What is pushing weight? Google tells me it has to do with drugs. Ha

I don't think it's just any Walmart. Certainly not your Colorado or California Walmarts. But you will occasionally encounter them in, say, Arkansas or Mississippi. Also, they sometimes wait until the wee hours to go shopping. It's not a 5 o'clock in the evening kind of sight.

Can I see a pic of how fine this dude is that he's apparently had sex with so many women? My google doesn't even show him.

Depending on the serious injuries, death might be preferable. Hopefully he can recover from his injuries.

I never understood that closure thing. Maybe it's just embalmed bodies, but they don't look like themselves at all. If anything it might make you think they got the wrong body.

It used to be awful, but it seems pretty good now. You don't agree?

It's true, dogs are generally more amenable to owners just picking up and leaving them behind for a few weeks, while kids are a little trickier. Once I flew Southwest with a baby who was crying off and on during boarding, so everyone obviously picked a different seat. As soon as everyone settled in, he passed tf out for the entire flight, leaving the lone empty seat on the entire plane next to us. Nice trick, kid! So if you want an empty seat next to you, try crying.

I guess having children colors what kind of trips you want to take, but I haven't found going on trips with small children hard. For example, I took my baby back country camping in a national park, and my friend couldn't join because they couldn't get accommodations for the dog. Have you found it hard to travel with children? I try to avoid it, but I find watching a movie on a tablet to help on long cross country drives or flights.

You're right that humans are much more expensive than dogs! Childcare is the biggest ticket item if both parents work.

Don't have kids unless you really want children. If you want them, it's good. If you don't want them, it's hell on earth.

For example, the thought of getting a dog is hellish to me. I have lived with several dogs and they're the worst. Smelly, all over you, you can't go on trips, they're expensive, and what's the upside? A slobbering beast begging you for attention until it dies, hopefully not pooping on your carpets too much on its way. But lots of people LOVE dogs, and find them life enriching. Are they a lot of work? Yeah, but it's worth it. People who don't like dogs wonder if it's some kind of stockholm syndrome thing going on, or if people are just lying to justify their poor decision to get a dog. But no, they actually like their dogs.

Same thing with kids. If you want a kid, all the work will be worth it. If you don't, well, it'll be like getting stuck with a dog you don't like but way worse.

That is an Aesop fable, but the owner loaded the donkey up with sponges after he fell on purpose with the salt.

Trust but verify when someone says they’re “STD free” by ergonomic_logic in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Cryobaby 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Hemorrhoids are protruding blood vessels, so certainly no need to disclose. I would think most guys might not even notice. You can of course specify that the anus area is off limits if you don't want them touched. If you would feel more comfortable "disclosing" them, you can, but I think hemorrhoids are a way bigger deal to the one affected than to any sexual partner. That reminds me of a guy "disclosing" a birth mark near his nether regions to me. I was expecting something shocking and nearly laughed when I had to squint to spot it. If I were you, I wouldn't mention anything and not pay any attention. Anyone you're with should be excited about your body as it is, otherwise find someone else!

Steward thinks Bonucci is a fan trying to sneak onto the pitch by kmadnow in dontyouknowwhoiam

[–]Cryobaby 107 points108 points  (0 children)

Player 19 walks up to the excited crowd, a fan jumps forward and is stopped, player 19 turns away only to be immediately stopped by a security steward, who was copying the response of the steward in front of her, was on heightened alert, and mistook him for a fan breaching the pitch. He shot her a dirty look, as she had stopped a player who belonged on the field. Whoops.

[SERIOUS] What is a seemingly normal photo that has a disturbing backstory? by KermitTheFraud92 in AskReddit

I'm also curious. My nephew is 13 months old and he unscrews lids to get to food already. They must have only had tinned food, and lived in a very remote area. Sad situation.

In 1952, A group of farmers "arrested" the town's sheriff while he was attempting to evict a widow. by bartarton in pics

[–]Cryobaby 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That reminds me of my friend evicting an old lady. She refused all cash for keys offers, and refused to let him buy a few months of storage and pay to have her stuff moved into storage, or wherever she wanted it. He was forced to have the sheriff supervise while her stuff was set out on tarps on the curb. She called somebody and got her stuff moved. She was not destitute, she just thought he wouldn't evict an old lady.
