The ones I've never understood are: Prompt payment. Great buyer. I can't check out unless I pay. How is that feedback?

We have keys. In the event those are lost or destroyed, they will provide access to an approved list of individuals and drill the lock for $40. Also they're small town banks, so that makes it easier as well. We don't really need t

So when my kids were little, I read them bedtime stories. They loved the adventures that they got to hear about when I read books like Guards! Guards! And the Dark Elf Trilogy. Win win baby. They get easy to digest fun stories, and I get to

We did that with major hail damage a few years ago. I learned that in a disaster, you should count on everything being junk, and you're lucky if you can salvage anything. We also learned the value of itemized lists. 1500/piece for

Read something simple and fun after kids go to bed while you're staring into the abyss before you go to bed. Science fiction and fantasy work well. The Dungeon Crawler Carl books really help my brain take a break without actively disen

If you've ever worked with a church you know that donation and good will is not a way to ensure anything is structurally sound. Donations always come with asterisks. Nobody wants to make sure the roof is shingled and doesn't leak

Legitimately, did you not immediately conclude it was for financial shenanigans? What did you think? I'm not trying to be shitty, but what else could there be?

And yet, if you make it like I do, there always manages to be one piece that is ice cold while the rest is shockingly hot. Even if you're start with warm ingredients. Physics does not apply to lasagna. Also I suck at making lasagna.

The only two complaints about mine is the one set of updates about 5 years ago that killed every connection to my NAS, and that the auto skip function for credits doesn't know if there are scenes after the credits. But overall, for run

The hype around physical silver has been astounding in 2025 and so far in 2026. I have nothing to back this up, but I believe a group of investors learned from cryptobros just how easy it is to pump and dump with social media and scare tact

Silver was around 1/3 of the current price a year ago. Calling this a crash is a bit much. If it hits $20 then it's a crash. Side note and completely unrelated, but I got my kid a 10 oz .50 caliber silver bullet last year and kick

Also for those in the States, contact your local state University extension office. They know of local resources like this that aren't widely advertised/don't have an online presence.

WD-40's advantage is that it's not terrible to get on your skin when you're out working, and it's cheap. The people who use it are looking for cheap, mostly. Source: farming. We have many different lubes and penetrating

1 ton of water is only 240 gallons. So if we're talking a tube that is 4 feet in diameter and 10 miles long, that's 12.5 million gallons, or 52100 tons (or 104,000,000 pounds). While it wouldn't take that much to move that if

Uh, yeah. I've been a man my entire life and I've never ever had a problem with wanting to let my sexual urges cause harm to others. I have a very high libido even. Not once has this been a problem. The fuck is this about?

It's not always about price. Paying farmers to grow nothing ensures they stay open if we need them to grow something. When I farmed we had set aside land paid for by the government. When there were predicted shortages on food in the fu

I really wish they hadn't shut down Yahoo answers. Some of that was unhinged and amazing. I do miss when people argued whether Yahoo or ask Jeeves was better. Those were good times.

The problem with number 2 is that they're trainable until they don't want to be. Think like a cat, but smarter, with opposable thumbs, and a genetic vendetta against human made structures and humanity in general. Search and rescue

Just on a related note for anyone in college in this thread. Forgo the book fees or technology fees or whatever bullshit they wrap up in your tuition and go to dealoz.com. Buy the books you want to keep and rent the ones you don't. Sav

Can we agree to stop calling it anything but gambling? Because it's just gambling. Also, the fact that it's called gotcha (got ya) has always had the hair up on the back of my neck.
