Poutrew Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Another item you should NEVER put on a power strip is your Laser printer. On warmup, they can draw over 600 watts. I've seen some pulling as much as 2,000 watts on initial warm-up. They'll also kill your UPS by over loading it... always just plug it into its own wall socket. Also, if there are too many wall sockets being fed by a particular breaker, expect it to pop when you want to print something... Link to post Share on other sites
Legatus Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 That depends.. I find it adorable when somebody doesn't know something that is obvious to me and I can show it to them. Knowledge sharing with my loved ones is the best thing. Sometimes, depending on the level of relationship, I might tease a bit, but not too much so that they feel ashamed. It works both ways though. If I can feel comfortable not knowing something that might be so obvious to the other side and I learn from them - it makes me feel great. The dealbreakers are an amazing topic though. Something I've been thinking about great deal lately. I found myself thinking whether I could see myself with somebody long-term who, for instance, wasn't vegan. At the moment I try to realise that you can only find out but trying it out.. To keep it on topic I do have few dealbreakers: 1. Incorrigible attachment to money, consumerism 2. Lack of empathy to all beings 3. Lack of awareness and consciousness about our planet and life 4. Fanatically religious 5. Drama seekers As an example I don't mind if somebody earns way more money than I am, but if that's all they do and how they define their life and existence - then I know they will never understand me and it's bound to fail 1 Link to post Share on other sites
thefooloftheyear Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Here is a question... What if you found out that the person you were dating kept potentially dangerous animals in his house that could kill you...?? (not loose, in enclosures/cages)...Or maybe he didnt have but wanted to get... Say you really liked that person.. Would that be a deal breaker?? TFY Link to post Share on other sites

Those days of doing anything and putting up with anything for ‘love’ are long gone for me. F*ck that noise. Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Lucky Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 What if you found out that the person you were dating kept potentially dangerous animals in his house that could kill you...?? (not loose, in enclosures/cages)... I like this technique for ending an unsatisfying relationship when you don’t want to have that difficult conversation or be the bad guy. “Honey, watch out for my spitting cobra” ...

Gaeta Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 I was born and raised on a dairy farm so I am a country girl living in a big city. There are very few things I cannot do by myself. By the age of 12 I knew how to sew, cook, bake and pluck a chicken. On top of that I was raised with a bunch of brothers who knew how to jump a car by age 12 ;-). So now I live in big city and often dated men that did not know how to change a tire or fix something trivial in the house. I remember telling my ex that the kitchen faucet was leaking and he told me to call the plumber lol. I was soooooo embarrassed. So no, this has not turned me off to the point of not dating un-handy men, they had intelligence in other area where I didn't and we completed each other. Now I am in a relationship with an electrician who can fix his car himself and renovate anything in the house and that makes me very proud of my man :-) . Link to post Share on other sites

Confession time- my dream man has always been an auto mechanic. I would probably overlook any bad habit or quirk that he had (outside of abuse) just to never ever have to deal with getting taken at a shop again. The stress I’ve felt over the years from having to get my car inspected alone is horrible. I absolutely hate it. I would treat him like a king and then some. Call me crazy but it’s true.

The Outlaw Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 I've lost respect for people I had thought were friends in the past few years that were anything but. But over something that could have easily been overlooked, no. People should be more cautious, sure, but mistakes will always happen. Link to post Share on other sites
alphamale Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 I have a very strong fetish for high heels and womens feet. So women who don't wear heels or who have crusty feet are out. Link to post Share on other sites
