I'm taking him back in 2 weeks for some boosters and his first round of another vaccine. I'm shooting for 4 months if he's ready to get fixed by them if not waiting till 5. I don't want an unaltered male running around my house.

I don't want an unaltered male running around my house. I learned the hard way that if you snip off their balls too early, you risk delaying their bone growth because their hormones get out of whack. I had my cat fixed when he was about 5 months old and one day I come home to find him limping around on three legs. After several trips to the vet and many thousands of dollars later I was shown some x-rays and you could see that his bones had barely fused together. The vet told me it was because he was fixed too early. He basically had a brittle kitten skeleton even though he's a huge-rear end Maine Coon/Ragdoll mix. One of his hip ball joints had basically broken off after he had jumped down from a shelf or something. He's fine now, but that's not an experience I would wish on any cat owner.

Nostalgia4Infinity posted:Are Casper mattresses any good? We're in the market for a new one. I quite like mine, have had it for two years. Getting my frame today so can only assume it'll be better. Since Casper started doing their whole trial shtick--not saying they were first--seems a lot of other similar startups have shot up. People really hate mattress salesmen I guess, who knew? It can get a bit warm, but it is directly on carpet, slats should help. I got a waterproof/cooling pad for the pupper and it seems to help a bit I suppose. I remember reading somewhere a while ago that Leesa was using a new memory foam that managed heat better but I can only assume Casper switched too since then. So there's Casper, leesa, and then probably a couple others. They all have some sort of referral bit, I know the deals subforum has/had a chain. If you go the Casper route I might have a referral code which I think gives you $50 off. My queen was $800 after the discount The biggest thing with a new mattress is there can be a bit of an adjustment period that might take upwards of three weeks+. Regardless with the trial bit no reason to not try one of them out. You call them and they send someone to pick it up and donate it to a charity I believe Nostalgia4Dogges fucked around with this message at 01:01 on Dec 30, 2016 |

Big Lots has the worst furniture. It always looks fine, but it's being sold at Big Lots for a reason. I learned from buying a sectional couch from a Big Lots, it was absolute junk within a year, without a big dog around either. Costco has good furniture. There's some decent mattresses to be had on amazon. I bought a king size memory foam one from amazon, drat thing was awesome and maybe $500 with a platform to keep it off the ground.

At a minimum, if you need a mattress, you should go into a store to test out the different types of mattresses. I kept hearing how awesome memory foam mattresses were, then I tried one and it felt hard as a brick (I am a tiny human). I likely overpaid for a king-size pillowtop-style, but that loving thing is comfortable as hell. As for the Grand Tour, loving hell that was a tense episode and really well-done. I mean, I know they weren't in any *real* trouble, most likely, but they sure made me believe it. Goddamn.

Well yeah, don't go buying a firm mattress if you're light. I'm constantly floating around 200lbs, so a firm memory foam is fine for me. The real problem with low end memory foam is that eventually you will wear a rut into it. But the great thing about a king size is it's basically a big rear end square, so you can turn it four ways before finding an old rut. That $500 mattress I had was fine though because I turned it every few months.

Probably a stupid question, but what do you do with your old mattress when you order a new one online? Obviously UPS or whatever isn't hauling it away. Leave it on the curb?

Salvation Army will come pick up just about anything. Actually, all those mattresses that come with a 100 night guarantee just tell you to donate the thing to Salvation Army or goodwill or something and refund the cash. They don't want back your slightly used mattress.

TBeats posted:A nice bed is on my to-buy list for 2017. Gonna drop ~$1000 on it. The $350 mattress I'm on now is shredding my back. Probably the second best thing I ever spent money on was getting a sleep number 3-4 years ago. Spent something like $1600 but thats the base, mattress system and all the add ons and protection plans. Pay the fat rear end cash on something good to sleep on. Memory foam mattresses are getting cheaper and you have a poo poo ton of different options as well. I don't remember which brand but I almost got one before I got the deal on the SN. Vasudus posted:Guys I pooped so hard I think I pulled my groin. Dude. Eat some salad on a regular basis. Also.

