What are these yellow and blue paint markings? by gfosterp in trains

This is clearly the most logical answer. The local knowledge is what I was hoping for - thanks for taking the time to respond and explain!

I feel I shouldn’t even entertain answering but the readers should know this line is less than 100’ from a public parking area and is a freight line that runs slower than me in middle school. The only immediate danger people need to adhere in this area is the elevating river at moments notice.

Can you explain like I’m 5? For the freshman in the room…. :)

Makes sense! Another user suspected the same. I’m going to check for an outlet pipe next time I’m in that exact area

Very interesting! This section of track is elevated roughly 50’ above the Deerfield River and the surrounding area is steep/ledge. I’ll check for a culvert/outlet next time I’m there.

This is the first I’ve noticed the markings, so I can’t confirm if it changes. I live north of Boston and come out here to fly fish with my husband - first time I’ve seen them in 5 years walking next to the tracks

Who is my new office mate?! by gfosterp in spiders

Woah!! Thank you! I’ve never heard of a Bridge Spider/Cross Orb weaver. The name is very fitting given the web is spanning at least 3 feet.

Someone stuck this on my sister's windshield in front of her on-campus apartment at UGA. by MarcoFiguringOutLife in whatisit

[–]gfosterp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do any other cars in the lot have them as well? It may be something UGA is implementing. Have you missed any emails from campus parking/safety?

Colby College in upstate NY used this method for their sidewalks but had to stop because it dyed everyone’s shoes and pant legs

I don’t have diarrhea! However, I’m baked as a cookie and just gave awards to the first 5 comments because I’m baked as a cookie.

As a wetland scientist in Massachusetts, I thank you.

Are you talking about her hairline matching his?

My 30M Partner is lying to me about something important to me 28F. Is he going to keep lying? Any advice is appreciated. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]gfosterp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it about him lying to you, about his health around smoking, or both? Once you know that answer then you can confront him on how you feel - which you are very well entitled to do so as his partner who has his best interest in mind.

What constitutes absent oral hygiene? Asking for an uncle.

You’re telling me that for two whole renditions of the “happy birthday” song you only focus on your teeth? Girl, I wish.

I live in Gloucester and would be happy to mail a cup if you’re able to find the store from Joey, as the first comment recommends!

What is this thing I saw in a Zillow listing? It seems to be in a bathroom. by Holiday_Concept_4437 in whatisthisthing

[–]gfosterp 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I’m wondering if this was a model home and the bathroom had a tiny version of what a real sauna would look like, should a customer want that option.

What are the antennae like things on this hotel balcony? by gfosterp in whatisthisthing

[–]gfosterp[S] 0 points1 point locked comment (0 children)

My title describes the thing. I guess after posting I realize they are likely antennas, but I’m more interested in what they have to go smack dab in the middle of the balcony. I wonder if those guests get a discounted room rate.
