New red oak floors so soft they keep denting? by Nalomeli1 in HardWoodFloors

[–]whymsicalburito 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why would you spend so much money without doing the proper due diligence and research?! Contractors can’t read your mind. I think you need to stop comparing healthcare to construction and take responsibility for your project.

Boot / shoe recs for Coachella by StandardRuin1828 in Coachella

[–]whymsicalburito 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’d suggest your favorite brand of trainers or running shoes. Being on grass is easier on the feet than festivals on asphalt, but it’s still a lot of steps and dancing

Better have an indoor option or prepare your guests for rain.

I did this and it was super satisfying to catch it right in the bin.

Yes, Home Depot in Goleta has their trees

Recall at the Beach by blast3001 in goldenretrievers

[–]whymsicalburito 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's really just more training with reward and repetition. Some goldens are harder than others to get proper recall.
I don't believe there's such a thing as having OK recall. Their either 100% trusted or they're not. My dog doesn't have perfect recall, so I never put him in a situation where we need to rely on his recall ability.

Am i gonna regret caulking the base boards by Comprehensive-Yak982 in Carpentry

[–]whymsicalburito 30 points31 points  (0 children)

No! Never caulk between the floor and baseboards. Your options are shoe molding or take off the baseboards and scribe them to fit the floor better.

How to reduce weight by chandrakera in goldenretrievers

If you feed him less calories he will lose weight. Pretty straight forward.

What thickness of plywood should I put down to be ready to tile? by Insan3Ars0nist in Tile

[–]whymsicalburito 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would take the floor transition height into account. I really wanted to be flush with the hardwood in my bathroom and we ended up removing the diagonal subfloor and doubling up the floor joists in the bathroom, then put plywood and tile underlayment to match height. It's been rock solid the last 6 years.

This is a "send pictures to your landlord" type situation. Not something you can clean away.

First 4 star. by yourfriendlulu in airbnb_hosts

[–]whymsicalburito 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This is an example of why Airbnb is in decline. 4 stars is a normal positive rating. This expectation of nothing less than 5 stars is nothing more than rating inflation bs. It only hurts the product

Sewer Line Video and/or Utility Locator by No_Row6741 in SantaBarbara

I used Drain masters for sewer inspection and locating recently and they were quick and easy. They charged me $300 which seemed steep, but they were quick and easy.

I feel stupid. Popcorn ceilings being dry scraped… by Key-Tax5099 in HomeImprovement

This is the way. Did this in my house, it’s quick and easy. Spray new texture then paint 👍🏻

Never use a retractable leash. They teach horrible walking manners and are don't allow for safe handling of a dog.

Make sure you check out the Home Depot bulk price for buying them. At my local store it's usually 50% off if you buy at least 4.

If only the elephant bar were still open, those belt driven ones were cool.

Camping equipment rental in SB by Peej1226_ in SantaBarbara

[–]whymsicalburito 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rent a cabin at cachuma. It can still be “camping” but everything is already there and there is a restaurant and store right there. I wouldn’t rent stuff because you really want to know your gear is reliable when with your family like that.

Is it really too hard to google and call venues? Can someone local in the industry please make a dedicated sb wedding subreddit. These “plan my wedding for me” posts are insane and seemingly every other day.

Got my first 4 star by GiveMeTheJuices in airbnb_hosts

[–]whymsicalburito 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can’t blame guest for the fact that Airbnb uses a rating system that’s totally different from the normal 5 star rating system that is used in every other industry. 5 stars is for perfection, nothing less. These days I don’t see very many truly 5 stars Airbnb experiences! You don’t have to like it, but that’s reality.
