Reply to LPT: You can put a . anywhere* in a gmail address to make a new email that still goes to your inbox by Bomblord1
same inbox? which one? or both of them will get the email? Isn't that kinda a security risk?

My gmail address has always had a couple periods in it, because they don't allow underscores. Are you telling my that if I took them out, the mail would still go to me?

Yes! I love my credit union.

Reply to comment by lesterfazwazzle in LPT Request - how to respond to people who constantly try to one-up you and diminish your accomplishments? by idkifik
I mean the only other option is talk to them about it like adults should. Outside of that, you can't control their behavior.

I wonder if this could work: Think of someone else in your life who does this to you. (One-upper #1)
Then vaguely tell one-upper #2 about your struggle with one-upper #1. Then ask #2 how they would deal with #1.
Would this give #2 a chance to hear how this behavior can affect the listener, without putting them on the spot or embarrassing them? And maybe initiate some self-reflection?

Reply to LPT: Lots of kids are encouraged to dream big. Don't let this become a shackle in adult life, feeling you never fulfilled your "potential." Those dreams were a way to energize you to learn, practice, and focus. They are rarely realistic and don't take into account the complexities of real life. by zazzlekdazzle
Truth. At 5 I was going to be a fire truck. That was a bit ambitious. 😂😋

And then move your money to a credit union, which often have low/no overdraft fees, better rates, and profit-sharing.

Reply to comment by [deleted] in LPT: IF your phone got an case, hide some Cash under it for emergency only! by Noa15Lv
That also works for men, who are out to fancy place and don't want to take much stuff with them.
Or just trying to impress someone special.

I use dish soap - usually Dawn - to remove grease, oils, makeup or anything made from grease or oils from my clothing.
In your case I would use a little on the actual spot, let it soak in, then just toss it in the wash with the rest of the load.

Reply to LPT: We are heading into “Moving Season”, liquor and wine stores have a TON of boxes. by HeRoSanS
If you're in the US, U-Haul not only sells reasonably priced boxes, they will refund unused ones (just don't pop the little hyme seal on one of the edges) so you don't have to worry about not getting enough

They’ve probably got a picture up on the wall of you. But instead of “BANNED” or “NO ENTRY” it just says “Why…?”

Don't wash it yet. Get white chalk and draw on it til you stop seeing it soaking it up. Then wash like normal. If you've already washed thr pants, it's too late.

He can sell it even with tenants still under lease. Just whoever buys it would have to honor the existing terms of the lease until it runs out.

Reply to LPT: don't listen to this advise I just read on twitter: If you’re married, there should be no such thing as “my” money or “your” money. It’s OUR money. If you are going to have a healthy and successful marriage, you have to be one in every area of your life… including your money. @DaveRamsey by Pippa_Lee
sounds like you're planning for failure.
And then how do i send her to buy things without having to transfer money every time.
