They did. It turned out it had been stolen prior to our encounter with it. 

The car was stolen, we learned a few days after the police took it. 

We called to follow up a few says after they took the car. They said it had been reported as stolen, so at least it was at least returned to the owner (or at least they said they were trying).

Back in high school, my parents were strict about my curfew and driving long distances. I thought it was lame then, but I would not drive 2 hours with a 17 year old behind the wheel now.

Mirrors have always scared me and I was convinced as a kid that your reflection could be “replaced”. What a great entry!

What a twist.... *shudders* I’d rather never know what was on those recordings. 

Same. exact. experience. Grandparents built a place in the middle of the country with SO many windows. They weirdly always left the blinds up. The living room and kitchen were essentially just windows...

Another trick is to set a deadline/timeframe for assisting with tasks outside of your role or your compensation. It has worked for me in the past. Typically, it goes something like, “I will help do [x], but I can not continue to do [x] beyond [time frame] because of [list out other responsibilities that are in your…

That is a really good question that I hope policymakers are asking the same kinds of things. It seems like basing it off of charges is the obvious low-hanging fruit, so to speak.

If you can (which I know isn’t always possible), move to a state that has restored voting rights for people with felonies who have served their time. Although, I think only a handful have done this.

Maybe a limit on quantity sold at a single purchase like many laws do for over the counter medications. It may not fully stop people, but at least it would force them to take a really long time to get what they were looking for and maybe give more time for strange/alarming behavior to be reported and acted on.

If a law prohibited/limited individuals with a history of domestic violence from purchasing guns or ammunition, many shootings would be prevented.

Maybe this will help.

What about 403Bs? They linger after changing jobs, but don’t work exactly like 401ks

My dentist just gave me some things at their office to chew on to help my trays fit on a few different teeth.

If you don’t have a lot to correct, the Smile Direct is probably a good option. If you have complex needs, you may be better off with a dentist.

This is legit. I am an adult with invisalign and it really does stop you from snacking!

The carrying-a-balance-at-billing advice is a myth that has been talked about on LifeHacker before. What matters is payment history, credit utilization, history, and diversity of credit/loans. You don’t need to pay interest on anything to build credit!

Yeah, unfortunately case law supports not having a right to your bodily materials after they have been taken from you.

This is so helpful. I definitely still have friends who should get the vaccine.
