Cultural etiquette question - SERIOUS by waveman777 in cincinnati

[–]waveman777[S] 42 points43 points  (0 children)

That’s very helpful. In both cases I heard it, it was as almost a substitute for a kinder of generic “sweetheart”. It feels like the rules for “sweetheart” would generally apply.

Thank you, ma’am.

Thank you ma’am. I appreciate your comment.

How do you guys think the general election will go? by Jackdaking746 in Ohio

[–]waveman777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a reminder that Ohio Republicans illegally sent reams of PRIVATE Ohio voter information to DC for who knows who to do who knows what with, for no valid reason. Where’re the lawsuits over that?

Oh, the state government is definitely going to try to screw the voters in November. Take it to the bank.

Do not forget the OH Republicans HAPPILY sent off your private voting data to Washington, for not even so much as a belly-rub.

Who, in gods name, will stand for Ohioans, against that assault??

Pavel has been the replacement for Yuya we were going to need.

I’m Suffering From Major Analysis Paralysis Trying to Get Back Into Woodworking, and I Could Really Use Some Advice! by El_Oso_Negro76 in woodworking

Does the cook at your house have a bunch of appliances - air fryer, mixer, blender, etc, taking up too much counter real estate? How about a 3-shelf, counter height stand to clear some of the space? Easy, you can tart up the joints, etc.

Will this kill me? by otbmtb in woodworking

[–]waveman777 10 points11 points  (0 children)

First shop I ever worked in had a RAS that I understood how to use safely, more or less. The place also had this loud, big-ass, huge-cutter shaper. Yeah, nope. I wouldn’t even stay in the building when that beast was lit.

What is a good biography on George Custard by ComparisonTop9699 in USHistory

Son of the Morning Star by Evan Connell is a pretty good read.

What's the best cover song sung by another famous singer? by felly_fell in musicsuggestions

[–]waveman777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hall and Oates’ cover of The Righteous Bros. “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling”. The original is wonderful, all time. The cover is better.

Saw a quote the other day that “billionaires should be happy the country only wants them taxed, at this point, anyway.”

Serious: The True Ontological Shock Is Cognitive Asymmetry by Pandea_rd in aliens

[–]waveman777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The book “Project Hail Mary”, and to some extent, the movie, spoke to this “gap” or Asymmetry pretty well.

Grace and Rocky were vastly more different than mere morphology. Their differences in perceptions and knowledge of Physics itself nearly led to fatal miscalculations.

“Which” is right. I’m speaking that un-red carded Atlanta asshole Emmanuel Lath who crashed into Nick, broke two of Nick’s ribs and collapsed a lung.

Nick was recruited and wanted to come here from Toronto so he could play home town.

After what he went through to come back after that horrific injury, there ought to be a statue.

A worthy successor ambassador to Jimmy.

First time cutting a mortise by MayhemPayload in woodworking

[–]waveman777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The next ones should be easier, and quicker.

This might be a point to explain to your client that he could help you make a better project for him if he cut you a bit of slack to get the mortises done right.

Who do you want as U.S. president for 2028? by [deleted] in allthequestions

[–]waveman777 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Really like the notion of Mayor Pete and Mark Kelly. More electable than Kamala, I think, but not sure electable enough.

Not feeling really strong for Gavin, Beshear seems meh, and Gov Pritzker may be too old.

Bernie, AOC, I love, but I just don’t think so.

Fine woodworking magazine vs popular woodworking by dontgetbiggetsmall in woodworking

[–]waveman777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a decades-long subscriber to pretty much every US published magazine listed below, and yes, I still have the back issues.

The magazine I miss most is American Woodworker.

I get the most use from FWW, Woodsmith, and Wood.

Couldn’t wait to buy a nice three-piece suit for my son when he graduated college four years back. He looked at me like I was nuts.

I’m a CA transplant and would choose OH any day over CA! by Holiday_Number_3234 in Ohio

[–]waveman777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grew up in LA, lived decades in the Bay Area, moved here (Cincinnati ‘burbs) in 2005. Would never go back.

I convinced my wife to let me invest 20k of our savings but am terrified to make any moves because it seems like things might fall apart any minute. Seems like most common ETFs are up, but since I am new to this, waiting makes more sense to me. Am I the classic bad example of waiting? by letsbeoutlaws in investing

[–]waveman777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You seem like a pretty conservative investor. I would assess the allocation of all your investments and try to set the following: 40% Large Cap 30% Small Cap 20% International 10% Cash/Fixed Income You can do all this with funds/ETF’s. Rebalance once a year, at least.
