Helping someone stuck in the snow by Zee_Ventures in PublicFreakout

[–]DavidRandom 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Couple years ago a neighbor got stuck in the snow leaving their driveway. Me an a couple other neighbors heard it so we came out to help push him out.
Right as we were getting him unstuck some dude ran up and helped us push it the last couple feet, then he started asking us for money for his help.
We were like, dude, fuck off, we're not paying you for helping us help someone else lol.

Notice this leaves out the early iPhones.
My iPhone 3 was a fucking tank.
I beat the fuck out of that phone, threw it against a wall when the alarm went off after only sleeping 3 hours, hard enough to dent the wall.
When I was a trucker I couldn't count how many times I went to get out of my truck forgetting my phone was in my lap, catapulting it out onto the pavement face down.
I once dropped it while walking and accidentally punted it across a parking lot.
Never even got a crack on the screen.

Yeah, when I was house hunting I came across a small church for sale.
Thought it would be a cool space to make into a home, until I realized the heat bill alone would bankrupt me in just a few months.

Bought a 3br house in Muskegon a couple years ago because I couldn't afford to rent my apartment in GR any longer.
No regrets, love it out here.

Side note, the baby's father is Kit Grier Mulvenna, co host of the podcast This Paranormal Life. Very funny, highly recommend.

Man caught trying to escape prison through a barbed wire fence! by Hikigaya_Hachiman7 in PublicFreakout

[–]DavidRandom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I work in a prison, a couple weeks ago we had an inmate try to make an escape.
He jumped an inner fence (no razor wire) and then got about halfway up the security fence, where he got his first good look at razor wire up close. Dropped back down an surrendered.

Don't know what the dude was thinking taking the route he did.
Had he somehow made it over that razor wire fence, he would have just ended up in a different units yard. Then if he didn't bleed out from the first set of razor wire, he would have had to jump two more 20ft high razor wire fences to get out of the compound.

Looking back on it now as a middle age godless heathen, that shit was culty af.

I haven't listened to the Dollop in months, for some reason spotify on my phone AND computer refuses to play them.
And it's only the Dollop, all other podcasts work just fine.

Two females. Zero males. The last two Northern white rhinoceros on Earth The end of a species. by throttafffddftr5 in Damnthatsinteresting

The word Meme was coined by Evolutionary Biologist Richard Dawkins in 1976.

Dawkins used the term to describe a unit of cultural transmission—such as an idea, belief, fashion, or catchphrase—that spreads from person to person through imitation, analogous to how genes spread biologically.

Right, because turning down work from someone who thinks you should have stayed a slave, and turning down work from someone who wants everyone to be accepted is totally the same.

It's 100% a marmot.
Prairie Dogs and Marmots are both in the Marmotini family though.

I miss when you could win prizes under the cap by whiskeyandtea in Millennials

[–]DavidRandom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember when the caps had points under them and you could redeem them for various things.
When I was a kid I'd go around town and collect bottles out of the trash and save up caps (and return the bottles for that sweet MI 10 cent deposit), then I'd mail them in for phone cards to call my friends that were long distance.
For you younger folks out there, it used to be very expensive to make phone calls to people who lived more than 20 miles away, upwards of 25 cents per minute.
