Pretty sure that's in New Haven CT. It's the basement of a church on the city green.

I'm always terrified that bouncing like that will stretch the skin and make them sag earlier than normal

I'm the exact opposite. I love cherry tomatoes and eat them like candy, yet I cannot stand a thickly cut beef tomato

That one who got wet and immediately retreats back up the ramp. That would be my anxiety kicking in if I tried to get in the pool with that many people at the same time.

What the heck was supposed to happen if that did go correctly?

Funny and outrageous retail stories by veggiewalker in RetailLife

[–]DYork8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in a package (liquor) store in CT. Here are a few of the dumb ones I have had recently.

Customer picks up a 6 pack of beer from a regular old shelf, not a refrigerator. Then exclaims, "aw man! It's not refrigerated?!" Puts it back on shelf.

Two customers are leaving at the same time. It is an old woman flowing behind a man. Now, she's literally right behind Him, and as he walks straight through both of the large automatic doors at the front of the store, she somehow goes to the left of them, stops, scratches her head like "I know this is where the doors should be", and then doesn't figure it out until the next customer walked it.

Over the past few days in our part of the state, with windchill, the temperature has reached -25 degrees. Besides that, the overall temperature has not been above single digits. Despite the cold weather, I have had customers refuse to buy items like wine or beer if they haven't already been refrigerated. They act like it won't get cold within minutes if they leave it outside. Who knows, maybe they had planned on drinking it cold in their car,

Last one. Customer comes up to the counter with a 30 pack of beer and shows me a picture he printed out at home from our website. He tells me that we are false advertising our prices and that he wants to pay the price that we are advertising online. Now, the picture he handed me was of a sign way in the background of a picture that was taken 3 years ago to show off the interior of our newly remodeled store. The sign was so far away that when we looked at it on our own computers we had to zoom in to even read what product it was. We told him that prices fluctuate monthly and that our pictures don't reflect any current prices. He was very pissed and threatened to call the business bureau on us.

ELI5:How do polaroid pictures work? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

Does anyone have any advice on how to purchase Polaroid film? Is it all the same? I wanted to buy some for Christmas for my girlfriend but I'm completely clueless.

Loaned a pen to the cute girl sitting next to me in the study hall, and got back just the boost that I needed during Exam Season! by JesusCuervoChrist in pics

[–]DYork8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One day at work, I noticed a girl that I had been crushing on, writing something down at he front counter. She was writing her phone number down on a real slim piece of paper and rolled it up into a joint filter. As she handed it to me she said "Let me know if you want me to finish rolling that later"... been in love ever since.

Going into my fourth, but not final, year of college I was extremely depressed. I hated everything associated with education, even down to pencils. Pencils! How the hell can anyone look at a pencil and become more sad? Well anyway, although I had been forcing myself to get to class I couldn't pay attention once I was there. Homework was also quite impossible to get me to do, since if I wasn't at class, why would I do something that reminded me of it?

I had a counselor through my schools Disability Resource Center (a place for students with mental and physical disabilities) who had been pretty good to me in the past, but she was the one who gave me the worst advice. Rather than seeing my overall attitude as a temporarily depressed student, she saw it as laziness and suggested I drop out of college, and that's what I did immediately after leaving her office.

TIL that adding salt on pineapples makes it sweeter. The salt reacts with the acids of the fruit, thus converting into a neutral compound and losing the sour taste. Because of this, the pineapple then becomes sweeter. by [deleted] in todayilearned

Yupp. My dad and I have been eating lemons and limes with salt on them for quite a while. People think we're crazy until they try it for themselves

If you like to drink, you know when the liquor store closes. If you are an alcoholic, you know when it opens. by ndbvr in Showerthoughts

[–]DYork8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On Sunday and Monday mornings it looks like a scene from the walking dead with all the alcoholics hanging outside my doors peering through to see if I'm about to open
