It’s not the pipes I meant, but the flexible hookup hoses. They make metal ones, and I’ve been told they are more reliable then the rubber (vinyl?) ones that these appear to be.

I stand corrected. I checked where my plumber had connected pvc to the iron stack, and it does use hose clamps but as part of something a little more convincing. It’s basically a sleeve with 4 hose clamps mounted on it.

What terminal app do you use, and what do you use to do the remapping?

Again with the hose clamps. I’ve never seen a real plumber connect things with hose clamps.

Not a plumber but, I have to ask. …

The black snakey pipe that does a loop is the drain line? And the washer drains into it from far below against gravity through that thin flexible hose? And it is held on with a hose clamp at the end? I’m no expert, but I wonder about those things…

The hot and cold inlet lines also, I’ve been told always fail eventually and that you should use the metal ones instead.

And is that silver ducting the drier vent? If so, that’s a problem too.

Are the two of you more visually oriented than verbally oriented? If so, it’s really cool that you stumbled on a better way to connect than talking.

Just a joke.

I’ve read that removing earwax constantly can actually cause more earwax production.

Personally I do use qtips after every shower. Most of the time I don’t get anything, and all I’m accomplishing is mopping up moisture. Once in a while I get a smear of orange wax and go in for a repeat. I think it varies wildly though; there is a big distinction between people with dry earwax vs wet, but I think there is also variation within those categories.

That changes the equation enormously. I read their text, and they do say they should be discarded after a use. That could be CYA, though. Do you just wash them with soap and water, or wipe them with alcohol or something?

Well I use like two qtips after every shower.

Finally! A solution the problem that qtips are so inexpensive!

Bach’s Cello Suites. Maybe try Misha Maisky.

You also couldnt know no one knows the person is dead… or that they live alone. And unless you killed them, then someone knows they are dead.

I once had a cat who liked to play ‘laundry basket turtle’. I think we once put a plastic laundry basket, upside down, over him as a joke. He started kind of lifting up one corner with his nose q and sliding it across the room. We thought he was trying to get out and felt bad, so lifted it up to let him out, but he just looked at us like “stop spoiling the game!”

This cat also liked to play tag similar to what a couple other comments here described.

How do you feel about oatmeal? It’s healthy and has much more potential for adding flavors to than most people ever consider. It’s pretty neutral and makes a good canvas for other flavors.

For example, you can add cheese to make something like a healthier Mac and cheese. The starch makes it sort of creamy.

But you might want to upgrade from rolled oats to steel cut oats. You get much more “tooth” to your oatmeal and not just mush. Unless the mush is what you like. You can also use whole oats for even more “tooth”.

seem to sign that they are a company that want to pay as little as possible.

Isn’t that nearly all companies? Personally, from a pragmatic stand point, I think it behooves one to put up with some level of that until one builds enough of a resume to be able to be choosey. If they prove to be downright abusive, or what you have to put up with harms your mental health, move on.

Don’t expect companies to be altruistic. How well they treat you will tend to depend on your value in the job market, i.e. how much they need you vs how much you need them. You likely need to deal with some unideal situations to get yourself to a point where they see you as valuable.

For bonus points wear them on your head.
