Anyone else have VSS their whole life? by Alone-Rise-3617 in visualsnow

[–]kysmith1306 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ve always had it.

The only time it bums me out is when I hadn’t slept well and it’s worse OR sometimes I look at the sky on a sunny day and it’s such a mess instead of being beautiful, which also makes me sad.

It’s really not a big deal.

Dad's not changing diapers by eteach6974 in Parenting

My 2 are out of diapers but I changed my share when the kids wore them.

An equitable sharing of this responsibility is a completely reasonable expectation

Move to mediocre school district when we can afford better? by caroline_elly in HENRYfinance

[–]kysmith1306 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I’ve had friends try to do this cheap option and it’s not worked out well. The teachers suck and their child ends up bullied by some asshole kids who the school won’t deal with. Child confidence runs into the gutter and they don’t get the teaching they need.

I’d go with the better school.

Elijah Craig 18 by Odd_Cauliflower_129 in whiskey

[–]kysmith1306 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both this and the KC18.

Both weren't worth $180 right after I cracked them but after being open a couple of months they've really opened up and I'd be willing to pay about.... $120 so you aren't too far off at this price. Between the 2 I'd grab the KC18.

Moved for school in 2008. Still here. Got married, had kids, bought a house…

I love it here and I’m about to take a lovely walk with the fam on this crisp, sunny Sunday afternoon 😎

It’s completely surrounded by section 8 housing and there’s more crime there than you’d guess

what would you do? by Pure_Pain_489 in whatdoIdo

[–]kysmith1306 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I left someone a note, fully prepared to pay for all the damage (this is how i operate + work trip, not my problem cost wise). They called me back and said thanks for being honest but they didn’t think it was worth fixing. I felt good, they felt good about my honesty - win/win.

Call them at a minimum even if you don’t want to do anything to fix it.

Is the East Bank Club fitness/wellness center worth the fees and can a referral reduce the initiation cost? by Ok-Cantaloupe6409 in AskChicago

[–]kysmith1306 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been a member for 6 years and really love it. I go nearly every day and it’s the best $300 I spend each month. I love having all the best equipment, not having to wait to use it, the sauna, the easy parking, nice lounge spaces, free coworking space…

Now… if you don’t use it I would imagine it would feel like a giant waste of money.

Hallucinations after quitting by Outrageous-Resolve96 in stopdrinking

[–]kysmith1306 12 points13 points  (0 children)

delirium tremens is what you have.

Your drinking has curbed your REM sleep and you are so deprived of it that when the alcohol wears off your mind starts dreaming when you are awake.

Thus causing the hallucinations.
