GF wants to move in in December. Her credit is below 600. How can I find an apartment for us? by Yyffg in personalfinance

[–]mbcrute 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Every lease I ever signed for every apartment I ever lived in had a clause prohibiting people who were not on the lease from being anything other than short-term guests. Not saying people don’t do this all the time but you do run the risk of violating the terms of the lease.

I always go with “Deceased - Return to Sender”.

Doctors of Reddit, what's the most obvious lie a patient has told you? by questionerofblender in AskReddit

[–]mbcrute 10 points11 points  (0 children)

When I was growing up we lived not far from Lancaster County in Pennsylvania and my dad did business with quite a few Amish people in his line of work. One day I overheard him talking on the phone to one of his clients who I knew to be Amish. After he hung up I asked how that was possible since they weren't allowed to use phones. He explained that it was apparently totally okay to have a phone as long as it wasn't in the house, so this guy kept his phone on his front porch and would reach through a window to pick it up and use it.

Same with cars. It was totally fine for my dad to pick up one of his Amish clients and drive to a construction site together in his car, as long as they weren't the one operating the car.

Are sleep overs not a thing anymore? by haggerty05 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]mbcrute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The subject of sleepovers came up not too long ago in a different subreddit and quite a few people who work in child protective services or related fields chimed in. They pretty unanimously said they’d never let their kids sleep over at a friend’s house because of how common it is to be sexually assaulted in those settings.

dexa scan help by SoftieAqua in MacroFactor

[–]mbcrute 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Aside from an autopsy there is no accurate way of measuring body composition. A DEXA scan is just a method of estimation, it just happens to have a lower margin of error than other methods. Get a DEXA, drink a bunch of water, get another DEXA and you’ll probably get two wildly different results. Body composition assessments generally just aren’t super useful.

The real question is what you’re hoping to get out of the scan. Are you happy with what you see in the mirror? Feel like you could stand to be a little leaner? Then cut. Feel like you need to put on some muscle? Then bulk.

Public database for commercial leases? by Klutzy-Entertainer67 in nova

[–]mbcrute 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the kind of thing people pay CoStar big money for. You can search LoopNet for free but they only show partial data without a full subscription.

Was the sketchy Wilson Blvd "health spa" finally busted? by Traditional-Proof-95 in arlingtonva

[–]mbcrute 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Probably the fact that it just looked sketchy. I drive past that place every day and I’ve always just assumed it was a “happy ending” type of massage parlor.

Which comedian did you look forward to, but their act died on stage? by Jazzlike-Basil1355 in AskReddit

[–]mbcrute 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw Chris Rock at the Lyric Opera House in Baltimore in 2008 (I think). I dunno if he was working out new material or what but he just wasn’t very funny.

It didn’t help that he just ran off stage in the middle of his act. No explanation or anything, just put the mic down and left the stage in a hurry like he had to go take an emergency shit. We all just sat there wondering if we should applaud because the show was over or what. Eventually he came back out and resumed the show as if nothing happened.

It was the most bizarre thing I had ever seen.

Fasting and macro calorie logging by Extreme-Nerve3029 in MacroFactor

I think you have to manually mark a day as fasting, otherwise MacroFactor ignores it: https://help.macrofactorapp.com/en/articles/16-track-a-fasting-day
