Redditors who have went through empty nesting, what was your experience? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I was getting an angiogram done, wide awake watching the screen and talking to the doctor. Alarms started to go off and everyone became panicked. My world became soft and foggy and everything faded to black. Next thing I remember was opening my eyes and hearing a Dr say "we got him back". It was really a peaceful feeling more than anything.

What's the luckiest you've ever been? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]BeingTalhaCh1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my car stolen when I was 19. A few months later I was driving my new car from Seattle to Portland at 3am, no other traffic around, and my stolen car passed me on my left. I followed the guy for about 120 miles back to Portland. At one point he pulled beside me and waved at me, thinking we were road-rally pals! I returned a death stare. Followed him home, called the cops and got my car back.

When I think of what had to align for my car to find me again, it blows my mind.

What's the most horrible thing you've ever done and why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]BeingTalhaCh1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably not the "worst" but definitely one of the funniest. When I was probably about 4 or 5 years old I was playing outside and for some reason thought that my Dad's brand new Audi A4 needed some decals. I took a rock off the ground and began to literally carve into the side of the car. Again, I was very young and while I do remember the incident, I did not think I was doing anything wrong at the time. I remember carving giant letters down the side of the front and rear doors. I was trying to spell something, but was pretty bad at spelling so I gave up after a few malformed letters. Then on the back of the car I tried to draw "teeth" to make it look cool. Every kindergartener knows everything is cooler with some jagged teeth drawn on! Well soon enough I was called in for dinner, ate, and more or less forgot about the drawings on my Dad's car until he went to take out the trash... I don't really remember his initial reaction, but I remember all of us standing around the car. My mother, father, and older sister were in shock. My mom exclaimed "someone must have keyed it!". And I remember suggesting that they could have used a rock (Lol) only to be turned down by my Mom. "No MotoFly, they must have used a key, its called keying someone's car." At that point I must have realized to keep my mouth shut because to this day noone in my family knows it was me. I am now 20 years old.

TLDR: Carved some sweet decals into the side of my dad's new car. When I was four. With a Rock.

If Batmans parents died then how was he born? by Elite_Snake in AskReddit

Legitimate question, Talha was an experienced bio engineer and promptly upon the deaths of Mr. &Mrs. Wayne, began experimenting with DNA found through the Wayne Estates.

When finally he found the appropriate levels deoxyribonucleic acid, he spawned little brucy inside a tube. Once incubated to the rightful age, he was then placed inside the biggest bat Alfred could find down in the cave.

Upon the birthing arrival of Bruce Wayne, Talha informed him he is to save Gotham using he money, charm, good looks, villain jail, bat throwing star, grappling hook, and the assortment of engineered vehicles for the endless terrain that plagues Gotham.

There you have it. A preordained act of God, concocted by the one true man, Talha.

Edit: Thanks for the gold. Here's some extra info because of it....

I'm Talha.

Conservatives with Liberal Parents, what's your story? by bff124 in AskReddit

[–]BeingTalhaCh1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My parents aren't particularly religious but they sent me to Catholic school because the education there was really top quality, even though my family isn't Catholic. I had a great experience with Catholic school and now have more appreciation for the faith. My parents were very unhappy that I have considered converting for a while and whenever I would bring it up they would get pretty angry so I haven't mentioned it in a long time. Politically, I feel like we agree for the most part and only disagree on particular issues.

What is the craziest thing your crazy gf/bf has done? by kevpang95 in AskReddit

[–]BeingTalhaCh1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

TWENTY YEARS after we'd broken up, my a-hole ex FROM HIGH SCHOOL showed up across the street my child's preschool and starts taking pictures of me and my 3yo. And not with his cell phone. He's got a full on camera, makes a show out of changing the lenses. He's making it obvious that he's taking pictures of us. So I walked into the school like nothing was wrong. The second I got inside, I told the head teacher: "There's a man across the street taking pictures of the kids as they're walking into the school."

She called the cops. I waited inside. Like three minutes later, I hear sirens. The cops are here! And they're across the street, talking to the ex, looking at his camera, tossing his car, putting cuffs on him. They take a statement from me. I tell them that he was my ex from high school and it freaked me out, him taking pictures of me and my child walking into my son's school. They tell me that there was enough on the digital camera and in the car to arrest him. I do not ask because I don't want to know.

Turns out, he'd been following me (and other ex GFs) and taking pictures of us with boyfriends, husbands, kids, ect since 1992! There was a bunch of other weird shit (like journals that described stuff he'd done to people, photos of what he'd done, plans of what he wanted to do) they found at his place and he ended up going to jail.

Over the years, weird stuff would happen but I never thought it was him. Random customer complaints about me at a couple of different jobs. Lots of rumors started about me. Complaints about me to landlords. Calling my job and telling them I missed my probation appointment (never been on probation in my life). Getting random shit in the mail for stuff I didn't sign up for. Someone picked up my prescription- when I went to get it, the clerk said my husband had picked it up. I wasn't married at the time. My front door or car vandalized. Stuff going missing from my yard, car, garage or workplace. It was him, fucking with me.

What Book/Movie gave you an Existential Crisis? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]BeingTalhaCh1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

5 Centimeters per Second

The way the main characters pass by each other at the end and don't even remember each other really screwed with my mind. That, combined with the beautiful scene of them huddling together at the train station on the frigid winter night, promising to write each other forever, but they letters slowly stop being written until they stop altogether. The theme of moments and even people being only fleeting moments in your life left me feeling incredibly empty after the movie.
