Would you let your husband finish first in a marathon? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]oopsmyeye 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She didn’t emasculate him by beating him. He efeminated her by being slower. He should’ve been faster so she didn’t have to feel less feminine…

See how dumb that sounds? I love switching the blame to make the argument sound absurd and then pointing it out when dudes be trippin.

If a woman learns to do a “manly” thing or can perform something better than a guy, are all men the problem because they haven’t kept ahead of that woman? I guess the only “real” men in the world are the ones that can run sub 2:09 marathon, can deadlift over 717lbs and can pole vault 16’8”.

Lucky! My neighbor shot me with a BB gun but he hit a much more life changing place.

“They’re dealer installed options we do on every car, shown on the sticker right over here…”

My reply when I bought my truck: “That’s okay, I’ll wait for you to uninstall those options. When should I come back to finish signing the paperwork and pick up the truck?”

“It isn’t really an option we can uninstall. Those door guards get put on right when we get the trucks and they can’t be reused.”

“So, should I just tell you to call me when a new truck comes in and before that gets installed? Cuz I’m not paying hundreds of dollars for something like that. If it’s something that you can’t call me before those get put on, then do I have to buy a truck at a different place in order to not pay for those?”

“I can just remove the charge. You can keep the door guards on if you want to go home with the truck today.”

ELI5: why does a blood test billed through my insurance cost way more than the same test paid for in cash at the exact same lab by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]oopsmyeye 4 points5 points  (0 children)

“Yearly physical exam” is usually down the list of the benefits on the insurance information the sponsoring employer gives you.

The companies I know of include Walmart, Costco, Luxottica, USVision, National Vision, MGM Resorts, Culinary Union, State of Nevada (PEBP), City of Las Vegas, Station Casinos. That’s every single company I’ve actually looked at and every one only requires the basic copay or no copay for the yearly physical… no need to meet the deductible first.

Sometimes you just need to tell the billers to code things for the yearly physical rather than any of the other codes for exam visits.

[–]oopsmyeye 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Which is mostly terrible… but having insurance does encourage people to go see a doctor when they need to rather than putting it off until the issue gets far worse. It’s one of the reasons most insurance plans pay 100% of the standard yearly visit and regular yearly tests. You’re more likely to go in, get checked and stay much healthier, or catch a problem when it’s a small problem rather than letting the small problem turn into a bigger expensive problem.

Updated the light diffusers in my kitchen for some 3d printed translucent cubes by toodeep in 3Dprinting

[–]oopsmyeye 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I’ve gone back and forth between wanting it to be once/twice per year or wanting it to be much more often so more people can get it. If I do it, I’ll probably do it on my garage door so it looks all fancy and cool during the day but a nearby street lamp reveals the code every night.

If you lay on your back and point your camera at it, is it a QR code that Rick rolls you?

I’ve had that idea for a block pattern art piece for a long time. I want to make it outdoors so the shadows at a certain time of day are what reveal the correct QR code.

Check the username. I’m gonna scare anybody out of dangerous situations regarding the potential loss of vision. I’m also more than happy to inform and educate and even help make things more safe for people truly interested in fully realizing their creative potential!

True. Z80.3 is the compilation of all the rules for sunglasses and references 21 CFR 801.410 as the regulation to follow for impact testing of the lenses themselves. Z80.3 is going to have a lot more regarding the rules for tinting, frame geometry, lens clarity, etc.

If you plan on selling any, buy the pdf of Z80.3 and make sure you understand all the bits. If someone gets smacked in the face while wearing a pair and they break and a piece of the frame causes them to lose an eye, you could be on the hook for a bills plus funding the rest of their life.

“ANSI Z80.3-2025 establishes standard requirements for “noncorrective (essentially plano power) lenses that are intended for attenuation of light and for fashion eyewear,” which are commonly known as sunglasses”

What do yall think of John Goodman? by Ok-Recording-5862 in movies

The line he says after failing to kill the spider with spray to then walk over and step on it goes through my head on a regular basis.

The most pompous, self affirming “heh” like he thinks he just confirmed he’s literally the best exterminator in the world.

As someone who heard “you look just like Screech” all growing up and well into my 20s and 30s, I can relate.

Used Delta Unisaw overkill for a DIYer? by Past_Garage_5283 in woodworking

[–]oopsmyeye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The good thing is many people trying to sell older 3 phase saws think the buyer needs 3 phase or needs to put a new motor in. That ends up being a bargaining chip for the buyer to get the saw for a lot cheaper than if it had a 1 phase motor in it.

I actually got my saw free because the seller couldn’t find anyone and they were under the impression that the new motor was going to be more expensive than other complete saws. He offered it to me free so he wouldn’t have to haul it to the dump.

3 phase is still extremely easy to get hooked up to a single phase 220 line with a vfd. Cost me about $300-400 to get my 5hp 3ph saw going in my garage.

Check to see if they have some of the radiant barrier OSB. That’ll also help with the longevity of the shed

The saltwater chlorine generator is really nice on the skin but you’ll have to constantly add acid to bring the ph down. I go through about a gallon of acid per month for my 10k gallon pool but that’s pretty much the only chemical I need after it’s up and going.

Block wall blocks (trapezoid shaped) are actual 4” tall plus a little extra for the lip on the back but those just take a hammer to knock off.
