“I fucked around and then found out. Can anyone help?”

4ish years ago when I bought a house I was convinced not to get a house inspection, would it be crazy to get one now just to make sure it's all good?

Was 25 and super nervous, so when the realtor was like “oh yeah they just check for basic stuff, but I looked around and it looks great” I was like “Oh okay, this is so astronomically expensive every penny saved is good…”...

It’s not crazy. You should get one every so often just in case. Better to find a small problem now than a big problem later.

I’m more shocked that you could buy the house without an inspection. My bank required one to give me a loan.

Real “who do you think you are? I am!” vibes on this one.

Yes, taken to the logical conclusion the only person who can complain about their station is the one person who has it worse than anyone else in the world.

Wired: Wanking at work

Yes. In fact I’ve heard that being unable to dial a phone is something that is common in dreams. That’s how I wake up in a lot of dreams. I’m trying to text someone or dial a phone number and can’t do it.

Squatters’ rights doesn’t really exist in the US like it does in Europe/the UK.

I think at one time in Nevada (or possibly still) you can get allodial title to property. You don’t have to pay taxes on that. However in practice you’re simply pre-paying property taxes for a certain amount of time.

IANAL, but I recall this being a thing in a few states.

I would kill a significant number of people. Honestly. It’s terrible, but that’s what I’d do.

I would need to plan out in what area would be the best place to do it to maximize effectiveness. Probably start in DC and work my way from there.

Seinfeld slams woke student audiences: “Back when I dated high school girls, they found me hilarious!” (www.thebeaverton.com)

HOLLYWOOD – With his Netflix comedy film Unfrosted debuting to abysmal reviews, 70-year-old comedian Jerry Seinfeld blames the failure on “extreme left, and PC college campus audiences”, unlike in his heyday, when the teenage girls he dated were fans of his comedy.

The thing about Seinfeld and other comedians who aren’t as popular anymore is that they blame the audience for not liking their material. Tastes change over time. The comedian either needs to change their act or live with the consequences that people aren’t going to like their material as much.

Rodney Dangerfield was a great comic for his time. If someone tried to tell the same jokes today, I don’t think he’d get very far. That’s not the fault of the audience. It’s the fault of the comedian. No one owes you a laugh.

I probably used a bad example. I like his comedy, but you hear it and it’s immediately dates itself. It’s the same when you see a old 70s Friar’s Club roast vs a Comedy Central one. The jokes are still funny but trying to take that sensibility and make relevant today would be difficult.

This is why they won’t shop at Aldi. They don’t accept coupons.

Maybe on the weekends. I work during the week. Depends on if I could get flexible scheduling and HQ had Wi-Fi.

I’m here to hopefully enjoy my time on this planet and help my wife do the same. That’s about it.

I’m confused. Are you baffled by the sound at a venue? Is this a structure that baffles sound?

Joking aside, this does look pretty cool.

18+ What's women's thoughts on public masturbation?

I really enjoy masturbating in public. Weather it’s in my car while driving or in a parking lot, parks, bathroom, dressing room. Etc. What are women’s thoughts on this? If you walked past my car or saw me wherever I was, what would be you’re reactions? Would it arouse you? Would you stop and watch/help? Or would it disgust...

How many divisions has the Supreme Court?

They can order him released but unless they’re going to send a bailiff to try to break him out of federal prison, they’re just words on a sheet of paper.

If you want to be hyper-technical about it, he could order a hit on Trump, but if Trump was already on the ballot and received 270+ EVs, he would be ineligible to be President. His Vice President would take over as President.

If both were assassinated, the Speaker of the House of the newly-seated Congress would become President.

I don’t think you meant that specifically, but yes if ordering a hit is an “official act”, he could conceivably order the murder of anyone who cares to stand against him, including those in Congress who might wish to impeach him or remove him from office.

How do you get rid of bad neighbors?

So our neighbors have been a growing problem for a few months now. They seem to be a flop house for six or seven people, most of them look high all day. They go out and Rev a Harley at 3am, they burn plastic been our houses in a fire pit, they have a new dog every two weeks because they keep getting out and getting hit by...

I don’t agree with the second sentence, but the OP’s options are basically “live with it until they leave of their own accord” or “move yourself.” The government will be no help here unless you know someone in it, especially if it’s a large-ish town.

stinerman,
@stinerman@midwest.social avatar

Technically violations of noise ordinances are criminal, although they’re usually minor misdemeanors. That would cover the bikes revving at 3am. The foul smells of plastic burning is probably also illegal.

Really this most of the rest of it covered under “don’t be a dick.” If someone’s life’s work is to be a dick, we should determine which people want to be dicks and put them in the dick section of town where they can all be dicks without anyone else complaining. It’s just crazy to hear people sticking up for obvious assholes and being “MAH RIGHTS” about it.

Look, your posting history says you’re a reasonable person, and I respect that about you.

We’re not talking people next door protesting some government action. We’re not event talking about people doing something unpopular. We’re talking about people who don’t have the common courtesy to be a good neighbor. It’s “I will do whatever the fuck I want whenever the fuck I want and if I’m bothering other people in my neighborhood then fuck them because no one tells me what to do.” I live in an area where I regularly have to deal with people rolling coal and revving their engines because they want people to know the rules don’t apply to them and no one is going to tell them what to do.

The old rule was “you right to swing your fist ends at my nose.” After COVID it seems like the rule is “I’ll swing my fist wherever the hell I want, and you had better get out of my way.” The local PD has been quiet quitting ever since then unless they can harass some minorities.
