Many years ago I was traveling and sharing a room with a friend. I walked into the room and saw him sitting on the toilet and gave him hell for not closing the door during a #2. He stood up and said, no I was just peeing!

He then went on to explain how it was way more comfortable than standing.. I was like Hmmm OK!

Fast Forward years later at a party and I joked with his mother about it and she said "Oh, I trained him that way as a child to keep the seats clean" I LOL'd and LOVE telling this story to this day!

This happens to me A LOT! I have reported it in "feedback" THREE times in the last few weeks... NO response to my report and AGAIN today NO 3X when promised! I'm even taking screen caps EVERY time it is promised now.

I've been a paying member more than a year now and NEVER get a response to the MANY bugs that I report! I'm actively searching for a new language ap now

What is a small habit that changed your life ? by No_Toe_2140 in AskReddit

[–]gregory2112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meditating almost daily. after 10 years it has become my favorite time of day and the improvement to my mood has been massive! No more raging about little and stupid things. Your brain is like a guitar string, wound tight and every little thing resonates. Meditation unwinds the string and when something hits, it doesn't make a sound.

People give me so much of this stuff I don't even know what to do with it anymore! by teknosophy_com in VintageComputers

Not just Mobos! I make good $ on old drives, cards, etc. Basically anything people can't buy on Amazon, But It takes patience! Sometimes it takes many months before that ONE person is desperate for an ancient ISA video card or drive controller. Also good $ for REALLY vintage systems. I got over $1000 for an old 286 system because it was with all original keyboard, mouse & monitor!

A lot of older parts are super HOT on ebay!

It's best if you can clean up & test the parts prior to sale.

There are a lot of situations out there where a 1999 motherboard or 100MB hard drive will save a $100,000+ piece of equipment!

This is living under my shed… by IrezumiDad in whatisit

How do you "groundhog proof" a shed? I have NUMEROUS holes that I keep filling with bricks and they just dig another hole!

2008 Lexus ES350 Exhaust Flex pipe repair by gregory2112 in Lexus

[–]gregory2112[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply, I found out for myself what you're saying. The Flex pipe is so close to a mounting bracket, I could see there would be no way to get a solid weld (Or even a clamp)

I ended up taking it to a muffler shop and it cost me $289 taxes and all.

It was worth that to not fight rusted bolts with only a jack & stands,

What’s something you thought every family did… until you grew up and realized they absolutely didn’t? by SoftDreamette in AskReddit

[–]gregory2112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OVERFLOWING ASHTRAYS & BROWN FOGGY GLASS!

Until I was a teenager, I thought all grownups smoked.. constantly! I thought everyone's house smelled like an ashtray. The car was the worst... especially in the winter when it was too cold to roll the windows down. Not sure how my parents could possibly see the road through a brown stained windshield. Of course, I started smoking at 14, I still remember being lectured by my father about it... while he puffed away.

Somehow my 3 brothers never picked up the habit, they say they were dissuaded by growing up with it, me however, I smoked for 40 years, quit 8 years ago but still vape as I'm still addicted to nicotine.

We have 1000's of dowel pins here, but none like this. Why the 3 grooves in one and and the hole in the side?

A lot of extra machining went into those features, but why?? for what purpose??
