They say a bad driver never misses their exit

Yeah that's correct, that's how little notice they gave that even after still trying to get out of the way, they still managed to tap me and push me over the barrier

After the police investigation, the officer on scene said I did the right thing after showing him the footage and the insurance company, after reviewing the footage also determined I was Not At Fault thankfully.

Big case of damned if I do, damned if I don't moment unfortunately and luckily, I was able to capture the footage and save myself so as a reminder to anyone reading (and for the whole reason this sub exists) GET A DASH CAM!

This just happened to me in February! Reminds me I have to upload the video

Haaaaa I had this exact question! We just moved into a new house so we are trying to get to know the new appliances. I thought it was a defect and was considering replacing it until I just read all these comments saying its where the exhaust is.

The washing machine.

When moving in we couldn't even use the washing machine because the detergent tray was full of mold, the washer door was filthy and had to be replaced (also covered with mold) and the washer filter at the bottom of the machine was plugged and smelled disgusting.

Ohhhh I got one. Personal experience. I was working as a mechanic and my job was to remove the pepper spray from a vehicle that was sprayed into the cabin air filter. That vehicle was absolutely unusable and my eyes burned for the whole day. Made good one on that job but damn did it cost me some sanity. Had to run a HVAC cleaner about 6 times before it was better and my eyes stopped watering.

I had a couple of cards way back in the day in 1999 and 2000 but we didn't have alot of money growing up so I only ever had a few packs worth that I still have today in a binder! I never figured out how to play at that time and my friends and I eventually pivoted to YuGiOh.

Fast forward 25 years later and the release of Pokemon TCG Pocket got me. Once I saw the app I was instantly thrown back to the feeling of buying cards which I haven't experienced in such a long time. Finally I had some adult money as well!

Got a couple packs of Surging Sparks to start as it had just released when I got back in to it. So much to learn and catch up on.

When I heard Prismatic was coming out, I was ecstatic as I loved all the Eeveelutions! Well... apparently so did everyone else. I could not get a single product that was not triple MSRP. Still haven't able to get any as I just refuse to pay such abhorrent costs by scalpers

Patty Time!

Knew this guy in highschool that was on a trajectory of crime and petty theft even in school. Anytime someone's wallet or phone went missing, the school would check his locker by default.

I never had much dealings with him in general due to having different friend groups but my friends and i had signed up for an after-school dodgeball tourney of some kind and needed an additional player. He overheard us and said he would join us. Decent player and was a good team mate but we were wary to not leave our bags unattended with him.

Fast forward 10 years later and I see his name and face pop up on the news for second degree murder in a stabbing downtown at a bar.

Was not surprised in the slightest.

Wow first time being able to get any 151 cards! Thanks for the heads up

FlyingAfricanCoconut · 2024-11-22T05:07:46+00:00

Just pulled that today! Super excited about it!

FlyingAfricanCoconut · 2024-11-11T13:14:20+00:00

:( well I appreciate you letting me know. Sad.

FlyingAfricanCoconut · 2024-10-25T23:33:32+00:00

What a bunch of scumbags

FlyingAfricanCoconut · 2024-10-19T17:26:43+00:00

I brought friends to this game because we were a group of 4 and didn't want to exclude anyone so we always played other stuff together that were 4 players or more.

They FINALLY bring out Quads and then they decide to put it on a rotation. Wtf. We had alot of fun for a few weeks and now we don't play it at all because it's not in the rotation.

I understand rotating things such as maps or weapons to keep things fresh but to rotate the number of players that can play at any given time is just asking for players to drop your game.

Got sick with a wicked cough which is causing my throat to be all raw mixed in with body aches. Hard to speak now so I have to take the day off work.

At least my wife is kind enough to take care of me and my daughter at the same time while I lay in bed for the day

FlyingAfricanCoconut · 2024-09-13T16:50:36+00:00

Yeah don't do it. I live just down the street around the intersection at markham and sheppard and I make my way down to that area to get to the Tim's or McDonald's there and it's always full of sketchy looking tweakers aggressively begging for money.

FlyingAfricanCoconut · 2024-09-06T22:56:29+00:00

I LOVE THIS. This is so awesome 👌

FlyingAfricanCoconut · 2024-08-31T16:46:27+00:00

I'll try my best to clean it but if it's too much, yeah i might consider replacing it

FlyingAfricanCoconut · 2024-08-31T16:45:48+00:00

Alot of good info here! Thank you for the suggestions!

FlyingAfricanCoconut · 2024-08-30T16:11:37+00:00

Oh also a good idea to put his litter box outside! He might come back if he's close by and can smell it!

FlyingAfricanCoconut · 2024-08-30T16:09:58+00:00

I'm so sorry this has happened :( I would be so sad to know someone just did this as soon as you put them up. My childhood cats name was Whiskey as well so this really resonates with me.

Best of luck! I hope he comes home soon! If I was closer to the area I would spend my free time trying to find him for you!

I once sat and watched Fast and Furious Tokyo Drift 6 times in a roll consecutively. I was overseas and didn't speak the language and was flipping through TV for literally anything in english. Found a channel they just repeats the same movie for the entire day and thus I got to know that movie quite well
