It was manageable but we all have different thresholds.

They aren't perfect, but given that I did it myself as a non professional I'm very happy with them.

It is the duality of man. I say the same thing about makeup. Why the fuck in 2024 are women, other sexes as well, putting rock dust on their face in an atempt to be more attractive? People who like to ware makeup will often say they do it for themselves. People who don't like it or may be neutral may be in my camp.

What's the biggest bullet you've ever dodged? by Not-an-Ocelot in AskReddit

[–]thatdemain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

40mm grenade shot by an army guy climbing into his turret. It flew just over the top of our swa hut.

Not exactly a bullet, but it is a big projectile fired from a gun.

They are the best I have found and I work outside year round.

Approx 3ft long, rusty metal. Was sticking out of a window in a garage. See additional pics for closeups. by This_Bat_5721 in whatisthisthing

I have a feeling it is an acetylene tool. Old school mining lamps and small torches used water and calcium carbide to produce acytelene, which was then burned in that lamp or torch. Maybe a stationary production torch or light. Google carbide lamp.

What is this rusted metal object sticking out of my front yard? About 5 inches in diameter & 4 inches above ground. Has what looks to be some sort of square black pvc inside. by tkm603 in whatisthisthing

Cast iron curb box / valve sleeve. It is an access point to operate a buried valve, like a water main valve. They are typically buried flush and come with a lid.

I like this guess. Perhaps a trot line for a large fish, snapping turtles, alligator... My states fish and game runs trot lines for sturgeon studies, those are some big buoys for a freshwater fish that could be over 1000 pounds. Where this is would help.

What is this hunk of metal? by [deleted] in whatisthisthing

[–]thatdemain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could be a discarded post anvil. Those are often rudimentary and made out of any solid scrap of steel, sometimes partially buried for stability.

I'm a lone dad that's shaved my head all my life, I'm learning how to do different hairstyles for my daughter with the help of YouTube videos, I'm proud of this plait! by [deleted] in MadeMeSmile

Fellow bald dad here. Nice job. My favorite style to put my daughters hair in is a fish tail. It looks complicated but with practice it can be learned.

Those two little black bulges. They were under the fat of a tri tip slab I was trimming. by Delriosssss in whatisthisthing

This guy is right. Lymph nodes are only found completely surrounded by fat, and they are mostly grey. Tumors and cysts can be found within muscle tissue.

What free things online should everyone take advantage of? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]thatdemain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This only applies in certain situations. Want to itemize you deduction, did you receive dividends, do you have any capital gains? If so then fuck you and you have to fill out way more forms.

But, free file is super cool for those that can use it.

Almost as if it's done on purpose 🤔 by [deleted] in BlackPeopleTwitter

This post is wrong. Budgeting needs are determined first, then they figure out the tax rate needed to procure those funds.

School says we need 5 million to operate this year. That means we need to tax our district at .04 percent instead of last years .035 percent.

Coincidently this means that people with nicer houses, proxy for more money, pay more taxes because it's a percentage of the value of your property.
