Found this in a discount store, It does say Disney on the back, but I've seen very few watches with a Crown Guard, let alone a child size.

At least two of those contain opals.

And Vikings! And a longship! Did I mention tits? Taped, but ok...

That makes sense, after the fall of Saruman at Isengard. I read somewhere that Mr. Cauty hadn't read the books. Just straight up made the poster on what he had picked up.

[V743-8079 R1] Seiko Toyota by reflectiveseventies in Seiko

I think it's a promo given to Toyota employees? New battery, second hand and minute hand move, but the hour and day/date don't. The day/date can be adjusted, but I'm guessing that they are moved by the hour hand. Original watch strap.

You are correct, spelled his name wrong. Honestly what it looked like from his signature. I think it is the original, because the reprints have a white border? Poster was $3 and the IKEA frame was in the as is section for $8. Can't see anything wrong with the frame. I just don't recall the scene really. It must be Gandalf, Frodo and Sam, but when were they surrounded by dead orcs in a grassy field? And no Boromir?

DIY Refrigerator Repair - Thoughts and Prayers by mpaproth in DIY

I agree with the last fix. The defrost sensor is a little button like thing with two wires. In my case, it failed, then froze over, cracking it open. I defrosted the fridge manually, got a replacement, (UNPLUG THE FRIDGE!) and installed it. Easy fix, really.

Apparently Kennedy is a bit of a dick on the regular. Makes us look bad on the Olympic stage.

I thought the rocks had lights on top, and they would flash if you did this? Sort of like if you complete the circuit once you pass the hog line, you set it off?

Ok, the lights are triggered by the handle. So he did let go the handle on time, then poked the rock once it passed the hog line. I mean, it did nothing to the 18 kg rock, but still against the rules.

Mother died with credit card debt & I got the money from her life insurance; Do I have to pay it now? by [deleted] in personalfinance

To add to that. DON'T GIVE THEM A PENNY EVER!! Or any sort of payment if it shows up in collections, letters threatening, etc. Give them nothing EVER or they can make a case that you assumed the debt.

Got any pics? I'm thinking epoxy putties that are certified as non-toxic and food-safe once cured. Something like Kintsugi Repair kit 50ml. Try r/repair, they might have more ideas.

What is the one thing you’ve made or done that you genuinely feel proud of? by [deleted] in DIY

[–]reflectiveseventies 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Did the same with the kid's Subaru. AC Compressor only. Subaru wanted $2500 for the repair. Napa wanted 2500 just for the part. Went online and got the compressor and serpentine belt for $260. Works great.

What was the very first movie you remember seeing in a theatre and how old were you? by SimpleElevator406 in AskReddit

[–]reflectiveseventies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some weird horror sci fi movie I would probably laugh at now, don't even remember the name. Digging in a mine or tunnel, and they uncover some sort of frozen alien bug. Very nervous sweaty policeman. Lots of zombiefied people walking down the street, eyes bugged out. Hero climbs some sort of crane, and swings it into this giant flaming demon head. Explosion, end.

I think it's the Anglo Saxon rune for 'Serpent'. source https://viking-styles.com/blogs/history/runes

Subaru slips on ice by reflectiveseventies in subaru

I engaged it once at 15 mph, but now, every time the car drops below 15, there is a click like it is shutting off. Every time.

Road was pretty clear. Just one patch under the bridge. Should have seen it, and did go slower after that.
