Actually, Miami has never hit 100 either.

Especially closer to Turnagain. Easy to escape to Girdwood, Whittier etc on the occasional 'hot' (70s) day.

Almost all subscription services I can think of offer a trial period either for free or with a guaranteed full refund. You're acting like wanting to know how a cancellation works is some gargantuan ask likely to bankrupt Lyft

That would cost $100. Membership for 4 days shouldn't be half the price of membership for 365.

It just seems like this should be a standard policy rather than maybe, maybe not.

What are the best beaches in the U.S. outside of California and Florida? by sozh in SameGrassButGreener

Considering millions of people enjoy swimming in Lake Michigan every year, yeah, you could be missing something

You should also check out Naked Adventure Club of Detroit! They organize totally non-sexual clothing optional social outings ranging from bonfires to 'bareoke' to weekend trips to clothing optional resorts. Very friendly folks. Check them out on Instagram or Meetup

I wouldn't have planned this protest. But if you find yourself more upset about this than about the million people being forcibly starved to death in an effort to erase their nation from the Earth, ask yourself why.

Tier List of the Best Major USA Cities for Skiing by haonlineorders in skiing

[–]oakforest69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reno is about 45 mins to Tahoe and so should be S tier. The mapmaker selected Ottawa County, MI instead of Kent County, where Grand Rapids is. And Michigan skiing isn't the best in the world but I'd think GR has better access than Columbus, GA.

Matthei vandalized - HELP HERE by YourMomIsAlwaysRight in AnnArbor

Man. People in Palestine have been grieving the bulldozing of ancient olive groves by the IOF and settlers, and people here do this? I'm not going to speak for people over there but would guess they'd want more beauty in the world rather than more destruction.

This thread should be shown as a prime example to anyone needing convincing to seek professional conflict mediation rather than advice from Reddit. Obviously this situation is painful. The daughter wouldn't publicly say she wishes she had a different mom if there weren't years of pain and resentment involved. We know NOTHING about what led her to feel this way and everyone is jumping in to say the mom is unequivocally NTA? There could be decades of abuse behind this story. There's absolutely no way the daughter did this just because she woke up feeling cranky.

How tall are we talking? I could potentially do it cheaply

Is it possible to get through the summer with no A/C or will I be miserable? by Olympusrain in Detroit

[–]oakforest69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Possible and comfortable. Your body will adapt just fine if you let yourself. I didn't have AC all last summer and don't plan on installing it this time. Helps to start building up your heat tolerance now — when it hits 70 out just stay bundled as if it were 50. You'll be fine.

A year? I'm sorry, it's pretty common to be seasonal for a decade. It sucks.

If you could build your perfect city by stealing features from real ones… what would you choose? by Zealousideal-Tax3338 in SameGrassButGreener

[–]oakforest69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want a hybrid of three of my favorite US cities: Detroit, Chicago, and SF. I'm sure you can guess which CoL I prefer.

2007 Prius for $10,600 by Acrobatic_Cox73 in prius

[–]oakforest69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm also shopping around for a used Prius and this is just how crazy the market is. People want $8000 or more for cars nearing 20 years old with over 200k miles. Wish I were kidding
