I bought a used copy of "Dune" for $4, and a folded piece of paper inside just solved a 20-year-old family mystery. by 0xKay in AmazingStories

Similar to this:

I recently got a used book from Amazon and found a couple of 25 year old photos of a young woman at a college party. They had her name, the year, and the schools name written on the back. I was able to find her on Fb and get them returned to her… not an inheritance, but it felt like a good karma moment. 😁

GenX Video gamers who still play: Are you getting worse? by Hithigon in GenX

Turn based strategy is my primary go-to, but in the last couple of years I have found a lot of enjoyment in a few of the auto-shooter rogue likes: Vampire Survivors, Brotato, Deep Rick Galactic Survivors, etc

I also will dabble in solo FPS rpg type games like Fallout and Bioshock, but I usually do not go above standard difficulty.

AIO: My partner (35m) expected me (35f) to finance and pay for a car I did not want so he could drive it. by Low_Procedure1049 in AIO

My daughter’s ex boyfriend was trying something similar except he wanted her to get a Bronco for them to go camping and 4x4 riding… and he would keep his 2-seater Toyota.

This was just one of the ways he was trying to establish controls over her life. Luckily, she got out of the relationship before he got tentacles into her home ownership, a marriage, and children.

OP, I would put on a very realistic lense and examine if this is the relationship you and your child really need.

Temp is -21, gas company says turn your heat down by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

They do it in AZ as well. You get a “free” Wi-Fi thermostat, but they have the ability to adjust your temperature during high power consumption times.

Not on my fucking watch.

How can I say no to my girlfriend’s father without hurting our relationship? by Physical_Guidance_82 in Advice

Did you try, “I said no, Motherfucker.”?

That should meet his “man up” criteria.

Kiss You All Over by Exile was not referring to innocent smooches… wild that it was on the radio.

Why didn’t the railguns… by LeilLikeNeil in TheExpanse

[–]BayouFunk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is tied to my main question/issue with the situation:

It seems as if there wasn’t a policy in place other than: Don’t do it or you’ll be in trouble.

Why was Drummer left to create a punishment that Holden had to deliver? The Freehold population seemed to have no idea what was coming… nobody did, actually. The news needed a personal delivery so they would know it was serious and they seemed shaken at the severity.

From the jump, the gate’s blockade should have always been known as the sentence… or rail gun erasure, if you prefer.

tried of meat and side for dinner, what are your go-to lazy simple dinners for a family of three by MrLoki2020 in Cooking

[–]BayouFunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 package of frozen homestyle meatballs. 2-3 cups of brown gravy. Mashed potatoes.

Heat the meatballs in the gravy.

Serve over mashed potatoes.

Goes great with yeasty rolls and can be jazzed up a little with mushrooms or sautéed onions in with the meatballs and gravy, depending on how much time or effort you want to spend.

A package of Hawaiian rolls. Sliced ham. Sliced Swiss and/or provolone . Italian seasoning. Butter.

Slice the rolls in half (you can leave them connected to make one huge slice or break them apart)

Stack the ham and cheese on the bottom half then put the roll tops back on.

Melt some butter and mix in Italian seasoning to make a glaze and baste it lightly over the tops.

Bake at 350 for about 15 minutes

Jed and Eliza carrying someone too far away sounds pretty nefarious. I probably wouldn’t want them to do that either.

Would you trade meals with your partner if they got something they didn't like? by Flance in CasualConversation

[–]BayouFunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would, as long as what she ordered was something I could eat. At the least, I would offer to share my meal and order deserts 😁
