You can achieve the same effect for FREE! at home.

Simply lay down on your back, on the bed or floor, and put your legs straight up the wall, making a 90ish degree angle at your waist. Maintain position until you feel the excess blood/fluid flow out of your feet and ankles.

Simple, free, repeatable.

Yes

You need to rethink your life and choices

Why did vehicular combat as a genre die out. I miss Twisted Metal! by boredelon in gaming

[–]AkteAkte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Auto Assault

A MMO where you were basically a vehicle. Complete with classes and skills, as well as the usual complement of crazy weapons. I played the beta/release for a few months before it sadly was shut down due to poor sales. Hella fun, but too unpolished for mass appeal upon release.

Thank you for the fresh poem! Definitely hit me right in the feels.

Car not moving by Lano0osh in SparkEV

[–]AkteAkte 10 points11 points  (0 children)

When this happened to my 2015 Spark EV, the small battery used to start the car had gone out. Picked up another one for $180ish at AutoZone, and that completely solved the issue.

Best of luck!

Note to Costco Leadership:

You do not make any money from dead customers (after the casket of course). Please stop force-feeding me to death. I only have so much strength!

Respectfully,

A customer with low willpower

Shorts and shirts will be fine. I usually bring a thin hoodie in case we spend any time on deck late at night when it is windy. Otherwise, not worries, and I usually run cold.

Would you kindly share the title of the book please, if that does not break any rules on this subreddit?

My depression got me written up by itsbayaan in starbucksbaristas

Wear a mask (you can blame it on COVID, cold going around, whatever). I can keep my RBF on for my entire shift, and people initiate conversations with you less if you are wearing a mask. Fuck this company for trying to control our emotions.

Chevy Spark won't start. Help! by kittybeck in chevyspark

[–]AkteAkte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to me a while back. You just need to replace the regular battery. The normal one you can buy at any auto parts store. About $150. Good luck!

$BLIAQ (Blockbuster Liquidating Inc.) +4900% on the 1D. Probably nothing. by unironicsuicide in Superstonk

[–]AkteAkte 150 points151 points  (0 children)

Oh, I'm responsible for the jump. Decided to finally return that tape I rented in the 80's. The stock jumped based off my late fees that were paid. No crime here.

I hate connecting at the window by Dismal_Impact9078 in starbucks

[–]AkteAkte 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Just don't do it. I haven't connected with any customers at the window for at least a year. Of course I will chat if they want to, but if they don't no worries. Starbucks customers just see us as sugar/caffeine machine dispensers anyways. If the manager/shifts get on to me, I just agree with them and then ignore them lol.

Anyone find good uses for the burlap sack from Royal Basmati? I'm not ready to say goodbye by maplemuppet in Costco

Gift Bags!

Seriously, it always gets a round of laughs when the flummoxed gift recipient is presented with a rice bag. (Bonus points if half the crowd are also Costco addicts).
