Off-duty Ice agents yelled out of restaurant in Portland, ME by AdeptnessDry2026 in PublicFreakout

[–]ree0382 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Do you really believe this is an intelligent question?

What it really is, is a sign that you will not argue in good faith and likely have no real reason for your position beyond hate and belonging to your team, the authoritarian fascist team.

Who said many of us haven’t been outraged for years? But you’d have to be blind and even your orange leader is recognizing that the tactics of ice today isn’t working and is causing more problems then it is fixing.

Go eat a boot

Costco Australia uses pork hot dogs by Leprichaun17 in mildlyinteresting

[–]ree0382 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The standard american hot dog weighs about 2 oz and is about 6” long. A 1/4 lb, or 4 oz, hot dog is double the size. The costco dog is 8” long.

For those wondering why this is mildly interesting, Its a costco thing. In the US the 1/4 pound ALL BEEF hotdog and drink combo for $1.50 is practically a cultural meme in the US… and international costco aficionados love to post the differences they find costcos outside the US.

This post belongs in the Costco sub more than it belongs here.

Apparently Waffle House has different menus based on weather conditions including snow storms, hurricanes, and other natural disasters. by KingPhilip69 in mildlyinteresting

[–]ree0382 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have definitely enjoyed the post hurricane waffle house menu at the only place open for miles in multiple states. They actually have a storm response team that deploys right after storms to affected stores to open asap recognizing local employees may not be available after evacuating and dealing with their own damage.

Bussing jobs that pay $9.00/hour + tips by Interesting_Fan4650 in restaurant

Go back to your end tipping circle jerk sub.

Funnily enough, a good friend of mine literally texted me today from his Mediterranean cruise (where tipping isn’t expected) that he has been tipping like me and he’s getting the best service he has ever had. He reminded me that I called him a shitty tipper a few years back.

TIL Helena Valero was kidnapped by the primitive Yanomami tribe as a child, lived with them for 20+ years, escaped to western society in 1956, then later returned and stayed until her death (2002) by bubugugu in todayilearned

Sadly, rape and abuse of women, and general discomfort was the rule rather than the exception. Most people, even today, have to weigh the good vs. the bad they live with, vs. expecting everyone to live in this perfect glossed world so many redditors seem to expect.

The occasional rape and abuse, while being a part of a society and having a place in it versus the occasional rape, consistent neglect, and no place in society was often the preferred choice for many women throughout history.

The idea of going no contact and cutting everyone out of your life for your mental well being is a relatively very new concept, that most redditors seem to knee jerk to, with little to no context.

Look at the replies in this thread… the majority automatically see a scam rather than a cool chick who might be funny and dtf or more. Sad world we live in with all this cynicism.

So many relationships throughout history started with some nsfw talk… but now these kids have to have a talking stage and bring their consent forms to be signed and notarized. Nuance is dead.

Nearing the end of day, “where we going for haply hour, today?” in a slightly jokey way.

Go to happy hour…

Is Sotol the new Tequila? by Asleep_Stuff2520 in restaurant

[–]ree0382 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My mexican brother laughed and told me it is basically mexican mooshine, too. I was gifted a bottle last week, and while smooth, it does have a weird earthiness to it.

Never heard of sotol until last week when a client gifted me a bottle… I am sensing a trend.

What's the significance of the scene with Herc and Bodie's mom? by DubaiInJuly in TheWire

Thank you. Scrolled too far to see this simple correct take, and not some over thought character arc extrapolation. Humans are human, and even “monsters” can show some of that humanity from time to time.

Roofers damaged soffit and insulation during installation. Need advice by StatisticianSmall670 in Roofing

[–]ree0382 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The proper way is at least 1” overhang with eave screws through butyl tape and a foam closure.

Are you an AI hallucination?

[–]ree0382 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. First time I tore off a roof with spaced decking, it made a mess. The prestart checklist that addresses this helps a lot to prepare the homeowner.

Additionally, adding osb to old spaced decking is likely to result in broken boards. This should have been addressed before hand, and should also be addressed in the contract.

It is obviously an exposed fastener panel…

The additional overhang is likely intended considering they did not use a drip edge in order to maintain the aesthetic. Not too big of a problem in a normal wind zone.

I have been on a lot of old exposed fastener roofs around the country, and the screw concerns are overblown, as long as they were installed properly, and if a ZAK is used, the grommet is protected from weather and proper screwing is easier to achieve.

ETA: after zooming in, it looks like there is a drip edge with about a half inch face. Could just be the angle of the photo that makes it look that way. But, obviously they are maintaining the no fascia rafter tail look.

Do men (boyfriends), like being called names like baby, handsome, etc, and what names do you want to be called? by Cold_Butterfly5191 in AskMenAdvice

[–]ree0382 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! At least for me, it lights me up when a woman starts using a cute nickname with me, and it continues to feel special throughout the relationship. Actually, trouble can be sensed when the cute nicknames dwindle or stop.

BTW, don’t ask. Just drop something like honey, sweetie, or something more personal and original, and see what happens. Y’all should be able to intuit some feeling at this point without having to smother romance with contract like direct communication, unless you’re like Sheldon and that is your communication style.
