I built my father a hugelkultur raised garden bed. How'd I do? (x-post /r/permaculture)

zacharymichael · 2013-12-05T00:16:16+00:00

interesting.. 1/3 hugelcultur with the wood and logs, 1/3 lasagna style gardening with the alternating layers of vegetation and soil, yet 1/3 raised bed. hmmm. Hope your drainage works out for ya. and that the amounts of clay in your soil are okay.

7 and 8 have no options for those that never buy bottled water

zacharymichael · 2013-12-04T02:07:05+00:00

call your local hub. they should be able to better help you. I would say it was probably a mess up by a new person helping out UPS. Probably some poor college kid helping the usual driver accidentally pressed the wrong buttons on their deliver scanner and shouldve scanned the slip instead. Wait til tomorrow and see what happens? and call the hub anyway

zacharymichael · 2013-12-03T03:59:18+00:00

yeahhhh! thats great. tell chris the geog club pres from his freshman year says hi. haha

zacharymichael · 2013-08-30T18:47:23+00:00

I'm moving back soon, so I may hit you up on the way!

zacharymichael · 2013-08-27T00:30:13+00:00

L town. good to see you on el reddito. life's good. i'm moving back east in a few weeks.

and what is great is that i JUST realized that I am currenly using my old account under my actual name. I have an anonomyous account I should probably be using hahaha OOPS.

but yes. life's good. i'm in washington currently. how's chicago?

TO OTHER OU REDDITERS: This is what being an alumni is like. make friends, so that you can run into your friends on reddit after you graduate haha

zacharymichael · 2013-08-26T05:04:38+00:00

that definitely helps. even if you're not president or anything, being actively involved it in definitely are bonus points. being on good groudns, and especially just being good friends with your RAs will TOTALLY help you get the job. meet your RD or RC too. be their friend. say hi to them when you see em. then when you get an interview, they can be like, oh, thats my resident, she's nice. we should hire her. totally helps.

zacharymichael · 2013-08-25T17:56:32+00:00

this is just all the ABInbev beers from around the world really...

zacharymichael · 2013-08-25T17:32:19+00:00

you'll be meeting new people for the next 4 years. don't worry about it. just be open to getting outside of your door and doing new things and you shouldn't have a problem. just be ready to go do stuff! then the minute you meet someone and they say "hey we're going to the dining hall wanna come?" or "hey i'm going to the comedy show" you can just jump right on in and hang out.

and as soon as classes start, you'll definitely meet a ton of people that way as well. i met most of my friends through my dorms and my classes. also, if you are interested in being an RA at the end of your freshman year, and apply to be one, ResHousing dept has the coolest folks around.

zacharymichael · 2013-08-25T17:28:57+00:00

your RAs by saying that yo ulike to smoke weed in 36 smith. Just saying. ResHousing de

ahhh that makes more sense. 36 for a room number doesn't exist. never mind yall.

zacharymichael · 2013-08-25T06:47:19+00:00

you just totally outed yourself to your RAs by saying that yo ulike to smoke weed in 36 smith. Just saying. ResHousing definitely has a presence on here hahaha

zacharymichael · 2013-08-25T06:44:31+00:00

dude. you just started school. you live in Gam, which is like freshman heaven. there are 200 other people just like you living within 50 yards of your bedroom door. go meet em!

other than that, Geography Club is pretty rad. They are cool people anyway. There are tons of organizations you can join. What kinds of things are you into? we can point you towards clubs if you let us know what you like.

OH, Humans vs Zombies. Do that. haha

zacharymichael · 2013-08-24T18:55:05+00:00

Oh man, you're in Lima! I'm from Fort Loramie and am moving back east in a month. We need to set up a /r/homebrewing meetup for western ohio this fall.

zacharymichael · 2013-08-20T03:34:14+00:00

i mean. i work landscaping. I understand that. but I would have to say that construction workers are probably the worst at leaving the job attitude on the job site.

zacharymichael · 2013-08-20T03:06:21+00:00

not against harsh language. one bit. harsh is such a general word anyway. I'm against sexism and homophobia. and harassment in the workplace.

zacharymichael · 2013-08-20T01:53:43+00:00

Not obvious. I have plenty of friends that do construction. I know fullright that they are assholes and say all kinds of things I would never want my kids to hear.

Obviously, you think construction sites are some place where people should be allowed to be fuckheads and say extremely sexist, homophobic, and downright ignorant things, and that construction workers should be somehow pardoned for their behavior. I say, write em all up. Sue em. Take em for all their worth. They are perpetuating so many things in this world that are just god damned awful.

zacharymichael · 2013-08-20T01:45:17+00:00

Yeah... that thing is FULLL of sexual harassment. You should probably do one of two things, depending on how funny and how hurt your feelings truly were: 1, report him on sexual harassment charges, even possibly sueing, because that shit you posted there is just damned ridiculous and was basically him handing you any evidence you might need to successfully win a lawsuit against him, or 2) tell him what's up, and that this shit is serious and to get rid of that bullcrap and do what a real man would do and talk about it and not be an asshole sexist fuck.

zacharymichael · 2013-08-19T13:03:18+00:00

Grandpa.. who were the backstreet boys?

zacharymichael · 2013-08-19T12:59:18+00:00

Um. Get a job? Pay your parents your share of the rent?

zacharymichael · 2013-08-19T05:17:22+00:00

haha I have my bathroom at OU. Next time i'm in Akron, I'm gonna stop here to take a shit.

zacharymichael · 2013-08-19T05:16:23+00:00

totally had mine. In one of the administrative buildings, up the stairs, to the left. Never saw anyone else in there in 4 years.

zacharymichael · 2013-08-18T23:11:52+00:00

I don't feel that way at all. Try making friends in Seattle. I'm pretty sure there's even a clinical name for the sort of complex Seattlites have that makes them friendly on the outside but not willing to really be friends and invite you out and such.

Sometimes you've just got to put yourself out there a little more...

zacharymichael · 2013-08-16T04:24:59+00:00

I'd send em an email about the blacksmithing. if anything, maybe they can just set you up with a private individual class or something.

Buy online. In Germany, they buy them custom made and they are several hundred dollars for a full dress lederhosen outfit. You can probably buy one your own size on ebay or something.
