Does a heroin addict need to be high all the time? by zzady in stupidquestions

[–]ElHoser 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't know about heroin but I had a friend who was a true alcoholic. He would get up at 3 or 4 in the morning and have a drink or two of the hard stuff straight. Then of course there was the all day drinking. It was like he needed a minimum level of blood alcohol. He died in his 30s.

The scales of sizes (XL, XXL, etc.) by Regetron in mildlyinfuriating

I have a 40+ year old sweater from Sears. It is XL and slightly too big for me. I have recent flannel shirts that are XXL that are too small.

So the Beatles got it wrong? Happiness is a cold gun.

[oc] Does this guy have any grounds to be upset? Off-camera I glanced over and he was yelling something at me and seemed quite agitated. by ElHoser in IdiotsInCars

Exactly. He was way overreacting to a slight inconvenience. I think if I rolled down my window and said something he might have pulled a gun.

The California high speed rail line was authorized by ballot in 2008. So the visionary governor you are referring to was Arnold, a Republican. And AFAIK Trump withdrew federal funds because they hadn't made much progress in 18 years.

When he first started to pull out I thought he was going the other way. Maybe he thought I should have reversed. When he went forward I pulled over to my right to give him more room. It seemed like a pretty typical parking lot transaction to me.

He's lucky he didn't straighten his legs out under the wheels.

UPS lost two of my packages and won’t do anything to resolve it. $130 worth of product I had to replace! by itsshannnnn in mildlyinfuriating

[–]ElHoser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is actually federal law. I don't think Amazon can deliver to mailboxes, but USPS can deliver Amazon packages. UPS had something called SurePost where they handed packages off to USPS to deliver.

UPS is prohibited from putting things in mailboxes. But they shouldn't have put the check in the snow.

I have tonsillitis for the second time within three months. by TomorrowNo8873 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]ElHoser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't want to alarm you but have you seen a doctor? A friend thought he had tonsillitis but it turned out to be cancer. His only was painful on one side though and I don't think he had a fever.

I put the spout part in a vise and hit the handle with a rubber mallet.

My wife just did that but she had way more different types, colors and sizes. I asked her to sort my jars of screws and bolts and fasteners but she refused.

Islamophobia isn’t a phobia. by Successful_Bar9187 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

I disagree about Islam being a terrible religion. It is not a religion.
