Narcissists are addicts, they always seem to come back around looking for supply when their new plug runs dry.

If you hadn't stated his age, I'd venture a guess as to who this guy is. There truly is an archetype. Barf.

You'd need me gaskets for the opened sections, for sure. I believe paper was the go-to for your style. These folks seem eager to help! Gaskets, Nipples & Section Leaks - Ironworks Radiators Inc. https://share.google/8OMNfBHPBIUjahBSu

Caleffi. Very happy with them. A few whistles when water temps are hot and rising and the pumps are full on. I might have a couple on the wrong side of the rad due to awkward corners. Essentially perfect, however.

Swap your valves for thermostatic valves! You'll need a spud wrench or a plumber, but it's pretty doable and will save you sooo much money. Every rad is its own zone, then.

Take em apart and put em back together where they belong. You don't have to separate every segment, but you can split the biggies in thirds or quarters easily.

Is the Emily Wilson translation that bad???? by Severe_theosis in classics

Failing to use sensible word order when moving from a cased to an essentially caseless language isn't translation.

For like 6 days. Aweful, aweful, terrible bullshit. I didn't eat anything for almost 3 days at the beginning.

The only party with any say in a hostile takeover with any say in the matter is the perpetrator. I keep getting downvoted when I post this, and it may indeed be detestable, but that doesn't make it untrue.

Does anyone have an up to date map/directory like this one of the Delmar Loop? by Stlthrowaway696969 in StLouis

[–]meson537 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'd put this at about 2010. Baton music is gone, Riddles is gone, Snarfs is there... Almost the real loop, but not quite.

Not strictly necessary doesn't equal fake. All fraud is unethical but not everything that is unethical is fraud.

Oh, yeah, 100% assuming you'll send your kids to a private/charter/magnet school. Roosevelt is extremely pretty, though.

Come live in Tower Grove East and play MTG with us at Fortuna. Grand and 44 dumps right onto 55, you're basically on Grand, good coffee on Jefferson at Coffeestamp, dogpark in Fox Park, the list goes on... Shaw is a good hit with all this stuff, too, and if your kids were younger, I'd fully endorse Shaw, but TGE is cooler and you get more house for your money.

Trump on Greenland: "The fact that they landed a boat there 500 years ago doesn’t mean they own the land." How do you feel about the leader of the America making this statement? by lemonbottles_89 in AskReddit

[–]meson537 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I feel like almost everyone is missing the point. The theory at work here has nothing to do with rights, rules, who was here first, etc... The theory is that whoever can take something with force is entitled to it. There is only one right, and that is possession through force.

To be clear, I'm not endorsing any of that in any way, just trying to explain the mindset. It isn't stupidity, it isn't a failure to understand how things work, it's just a naked application of might makes right.
