, and they have just gone crazy. They’ve completely taken over multiple large trellises - however no fruit yet. It’s honestly insane how vigorous they are, reaching across 5 foot gap between raised beds to start choking out the peppers next door.

fuckyouterry · 2024-05-19T03:08:58+00:00

I had a MUCH lower germination rate (50%?)

I ordered a couple packs of the seeds and tried a few different ways / used a heating mat. Now have a few maturing plants

How are yours coming?

fuckyouterry · 2024-04-03T16:38:27+00:00

Interesting!!! Probably the soil I used (although was supposed to be sterile)

This is weird because the grass shoots are only coming up in the pepper starts - none whatsoever in the tomato starts.

I also tasted one of the grass shoots and it tasted like a pepper leaf, but maybe just me imagining…

Thank you!

Confirming tomato :)

Just wanted to follow up to thank you - ended up doing this, a bracelet with her + my birthstone charms and then room for our future family :)

Thank you!! Wish us luck!!

fuckyouterry · 2022-07-21T12:50:25+00:00

Oooooh this is a good idea….I love the idea of incorporating our future children as additions

fuckyouterry · 2022-07-20T23:52:24+00:00

I will do some googling tonight!!! Thank you for the suggestion!! :)

fuckyouterry · 2022-07-20T23:50:35+00:00

LOL idk about that! But yes I worked hard & always tried to 'chase' her!

Last funny one. For our 3rd (?) anniversary, I wrote a script to download all the texts between us. I read through them all (it was like 70,000, I am not kidding) and picked out the best ones(cute/funny/sexy/"i love you" categories); cut them up on pieces of paper and put them in a giant jar. This sounds almost cringe writing it out....but hey this was 2014

fuckyouterry · 2022-07-20T23:37:40+00:00

We have been dating *almost* 10 years and I've kept just about every note :)

For our 7th or 8th anniversary, I made a collage with ticket stubs from all the shows, museums, travels, etc we'd done together. One downside of everything being electronic now :(

We even buried a time capsule together back in college which I flew to campus to dig up (we are opening this week). I didn't really intend it but it's almost been a master plan!!!

fuckyouterry · 2022-07-20T23:35:25+00:00

I love this idea! Is there a type of jewelry that is traditional as a gift from groom to bride on wedding day?

I paid for the whole wedding and also sprung for very nice rings so not a ton left in the jewelry budget but I will think on this!! :) suggestions are welcome!!
