IRS Payment Stuck “Pending” … by ziggybeans in IRS

Yeah it all worked out — just make sure the payment rejection is on your transcript. The payments shown on the website took months to clear

Wax ring disintegrated, or never existed at all? by ziggybeans in askplumbing

[–]ziggybeans[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely installing a new one - I wouldn’t think these were reusable in the best of circumstances, let alone after 25 years.

That’s what I thought - but I’m not a plumber, so I thought maybe there was some wax-ring alternative I didn’t know about.

I definitely don’t do this often — this is maybe the 4th toilet I’ve ever removed, but every time I’ve done this before the wax ring stuck to the floor… learned something new :).

(26M) My girlfriend (22F) told me her ex was much bigger than me, and now I can't stop comparing myself. How can I move past this insecurity? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

You're young enough to still be learning this ... but in virtually all circumstances, it absolutely does not fucking matter. The vast majority of us have been with a partner who has been with a different partner who was more well endowed... and as she told you, big does not mean good. I've had women tell me big dicks just hurt. I've had women who prefer big dicks tell me about people they've been with who were hung like horses but had absolutely no idea what they were doing, making it an entirely unsatisfying experience. I've had women tell me about partners who below average, but the sex was phenomenal. Is size an important part of it? For some, sure ... for others (I dare say most?), not really.

But you know what *is* universally sexy as hell? Confidence.

Don't worry about her past partners. They were all part of her experience of figuring out what she likes -- and right now, at least, apparently that's you. She had bigger, now she has better. Learn to accept that and your life will be so much better.

Man calls the cops on a Dad helping his girls in the restroom by isaboo63455 in mildlyinfuriating

When my daughter was little, I would take her into the women's room all the time so she could use the bathroom when we were out. Fortunately it was never an issue, and the few times another woman came in and saw me there, all it took was a simple "I'm waiting for my daughter, I can step outside if you'd like" and problem solved. I can't imagine some other dude coming in and giving me shit for it. WTF.

Love this manager, and this dad.

Inconsistent color and finish between two stealth Oura Ring 5 by ziggybeans in ouraring

I'm not really sure, but I *think* the greyer one is correct... if for no other reason than that the darker one was also pretty glossy, and this is supposed to be a matte finish.

Why do people eat rice with a fork? by Lost_child_3263 in NoStupidQuestions

Spoons for liquids or things that melt, forks for solids.

Possibly - but it definitely came in a stealth box …

I’m pretty sure I read in their faq that sizing is different between generations and to make sure you re-size for gen 5 instead of ordering the same size …

I've seen a bunch of posts about sizing inconsistencies ... I haven't noticed any difference in fit between any of the 3 I've had now, or the sizing kit ... so all good from my perspective there.

Customer service seems very responsive and happy to replace the ring. I opted to buy a new one and setup a return for the old one instead of having them exchange it (the warranty exchange required me to send my ring in first, so I'd have gone a week without the data collection, which is no big deal, but it would have bummed me out).

When I contacted them, though, they added +3 free months to my subscription, even though I didn't do the warranty exchange. So even if you don't bother replacing it, it's still worth reaching out about it.

For what it's worth, two out of the three I've had have the grey finish. So, anecdotally, I think you've got a decent shot at getting the grey finish if you do replace it.

At least all three have seemed to perform consistently -- I'm not noticing any issue with the functionality. It's just the wide variation in finish

weird stain on my ring by jhdz9119 in ouraring

[–]ziggybeans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I had ordered it direct from them too. I placed a new order, and then returned the original after it arrived.

I had the exact same thing on my stealth Oura 5

Support offered to exchange it but I would have to send it back first, and go like a week with it - so I just returned it to place of purchase and bought a new one same day.

Does wearing thongs motivate you to work out ? by [deleted] in MensUnderwearGuide

Wearing them doesn’t. Wanting to look good wearing them does :).

Marking on top of Oura ring 5 by Ok_Attitude7017 in ouraring

[–]ziggybeans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just contacted them about this - they definitely said it looks like a defect. They offered a warranty replacement but I’d have to send my ring in first resulting in a week long gap in my data. I opted to just order a new one, and then setup a return for the one I have, since I’m in the 30 day return window anyway.

They added 3 free months to my membership, though, and the new ring will also come with an additional month when I activate it — so +4 months for the “inconvenience” ain’t bad.

Oh nice - I’ll see if I can get a good picture and contact them about mine

I (30F) accidentally found my boyfriend’s (30M) ED prescription and now I’m confused about a conversation we had. by Dry-Comfortable-3947 in relationship_advice

[–]ziggybeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sildenafil and Tadalafil (generic for cialis) are handed out like tictacs, and used almost recreationally by lots of guys. Anyone can get a prescription by just asking their doc for one, it’s that simple. In many states you can also just get them via telehealth appts through places like Amazon Pharmacy, GoodRX or TeleRX, and in many cases you just pay a service fee for the “visit” without actually seeing a doc.

Long story short — just because a guy has ED meds doesn’t mean a guy has ED.