I sold mine before trying to stuff it into a Kia again. I managed to squeeze it in there once, moving from Memphis to Nashville, but that wasn't going to happen on a 1100+ mile drive with Frank, two cats, and a few footlockers worth of clothes and miscellaneous kitchen poo poo. It was sell it, or try to convince my brother to stuff it in his storage locker for a few months to years or whenever I get around to picking poo poo up. It had a mattress cover (that I kept) and I was nice enough to vacuum the dog hair off of it. I got a few hundred bucks, he got a mattress, platform, and a few random pieces of cheap furniture to fill his divorcee bachelor pad. I've never had bed bugs and I'm not above sleeping on a mat on the floor or a cheap old army cot. Back in the married days, any new mattress just meant another empty bedroom was getting a bed. I had a 3 bedroom house with 3 beds and I slept on the couch because the wife was a oval office and I like to sleep with background tv or radio noise.

I suppose if they're decent enough but most the chumps ITT aren't exactly getting rid of a nice mattress, just the poo poo $150 one wor lmao down with body oil stains from sleeping on it with no sheets Point is it's likely no one wants it and people on Craigslist might pick it up depending on the quality. You can just do what everyone else does and dump it in an alley or someone's yard

Goodwill won't do poo poo besides unload it and waddle it into a corner of the store somewhere. Goodwill is actually a really lovely company.

My hoarder neighbor took a CRT off my hands a few months back. I had consigned myself to having to pay 60 bucks to have it recycled, but he took it no questions asked. Just wish his wife would stop taking rocks out of our retaining wall for her weed (not the kind you smoke) garden. Also RE: my lovely neighbors, pretty sure they don't have working sewer and/or water. They bring in 50 gallon drums every couple weeks and haul them off in the middle of the night... I hope they aren't, but it wouldn't surprise me if they were actually making GBS threads in buckets. They burn pallets for heat in the winter so is that really a step down?

Right now, there is a busted up fox body Mustang, maybe 70 pallets, a bunch of scrap metal and junk, a dozen 50 gallon drums, mice, rabbits and squirrels. And I think 7 dogs, and definitely no grass, so all you can smell is dogshit most of the year. Also there are two more broken down cars in the driveway!

Higher than his, so it won't hide everything, but maybe it will hide the more obvious stuff. The guy on our other side has a poo poo house too, he moved a freight container into his back yard, his house hasn't been painted in 20 years, and his retaining wall is sliding into our yard, so we are a late spring blizzard away from a pine tree crashing into our garage.

Posted this in the networking thread but maybe y'all can give me some input Hey all. So I have this router Asus RT-N66U I got this NETGEAR Nighthawk X6 AC3200 R8000 for my mom but she ended up not needing it.I paid $180 or thereabouts for it new. I put it up for sale for $200 but haven't received any bites. Suffice is to say I'm considering just keeping it then. Is it overkill for my needs? I'm a pitiful bachelor and my place is pretty small--but I do like to chill on the patio with my surface pro. My PS4 and TV are wired but other than that a handful of other devices I don't really understand internet speeds too well. I have the Cox premier package which is apparently up to 150mbps download and up to 10 mbps upload My modem is the SB6141 I'm online a lot and money isn't much of an issue: I'm a latest and greatest kind of person. But if i'm perfectly fine where I'm at that's cool too

Probably overkill, but it certainly won't perform worse than what your running now. It's just a matter as to whether you want to recoup the money you spent.

I can deal with trashy people, hell, I am trashy people, but I hate the idea of neighbors leaving random poo poo everywhere. We had a Christmas donation thing at work, couple bucks or gifts for some poor kids and the like. One of the families lives in a loving trailer missing a whole exterior wall. A couple of us volunteered to go out and build a temporary wall to button up their shitcan, but they apparently weren't too keen on not freezing to death this winter and we haven't heard back since we offered to help. This is a family of at least four. loving Springs is full of crazy people.
