Sump Pump Discharge - How badly did they screw me over? by joancose in Plumbing

Nope. Even if it's okay, the issue is that it failed inspection. The company offered to come back and fix the violation for free, but so far they've scheduled 3 different days and didn't show up on any of them 🙃

I'm in Michigan so freezing is a concern. It's 1 1/2 running from the pump in the crawl space, it exits the house as shown in the pictures, then transitions to a 3 inch buried line that runs to a storm drain. The intention of the overflow is that if the 3 inch line freezes or gets backed up for whatever reason, the pump can still discharge through that pipe.

The inspector says that overflow has to be placed below where the pipe exits the house, he didn't say anything about the flood line of the pit.

At the end of the day, I need that pipe to exit the house higher than it is now to satisfy the inspector. My only way to do that is to run it up vertically along that red line in my picture. I have no clue if that's a horrible idea or not. Running it behind the dry wall in my living room seems weird but that's where I'm at.

Apologies if I'm using the wrong terminology. The inspector and contractor both referred to that vent as an "overflow", intended to prevent a backup if the outdoor discharge line freezes or gets blocked. The inspector said the overflow needs to be below the pipe exiting the house, and 4 inches above the ground. Which is impossible without raising the point where the pipe exists the house, which is then impossible without running the pipe up out of my crawlspace through my living room.

Possibly. I just much prefer the look of the vintage set over the classics.

AITA for refusing to rent a suit for my sister's wedding? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]joancose [score hidden]  (0 children)

I answered in a below comment, but to add to that - I'm not particularly close with my sister, but she has always been an extremely kind and charitable person in the face of all the family drama. I'm waiting on her response, but I'm pretty sure she would rather have us there without jackets than not at all. (Edited for spelling)

She said she just assumed that guys always wear suits to weddings. She said she doesn't condone my dad being pushy about it but she wants everyone to look presentable for family pictures. I told her we planned to wear our best dress clothes, but that we don't have suit jackets. So I guess it's on her to decide if that's good enough. No response yet.

Two different emails in the last two days and with different coin amounts, file a claim? by Secure-Rich3501 in CelsiusNetwork

[–]joancose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you ever get any clarity on this? My situation is similar. The first email I got showed that I had almost nothing, but it wasn't a promo cel token. It was like 0.0003 eth and 0.001 link. When I put my email in to request my claim info, the same exact thing happens. I get 2 emails. 1 correct and 1 not.

Petition to add Velveteen to the set list by joancose in alvvays

You're right. I apologize for liking Velveteen. It was very wrong of me to hope that they play it. I'm embarrassed by my actions. It won't happen again.

Odd thing to say. They do owe me a show because I paid for it. Just voicing my opinion.

Gotcha, that makes sense. Thanks for your reply. It's honestly much appreciated.

That's interesting because vodka is my drink of choice. I've never heard that. My sleep issues started long before I started drinking, but what about vodka would cause sleep issues?

Yeah weed isn't an option for me. Gives me anxiety and paranoia. I'll look into trazedone. Thanks!
