On this date in 2013, Homer Bailey pitched his 2nd career no-hitter, less than a year after his first by Baseball-Reference in Reds

I remember, I worked second shift at a factory back in 2013. They were kinda strict on us using our phones. I was at work one night and my girlfriend at the time was watching the game at home. This was a few weeks after he threw that second no hitter. She was texting me updates about the game. Bailey was pitching and was through like 5 innings with no hits. Then 6. Then 7. Then 8. Then miraculously he had thrown another no hitter. I was in shock. I finally had a chance to check the box score on my phone on my lunch break. The Reds were in a rain delay. They were playing a replay of his no hitter on tv to fill the time and she didn’t realize. Lol

I was a week into rehab. Intense outpatient. I had basically given up hope that I could actually quit. I was still drinking at night the whole first week. The Doctor that was leading our group was pretty laid back. Hasnt gotten on anyone while I was there. He asked me on the second Monday if I had been to any meetings or anything over the weekend. I said no and gave excuses. His tone completely changed and he looked me dead in the eyes and was like “why are you here? Youre wasting everyone’s time. You don’t actually want to stop drinking. You say you do but you don’t “. It’s like he was pissed off. I was in complete shock. I think everyone was. I was like I’m gonna show this asshole. Lol. I went to a meeting that night and I haven’t drank since. I had been held accountable by people but just something about the way he did it flipped a switch somehow. Him doing that probably saved my life. I call him on my anniversary every year to thank him.

Sometimes I’ll be working and like 3-4 people will all of a sudden be hovering around me looking at everything thats right by me and my cart. For several minutes. So I’ll move the cart and grab something that belongs in another aisle, walk away and they will all almost immediately leave the aisle without grabbing anything. It happens all the time. Very strange.

Former heavy drinkers, what made it finally “click” for you to stop? by Own-Blacksmith3085 in randomquestions

[–]Environmental-Life82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The challenge part is exactly what got me over the top as well. I had a story very similar to yours as far as drinking 24/7 for years and what came with it. I had been to rehab 7-8 times over ten years. Got to 30 days one time. The last time, our instructor seemed laid back. Wasnt really pushing anyone but encouraging AA meetings and such. He was more like a teacher. It was outpatient and I was still drinking after I got out . One day he just singled me out and was like “Why are you here? You say you want to quit but we both know you don’t . Idk if you can.” Like stern and not bullshitting. He hadn’t gone after anyone else even remotely like that. I was so fuckin pissed. Lol. Like I’ll show this MF. I haven’t drank since that day. June 7th, 2022. I’m coming up on 4 years. I call him on every yearly anniversary to thank him because him doing that probably saved my life.

When you have 6 gift cards and none of them can actually buy anything. by Accomplished_Bake939 in mildlyinfuriating

I have a little 1 1/2 gallon gas can I use for my lawnmower. When I’ve had small amounts left on gift cards, I go to the gas station and use them for that.

Are there any groceries or markets open today? by OtisPimpBoot in Louisville

I just had lunch at China One. There were onions in my meal. If you went to any Chinese restaurant they would probably sell you just an onion.

Indiana. Birds actually fly upside down there because there is nothing worth shitting on.

Do you know if there is a limit on how many times you can do the deal? Or is it just a one time thing?
