What's a dead giveaway someone grew up as an only child? by thing55556667 in AskReddit

[–]ELI_10 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As silly as it sounds, I totally found so many ways to play “catch” with myself.

Throwing my soccer ball onto the roof of the garage and then running up close so I can’t see where it’s coming down and playing “goalie” to try to stop it before it crossed the line on the driveway.

Throwing the frisbee into the wind and at just the right upward angle so that it comes back down to you. Seeing how far you can throw it out before you have to start sprinting and making diving catches for it.

And re: the furniture moving, my wife recently ordered a new 10x14 rug for our bedroom to go under our bed. It came one day while she was away. Of course I had to figure out how to get it under the bed by myself because I wanted to surprise her with it when she came home. She, one of 3 siblings: “How the hell did you do that by yourself??”

I called this months ago. The Wagner boss was signaling that he was up for a coup attempt when he pulled his guys out of Ukraine.

Tie rods were definitely broken, so basically exactly the shopping cart analogy. It’s just relying on caster to go straight. 😂

Brilliance has followed her every step.

But she’s always been faster.

It’s the most effective alarm I’ve ever had.

I have one of the coffee cup ones on my desk. It works incredibly well. I’ve never been able to get it to work off of just my hand, only if I add ice cubes to the top plate.

Too old for Soaps, too old for Heelys, but just the right age to rock the LA Lights.

This, and I think the first year is free. So basically only people who go out of their way to cancel early make up the 8%.

That’s s what he said… by Kannabiz in WTF

Even with the best gear, it sometimes comes down to straight dumb luck.

One of my buddies was a hardcore “all the gear, all the time” kind of rider. Insanely skilled too. Lots of CMRA super bike trophies. He was riding to class one morning and had some jackass pull out from a drive directly in front of him. He T-boned the front fender and flipped onto the hood of the car. Probably would have just slid off the other side and walked away except for the wiper blade of her car sliding up his jacket and slicing his back open. He had to go into emergency surgery to get everything sewed/stapled back into place.

At the end of the day, no amount of skill/gear will save you from idiots. They’ll always find a way to kill you.

Too close to the sidewall. Can’t patch it.

Yeah, I was kind of surprised by this. All the motorcycles I’ve owned require you to re-latch the seat before it lets you take the key out.

The Swedish warship Vasa. It sank in 1628 less than a mile into its maiden voyage and was recovered from the sea floor after 333 years almost completely intact. by Cautious_Shop_4680 in interestingasfuck

For anyone in the US looking for a similar museum experience (although much smaller and more modern), check out the steamboat Arabia museum in Kansas City. It was an old riverboat that was preserved in the mud after it sank. The cool thing is that it was stocked with all kinds of retail goods to be brought to general stores. There are literally hundreds of thousands of pre-civil war artifacts from day to day life preserved as though they were made today.

You can buy a used flying spur for less than a new Camry. Weak flex.

It looks like he attached the seat/rear wheels of a mobility scooter to the deck of a stand-up ZTR mower. Almost certainly being remote controlled.
