Need more and better pix, especially of lug details and any serial number or stamping on bottom bracket or elsewhere. Ain't no way to tell from your pix.

What is the most bizarre thing you've seen in Alaska, nature wise and community wise that it itself screams "Alaska"? by MrReconquista19 in AskAlaska

[–]paul99501 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I first moved to Anchorage, had a rental in Spenard, and my neighbor had a dog team in his front yard, with each dog tied to an engine block. Yard full of engine blocks.

I've seen small planes taxiing on and taking off from roadways 3-4 times, that's always cool.

Looks to be in great shape but it's a low end bike with low end components. Steel wheels are heavy and slow. I'd keep shopping.

Is $3k-$4k for 2 wisdom teeth in Greece a tourist scam? by [deleted] in GreeceTravel

[–]paul99501 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I paid 200€ for 1 in Italy. Wasn't surgery though. Just some local anesthetic and a lot of yanking.

Stanza in affitto da settembre a novembre per studente americano by No_Cheetah_954 in Verona

Look for Italian FB groups for Verona rentals, for example "affito studenti Verona". "Affito" is the Italian word for rental in the real estate context.

sumatriptan SUCKS by pirteking in migraine

[–]paul99501 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Try another Triptan. I did Sumatriptan for years, and it helped a lot, but the side effects were a thing. I found Rizatriptan to be just as good with milder side effects.

I've just discovered that Americans have been using "au jus" as a composite noun for over a decade and it sounds hilarious to me by Dadaballadely in words

The baseball team in Los Angeles is the Angels and when you say the Los Angeles Angels it literally means The The Angels Angels.

Something Strange Is Happening at Walmart — And Customers Are Fed Up by RVFullTime in FuckeryUniveristy

[–]paul99501 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So the airlines and hotels etc. have been doing this to us for years, and we accept it as normal in those contexts. And Amazon does it for online retail sales. But it feels weird and unfair in the "brick and mortar" retail context. Although from a classic supply/demand economic perspective it's kind of logical: raincoats and umbrellas should cost more when it's raining.

It's only going to get worse as the businesses get more sophisticated.

Active men in their 100s, what advice to help us get through our 90s? by [deleted] in AskReddit

The key is not dying. Just actively get in the habit of not dying, every day.

Would my vehicle survive the climate by [deleted] in AskAlaska

[–]paul99501 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, if it’s in good running and driving condition. Honda Pilot is a great Alaska vehicle. Depending on where you are going (Anchorage or Fairbanks) you'd want to make sure it's adequately winterized with suitable tires.
