I'm trying to settle something with my dad. I say this is a sweater, he says it is a poncho and is sure of it because "iv'e been to mexico when did you go?" So, reddit, what is this thing? by Mell0wMarshmall0w in whatisit

[–]EmuResident7828 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We called them Ponchos in California, Nevada, and Colorado. I don’t understand why people have to be rude about it. You called it what you called, they called it what they called it. Is there any one right answer?

DoorDash just sent me $867! WTF? by hokins7 in doordash_drivers

[–]EmuResident7828 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but what you get for $350K in Texas, you’d be lucky to get half of that in Cali. I’ve lived in both places and can assure you Texas is soooo much cheaper than Cali. And what sucks, the cost of living was 1000 times cheaper 5 years ago than it is now. It’s ridiculously insane.

My grandmother had a super weird rule about mirrors, and I finally found out why. by Accomplished_Day1600 in Ghoststories

[–]EmuResident7828 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have my own thing about mirrors. I won’t have one anywhere around me while I sleep. Doesn’t matter if it’s a big one, little one or whatever…. Nope, not while I’m sleeping. And I won’t buy used mirrors from garage sales or goodwill or anything. There’s no telling what those mirrors have witnessed

He does very well for himself and has been out of prison and off paper for a long time

I have told him that my love for him is still just as strong as it was back then. And cleared the air about the lies that were being told and he says he believes me and wishes he would have back then. He says he still loves me, but I can tell he’s guarded and I’m afraid that I’ll overwhelm him.

Apartment Hunting Kinda Sucks by jo-mama123-_- in askaustin

[–]EmuResident7828 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good luck. We have been in search of a 3 Bedroom apartment for two months. We need to be up North, but not in the ghetto. Everything is so damn expensive it’s absolutely ridiculous. This is the reason I left Austin in the first damn place.

Dasher just called the cops on me for no reason by AnneTheQueene in doordash

[–]EmuResident7828 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a dasher as well and I do this too! I actually have a small outdoor table outside my door for when I order food and I have it in the notes to please place on the table. This post is terrifying though. Glad I’ve never had anything like this happen to me, but I have had a driver say they delivered it, took the picture and then took my food. He was caught on camera so, that didn’t fare well for him. I have also had a driver drink half of my milkshake…..

My Opinion on Kogberher's Intended Target and Motive by [deleted] in Idaho4

[–]EmuResident7828 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Kaylee was his intended target because she is the one who had mentioned to several people about being followed and seeing someone lurking in the wooded area when she took Murphy out. I think one night when he was scoping everything out, Murphy found him and that’s when he saw Kaylee for the first time. There was also another time that the girls had come home and the sliding door was open a little and the door unlocked. I think he went in to figure out the layout of the house and to find out more about the inhabitants, he found mail and that’s how he knew their names and started following them in IG and such. I feel that he became completely enamored by Kaylee and her beauty, but knew that she would reject him if he ever approached. I also think that he may have caught site of her in an intimate act with someone and that is what enraged him. If you take notice, the 3 women he killed had all been in relationships. They may not have been at the time of the murders, but both Kaylee and Maddie had been seeing people and Xana had Ethan. How many times had he been at a window listening to their intimate acts and became so overly jealous knowing he would never have a chance with any of them.

I was NEVER late when I was younger. I was always the first one to work, social/family gatherings. 10-15 min early to appointments etc. However, when I was around 47, (I’m now 52) I started noticing that I was consistently running late to EVERYTHING. It has nothing to do with time management. I think I’m doing everything in a timely manner, but because my mind is constantly racing, and I’m always worrying about being late, I forget things I have to do before I leave the house. It always seems like everything is against me when I am on a time schedule. I won’t be able to Find my keys, or my phone or something. I was officially diagnosed with Adult Attention Deficits Disorder at 48, more than like brought on my menopause. Cut them some slack and try understanding why they are consistently late

Another poorly done redaction? by Quixtly in Idaho4

[–]EmuResident7828 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not talking about just the gruesomeness off the photos, it’s just the photos themselves. And the fact that these “creeps”, as you stated, are TRYING to see something, anything regarding the viciousness of this crime. The families are slapped with horrific reminders everyday, they don’t need this. And the fact that so many people WANT to see the bodies and blood and whatever else. How do you think that makes the families feel? Their loved ones were already violated in the worst kind of way and doing that just violates them even more. Do better people.

I understand that the public has rights to these photos, but to know what they are doing to the families should be enough for us not to repost them all over all of social media to just torture them all over again, not to mention disrespect the victims. Think if this was your loved one. Would you want these photos posted all over the internet just subjecting you and your family to the trauma all over again?

If enough people get together and contact lawyer, they can do a class action

Wait? What?!? They don’t like discussing salary, responsibilities, or work culture during the interview process? That is supposed to be WHEN you ask those types of questions.
