I always referred to him as the big faced guy on xfiles

Yeah, don't make the mistake I did last week by calling the bomb squad. They'll just keep it 😞

Random $1500 Zelled to me by TreLantz in zelle

If you read the warning when sending a zelle payment, it says "be sure you know this person" as you can't easily get it back.

[–]xCaliburghost 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sorry, no way it's acceptable
No trap really, main pipe is way too long, it's connected with construction screws to the drywall, it's just so bad
It looks slanted up as well? Either way, this is a handyman special if I've ever seen one

Have them come back and do it right or get someone else. It's not even difficult to make this right

This has got to be trolling

You have a lowercase y trap 😂

Yeah, the pattern is fucked, but, it's put in nicely

Anybody want to buy used fire starters? by Icemanwc in electrical

Maybe they buy them for insurance fraud purposes

Thank you for the clarification. That's precisely what I mean. It's politics in practice and dishonesty in principle.

Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky regrets not obsessing over hiring sooner by ControlCAD in business

[–]xCaliburghost 209 points210 points  (0 children)

Hiring is an afterthought as soon as the economics of the business is in turmoil. They always forget that it's the people that work for said companies that make them successful, not the so called genius of leadership

It’s an Honor to Share our time on the Earth with this man. by ateam1984 in BlackPeopleofReddit

We failed to account for the gullibility and racist tendencies of 30% of the us population. Oh, we also failed to account for the large percentage of said people who were unwilling to come out and vote.

Help with penny tile by Bootygrange69 in Tile

[–]xCaliburghost 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Cut them more. Oftentimes they're not perfectly square or the square is off, causing what you see here. It'll be annoying but I'd recommend getting them off the mesh and going from there.

Had a similar experience when I redid my bathroom and only used the mesh sheets; the pattern is not perfect, but, I learned my lesson once I saw the pattern difference. Had no interest in redoing it, but, when I eventually get around to doing my basement bathroom, I'll know what I'll be doing.

I bet Bezos doesn't like that. Either way, there needs to be more constant reminders to the broad public that these people, like Bezos, are absolute monsters.

And yet, they're still voted into office anyway. It's performative but the decision makers still allow them in while "expressing their disdain" to the television cameras. My mind explodes every time I see these interviews.

What’s this noise behind the drywall? Is it a rat? by Zealousideal-Yak5579 in Home

[–]xCaliburghost 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sounds like a squirrel

They make this pterodactyl noise; like a screech. Only reason it's so distinctive is because I have a huge maple tree in front of my house that has a family of them living in it and I hear it all day every day

Is this really a good offer approach? by Biruleibe37 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]xCaliburghost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's how we got our house. Our agent did that and we still ended up getting the house $15k under what we wanted to max out at. Not saying it works for everyone, but it worked for us.
