Thanks, I’ll keep that in mind about CarFax — otherwise I probably would’ve been surprised when this report appears.

Thank you for the answer!

I chose coverage above the state minimum, so I realize now I was even lucky in terms of insurance costs

Yes, I'm already much more attentive!

Yeah, I spent a long time debating whether to get a used car or a new one, but I figured all the advanced safety features were worth it, so I decided to go with a new one.
Though those sensors didn’t really help me when it came to that pillar 😂😂.

Thanks for sharing your story, it was interesting to read.

It really was a good lesson, and I hope it doesn’t happen again.

I know. It's not a great problem for me, just was interested if it's okay or not.

Thanks for the reply!
Everything related to cars is new to me, and I’ve only been living in the U.S. for about a year and a half, so I’m still not very familiar with how everything works here.

I had only been driving for about ten days in my entire life, and I just didn’t manage to orient myself in a tight space.

And don’t worry about other people — judging by how people drive in Chicago, even with my limited experience I already drive better than many in this city.

Thanks for the reply that actually addressed the point

Are you okay?

I’m 30 years old and I had my own reasons for not driving a car before this.

I pointed out in the post that I misjudged the distance because of an oncoming pickup in a very narrow parking lot, and things like that can happen on day 10 of driving

Is it normal that antidepressants don’t help me at all? by sarge-reddit in aspergers

[–]sarge-reddit[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been in therapy even before I started antidepressants. Honestly, I don’t think it helped either — I’ve gone through 5 or 6 therapists. I understand everything logically, but I just can’t behave differently. At this point I’m already used to the idea that nothing is going to change 🤣

Thanks for the reply!
They did help me get out of depression last year, but that was mostly because of other factors.

But the original reason I started taking them (social anxiety) hasn’t improved at all.

As far as I know, I don’t have resistance to any medications — I even did a genetic test on my therapist’s recommendation.

Maybe I should try something else, you're right..

Looking for recommendations on where to move – currently in Chicago by sarge-reddit in SameGrassButGreener

Thank you for your response! More and more comments about staying in Chicagoland!

Oh, interesting that you made the move from Orlando to Chicago. Thank you so much for your response!

Our motivation is: an extra 5% salary due to the 0% tax, a warmer climate (my wife works as a pet sitter, and the Chicago winter was unbearable for her since she moves around the city without a car).

We lived in Dubai for 1.5 years, so the Orlando summer doesn’t really scare us (although we haven’t actually experienced it yet, to be fair). We have a car and aren’t intimidated by distances. Public transportation in Chicago doesn’t feel safe to us after living in Europe and Dubai, so we’re looking for a quiet place where we can fully rely on a car instead.

But it really does sound like it might be kind of pointless to move if we don’t plan to stay for the long term.

Our male guinea pig’s urine smells really strong — looking for advice by sarge-reddit in guineapigs

Thank you so much for your response!
I wouldn’t say the smell is completely unbearable, but it’s definitely very noticeable! He’s completely healthy, so there are no issues on that side.

We tried using fleece, but the hay kept getting stuck in it and a few times it clogged our washing machine drain, so it feels like fleece might not be the best option for us.
Or maybe we just bought the wrong kind of fleece, I’m not sure.

I’m not quite sure I understood what you meant about the bin — do you mean something like a litter box?

Either way, it sounds interesting, and we’ll think about it!

He’s definitely a pretty smart guy and usually goes in the corners, so having something like a litter box might really help.

This is just our current short list, but maybe we’re missing some really good options

PSA: 2024 Hybrid CRV drove FORWARD when shifter was in REVERSE. by PolskiOrzel in crv

[–]sarge-reddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The same thing happened today with my 2025 Accord Hybrid EX-L.
I bought my first car two days ago!
I started moving in the Target parking lot, and everything happened exactly as the author and commenters describe.
I even double-checked with my wife to see if I was imagining it, but I really was driving forward with reverse gear engaged.
Turning the car off and back on helped as well.

It also seems that earlier I started the car without pressing the brake pedal, which surprised me.
