The other week I had an opportunity to go use that Milnor washer again but I brought some old moving blankets I'm sure has never been washed before. I used some Tide Ultra OXI liquid detergent, I poured in about 2-3 lines of detergent for the first wash and they looked like chocolate milk including one blanket where I had bleach put in but started to clear up during the rinse cycles. Then I poured in about 1 line of detergent for the second wash and they looked like milk but was very excessive like in the video. That tells me where my laundry is clean enough.

Curry or taco? Would you be ok with burgers and fries?? Read between the lines.

What I inferred was that some "cultures" do not have a clue, or concern, for other ones.
But yeah, I'll have a double quarter-pounder and super-sized fries.
Oh, and a large Pepsi with that.
No offense, but personally I find the most clueless culture on earth to be United States citizens. Appliances are horrifically bad with no quality control yet 300 million sit silently while voting with their wallets on the latest glitzy noise maker literally computer engineered to break down after 3-5 years. That is the greatest tragedy.
Imagine if people could do something like this with appliances, but on a scale of hundreds of millions:
In the video above both employees and customers protested the direction a single grocery chain was headed. Imagine if this could happen to Whirlpool, GE, Midea, Frigidaire, Bosch, Milele, ect.

Of course Matt, just like you may not care about their cultures. Or they are afraid of what they don't know or understand. Or you could be too. I have also dealt with this. I live in a heavily populated first, second, and third generation Chaldean and other Arabic diverse area. We also have Asian, Indian, and others. The old country seniors don't know how to have concerns for you. I help them when I can get through. It isn't only my city, nation or world.
I went to the first grade in a black school, and I worked in the city. Maybe it gave me an edge.
I just remembered that a certain orange person likes taco salads and McDonald's and steak with ketchup. I doubt scrapple though. A certain Patel guy likes curry too. So there's that.

Chet, I believe that American society has become complacent about many things.
Part of this is due to the corporate and political engines that have molded minds and beliefs.

Matt, not very complacent. Did you see my post in between?
Along with academia, which has taught educators on what to educate children on and what not to educate children on. Government running education is like the fox guarding the hen house. Of course civics, human rights, and the US Constitution are only sparsely gestured at while blind adherence to authority is pitilessly conditioned.

I really don't have any issues with "different" cultures, I believe that everyone is entitled to their own freedoms.
What bothers me is when one type of culture is disruptive to another.
One example:
I live in a row home in a nice family-oriented neighborhood.
It's always been jokingly described as an "Inner City Suburbia", relatively quiet and a safe place to raise your kids.
And when I moved here 20 years ago, it was exactly that, which is why I chose to own my home, and settle in for life.
However, in recent times, the "mandated diversity" crap started by a previous administration has caused the beginnings of family flight, home sales, which became rentals.
Some homeowners died, their grown children sold the parents homes.
Those properties are now rentals, and apsentee landlords, some living in another state.
In comes the renters.... all cultures.
So 2 doors down from me a Brazillian couple move in and hold loud drunken yard parties, loud music, sometimes till 2AM.
I've no issue with the way they do what they enjoy, but WHY not consider that nearby neighbors might not like that style of living?
I spoke with the man twice about it, and was insured that the lack of consideration would be considered and respected.
In addition, they had rats in their backyard because of the way they disposed of their trash.
We have city mandated laws here about that sort of thing.
We never had a rat problem before, I had to call in a city service about it.
So it's the "culture" that winds up disrupting things for others.
I suppose in Brazil they'r used to it and they can live that way, but not in my neighborhood.
Watching out my kitchen window a youngchild screaming on a tricycle fleeing from a rat chasing them down the back driveway isn't amusing.
Thank you previous Administrations for making a once safe and pleasent city into a Sanctuary City Ghetto.
I won't even go onto my home value change.

Of course, it all depends on the quality of the education, fairness, and being non-biased.
And those things only happen when is legislation is enacted with proper consideration for all.
And when people realize they are the 4th and final branch of government. Voting is trivial compared to the civic duty of accountability and feedback. The vagaries of fate make the common man an authority himself. And thats not counting the power protected and granted by the US Constitution.

Voting yes, and diversity is good. Part of the reason Matt's property values have declined is age. Our inner ring suburbs are experiencing it also. Not us yet though. I was at my cousin's house in Ann arbor when I was about 12. A black doctor lived across the street. An uncle from the Eastern Detroit suburbs asked how the H they could afford to live there and why are they even allowed to. He didn't know what to say when he was told the black man was n MD at the University hospital. That neighborhood is even more diverse today and the values have tripled.

No, sorry, my property values have not declined.
In fact, us homeowners get a yearly accessment notice from the city with the value for the following year.
City hall has a screwy way of determining what my home is worth, and I assume has they must think that I've done major upgrades that I've never done.
All the homes have went up in value automatically, each year.
In my 20 years here, it's doubled in price.
If I ever wanted to sell, I doubt anyone with a family and kids would pay that inflated price if they saw all the lousy, sloppy, ignorant renters that have crawled in "the hood".
I suspect that the city's crime rate is also due to the illegals that are peppering the city.
You can thank that last Administration for that mess.

Oh, I misread tax assessement for values Matt. It was getting late.. Our taxes have also risen over the years. It costs money to run cities, and employees don't work for free. So, we grin and bear it. We aren't taking it with us, and couldn't live elsewhere as affordably. Those buying into the area are paying much higher taxes than we are. It's relative to values. So moving would be very expensive. Young families are buying in our area. Caucasian too.
Where are these alleged illegal living? They don't get a mortgage, or can't lease without proof of a legal work visa or green card.
Our son is marrying a gorgeous Coptic second generation Egyptian girl. Maybe it'll be better when most of society is caramel!
Her family thought the current administration was better for their business at first, but no more. Also not ethically or morally, The nation is falling out of favor.

About 15 years ago, we noticed that whenever a homeowner died, or owners moved, the home was purchased by New York Asians, who started relocating here.
Many of them live in the homes, and are quite quiet, and keep to themselves.
However, some have bought properties just to rent them out - there is the main problem.
They don't care or investigate who they rent to, as long as they collect rents.
For a few years, one home, a block away from me, had a bunch of young Latino's living there.
I checked the property records, and it was a rental, the chinese owner lived several blocks away.
Well, these Latinos would hold large gatherings outside the rental property, I figure 15 to 30 of them, with an SUV on the lawn rear hatch open, and huge booming speakers blasting their type of music.
I'm a block away, yet my windows rattled, I couldn't enjoy watching tv, much less my own stereo.
I could feel the bass vibrations on the sofa and laying in bed.
These "parties" lasted all day into the late night hours.
One night this went on until 3:20AM - I said that was enough!
I've had to call 911 multiple times, as did other neighbors on my block.
I sent a letter to the Mayor in City Hall about this nuisance rental property, and the fact that the Asian owner didn't even register it as a rental, a mandatory procedure.
Within 2 weeks, the property was vacated, that SUV was gone.
AND GUESS WHAT!!!.......
I found out that that load of Latinos were Illegals!..... rounded up and taken away!
There was also a drug business going on at that property.
And.... the Asian owner was fined, and dealt with.
At least City Hall was finally doing something good for the city.
But I suspect that there are other sneaky goings-on around the neighborhood, yet to be uncovered.
I have locked this thread pending review by Alan for going too far off-topic.
