My neighborhood kids love playing outside — but it’s disrupting my work. Help!
A gang of kids plays in my backyard all. day. So much screaming! It’s great that they’re rocking out, but I work from home and need a little quiet.
How do I cut paper towels out of my kitchen habits?
We took the dive into a CSA, and it is so fun. However, this influx of new produce has us racing through paper towels — lots of items call for wrapping in damp paper towels for storage.
We’ve started talking about cutting disposables out — but it seems daunting to lose such a convenient product! How do I get started?
My neighbors had a fight and I called 911 — was that the right move?
My apartment neighbors had a fight, complete with thuds, pained screams, and the woman screaming, “Let go of me! Stop!”
I called 911 since it seemed to be more than a lovers quarrel. But since telling friends, some say I overstepped my boundaries and should have minded my own business. What would you do in this situation?
Help me, Homies: My slovenly roommates attract bugs which I’m powerless to stop
Some of my roommates have been, let’s say, not so good with cleaning sometimes. So the bugs came. We rarely see them during the day, but they’re EVERYWHERE at night. Turning on the light, I usually have to stifle my instinctive scream. HELP. ME.
What kind of flooring can stand up to dogs, meet my budget, and fill 900 square feet in my geodesic dome?
My living room is huge and the carpet needs to go. My parents had it installed in 1985. I don’t really want to do more carpet, but I need something affordable and attractive. I’m will to do it myself!
Road-trip: what can’t we miss seeing where you live?
I’d like the Homies to give us touristing recommendations in their area. We need must-visit places — we hope they give us the fortitude to stop joking about our dream trip and start planning it!
I like to eat Wild: where can I find elk and deer meat if my CSA doesn’t carry it?
I like to eat elk and deer over pork and steer, but I’m running into trouble. Some of my friends think it’s barbaric, and it’s really hard to find. Help me, Homies!
How do we get our housemate to relax about trying to please us?
We like our new roommate, but he seems anxious and way too eager to please. Offbeat Homies, how on earth do you get the excitable bogan housemate to settle into a chilled-out hippy house?
