Last year I bought one and I'm quite happy with it. I already had loads of books on my Amazon wishlist so I'm good for about the next 80 years.

I swear by Modal jersey finish sheets. They are soft, and are great for both warm and cool weather. The only shortcoming is they start to pill pretty badly, but I prefer them to any other fabric for sheets.

Back in the seventies when I was a kid my parents made me grind their coffee and brew it. I was well trained. I hated that fuckin grinder because I was a tiny shrimp and it was a bitch to turn the handle smoothly, and the stupid little tray would sometimes fall out (there was nothing holding it in) and the grounds would go everywhere. This is probably why I did not become a coffee drinker.

I can wear Apple style ones just fine so I decided to give their basic AirPods a go and they're really good. I especially like them because I'm hearing impaired and with both in I suddenly don't hate talking on a smartphone so much.

When it comes to sheets and pillowcases I switched to beech/Modal many years ago and never looked back. Although the jersey finish I prefer pills up pretty badly they are soft, stay cool in Summer and warm in winter, and also absorb alot of moisture before they feel damp.

Tossing in my usual recommendation for Modal/beech fiber sheets. With a jersey finish it's soft, absorbs moisture if you sweat, good temperature management.

I have a Theracane and it's good. Have to be careful when you first get one not to exert too much pressure. I would love some sort of vibrating massager for my back but the only ones I've tried were so wimpy that as soon as you press them against your skin they start to lug, like the kind that slip over a chair so you can lean back against them.

Captain Lavender posted:Below freezing weather and snow has hit where I live, and my hands instantly dried up like a desert. 4 of my knuckles are split and bleeding. I struggled for many years with this problem and tried pretty much everything. Gold Bond Ultimate Healing with Aloe has been the absolute winner. It comes in an unscented version, and doesn't leave my hands feeling greasy. I bought a small tube to keep at work and between that and being very careful when drying my hands after washing them things have been so much better.

I'm using nail clippers I stole from my dad when I moved out. They're probably fifty years old and seem to still work well. I expect they will outlast me.

Snowmankilla posted:I am tired of trying to get my wallet, chapstick, keys, phone, and pocket knife in my pockets. Let alone a mask/anything my kids may need. I have a backpack, but am looking for something smaller. Any advice/ recommendations for something that a not cool 40 year old dad could wear? I am leaning Fanny pack , but not sure I am ready to be 80s dad around the waist, but not cool enough to wear across the chest like a rapper? If Duluth Trading is still making their Five Pocket pants I highly recommend them. I bought a pair of the slim fit regular jeans kind and then two additional pairs because the pockets are awesome, including the little vestigial one that's usually useless.

Rolo posted:Looking for decent underwear because Hanes has somehow gotten even worse. I have 2 pair of Ex Officio boxer briefs and theyre perfect but they were 25 dollars apiece. Is there anything slightly less costly I can get in a 5-10 pack for when I'm not going to be very active? I've been getting mine for years from MeUndies and they've held up well. Much more expensive than the Hanes/FotL ones I used to get, but much higher quality.

I'd never heard of Oboz but after struggling to find a comfortable boot I got a pair of their Bozeman Mid and they come close. Unfortunately with each step the right foot toebox crease presses down on my toes and I don't think it's getting any better as I break them in. I'll never understand why every boot is now built to be an inflexible, unyielding pain device. I had two pairs of Bates standard black leather and nylon boots and they never broke in. Never. They were as rigid the day I threw them out as the day I bought them.

I've used GlassesUSA several times now and have no regrets. Managed to score a fantastic deal where I was able to replace my daily wear glasses and the pair I keep in the car for about $50.
