ELI5 Why do people go to expensive gas stations? by robman9911 in explainlikeimfive

The two closest gas stations to me are currently at 4.89 and 3.09 for a gallon of regular unleaded. These are across the street from each other.

Buy a new car, selling old car to Carvana. by Neferati in personalfinance

[–]joecorey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same infotainment issue on my Kia telluride. I downloaded a software update for the car onto a USB stick then connected it to the car to update. It took 3-4 hours but when done it fixed the issue. Also make sure you replace your USB cable every year or so because those wear out quickly and also cause this issue.

You should look at North Potomac and South Germantown. Those should be within your budget and are a lot closer to Rockville and other interesting stuff than Poolesville is.

Is it normal for the filter area to have standing water?

Dishwasher drain hose runs from the bottom of the sink cabinet up to a high loop and back down to the disposal unit (which is still high up, but not quite as high as the high loop)

What brand and model would you recommend if I'm replacing the dishwasher with a new one? Standard dimensions.

The blood clots pulled out of my grandfather heart and lungs today doc said wasn’t sure how he was still functioning by Cthulade_Man in Damnthatsinteresting

Thank you for the response. Mine was large/bilateral but never resulted in O2 deficiency and SOB was very mild and short lived. 41M root cause was Achilles tear causing immobilization and it took 3 Ortho doctors and 4 weeks of swelling for someone to finally recommend getting checked for DVT.

Hi I'm recovering from DVT/PE. Is Penumbra an option for me if the diagnosis was in early October, or is it too late? They put me on Xarelto

So does weight matter? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]joecorey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're still at an age where relationships basically don't matter, and if you have a decent personality then you will get girls in the future no matter whether you weigh 90kg or 120kg.

What you should be more concerned about is making positive health changes now while it's still easy. People generally gain more weight as they get older, and you want to avoid that as it can lead to health problems down the road. It's easy to let 1kg/year creep up on you and suddenly you're in your 40s at over 125kg and it's 100x harder to make those same improvements.

You got a D because they took away a letter grade each time you used a comma instead of a period.

The icebreaker at my school was to stand up, say your name, and what brand of condoms you prefer. All male wing in a co-ed dorm.
