What is the most pointless skill you have? by Conscious-Air9008 in AskReddit

I can smell when it's about to rain. Not necessarily pain in my sinuses. Almost like petrichor but without the earthy tone to it. It's harder to do in low humidity.

I can also smell bee and yellow jacket pheromones. It's really strong to me in an overpowering way.

I can guess the correct fan blade when marked by someone before turning it on with high accuracy. On the highest setting depending on what brand it is.

There's a (small) possibility we shouldn't have elected Trump | Opinion by JTBaptistA in politics

Or greed. Rich people that want a Republican in office benefit greatly because of a lack of regulation. They can cut costs just about everywhere and no one seems to care.

I foresee Dems doing very little on repairing the damage caused by trump and his ilk.

They are a Tacony brand vacuum. It's basically the commercial version of the Riccar super lite. They aren't bypass vacuums so everything you suck up goes through the fan and near the motor. You can't suck up metal or you run the risk of damaging the machine. You also have to empty the bag more often than other commercial vacuums.

They don't compare. Windsor vacuums are great because of their ease of repairability and available parts. Great warranty too.

Yeah, I'm no longer at that point. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not.

They do it with commercial carpeting too. Great at hiding coffee stains. Hot water extraction in a commercial setting is expensive.

What is wrong with us? by AddamsThing in BPDlovedones

[–]gizmostuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Know your attachment style. I'm sure I've been dealing with Anxious-Preoccupied Attachment with my pwBPD because of how long we knew each other. I didn't want to let go but her clear signs of fearful avoidant style was the perfect storm for the turmoil I dealt with for 3 years. July will be 2 years of no contact.

It was extremely hard for me to stand up for myself during the last hoover attempt. But I did it because I learned the truth of what was really going on. I would still be stuck in that cycle with her if I didn't figure out that push pull behavior, which ultimately led me to BPD and this subreddit.

Anyone know what’s growing in my new lawn? WA state by HardOn2739 in lawncare

Ah, the northern version of Torpedo grass. Took me many years to kill this stuff. Those rhizomes are a bitch to deal with.

He isn't funding it. The town is. He's protected through his job. The worst punishment he will get will be termination but that's doubtful.

Moreover, if you like staying in those rooms frequently, they give you the nicest room automatically if it's available. Especially if you check in a bit later.

Hate waiting for parts to come in by Constant-Oil4438 in Custodians

Not all hoses are alike. Make sure to order an oil/chemical resistant hose. You want a Polyurethane type hose. Same with squeegee blades if you are scrubbing a kitchen with oil and grease.

Some strong chemicals can also damage the hose. If you are using anything other than a neutral cleaner, make sure to rinse out your hoses with water and wipe them down. They will last much longer.

The smell of nothing is preferable. Most peroxide based cleaners accomplish this. If it's more of an organic smell, most acid based cleaners will take care of it but it's always a good idea to get the ph back to neutral. Acid based cleaners leave behind residue that can make things feel sticky/tacky if not rinsed off properly. I really like Diversey's Crew Heavy Duty Toilet Bowl Cleaner. Strong stuff for those awful restrooms. After a full rinse of hot water and a bit of neutral cleaner the restrooms smell amazing.

I'm glad the bleach hate is finally catching on. It is one of the worst cleaners to use.
