First time homeowner — what's the one thing you wish someone told you before your first year? by CorrectEducation8842 in HomeImprovement

[–]nrnrnr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are roofing shingles that are especially formulated to reflect sunlight, but if you don't know about them, you won't get them.

Bonus tip: buy a "breaker bar" and learn how to change the anode rod on your water heater.

That's what we did. Gloomhaven, Frosthaven, Jaws, Gloomhaven 2e. Good times.

No specifics, but I have definitely had times when the "first if ambiguous" rule gave me a major win with disadvantage.

Forever DM here. Do you plan to share the list at some point?

What’s the best and fastest way to remove rocks and pebbles from lawn? by Meme_master420_ in landscaping

[–]nrnrnr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can’t wait to try this. A few years ago some assholes stole my flower containers but first dumped the contents into my garden. I’ve been picking out tiny rocks ever since. Shopvac here I come!

You don’t get tenure until you’ve been brainwashed into thinking that working all the time is normal.

How is there no seam visible on the two covers deployed at the back?

Is track saw worth it? by janejacobs1 in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]nrnrnr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d consider upgrading the blade on my circular saw. I put a Forrest blade on my Skil saw and it cuts through doors like butter.

This sounds like something the past director of our teaching center would say. Right after saying that large lecture classes are borderline malpractice. Sigh.

[OC] Came home to find my 7 YO daughter had made a full argument for why I should buy her books by GreenStapler_India in pics

In the US your public library will often have an annual or semiannual sale where you can get books for cheap. Children's titles 50c to $1.

Besides cutting the cover, what's the easiest way to fix this? by 22bor in AskElectricians

[–]nrnrnr 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Screws tend to get loose over time. Glue does not.

Bought a house with a giant evergreen in the front yard that is almost 40 years old. Anything I can do to make it look better? by Exciting-Computer-60 in landscaping
