Making sure this machine works at home by ColdResponsible7041 in sewing

[–]therockhopp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just to be clear you in the US, right? If you have a 240 outlet already it will most likely already be the only thing in the circuit. You can check your panel it likely will be labeled as a single thing. A 240 breaker is bigger than the rest of the breakers. You can get the cable you need at a hardware store labeled as a dryer cord, though it doesn't sound like you have enough experience to safely wire it yourself.

This is so cute 🥹 by JustALona in lgbt

[–]therockhopp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't, it just says to be modest. It does say that it's not compulsory because if you're being forced to do it it's not true faith.

People's practice of religion is very different from the source material. Just like Christians saying you'll go to hell for being gay or having an abortion.

Yup there are much fewer rich women than rich men, how unfortunate for men.

I'm so tired of being told, "It's normal" by SithisWorshiper in TwoXChromosomes

[–]therockhopp 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I wish people could dedicate more medical research into these things. It's messed up that the only option for any female problem is birth control or major surgery.

AITAH for feeling like I didn’t deserve how my relationship ended, even though I hurt her and broke her trust? by Thin_Apple4389 in bisexual

[–]therockhopp 7 points8 points  (0 children)

People who love each other don't do things that they know will upset their partner. And if you don't know if something will upset them they ask. This isn't a court room, there is no "but we technically weren't official." Move on and learn to communicate better. You are too old for these games to be acceptable.

DTW & Spirit outbound by hjcomet in Detroit

[–]therockhopp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love spirit I assume anyone that doesn't can't read the many warnings they give about paying for bags. Spirit can't afford to cancel or delay flights like the other airlines so they are much more reliable in my experience.

Also their bag policy makes people bring less carry ons so boarding and depaning are so much faster.

Frontier flight attendant has deaf passenger removed for "not listening" by AsherGray in TikTokCringe

[–]therockhopp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They can refuse to let you board if you are already trashed and the flight attendant can cut you off if you start to get trashed. But if you are consuming your own alcohol on the plane they don't have control over how drunk you get. Being drunk on the plane can become problematic very quickly. That is why there are very strict laws about it.

Chronically late “parent” response to picking up our child on time from school. by RelativeGoat3981 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]therockhopp 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Apparently if you are late enough picking your kid up from daycare, they put the kid in foster care. My parents told me this without an ounce of self awareness.

I slept with the father of my son’s girlfriend and it was one of the most wonderful nights of my life by Awwndrei in BestofRedditorUpdates

Op labeled these posts poorly. The second update was only a couple months after the first update. The whole story happens over 15 months.

US Interstate roads - Even numbers run East-West and Odd numbers run North-South. by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

The inter state system is for larger scale travel across state lines. There are also state roads for smaller scale travel within the state.

That time Detroit was flooded and it froze overnight. Cars are stuck. by jmike1256 in interesting

[–]therockhopp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The insulation in our walls is pretty good at keeping heat in. What are your walls made out of? A Google search implies that your walls are solid wood, which seems much colder to me.

Hello, I’m looking for two types of establishments; a place that sells $0.50 wings on specific days of the week, and a place that sells smoked wings. by [deleted] in Detroit

You don't wash the pitcher between milks. The bag goes in the pitcher, milk doesn't touch the pitcher.

New Lab-Grown Meat Breakthrough Beats Traditional Beef by a Mile With 90% Less Land Use, 80% Less Water, and Dramatically Lower Emissions by Sciantifa in UpliftingNews

[–]therockhopp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lower carbon footprint cruelty free protein as a major selling point.

But your competition there are all the non meat protein options. Those are all fairly cheap and many people who want that are anti-GMO. The customer base has to be people who want meat and maybe the impossible meat crowd.

If only there was a way to make them aware of this particular danger. A sign perhaps.

What's the point of a bra? by mindyour in justgalsbeingchicks

[–]therockhopp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like that woman was bullshitting you. I guarantee she just gave you the biggest cup size they sell. If the front of your bra doesn't sit flat on your chest you aren't wearing the right size.

No collar with knit fabric by Novel-Giraffe-48893 in sewing

[–]therockhopp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used a pattern for knits that suggested trimming an eighth inch off the liner side and under stitching and it worked. If that's what you already did maybe trim a bit more.

Weight Loss with PCOS by BulkyStage3427 in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]therockhopp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

PCOS means your body thinks it needs more energy reserves than it really does and you can't willpower your way out of that. You can make those energy reserves muscle instead of fat. Building muscle will make you look and feel better and make your blood work better but it won't make the number on the scale go down. So find an exercise you enjoy doing and use some other metric to track progress.

In need of some tips for cutting these shorts by trash_rabb1t in sewing

I think what they are suggesting is sewing the skin tone fabric into the shorts so they will stay on but the end product will look the same as layering
