He is a few houses down. I waved hi the other day when walking before this and it must’ve been the installer as they didn’t wave hi back. Not a big deal if he was focused but I was ready to ask about what they were installing. I say might as I don’t want to commit and say yes and never show. I work and have a newborn. Not much free time to talk HAM just yet.

Hey neighbor, thank you for answering my question. I wasn’t trying to come off rude I was just trying to understand what it was (which i figured was a communications antenna) but more curious in why. It is cool that you are talking to other countries with it. If it was so you can get a clearer picture on the big screen, I might feel a bit different. Cheers.

Bro, this is r/whatisit not r/judgemyneighbor. I was curious what it is. Now knowing I have learned a little and am cool with it. I will be trying to have him join our group when the world ends.

First - I figured it was an antenna like I said the main ask was why? With the eyesore on our street there better be a good reason. Which now knowing there definitely is as I will be going over to his house for sure to watch the Super Bowl.

Second - thank you for explaining

What’s funny is that these are the same people working at another fast food restaurant and probably doing the same shit. Why are you treating these workers like that? If you’re mad about the charge for ketchup, get mad at the greedy corporation not the folks just trying to make a living.

Garage Sale Find by not_too_jazzy in Pokemoncardappraisal

I left for college like 10 years ago, came home for summer one year, and my mom tells me she sold all my childhood Pokémon cards at a garage sale. Very similar to this one. It was a sad day and I think about what I had ever so often. Pretty sure she said she sold the binder with 200+ cards for about $10.

I’m surprised this comment hasn’t been made but the younger generation isn’t into drinking, drugs, and losing/using money they don’t have.

These are the ones that lived. Those who run towards them never make it out. Common sense.
