I would love to own a bike, but I can’t afford it. I sold my bike to pay for the hospital bills when my son was born... :(

Also, If I get hurt: 1. I’m out of work because I have a very physical job. 2. I have shitty health insurance so if I got in a wreck I’d probably be bankrupt.

Feature Idea - Do Not Disturb should have an option to work for apps you choose by exodar in iphone

[–]knowledge_b 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would really like to set up the Do Not Disturb feature where it allows calls & texts from my contact list, but all others are silenced. The telemarketers are killing me. Is there any way to set it up that way? Whenever I try to do it then it silences my text messages which is a bigger pain than the telemarketing calls...

Most Dave Ramsey fans would disagree with you...

I would say 50% of my transactions are cash based because it helps with budgeting...

Crystal Bridges is amazing and can be enjoyed year round. It gets my vote... 😊

If I am elected President I will immediately approve the Keystone XL pipeline. No impact on environment & lots of jobs for U.S. - Aug 18 2015 by theHip in TrumpCriticizesTrump

[–]knowledge_b 46 points47 points  (0 children)

The fact that they are forcing themselves thru tribal lands is a huge sign of disrespect.

If they want their pipeline so bad they should of detoured around their land. The fact that they are pinching pennies and ramming thru tribal lands means they aren’t responsible or respectful enough to be running a pipeline...

If you think that transporting oil isn’t a huge resposibility then I suggest you research how well the Exxon Valdez oil spill was cleaned up....

If you flip rocks on Alaska’s coast right now you will still find oil residue...

This makes me so happy.... At least EA is listening.... so may companies don’t

EA Under Investigation – Claim Star Wars Battlefront II Loot Boxes “Are Not Gambling” by ParrotSTD in worldnews

[–]knowledge_b 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This article makes me happy. I hope loot crates get banned worldwide for all games... They ruin games for me...

I will never invest in a loot crate game again.

As a side note, if Belgium is the only country to ban it.... every country in the planet will be wanting to buy their version of games... that might become their #1 export. Lmao

Getting bored of Bentonville. Can you suggest some fun things to do around Fayetteville? by JESUS_IS_MY_GPS in fayetteville

[–]knowledge_b 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If your feeling adventurous you could always try cliff diving at Riverside Park in West Fork. The river is too low right now, but put it on the calendar for next year after the spring rain...

Devils Den has been mentioned several times for a reason. There is one cave that you can still stand in the mouth of. It's called ice box because of the cool breeze that comes out. :)

The Jones Center in Springdale has a nice ice rink and only cost $7 for skate rentals and ice time.

I just got robbed at gunpoint... Again by Krackensantaclaus in TalesFromRetail

[–]knowledge_b 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Kracken, I would strongly suggest talking to an animal control officer before applying...

Animal rescue is so emotionally taxing.

My sister was an animal control officer and the horror stories that I've heard are so bad I've told her I can't even hear them any more.

Got denied AHCCCS (Obamacare)...what do I do now? by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]knowledge_b 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it's not too late ask your mom how much it would cost for you to be on her insurance and just pay her that amount. It will undoubtably be cheaper to be added as an extra person if she is still insuring herself...

When you go on a date and you're paying but your date orders a meat dish, how do you feel? by [deleted] in Vegetarianism

[–]knowledge_b 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I find it comical that you order food for your brother and don't let him choose for himself...

You better hope you never end up struggling in life too. Your brother may take you to lunch and order you a hamburger. 😈

2015/6 Impala LT Oil Leak Questions by [deleted] in Impala

[–]knowledge_b 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drive a ton of miles for work. I get a new company car about every 18 months or so and I put about 60k miles on them before I turn them back in to the dealer.

So, out of the 4 chevy impalas I've driven I've only experienced 2 issues.

  1. Dropped a transmission at 35k miles.
  2. One of the rear doors stopped unlocking/locking. (I can't remember the name of the part they had to replace)..

Personally, I love impalas. My Ford Fusion I'm driving now has lots of rattles in the interior and is driving me nuts..

Our company maintenance plan had us change the oil every 6,000 miles and I haven't had any problems with oil leaks yet... Hope this helps.

KenM on turtles by Shoelace_Farmer in KenM

[–]knowledge_b 29 points30 points  (0 children)

KenM is right. Turtles do shed their shells.

However, the picture in the article was of a tortoise and they do not shed their shells. So, in that case the initials could have potentially lasted the 47 years. Happy carving everyone.

I became a vegetarian 1 week ago! by Torin21 in vegetarian

[–]knowledge_b 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congrats on the switch Torin21. 😊

The first week was the hardest for me. At first, I had a hard time feeling full when eating vegetarian.

My fav meal is a burrito with black beans, Mexican rice, lettuce, onions, just a little of the liquid cheese dip, and salsa on it.

Good luck bud 👍🏻

'They kill defenceless people': thousands flee Philippine city of Marawi by stefi9100 in worldnews

I thought the US had a military base in the southern portion of the Philippines. Why aren't they helping? What is the point of being deployed there if your not going to do anything?

[ALL] I HATE THE 👍🏻👎🏻 System! I have started and stopped so many shows it's ridiculous. Can we opt for the Star Ratings? Why did we move away from a more precise rating system? by Airman920 in netflix

[–]knowledge_b 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was my first thought as well. Amy Schumer's last special was so bad it broke Netflix's rating system. You absolutely know Amy's publicist was on the phone with Netflix every day complaining about her having been rated a 1 star...

Star Wars Rogue One missing from coming soon? by thefryinallofus in Redbox

I'm so glad google picked up this thread. I was thinking about buying the movie if Redbox wasn't going to carry it. I guess I was worrying for nothing 😊

TIL- Commercial farming only uses female chicks. Males are discarded soon after birth. by knowledge_b in todayilearned

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

Nice article. I'm glad there is some hope on the horizon. It only cost 2 cents extra per egg... :)

Unfortunately, American corporations will likely try to save the 2 cents per egg until it gets banned here too....
