  • When buying tools, how important is color for you?

    Jump

  • Sounds useful as a screwdriver. I needed a low powered one to run the crank attachment on my knitting machine. It's entirely plastic and the gears inside get horribly worn if any kind of serious speed or torque is exerted on it.

  • When buying tools, how important is color for you?

    Jump

  • Teal is my favorite color and yet I own no Makita. I'm very agnostic otherwise. Have things in all the other "houses" plus Harbor Freight brands and Kobalt.

    Cheap > breaks > upgrade is my motto

  • Are old people usually attracted to other old people?

    Jump

  • You are right. It is relative. I'm twice your age. 25 is so young to me. I didn't even really start having fun with adulthood until about 30. And I got into some shenanigans as a teen and twenty-something. Maybe that was more to do with leveling up the career until I had disposable income. Anyway, you may find yourself looking back on 25 and view it differently than you do now.

  • Would you have a drink at lunch and then go back to work?

    Jump

  • US, audit & tax

    Once in a blue moon, on a really nice day, we would get a patio table and have a margarita with lunch. Only if it was a slow work day, like with nothing but webinars scheduled for the afternoon (as attendees, not presenters).

    It was not uncommon to see beer in the office fridge during tax season because those folks would be pulling 15+ hour days for pretty much 3 months straight.

  • What's your favorite lullaby?

    Jump

  • Brahm's lullaby was the one mom would hum to me and would buy music boxes with it.

    Blackbird by the Beatles was the one I wanted to sing to my kids if I'd ever had any.

  • What does a week of groceries look like to you?

    Jump

  • I can respect this. Beats racking my brain every night trying to think of what I want to eat.

  • I did both when learning but did have to separate them because thinking about all the things, clutch, gears, RPM, mirrors, traffic, pedestrians was too much all together at first. I drove my grandma's automatic to get used to driving on the road in traffic, and I drove my dad's manual around empty parking lots, fairgrounds, etc until I was comfortable with the car. Then I moved on to driving dad's car in traffic.

    I loved driving manual, but my husband can't drive one, so if we took my car somewhere on a trip, I had to commit to being the driver the whole time. I gave it up after my job required me to do a lot of driving in bad traffic. For fun I will get one as a rental if we travel somewhere that has them commonly available to rent. I've had to convince well-meaning but somewhat judgy rental clerks to not upgrade me to automatic and that yes I did know that I selected manual when I made the booking.

  • Being silly together

  • (that was the joke) 😉

  • Being silly together

    Jump

  • Silly acts are the ties that bind them together

  • DIY methanol detector for drinks

    Jump

  • Probably simpler to take some duty free liquor from 1 airport before your final destination, and mix your own drinks

  • What's your funniest professional deformation?

    Jump

  • My honey ended a phone conversation last night with his cousin with "thank you for your time." Just running on autopilot.

    I have reverse work/life autopilot. I've ended work-related voicemails with "love you! Er, uh, that just came out by accident. I mean I am fond of you but...well, crap, just call me back."

  • Does it make sense to buy a lifetime supply of honey?

    Jump

  • Then you'd be a lot warmer and a lot happier!

  • [Serious] How can a glass shower pane shatter by itself?

    Jump

  • So you don't have to whack a car window hard with the spark plug? You only need to scratch at it a lil bit? Huh, TIL

  • It's hard being a kitty cat

  • Found it at Ross last year!

    Who are these 3 other guys in the car with Coolio in the "Fantastic Voyage" music video?

    Jump

  • Somebody shoulda told him the quickest way to torpedo your music career is to be rude to Weird Al.

  • Ask me anything, and then edit the comment to make my reply look bad.

  • What is your favorite pizza topping?

  • How long do you leave co-wash in your hair?

    Jump

  • Yeah, I don't religiously follow the steps either. It's more like a buffet of tips where I sample some of them. I still shampoo, but much less often. My other take aways were to stop using a hairbrush, I rarely use a wide tooth comb anymore either (mostly finger comb in the shower) , and don't touch the hair while it's drying.

    If I have a party or something, I'll use gel and let it form a proper cast, etc etc.
