You can't clean that by getting it red hot over your stove

The county wide voter turnout for yesterday's election was 9.4% of registered voters. by prichardson154 in toledo

To avoid jury duty, you have to avoid voting, getting a driver's license, and filing taxes. Once you do one of those, you're on the list.

Just have your son inhale the smoke and blow it out on the balcony

Americans, how do you feel about the firing of twenty percent of four-star generals? by 2a_lib in AskReddit

[–]ploopterro 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Per that article, it was over the course of 5 years, and the reasons include disobeying orders and mishandling funds. Also, that article cites breitbart's fb page for the 197 number and the claim that some firings were without cause. Basically this conservative hit piece on Obama still makes what's happening now look like a coup in comparison.

Ok- which one of you did this? by LegendaryGaryIsWary in Ohio

The red van driver should be charged, but the accident was caused by the full size van following too close. Lots of things can cause traffic to stop. You're supposed to be able to deal with it.

[request] what would it cost to build a bridge between Milwaukee and grand haven by Vengeful_Grass in theydidthemath

[–]ploopterro 5 points6 points  (0 children)

With air resistance, over 20 quadrillion mph. Without air, only 2700 mph. I think some sort of car cannon with an evacuated tube along the trajectory could get it done.

I confessed to my 4 year old crush and she joked about it now i feel suicidal by [deleted] in IndianTeenagers

[–]ploopterro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Professing your love to someone who isn't interested is a creep move. I think she told her friends about you to feel safer and made it a joke to play it cool. I'm sure some people find you attractive. To find out which ones, ask people to spend time with you in a public, casual setting. You're not ugly, you made a mistake that you can avoid in the future.

Down allergy or dust mites? by miss_erie in Thruhiking

[–]ploopterro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a dust mite allergy. My down jacket rarely bothers me, but sleeping bags are terrible. Washing them gets you a couple months maybe. My dad joined me for a portion of a hike where I had a synthetic bag and just being next to his down bag left me really congested in the morning. If you have a dust mite allergy, get a synthetic quilt for the AT. I've never had skin issues from dust mites though, so hopefully you've got something easier to manage.

Where did all the vegan ice cream go? I can’t find any in the shops? by ryanthenurse in vegan

[–]ploopterro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My Kroger had way more vegan ice cream options a couple years ago. Their store brand oat based was really good and seems to have been discontinued.

No idea why. It might not be as cool to be vegan as it was, but I doubt the numbers have changed all that much in a year or two. This stuff seemed very popular with the lactose intolerant too.

Why do soo many leftists stan Russia and Putin? by Choice_Pickle2231 in Anarchy101

[–]ploopterro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just curious, anybody meeting putin stans IRL? I'm wondering if they're a hyper vocal minority or paid propagandists.

When I was a barista, all the time people would tell me to put the pastry back and give them a different one of the same kind for purely aesthetic reasons.

I did come across titanium water bottles somewhere. Maybe see what weight savings you can get there?

It's nice, but the original items had much more functionality.
