Reply to comment by mytrickytrick in LPT: When trimming your facial hair with an electric razor, line your sink with a paper towel. by Hello_IM_FBI
I do something like this but sometimes I just hug the trash can to my chest while I use the trimmers. Feels kinda gross but I do it right before I shower

About once every few years at a boat ramp I'll see a parking pawl failure, and it's pretty funny when it happens.

Reply to comment by OnlyDaikon5492 in LPT Request: Do you know of any co-housing/living spaces designed for people working on self-improvement? I feel like it would be huge for my growth. by OnlyDaikon5492
So you want to change without changing lol. Sorta kidding. Take some classes at a local community College or trades school, just one, an hr or two a week. Start the commitment to something slowly. You can do it, first step is the hardest.

So why not go for walks at night in the winter since there's more sunlight?

I think a group home for adults sounds about right!

You’re an asshole. Who hurt you that you think someone who is asking you questions must be taking advantage of you…

Checks out.
Vitamins, at best, are generally placebos.
Also near Boston, haven't tried light therapy yet. (Besides being in the sun as much as possible)

I just do it standing in the middle of the living room and sweep it up. Floor's dirty anyways.

Or find a tax person you can trust...ours is a long time family friend. As soon as we started using them we were getting much better returns because they take the time and know what we are eligible for.

I like this idea. It would certainly be a helpful little immersion to compliment something like Duolingo

The topic at issue in this LPT less the quality of their tax filings and more the underhanded tactics that make their services feel necessary to so many people. When I was renting out part of my house to friends I went with them and they did fine, but now I have a simpler situation and use FreeTaxUSA to avoid supporting their lobbyist budget

While in the marines, we got a new guy from Venezuela who had taught himself English by playing Final Fantasy 7 with an English/Spanish dictionary. His first time in the United States was to go to basic training in Parris Island, where everything is called something else (windows are called portholes and pens are called ink sticks, etc).

There’s more than enough evidence to conclude they were real. Entertaining that conspiracy is earth is flat levels of delusion

>do you guys not have an accountant that does everything for you..? I thought most people did this, honestly..
Lol what? Is this satire? Plenty of people dont have money to pay someone to do their taxes for them.
