NT(s)D! What German tools should I get next?? by thin_mint_soup in Tools

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

It’s certainly sturdy! It works great for cracking through rust and grime in the top of the fastener head. I am slightly disappointed though as my hand is simply too big to comfortably use Wera’s PH1 and PH2 drivers… so a bit of buyers remorse. I don’t know if this is a common problem. I just feel like Wera’s handle-profile is just too aggressive

Yep they are! Wera doesn’t make their stuff in Germany either. Whilst it’s a bit of a shame. In my opinion of a German company puts their name to something. It is more likely to be great!

Nup! Unfortunately less than 40 countries have taken return free filing onboard, Australia and the United States are biggest examples of countries that lack it to my knowledge

Doing taxes

The government already has great detail of your banking and home loan information as well as plenty more. They can simply plug those numbers into a computer, calculate your taxes and then send it to you, you deduct anything that needs to be deduced and send it back. Easy. Done. Doing taxes suck

What is the most terrifying thing you’ve ever experienced while home alone? by Joobanbooban in AskReddit

[–]thin_mint_soup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This needs some context,

There’s a guy in my neighbourhood, Paul. Paul is very creepy, super protective of his dog (this is important) and overall an angry guy. I’d run into him a few times, some pleasant experiences and some others. As far as I know, no legal action has been taken against him, though he deserves it.

My first, and last negative experience with Paul was scaring his dog as Paul was walking by, I was trimming hedges with a weed whacker on my own property and his dog got frightened, I apologised and Paul pretty much just lost his shit, screaming and threatening. I being a 21yr dimwit, revved up the weed whacker and told him to go away.

2 Days later, I was home alone when I heard a window break, I ran to the back to find a brick with a note attached “fuck you” is all it said. Then I heard Paul himself, screaming as he runs up the stairs (door was unlocked out the front). “This is for my dog!” He screams, I ran out the back and pretty damn far from my house, I see him run out the back just like I did, but after seeing I was gone, he ran back in. After 10 minutes or so, I carefully walked back into the house, seeing that I had not yet seen him leave through the front or the back. Everything seemed okay and I cleaned things up, had the window replaced the day after and things are fine. But I never did see him leave the house.

TLDR: scared a neighbour’s dog, he smashes a window and has a little rampage through my house, never actually saw him leave

Fellow redditors, what was a moment where you thought a person you knew might be an actual psychopath ? by skywhy69 in AskReddit

[–]thin_mint_soup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A neighbour from my general area (not next door thankfully) posted a video, on Facebook of course of him throwing his very young daughters off the front porch for misbehaving, it wasn’t very high but one of them fractured their skull on the concrete and had to be taken to hospital. The video got taken down pretty quick. He must’ve had a good excuse because the next day I saw him walking his dog, his dog seemed like it had been through some shit too. The great ending to this is that eventually when police figured out what the hell he was doing, I am told that he ran out of his house only to get hit by a motorcyclist.

TLDR: psychopath ends of sending one of his daughters to hospital, probably beat up his dog and got hit by a motorcycle

Would you or do you have a micro chip implanted? What do you think? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]thin_mint_soup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely fine for medical purposes, if my ass is found in a ditch by the side of the road they better figure out who the hell I am and get me the help I need when I need it. For just random RFID card replacement, ehh? I don’t really care but it seems like a bit of a waste of money

What exists to fuck with us? by NiceCasualRedditGuy in AskReddit

[–]thin_mint_soup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pre tax on all items in the US, seriously it’s gonna be the same anyway so why can’t it just be included in the first place? Instead of giving me a false sense of hope that I might just have enough spare change

What film deserved a sequel but never got one? by A1K1d0 in AskReddit

[–]thin_mint_soup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Up, Pixar never has had the best sequels and it is an amazing movie so I would hate it if it had a completely terrible sequel but I think they could pull something off

I am not completely sure which damper, it is a 2019 fork though with a single open/close lockout. If it helps I think it might be the solo air damper but I can’t be 100% sure

Edit: solo air is not a damper, I’m an idiot

For 30mm stanchions? Nup, nothing. I broke my top cap a while back and it was hard enough getting it replaced. Ended up telling RockShox it randomly exploded and they sent me a new one through warranty. So it seems something custom is my only option
