The Wednesday Wellness threads are meant to encourage users to ask for and provide advice and motivation to improve their lives. It isn't intended as a 'containment thread' and any content which could go here could instead be posted in its own thread. You could post:
-
Requests for advice and / or encouragement. On basically any topic and for any scale of problem.
-
Updates to let us know how you are doing. This provides valuable feedback on past advice / encouragement and will hopefully make people feel a little more motivated to follow through. If you want to be reminded to post your update, see the post titled 'update reminders', below.
-
Advice. This can be in response to a request for advice or just something that you think could be generally useful for many people here.
-
Encouragement. Probably best directed at specific users, but if you feel like just encouraging people in general I don't think anyone is going to object. I don't think I really need to say this, but just to be clear; encouragement should have a generally positive tone and not shame people (if people feel that shame might be an effective tool for motivating people, please discuss this so we can form a group consensus on how to use it rather than just trying it).
Jump in the discussion.

This is infuriating on so many levels. Perhaps the most galling part is that the "leave the truck running" part of this with modern engine systems is potentially causing a small amount of damage to the truck.
This guy may be the worst person alive. Aggressively stupid and inconsiderate. I think putting an airpod on the truck and then knifing the tires at least once will be the only way to keep your husband sane.
If you choose to build a cinderblock wall, ensure you make it a rudimentary Acoustic Mirror.
Sometimes the good ol’ “flatten the tires” treatment does the trick. Or you could try putting a potato in his exhaust pipe. Or stand on top of the hood of the car and piss all over his windshield (I actually have a friend that did this once). Not that I would ever advocate anything like this, it is highly illegal. Unless you ‘want’ to go to jail.

There's a massive amount of competition for that title. A lot of people seem to think that being totally inconsiderate or actively annoying their closest neighbors is okay or even good somehow.
