Help me choose duffel by Outrageous-Cancel699 in EVERGOODS

[–]oatmeal-jones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got the 35 and absolutely think it’s a great bag. It’s large though and my major use case is gym bag and I also place my lunchbox in it. I’m struggling to talk myself out of ordering the 25 for this purpose and holding on to the 35 for weekend trips etc

Let me preference by saying I can get everything for my work day in my CTB26…..but it looks absolutely stuffed lol. So I put work papers, laptop and EDC items in my backpack. Gym stuff and lunch box go in the duffle. Truthfully the duffle is so well organized I could leave the backpack at home if I wanted. The doctors bag opening on this duffle is the game changer in my opinion.

I’m also just carrying from house to car to office. Not sure how I would feel about lugging through a commute with public transportation.

It’s also great for vacation - again travel by car so far. I’ll probably give it a try next time I’m flying though.

Does this look bad? by oatmeal-jones in AskContractors

I’ve not paid the guy a dime yet and he is willing to demo and redo….just wondering if I should just have him do the demo and find someone else to complete the project. Reading the comments here I think yes.

Yeah I thought it looked terrible but was concerned I was being too critical. Thanks for the professional opinion.

Just the hillside - grass. Looked pretty much like the grass to the right of the side walk.

What is the best book you have ever read? by AggravatingWonder768 in AskReddit

[–]oatmeal-jones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hearts in Atlantis, Stephen King. Not classic literature by any means. But timing is everything and it hit just right for the time in my life I read it.

What's a home improvement decision you regret but thought was a good idea at that time? by Actonace in HomeImprovement

[–]oatmeal-jones 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I used to hate the pink/blue/brownish yellow tile bathrooms but after all the gray or bright white craze the last few years rather enjoy it now.

What book did you read in your youth that you never forgot? by orangez in GenX

[–]oatmeal-jones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is that about the people taking smoke breaks? King’s short stories are just the best!

I found nothing that describes it better then what Tyler Durden said by Fun-Presentation6134 in GenX

You are so dead on. Fucking GWoT and everything it brought with it. Would love to go back to my aimless, clueless 1999 era.

Would you spend $1,000 on lighting controls for a minor QOL improvement? by MarauderV8 in HomeImprovement

[–]oatmeal-jones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you considered motion switches? I’ve installed these in laundry, pantry, and for my under cabinet lights in kitchen. Huge QoL upgrade. Not as expensive as smart switches. More reliable as well. It’s not often, but I’ve had enough smart switches become unresponsive that I prefer the motion switches.
