NATURE VALLEY IS A GOD TIER GRANOLA BAR!!!

No sex tho

To be fair, it’s really hard to get your hands on a human mummy to eat nowadays.

I think about this a lot

Sorry about your cars, y’all

HELL YEAH, BROTHER!!!

We’re fortunate our utility (Puget Sound Energy) will give us rebates for DIY improvements as well.

We installed a heat pump and got money back from the state and the feds.

It definitely makes sense to evaluate electricity costs. It’s unfortunately expensive to get a heat pump in some places.

Where we live, the Seattle metro area, it was a huge cost savings to get our heat pump.

Crunch the numbers and make sure it makes financial sense.

We love our heat pump!

We did a DIY install a few years ago. Cost about $4500 in total for a Bosch 18k BTU unit and everything needed to install it.

We got $900 back from the state (WA USA) and $2000 back from the feds. That brought our total out of pocket down to $1600.

We had electric resistive heat and no AC previously. Our heating bill went down by $50/month in the winter. It added maybe $10/month in the summer for air conditioning.

For our area, with mild winters and low electricity costs, it’s fucking amazing.

Hell yeah!

7.6% of all sales is a higher percentage than I would have guessed.

you can get fired for not being positive enough

This is a sign of a broken organization

Masturbate, play with my ass, and scroll porno on my phone. All at once!

Unfortunate we live in such a prudish country.

Another vote for this!

The action is really smooth. They feel very well made and work very well.

It’s much better than the typical head shop grinders.

Damn, I can’t wait til she’s legal!

an engineer, their word may be trusted enough

That’s what happens here. This person was a Professional Engineer, a kind of certified engineer. Their job is to determine if stuff is safe for use.

Things like roads, bridges, pressure vessels, and apartment buildings all have a Professional Engineer (PE) look over their designs at some point. Their job is to use their expertise to determine if the thing can do it’s job safely.

Existing structures are also periodically inspected by PEs. Like the above person, they determine if the thing can continue to do its job safely.

Unlike other engineers (in the USA), PEs have to attain a certification. You need to take an exam and maintain a license. It takes a lot of time and effort to obtain these things.

Shouldn’t the inspector be working off existing plans rather than being able to declare any structural element as decorative?

As someone else mentioned, the building is old enough that the initial plans likely no longer exist.

It’s the job of the PE to make judgment calls like “is this column structural or decorative”. This person fucked that up. Losing their license and ability to practice would be a fitting punishment.

When PEs fuck up, lots of people can die.

And public consumption is permitted anywhere tobacco use is

This is so important. I live in WA state USA. You can’t legally smoke cannabis outside. It continues to make cannabis consumption illegal for many people.
