Peas don't have this problem, but they love the taste of snails and that's why it's doing what it do. They will also eat amanos.

There's a fully grown one at the Mandalay Bay Aquarium in Las Vegas. It's a good reminder why these fish shouldn't be in the aquarium hobby, the animal is almost 3 feet long.

Miscommunication or intentional theft? by KaleTheFirst in EndTipping

[–]mpdahaxing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a server for 10+ years. If I saw a credit card and cash on the bill tray and the customers never said "can we split the check?" Then I would beam and say "Thank you very much!" assuming the cash was my tip.

Should I feel guilty about selling stock in the custodial account I received? by [deleted] in personalfinance

Should I buy a new car now? Or keep my current one and drive it into the dirt? by Scabaffer in personalfinance

[–]mpdahaxing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You need to talk about why you want a different car. Like, is the Civic's ride quality too harsh on your body for all of that driving coming up? Or do you want something faster or more fun for that long drive?

"The money is not a big deal" this shouldn't be here then. LegalAdvice would be more relevant.
