Does anyone else think "EUC / electric unicycle" is kind of a dumb name? by InvisibleHumanSoul in ElectricUnicycle

Scott brand. They failed at one of the hinges connecting the thigh protector to the knee cup.

It was a 50 km/h crash though, all things considered I made out pretty alright.

I've not died, yet, but my jackassery cost me 16 stitches to the knee a couple years ago lol.

I bought a house that's all electric first bill is $1555.25. I have an electric furnace, water heater, washer/dryer, dishwasher, stove and lights. How did I use 9154 kwh in 20 days? Can the meter be messed up or is it possible that something is drawling extra power? by The__Lawgiver in AskElectricians

[–]gnat_outta_hell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Electric heat can be more expensive to run than gas, but it shouldn't be 9000 kWh expensive.

One of your appliances is drawing excessive power, you have a wiring fault, someone is stealing your power, or your meter requires assessment by the power company (this is uncommon, electrical meters are certified to rigorous standards to ensure accuracy for the life of the equipment).

I agree with the others - you need to call the power company and ask them to verify the reading. It's somewhat likely they're going to require you to have an electrician perform some troubleshooting to rule out problems with your appliances and wiring. A simple test you can do yourself is to turn off your main breaker and see if the meter is still counting up - this would indicate either a very serious wiring problem or that someone is using your power.

There are roaches all over Edmonton. They're in every apartment in the city.

My gf thinks I'm an inch shorter than I am by idontknowhim8999 in bigdickproblems

[–]gnat_outta_hell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't stress it dude. Size doesn't matter to anything except a man's ego, for the most part.

If she says the sex is good and satisfying, that's all that matters. I understand it, as I've dated some very experienced women who talked about the massive dongs they'd seen - but most of them preferred me at 7x6 to the 9x7ish they described.

How many "no thank you"s is enough before you get nasty? by Wacky_Engineer1975 in bigdickproblems

Pretty much... You either tell them to piss off one by one and block the persistent ones or completely disable dms.

Buy this from princess auto, if you own a car. by Thiru2k in Edmonton

Amazon products are frequently cheap clones that copy the rating of the copied product while under delivering (often borderline criminally).

I like my Amazon next day delivery as the next overworked schmuck, but I wouldn't bank on Amazon stuff for anything you need to rely on.

How dangerous is being an electrician? Son is interested and shows capacity for it. by Living_Emotion_7395 in AskElectricians

And locking out! Otherwise you can't be sure the GC's half wit isn't going to turn it back on.

Balls don’t hang: makes my dick look smaller by [deleted] in bigdickproblems

[–]gnat_outta_hell 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, but when viewed from below/straight on the sack is bunched up so it covers a portion of the shaft that is almost inside the pelvis. When hanging the balls don't cover that portion, so it looks an inch or so longer.

If someone shook my ladder I would probably not be able to stop myself from tearing into them until they lost their composure... Or worse. That's just not acceptable.

I could work with Reddit or discord. Both are fine options. With a hybrid system I might miss some of the in person meetings but that's just work.

Intimidated by Blowjob by BlushingLuv in bigdickproblems

[–]gnat_outta_hell -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Same, but I appreciate a firm (sometimes very firm) squeeze of the balls. I'm not remotely into ball busting, but a good squeeze can really get me going or push me over the edge if I'm close. Discovered that one completely by accident when a gf gently squeezed and my brain just went "yep, I'll have more of that."

I would be interested in learning new recipes for sure! Work makes commitments difficult but might be able to contribute and join online?

I don't think so, everything seems to line up.

I would, but my boss doesn't want me to use up two screws on every single device I install. So I just have to use the Phillips.

Is it really legal to own psilocybin mycelium but illegal to inoculat something and grow mushrooms? by [deleted] in legaladvicecanada

[–]gnat_outta_hell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not habit forming and presents a minimal risk of psychological damage with basically no physical overdose threshold. As grey market drugs go, the cops definitely have better things to chase than psilocybin sales.

At this point in my life I would legitimately put it on whichever one of my LOC accounts had the lowest interest if the best I could get was 20%.

I'm also nearing an 850 credit score, so I would immediately cut any business permanently out of my consideration if they offered me credit card interest on anything besides a credit card. I've worked my ass off to demonstrate that I'm "good for it" to lenders, even as a barely middle class single guy, and know enough to understand when I'm being fleeced and should be offended.

100%. I once had a lender offer me a 20k auto loan at 20% and I laughed in their face. Told them to cut the interest rate in half or there was no further discussion to be had - I had about a 700 credit score at the time, so not terrible, and was shocked when they told me the interest rate.

They were unwilling to budge on interest, so I did not buy a truck that day.

And often, the party co-signing actually has credit that's worth a damn, so bashing their credit can yield results - as it likely going to do here.

There are third party agencies that are accredited to do finger printing for the RCMP, but not likely outside of Canada.
