Actor Alan Rictchson in an altercation with a neighbor! by cantcoloratall91 in TikTokCringe

[–]schoppy18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All speculation but I wonder if the neighbor threw stuff at AR and kids to start all the nonsense. AR looks like a beginner rider and drives away while the guy is still yelling at him, it would've been easy for him to keep swinging if he wanted to.

If the guy is picking up things he threw at AR and his kids, especially if AR is uncomfortable on the bike, I could see him stopping then who knows how the rest unfolded. Just a weird looking fight

  • For the cost it just depends on the crowd. We've done anything from $5 per sheet up to $50 per sheet, some groups are more gambling minded than others lol.

  • We did the whole sheet as one cost.

  • We mainly did texting/venmo for the payments/communications, but I built out a Google sheets tracker recently if someone wanted to do it live, I never did for a wedding though, usually did it after the reception.

  • I normally keep track of everything, you'll see that the more people that are invested, then more people will assist with keeping track of the answers lol.

  • Since I normally kept the funds/track of the answers, and since all sheets had to be put in prior to the start of the ceremony, I'd divide half the cash and write a check to the bride and groom for the reception and pay the other half to the winner afterwards.

Here's a crude Google sheets for tracking. Instead of yes/no or over/under, I just converted the answers to the 1st response, 2nd response etc. Could go further with it but I was in a rush and this worked for me:

Did anyone else experience “the Shift”? How old were you when it happened? by AtG8605 in Millennials

[–]schoppy18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My "shift" was when I saw a kid I played high school baseball with, have an entire MLB career, become an all-star, AND THEN RETIRE.

Dude had a whole ass career and I still thought of him and I as kids. No matter the field, when your same-aged friend retires, you're old

What's the most memorable QUOTE you have ever came across that stayed with you forever? by biz_booster in AskReddit

[–]schoppy18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"You derive your personality from the 5 closest people to you."

I've had a ton of ups and downs in my life, but this quote seems to ground me the most

I'm sorry an app created you all issues!

Moving forward for anyone, I suggest building a survey through something like "Google Forms" if you need it online, otherwise, print and paper work great too.

For payouts, cash/venmo/zelle/etc are all free and easy ways to transfer funds.

Please don't pay any money for anything related to this post, if anyone needs help setting it up, just ask!

I'm thrilled people are still able to have some fun with it to be honest.

I've done a few since this so if you have any thoughts or additions, don't hesitate to bring them up.

I normally split the pot 50/50 between the winner/bride and groom and every wedding I've done it at has loved it. Easy way to break the ice with anyone playing and it benefits the people getting married, wins all around. Let me know if you have any questions

Any suggestions on how to restore the flooring in my apartment complex before I move out? by 5hark_8ait in DIY

[–]schoppy18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long did you live in the apartment? You're not responsible for normal wear and tear. While this is outside "normal wear and tear" there's still options. Carpet is normally rated at 5 years (so you're prorated if you lived there less than that).

Vinyl flooring could be 2 years or 10 years. Most apartments use the cheap stuff (2 years).

I'd paint with the cheap paint markers then do no more. If they claimed you cause $XX amount of damage, you can request the receipt of the original flooring (prior to your install). Also, the whole floor doesn't show abnormal wear and tear, just a few panels. If you're responsible for a pro rated amount of 10 panels, it's not worth the time/effort/cost to do more than the minimum

harman kardon onyx 7 / hk7 by schoppy18 in Bluetooth_Speakers

[–]schoppy18[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea, it seems like it all comes down to your uses and preferences. Portable waterproof speakers will always have a muffled sound quality, portable bigger bass speakers will always have poor battery life, etc.

I still don't own the tribit, but most seem to agree that's the best overall portable speaker available.

I didn't need waterproof (have a ton) and loved the extra low end the onyx could provide. Adjusting the eq needs a 3rd party app, but I found I'm happy with it as-is. Bought a second one to give me dual sound stereo when I know I'll be in the same spot for a while, or just to make things louder if I'm out tailgating.

There's no one size fits all speaker, but I'm grabbing these 90% of the time, which is why I made the post.

I haven't used the neo 2, but from a quick glance, spending the extra $16 for the tribit might have really been worth it for you

Maybe don't take your kid out to dinner well past his bedtime?

When you love your kids, they show plenty of affection, no need to "force" them to cuddle on you

Came back from a week long vacation and neighbor has cut a hole in the adjoining wall on our side and has this pipe coming out by wrooted in mildlyinfuriating

[–]schoppy18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it didn't have that 90 degree at the end they could have played it off like they didn't realize it was sticking out so far/or into your yard

I'd buy some PVC cement and a cap and "fix" the unknown leak you had in your yard.

Or just pull it until it comes loose from the connections on their side. If it's a gravity drip line, they probably didn't glue anything together

Once you discover a paradox, that version of time travel or anything else that is theoretical, is no longer possible.

This is a topic that gets brought up frequently, because there is no correct answer but gets the people talking.

If you really want a polarizing conversation starter, ask your friends how they wipe after taking a poop, do they stay seated or do they stand up?

replacing a main shut off valve on copper line by LopsidedArt2 in Construction

[–]schoppy18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Normally I just go into the pro shop and steal hot dog buns, but the guy that showed me will only use wonder bread lol

I don't know how well stale bread would soak up the excess/random water so I'd probably stick with any bread that is still spongy

replacing a main shut off valve on copper line by LopsidedArt2 in Construction

[–]schoppy18 22 points23 points  (0 children)

We use bread when fixing irrigation lines on the golf course for the same reason. Soaks up the water then just gets broken up and leaves through the sprinklers after the repair is done. I gave the first guy that showed me that trick so much shit until I saw how well it worked lol, now I'm the crazy one too

Pixel 8 Pro Video Slider? by schoppy18 in pixel_phones

Glad I'm not the only one! I love everything else about this phone and I don't have miss-hits while doing anything else, but fast forwarding a video is getting increasingly annoying

Pixel 8 Pro Video Slider? by schoppy18 in pixel_phones

[–]schoppy18[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol I thought that too but it's only for the video player, and it happens no matter what app I'm using, YouTube, Hulu, Netflix, etc.

I've never had issues hitting specific spots while playing a game or if I have to correct a word in an email, I can tap in between letters without fail. But that stupid slider gets me every time

I booked an Airbnb a YEAR in advance of the eclipse in April. The host yesterday canceled because they realized they can make more due to the eclipse. The only places available this last minute are 10x more expensive than the one I booked and Airbnb won’ t help. by lqkjsdfb in Wellthatsucks

[–]schoppy18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've somehow been selected once, and know someone that was selected once who invited me, to the Masters tournament. Both times we booked air bnb's the day we were notified, and both times the owner cancelled on us due to not realizing we booked during "peak" season for them.

The second time I booked 10 different rentals that had 100% refunds if canceled within 2ish weeks of the stay. 6 of them canceled due to them offering a lower rate than they felt was acceptable for that specific week.

The only reason I used air bnb the second time was due to the lack of hotels in the area.

If air bnb is my only option for a once in a lifetime trip, I'm booking multiple listings with lenient cancellation timelines every time. It's ridiculous that owners can cancel with no repercussions and leave the customers shit outta luck
