DuckNCover  User ID: 80049622  United States02/14/2021 09:23 PM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I need to ask what you think about this...I put a normal bin thing on my outside faucets. Then, I got a cheap styrofoam cooler and used the bottom of it to put over my normal faucet bib thing. I proper it tight against the wall. Do you think that styrofoam cooler will help any extra than just having the normal one on? Temps are going to be 2 degrees tonight. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80028964 If you packed it with insulation then it should be ok. A styrofoam cooler will have minimal insulation properties... Are your pipes exposed, underneath your home??? If so, you could use insulation on the pipes or get an electrical heating wrap for the pipes... We have a few faucets dripping, inside our home, to keep the water circulating and prevent freezing... |

I know it's Winter and expected. But the snow has been off the charts in some places! Quoting: MissInformed Stay warm peeps. Layer up. Stay indoors to keep warm. But get some fresh air inbetween. It's not really cold. It was literally zero degrees in the 1970s. You people are such cowards. |

There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory mentioned, which states that this has already happened. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74661623 Wow. Think there’s ice down the toilet flush line here, water level keeps rising, having to scoop it into the tub every few hours. Just put a hose from bowl to tub, hopefully that’ll do the scooping now. Live in an apt but haven’t bothered to call maintenance yet, figure there’s nothing to be done until it gets above freezing. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79015725 It was literally zero degrees in the 1970s. You people are such cowards. Lived 40 years in Michigan, remember looking after the neighbor's horses when it was -30F°, -60F° wind chill years ago. Then going back into a well insulated home. Now live in No-wa-ta, in a 100 year drafty home. Doing the best I can, and giving friendly advice to my neighbors. The problem most are having is being unable to heat their homes, no matter how much they turn the heat up. I have one room up to 69°, rest of the house low 50s. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 78090287 United States02/15/2021 01:41 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yeah I'm in Tulsa atm. Usually live in Cherokee county. Super fucking cold. There is some snow but supposed to be a lot more. I was one of the unfortunate ones on monday morning trying to go to work. A uninsured mexican lost control and ran into my pregnant wife's car. Then he promptly sped off when I asked for his insurance. The useless fucking police just told me they probably wouldn't find him (they aren't going to look). So I'm stuck with the 1k deductible. Anyway if gas keeps going the way it's been I won't be able to drive anyway thanks obiden you fucking commie piece of shit. Quoting: Sin Defiant So sorry, I thought it was mostly in CA, guess its everywhere, and with bidone will be worse. Cops barely respond here unless its sports equipment related. |

About ten years ago I had one of them plow into me. He tried to take off too, but the other drivers around me blocked him from leaving. He hit me so hard, he threw my car sideways and up onto the curb and sidewalk. Of course, he tried to tell the cops it was my fault even though his back end took out my front end trying to change lanes with me there. She didn't believe him, especially since the others that stopped him from leaving told the truth about how he took me out. Last Edited by TrustNoOneKS on 02/15/2021 01:45 AM I Want To Believe |
