My father did the same with a timeshare in Mexico. Every time he called to book a room they were full, even booking 8 months out. So he just stopped paying for it. They got mad and called him several times over the years.
Finally he said ‘Fine, I want a room in 3 months time for 2 weeks. I’ll even be pay all the owed fees.’ “sorry we’re full then” ‘Ok, well then I’m never paying you a dime, stop calling me.’ that was that.
As far as I know his credit was never hurt, but he’s also got amazing credit so maybe it was enough to offset that hit.
I originally started paying for prime for the free shipping. Prime video is a perk as far as I’m concerned. I haven’t re-evaluated it in a long time though to see if it’s worth it. I do order a ton of stuff on amazon since I live 160km from the nearest city.
In all seriousness, it’s not a bad idea. I think I will try it.
It’s tough for sure. I quit once for a year and a half, but some stressful times got me back into biting. You can quit too!
But what if I’m a masochist?
That’s how I’ve done it in the past. I keep nail clippers in my pocket all day. Thanks for the tip though.
Biting my nails and the skin around my nails. Currently trying to quit again. On day 6.
I find the cold water refreshing. That said, I’ve never tried a heated one.
Thanks for the support. Some people think the world is uniform and don’t understand anything outside of their world view.
I run 1000 cows on a 60,000 acre ranch in southern Alberta. It’s too rough to run a semi truck and trailer around on but I can haul a tri-axle Wilson gooseneck stock trailer with 20,000 lbs of cattle across it when I need to. There’s no roads through the ranch other than dirt trails so it takes a long time to travel through it and the fewer trips I have to make the better. Generally I’m moving cattle on horseback but occasionally I have to move old/sick/injured cows from a to b. Simply put, your European farms are miniscule and you don’t need the same capabilities that we do. The world is not uniform.
Recently bought a new diesel silverado 3500 for my ranch. It’s enormous, I’m glad I didn’t get the dually option as it’s hard enough to drive in the city. Most of its job however is pulling trailers around.
That said, on highway if I drive the speed limit and take it easy I can get 9L/100km. It’s unreal that such a huge truck will get almost the same economy as our KIA SUV.
Get out of here with your reason. That’s not what the internet is for. Now, would you like a torch or pitchfork?
I didn’t. However, I read Lemmy until I run out of interesting posts, then switch to reddit until the ads make me angry. Then I do something productive.
Same here. Just seemed like the right choice.
The greatness/size ratio is off the charts!
