what are some dating app openers you would actually answer?

^((feeling inspired by the other post asking why no one answers shit on apps))

my question would be:

  • on a scale of 1-10, 10 being badly, how badly do you want to get off this app already?

i would both ask and answer this.

You know how people advise you to ask something about their profile? nah, that shit often gets you the silent treatment.

If you're gonna reply to this post, please write an actual question.

roach infestation in city sewer outside my house. I requested city to do pest control. Am I gonna have more roaches in my house after?

i have 1 new roach coming into the house every week on average lately.

I know the city sewer is infested and there is a manhole in front of my house. I know there is a nest under that manhole.

i'm concerned their pest control treatment is gonna increase the number of roaches coming into my house.

▲ 2 r/Ring

planning to cancel my ring plan and use that money to buy another camera that has sd card recording.

for $50 per year, I'd rather just buy a 4k camera off aliexpress with sd card recording.

It's more cost effective to cancel my ring subscription, and downgrade to the free plan. I still get alerts and live view.

with the $50, I would install a (jooan or similar) 4k camera right next to my Ring camera to record 24/7.

I will have saved $250 in 5 years. The shit adds up.

lots of counterfeit toyota parts on ebay. TPMS, gas caps, etc.

Genuine TPMS sensors from denso and toyota do not use CR type coin batteries inside. CR type batteries are not designed to withstand the heat inside a tire. And of course there's the fuggin cheap ass price which gives it away these are fake.

and their silicone packing is not clear.

You buy this fake shit, and you will be changing out your tpms more frequently.

These fuckers are selling counterfeit aliexpress chinese shit at markup prices, but cheaper than authentic OEM parts.

I just bought an oem toyota gas cap from my lexus dealer, and the rubber gasket has a gold sheen to it, like graphite or some shit.

These knock off gas caps are the same $5 chinese gas caps, but selling for $16.

I can tell by looking at the rubber gasket.

The reason I bought a $25 toyota oem gas cap this time is because my $5 chinese gas cap bought 2 years ago is throwing P0442 evap error codes again. and my $5 gas cap looks exactly like this shit below...

FAKE FAKE

FAKE

FAKE AS FUCK !!

Kunming airport. What is it like southeast of the airport a couple miles away? Is it walkable?

family will be staying at holiday inn express near KMG airport.

it's the only place that seems to have some non-smoking rooms, and it was opened in 2026, so it probably doesn't smell that bad.

need to find a place for dinner.

do you know if there's a shortcut here to reach the next street, as indicated by the arrow?

does bioadvanced complete insect killer spray provide an effective external barrier to cockroaches?

does Bioadvanced Complete insect killer actually provide an effective barrier to roach entry?

every few days a lone cockroach wanders into house. One just came into my brightly lit room.

i don't know their entry point.

there is a sewer manhole cover directly in front of my house, and recently when the city opened the manhole cover, i saw a nest of 30-40 roaches resting on the wall inside the manhole. I sprayed a large amount of Raid roach killer into the holes of the cover, and I assume I killed most of the roaches in that nest.

boomers don't know how good they have it. On my street in greater los angeles, house just sold for a $1.2 million profit after adjusting for inflation.

1850sqft house built in 1951. Inside is all old and dated. Just a new coat of paint. Decently maintained.

current owner bought in 1969. for $27000 (242,000 adjusted for inflation)

sold for $1,450,000.

Wish I could buy a house for $242,000 equivalent.

sucks not to be a boomer

the PDT rule going away just means mom dad your brother can buy more 0dte SPX calls this summer.

when millions of traders get the green light to yolo spx calls, the market will be difficult to rugpull.

temu aliexpress and $20 bidets can't be much worse than a Luxe 120?

they're all made in china, and i imagine all similar.

doing my research into bidets, but don't wanna spend much money on them.

Currently using 3 sheets of charmin or cottonelle (folded twice) to wipe a shit session every 2 days.

california is gonna start giving 400 free diapers to new parents. Nope, still not enough incentive for me to have kids.

This summer our welfare state of california is gonna start giving new parents 400 free diapers to help ease the cost of being a parent.

The joke is, that's not enough diapers to help much in the cost of raising a kid, and certainly not enough incentive to even consider having a kid.

Finally i heard a woman tell guys what women actually want: a man who sits down to pee.

you know, because urine splashes everywhere and sometimes you have a split stream.

and then who has to clean it up? the woman.

Other things she said....

a man that flushes with lid down,

washes hands often,

clips nails,

changes bed sheets regularly,

doesn't smell like sweat 24/7.... gym bros, take a shower.

All that other toxic influencer shit like "looks maxxing" is just guys telling guys what they think women want.

A9+. does this tablet have palm rejection or finger rejection?

I'm coming from an old ipad which i can hold the screen with my thumb in the middle of the screen, and my right hand can still swipe and do tasks.

when i hold the A9+ tablet, I have to hold it on the tiny border in order for my swiping hand to register any swipes.

if my left thumb moves onto the screen a little bit, my right hand swipes don't register anymore, until i move my left fingers off the screen.

is this normal for samsung tablet? or is there a palm rejection or finger rejection setting somewhere?

eggs are super cheap now. eggs for breakfast lunch and dinner?

here in greater los angeles, large eggs are now 72cents a dozen. I'm getting flashbacks to the 1990s.

I wish everything else were much cheaper too.

scrambled eggs, steamed eggs, marinated hard boiled eggs, egg fried rice for breakfast lunch and dinner.

What can go wrong?

pair that with the $1.50 ten pound sack of potatoes, and you've got protein and carbs covered, right?

Never had a problem with sewer until today, suddenly toilets are backed up with water in the bath tubs too.

What would cause a sudden main line clog?

could tree roots do that suddenly?

would the city sewer at the street cause my main line to back up suddenly?

we did not take big shits or dump anything down the drains that could possibly clog the pipes like this.

I'm dating in one of the hardest places on earth... los angeles.

I get more interest from women of my race on another continent, but i'm still holding out hope to find something in LA. and i'm feeling stupid as time passes by quickly. Opportunity cost.

I'm turning 46 soon, and it's been 2 steps forward, 2-3 steps back for years.

the May 30 plane ticket LAX to Kunming jumped $250 overnight. There are plenty of seats.

The same flight on May 9 costs $500 less.

27% cheaper on last minute ticket.

Makes me wonder if tickets tend to get cheaper closer to departure date ?

I'm wondering when people say "open to kids" in their dating app bio, how often are they actually fully receptive to not having kids at all.

there are 2 types of women I'm suspicious about.... "open to kids" and those who omit any stance on kids altogether.
