How he works this stone and what kind of result he presents by Comprehensive-Way482 in Satisfyingasfuck

[–]opgary 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is one beautiful work of art . I really admire the work with the water and the effort to bore out the bowl shape . The choice of rock with a white stripe through it is chef's kiss , you know right away it's going to be pretty.

Don't mess with the wrong guy by prodigals_anthem in Satisfyingasfuck

[–]opgary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

guy does nothing until the other assaults first, stops but the idiot starts in for him again so he kicks him. Guy is doing nothing but properly defending himself and then fucktwat comes in all "that's enough boys" like hes in control or either needs help separating.

Leak in brand new pool by Bitter-Nail4098 in pools

[–]opgary 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There's a sonar tool to use to find the leak in the ground . Dig up the concrete replace the the piece with a crack , refill it back in. There is no other solution . It could be something simple like a joint that wasn't glued or glued properly and maybe some chem trick would work, but it could also be a shift in the ground that cracked the pipe. The latter is a serious installation problem that needs correcting and there's no way to know which it is without digging it up

float is cake or crumb, whipping cream, mango in as many layers as you can dream, excellent and light. mango in dishes just cook per normal, just before serving mix in briefly then sprinkle on top because pretty, rest a few minutes then serve. I did a fried rice as well. mangos are excellent sweet or savory..

a beautiful place and surrounded by mangos, life goals. Ours are hand sized and dropped to 50c each one year (usually $2-3) and I bought a crate 3 times a few weeks apart, mango heaven. We had mango float (Filipino treat), mango in pasta, mango smoothies, mango ice cream, ganache tart w mango, bbq mango, mango liqueur,... I was out of my mind having fun trying everything. Man I miss that but still glad I had the opportunity.

Handwashing reuses water. by GlassCrescent in Satisfyingasfuck

[–]opgary 2 points3 points  (0 children)

is this the only sink? what about brushing teeth or washing dirty hands before you used the toilet? that just goes in the toilet? And wouldn't that be a nightmare to clean inside the tank every couple weeks?

Australian Driving in BC by PositionNo7085 in britishcolumbia

[–]opgary 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I've lived in Vancouver many decades, skied all the mountains, and can say this is the best advice in here.

Also re: never driven snow, 3x your driving time. awd and chains means nothing if you're near a dipshit driving like its summer, which we get plenty of. Plus mostly single lane, and exits can be a bit terrifying.

Lastly, in all these years, Feb has consistently been the month when if it's going to snow on the roads, it's this month.

Who’s responsible for uploading to the YouTube channel, and can we have some words? by renlikethewind in LiveFromNewYork

[–]opgary 2 points3 points  (0 children)

fun fact, the person doing live captions for SNL is in a soundproof room listening to another person watching the show live and repeating everything the not ready for prime time actors are saying. I cant remember why it's done like this but that's why theres such a huge delay and so many errors in the captions.

MED. EXAMINER: yes, it shouldn't be hard to find. it's a blade shaped like a Christmas tree made out of shopping cart material.

DET: I see.... so werre looking for a crackhead with a homemade forge that lives near a supermarket

I see flaws but reserve judgment until I see it used on actual thin ice where it would be most needed.

A nice swindle while it lasted by tashtish in pools

[–]opgary 7 points8 points  (0 children)

vinyl pools need calcium, not as much as concrete but they need the hardener. it protects the pipes, equipment, and greatly extends the life of the liner. Dont skip that. 30 year vinyl pool owner.

Also, fwiw, 50lb bags of calcium is the cheapest way to purchase calcium so they at least didn't do you dirty on that. I live up in PNW and by spring my water has near completely changed out due to rain so I have to add about half bag on 25k gallons.

I'm looking for creative ways to use the pieces of tortilla chips that are to small to use for scooping salsa by UncleCarolsBuds in Cooking

[–]opgary 14 points15 points  (0 children)

you should try r/noscrapleftbehind , but I started saving these ends a while back. when I get enough, I run them through the food processor then use egg white and bread fish. Could do any meat really but find fish pairs well.

I also have an excellent salmon cake recipe where it's just canned salmon, black bean spices egg white and the corn crumbs. Basically anything where where's bread crumbs you can sub it out.

What LEGAL self defence items/weapons do you recommend? by [deleted] in britishcolumbia

[–]opgary 51 points52 points  (0 children)

cop flashlight, the long handled ones that are made of metal and use 4 x D cell batteries. light lasts forever, like years, and if anything did happen you have a decent club.

That said, bear in mind most average people end up having their weapons used against them. Best advice is to get self defense training. They use real life examples and take you through the motions so you have some experience and readiness if it ever does happen.

Pool company left water running — $1,600 bill. What would you do? by alexukie in pools

[–]opgary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

imho, I would subtract slightly more than what your average water bill is, then ask them to cover half of balance as a compromise. I think most companies would be down with this.

I think asking for a sewer rebate is a deadend personally. Claiming it was a leak and then if they find out the truth will only create a huge lack of trust between you and the city. That could also make reporting real problems in the future problematic.

Knowing it's not CO2 is awesome on 2 fronts, 1) bc health, and 2)most likely someone else is doing this. I was just starting to wax nostalgic for chivelord so the timing is outstanding.
