‘I’m married.’
‘I have a boyfriend.’
‘I don’t need your help.’
I understand why they react this way, but I have to admit, I don’t compliment women very often anymore. At least the guys don’t need to assume I have some other motive in order to feel safe.
At one point in my life I designed bathrooms and kitchens. I’ve sold thousands of faucets. Here’s a few points on regular retail faucets in the US.
Expensive faucets, you are paying for the design (Grohe), or for quality parts (Kohler).
Cheap faucets are made with cheap parts and are often old designs from major brands. These knock-offs are sold under store brand names usually (Aquasource/Lowes, Glacier Bay/Home Depot) and are made of cheap plastic. Avoid these unless you plan on replacing (rentals).
If you buy Grohe, don’t buy a US made model. Another company paid to use the name and ‘style’ in the US but the interior parts are cheap plastic bits and some things are modified to reduce the cost of manufacturing. Not worth the extra money they charge.
For most people I recommend sticking to the big names. Moen, Delta, Kohler, etc. They come with good warranties and parts are available everywhere.
You can still find really neat old faucets and repair them. Chicago, Price Pfister, Eljer had some good stuff back in the day and you can get new parts from Danco.
We need to consume less disposables, but few of us are willing to tolerate even the slightest inconvenience. I’m not sure you can fix that problem without education at a young age. If you can’t fix the human greed issue, then you need to learn how to control it. Stop letting corporations and billionaires have all the money. If the population has a higher income, they can afford to pay for things that cost more to produce in a sustainable fashion.
Nationalize Corporations and use the profits to fund UBI and disability programs.
No, “86 the chef special” means 'kitchen is out of chef special.
Yes, your task is to remove it from the menu.
But you aren’t 86ing it.
You’re marking it as 86’d because the quantity is below minimum threshold (usually zero).
Same meaning in my experience. The patron is kicked out. 86’d is the past tense. ‘they have been 86’d’
You no longer have any of that product, ingredient, or in this case customer.
I bit my tongue, thanks
It looks like a piece of EGO brand lawn equipment (which I also like the look of).
Wearing a chain.
Chain necklace? Gay
Chain bracelet? Gay
Chain wallet? Also Gay
Chain mail. Well now you’re a dork. And also Gay
Because it used to be enforced. You would actually get jaywalking tickets. Also tickets for drivers who don’t stop for pedestrian crossings. So if you go to a marker for pedestrians (with or without lines) the cars will stop and let you cross. Nobody is slowing down for random bozo in the middle of the street though, so there’s no point in jaywalking. It takes longer to cross that way.
Cascadian here to confirm. Throw on an insulated flannel and a pair of muck boots and you can stay in your pjs when you chore in and out.
I’m in a similar situation. Have tried to get where you’re at, but have been quoted in the $30,000 price range. There is no insurance that covers any of that cost, and they all want payment up front.
Any suggestions?
Exactly why they tell you the seats work as floatation devices
In my experience, people tend to not want things that don’t benefit them directly.
If they don’t use the bike lanes they don’t want them to take up what could be a car lane they would use.
Chicken Coup
So anyone have the original? For research purposes…
When the teacher took your watch at the beginning of class it was either test time or tv cart time.
Is that an elephant dick?
