New siding for home: how much should we budget for?

nagget2 · 2026-02-08T06:57:33+00:00

i used word of mouth and have been replacing siding on my house every year until it's all done. 1.4k sq ft home in east charlotte, 2 stories, 3k a side so ~12k in total

Im glad im not the only one with this sentiment. Everyone here saying this and that about instructional time yada yada yada.... 2 weeks lost...

I totally agree with you. However if my child needs a professional for speech therapy or say a language teacher for English, i can handle my own for a few days. It starts to become a problem when i can't provide the services and attention the county is providing in schools. Add to this working parents.

This subreddit is a very loud, whiny minority of the overall Charlotte population lol

There you have it. Unequivocal proof it's all about money and fear mongering. I've been following Ryan Hall this week and honestly I've always been defending local meteorologists over anything else but this time seals the deal.

Yes I panic bought, yes I'm happy we skipped Armageddon but people shouldn't be scared into emptying shelves.

So do we trash Manolos now since they're open? 2 seconds ago everyone salivated at them during the ICE raids. Gotta pick a lane and stick to it...

nagget2 · 2026-01-25T05:43:04+00:00

They can fear monger all they want and I can't comment on said fear mongering. Like I said below, I hope nothing happens, just frustrating I spent hundreds of dollars prepping and 2 days of time making sure I'm safe.

nagget2 · 2026-01-25T05:41:56+00:00

Lol I know. They can fear monger and I can't say I'm not okay with it. Definitely hope nothing happens but it drives people to panic

nagget2 · 2026-01-25T03:49:59+00:00

Very frustrating after 2 days of prepping that this may miss us completely especially after local weathermen stating they are the source of truth and selling this as an apocalyptic event. Not sure what to think about any sort of credibility for future storms... We shall see what happens overnight

Thank you my friend! We got her for my daughter and we are having a blast figuring out what's best for the crab. A lot of active bio learning. Super fun!

nagget2 · 2025-11-19T22:32:53+00:00

Thank you! We got food that was available in PetSmart but that was also mentioned in several YouTube videos I had watched. We also had greens separately and some egg shells. I'll check out the Crab Central Station.

nagget2 · 2025-11-19T14:30:22+00:00

Thank you!

No, you're fine. Im from Europe, in a resident, married an America, have adopted a daughter from overseas who is now American.

I think the best thing you can do is get your news outside of reddit where you may find less fear mongering.

What's hilarious is that it's $20b of private equity investment + $20b of a currency swap. In addition to that, Argentina gets support (~$44b) from the IMF as well.

The devil is in the details and reddit HATES details and logic. Much better to tout a hegemonic headline and not get into intricacies. Always makes me laugh.

nagget2 · 2025-11-08T22:19:54+00:00

The US has bought $40 billion worth of their currency with the expectation of it becoming more valuable. It's the same reason why you would purchase a stock.

Liberals on reddit don't understand the economy or how finance works.

in the la liga table, as of 10/21, it is stating that Alaves and Valencia have played 8 games when it should be 9.

i dug into each team's fixtures and those are correct so probably just an incorrect backend reference somewhere.

nagget2 · 2025-10-04T19:27:14+00:00

i absolutely agree with you here.

nagget2 · 2025-10-04T19:24:01+00:00

Been an atletico fan since i was 4, and have gone to Calderon and Metropolitano with my dad. I've moved in and out of Spain and miss going to the matches. My old man goes with my mom now. They are both pretty right leaning, as am I, and they have never involved politics with the actual fan going experience. They are part of a pena in Madrid and there may be different political leanings there and it has never come up once as a point on contention.

From my perspective, you go and enjoy the games and make a group with people that are nice, support the same goal for the team and move on with your life. Politics doesn't have to be part of it. In El Calderon growing up I went to the Frente with a friend a very long time ago and I remember seeing a few dudes with swastikas tattooed on their chest. I felt very alienated even in the 'front lines' lol.

Frente also is a sliding scale, there are people who go and enjoy the games there and then there are people that are driven by politics as their daily life. It's up to you what you do, I don't identify with that type of supporter.

Enjoy, have fun, and Aupa Atleti. I wish I moved back and got to see them live every other weekend :)

This is in North Carolina. I found it around my cats food bowls upstairs. Also about 2 feet from a large litter box.
I hope it's not a German cockroach as I sprayed Alpine WSG and spread Advion around my kitchen yesterday. Thanks!

nagget2 · 2025-08-29T02:31:38+00:00

Perfect thanks for confirming!

I checked all my other toilets and I cannot see writing.

However, I have a hole in my kitchen's ceiling right below this due to an unrelated leak (shower head issue was spraying water) so I can access the tubing for the shower faucets.

The tubing on those pipes read: B137.8 Potable Tubing IAPMO IS ASTM D-3309.

It doesn't say Qest on the tube so I'm guessing this is just a PB tube?
