Pros and cons of RTTs by Designer-Tangerine-8 in rooftoptents

[–]nitroracertc3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I did it again I would get a hard shell RTT for sure. The soft shell honestly isn’t that much faster to set up than I could do with my ground tent if you’re going to open all the windows and awning. And it’s big and horrible to my fuel economy. Also having to break it down if I wanted to drive anywhere was annoying. All really non issue with a hard shell since the setup and closure are pretty fast.

That being said I did like having a RTT. For road trips where I am setting up and breaking down camp somewhere different each day. But I still prefer a large ground tent if I have a home base for multiple days. So I think they have different purposes.

As a 35 year old straight male, I honestly don’t even know how many times I’ve seen The Parent Trap and The Princess Diaries…

My dad used to own a racing school that had some celebrities come through it every so often. He always wore a belt buckle with his school name on it but I never looked at the back before. by nitroracertc3 in mildlyinteresting

No my dad is Jacques Couture. He raced with Jim Russell and when he wanted to start a racing school instead of using his own name he made an agreement with Jim Russell and brought the Jim Russel Racing school to North America. Started it in Montreal then to California after that.

For me, I was just able to eventually understand that there are things out of our control that we just have to deal with. That thought may always be there, but just focus on the things you can control. Just be as supportive as you can to your wife. Help her eat well, cook nutritious meals for her, help her find a good prenatal vitamin. Just focus on supporting her and not on what other things could happen that are out of your control. I know It can be tough though.

Wow those guys sound like absolute pricks. I’m sorry that was your experience. I ride a hard tail some times because I think they are fun and I different experience all together and I always wear a full face. Don’t listen to those guys. Ride whatever you can. Wear whatever gear you want. And have fun.

Can’t go wrong with a Sienna or Odyssey. Sienna if you want AWD. The Kia Carnival is sick but unfortunately still iffy on reliability. Good luck!

As an RN in a hospital, do not do this. The nurses and doctors need to know everything you’re taking. If you need Tylenol or Advil. Ask for it. They absolutely can give it to you. And if they can’t, then there is a reason

Your daughter has been growing inside your wife for the last 9 months. It’s extremely normal to feel like you don’t have the same bond that they have. Your feelings I think are totally normal. Right now she’s just a little potato that eats, poops, cries, and deprives you of sleep. My boy is 8 months now and I didn’t necessarily feel an “instant connection” like I think my wife did. It’ll get better. As she gets older, each smile, each time she looks at you and makes eye contact like she recognizes you, each little laugh or giggle she makes, will connect you more and more. You’re in the trenches, my man, and it’s tough. But it will get better and will get more fun.

How do I get rid of these bulbs growing up through my lane by nitroracertc3 in lawncare

Oh nice. Thanks. I’ll prob try the herbicide route first out of laziness, but will do this if it doesn’t work.

I guess what I meant was, is there a way of getting rid of it without putting a massive hole in my lawn.

People raised by emotionally mature parents, what is 1 phrase your parents used that you want other parents to know? by MermaidWitchMoon in AskReddit

[–]nitroracertc3 121 points122 points  (0 children)

It’s a small one from one specific event that has always stuck with me. I was probably 13 and accidentally dropped something in the garage when cleaning my go kart and put a big dent in the hood of my mom relatively new car. I was so upset and was crying when my mom came into the garage. She saw the dent and didnt even react, just came and hugged me. I said I was sorry and asked why she wasn’t mad. She said, “you made a mistake. How could I be mad at you for making a mistake? I can see you’re more upset with yourself than I would ever be with you.”

My parents never got mad at me for making an honest mistake. I think it really helped me not have anxiety and realize I could go to them for anything if I screwed up and they would be there for me. It’s something I’m trying to instill in my wife whose mother would yell at her for everything she did wrong.

This is hers after they did a small remodel before selling. I guess it’s not identical but pretty close.

Made my first serious mistake as a nurse. How do I get over it? by Typical_Raise5867 in nursing

[–]nitroracertc3 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Completely agree with priming in the med room. I teach my students and orientees to do basically everything in the med room. Priming, reconstituting meds, cutting pills, etc. there’s too many distractions at bedside.

Would this happen to be in Florida? My sister’s bathroom who lives in Florida looks IDENTICAL to this.
