Moderating;

I’m told this is a reference to pulp fiction. But not everyone has seen that movie, and coming upon this on its own is pretty jarring, even though it looks like some kind of reference.

Stuff that’s offensive if you don’t understand the reference is going to offend. Please avoid that kind of poll.

  • Thanks
  • Appreciate your care going forward

How many minor home repair tasks have you been putting off doing? Minor as in stuff that’s either purely cosmetic, or at worst a small inconvenience, but doesn’t really urgently need to be fixed. If you’re renting, count things that might be technically broken, but you’ve been putting off reporting to the landlord.

Examples would be things like:

  • “I really should paint that patch of wall around the thermostat, since the old thermostat was bigger than the new one, and the paint that used to be behind the old one is a different color from the rest of the wall. I’ve even bought the paint and brushes, I just haven’t gotten around to actually doing it.”
  • “I really should nail that piece of loose trim on the shed door back on, but since I only ever notice it when I get something from the shed it’s out of sight, out of mind the rest of the time.”

Those are two examples of things I’ve been putting off fixing in real life.
