They make some smaller sized ones that may or may not get into those nooks and crannies. Otherwise yeah sewing or hot glue might be your best bet Never thought of either of these ideas, lol, thank you!

Johnny Truant posted:Nah, it's a more rigid backpack. Other iron on patches I ended up sewing on, which was awkward and tricky due to the way the bag was designed but it worked. I'll probably just have to do that again! Improves my sewing skills at least When I went backpacking I collected patches from all the places I visited, and I ended up sewing them on, including the iron-on ones. Actually, I keep forgetting that I still have a bunch to do, over a decade later. Probably because sewing patches onto a backpack is really difficult and fiddly and easy to put off doing...

What is the best way to get rid of a gas dryer as soon as possible? I've put it up for free, and all the donation centers are booked out until mid August.

Mine will take one oversized item, including stuff like dryers at each pickup. There are junk hauling companies who will take it off your hands, but you have to pay. If estimate a dryer to be around $100. If you are getting a new one, many places delivering the new one will haul away old ones. Final resort is to set it on the curb with a sign that says working and free and hope someone takes it.

Tad Naff posted:Alternate stupid/small question, can you get Amazon to not use certain couriers? Not that I'm aware of, at least, not in  . I don't think they've had the option to pick specific carriers... hell, it may have been ever, but certainly not in the last 10-15 years. In my experiences, it's usually their own Amazon trucks or FedEx leaving stuff at the door, sometimes USPS in the mailbox, rarely UPS or other carriers (Regional ones, random dudes in U-Haul trucks, whatever).

I want to buy some NFL tickets but haven't done this in a real long time. The seats I want are sold out but there's plenty I would want on seatgeek, stubhub etc... Are any of these aftermarket sites better than another? Or other alternatives?

So you know how in despicable me, it's stated the minions are mutated corn that Gru made himself? (I know that's retconned by the minions movie, but THAT movie is retconned later as a propaganda film to hide they're mutated corn.) Do you think they would grow on a cob? Also, if you ate one would it taste like corned fed meat, or would it just be really juciy and sweet like corn? I don't know if this question has an answer, but I'd love to hear your thoughts.

I dunno but I'd be surprised if there wasn't already a Minions breakfast cereal perhaps based on Cap'n Crunch. I imagine an actual minion would be juicier, maybe a bit rubbery like octopus.

FCKGW posted:I want to buy some NFL tickets but haven't done this in a real long time. The seats I want are sold out but there's plenty I would want on seatgeek, stubhub etc... Those are the main ones, and I think the NFL or team website might do the same as well. Depending on which stadium/game you’re trying to go to, it can sometimes be easier to wait to closer to the time of the game to see if seats open up or costs go down (Risk of costs going up is possible, of course). You might want to ask in TFF, as there may be fans of the specific team who know more about the ticket prices or can offer advice.

Do bees pupate to their full adult size or are they smaller at first?

YggiDee posted:Do bees pupate to their full adult size or are they smaller at first? Bees do all of their growing as larvae. When they pupate to adults they are the biggest they'll be. Honey bees tend to distribute resources evenly to the larvae so they don't really have a lot of size variation among the workers. In other groups, like bumble bees, it can vary a lot depending on how much they are fed while growing. The smallest adult bumble bees stay in the hive and are stuck doing nursery duties and you typically never see them. Their bigger sisters are the only ones that go out to forage.

See also ants, which function the same way as honeybees. Ants are awesome.

I drink lite beer because I am a garbage blue collar worker. I drink Miller Lite which is Union made because I am a Union Thug. On most of the bottles and cans there is a tiny little "UNION MADE" just above the hops at the bottom right of the logo. It's a fun little party trick to show people, particularly in Texas when they are drinking Miller Lite and bashing unions. For some reason, not all of them have it, maybe 20% that I've noticed if I had to take a wild guess. Why don't they all have it? Is it coming from different plants? But if that's the case why are different plants all shipping to the same city in Texas?

I've heard of that book and Mom has been desperately resisting buying it, because as it is she has several bee books and at least one wasp book and a hoverfly book and a firefly book and I believe two dragonfly/damselfly books if we purchase one more insect book this year Dad might actually *riot*.

Mister Facetious posted:anyone know where the classic "rocketship with a porthole" originally came from? Woman in the Moon (1929) is a clear forerunner.  This is a production still. In the film itself, the fins are closer to the ideal, but the portholes are less prominent. Destination Moon did it in 1950. Take your pick of comic or film.   Don’t ask what their inspiration was. It’s the Nazi V-2.

I used the urinals in the local mall yesterday, and when I was washing my hands after I noticed the cubicle doors are frosted glass. I could kinda see the silhouette of people pooping and that weirded me out a bit. Am I weird or is that bathroom weird?
