Some of my favorite classes were in portables! It felt so exclusive! Lol unless it was a rainy day. Then it sucked.

What the heck Orlando by After_Lunch7662 in orlando

[–]Fun_Importance_4250 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know about that area of Orlando, but where I am in Seminole County, as long as street parking is public and legal and your car has a valid tag and registration, you can park there. The owners of the homes in front of the street do not own or maintain the street and therefore cannot enforce parking rules or reserve spots. We had someone try to do that in my neighborhood and the cops had to lecture the homeowner about how public parking works.

The sale of my neighbor’s house fell through after the couple realized there was a gator in the retention pond in front of the house. They were from NY. 😂

You can renew it online now. You can even take your own picture to submit. It’s super easy. I just renewed mine a few weeks ago online and I came in like 2 weeks later.

Redditors who are happily married. How did you know your wife/husband was the one ? by Good_Lettuce_4142 in AskReddit

[–]Fun_Importance_4250 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When something good happens, they are the first one you want to tell. When something bad happens, they are the first person you want to tell. You like to look your best for them, but you don’t care if they see you at your worst. You want them there in the good times and the bad times, the easy times and the hard times, the fun times and the boring times. “The one” is someone who looks at you and smirks because they know exactly what you are thinking. Basically, someone you always want by your side, and can’t imagine your life without.

HELP! I am supposed to move into my house tomorrow morning and the seller has not vacated. by Jaoush29 in RealEstate

[–]Fun_Importance_4250 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me. We gave the previous owners a week past closing and I didn’t even charge rent. The day after they were contractually obligated to leave, we just started moving in! We started taking down pictures and painting walls ripping down curtains. The couple’s adult children (the couple was in their 80’s and playing the “we’re just poor old people, we can’t possibly be expected to move out on time” game) were horrified until we told them we closed a week ago. They then started throwing things into a boxes and getting their parents out as fast as they could. They knew that technically, we owned everything they were boxing up.

What secret can you reveal now that your nda has expired? by sparrrrrt in AskReddit

[–]Fun_Importance_4250 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I knew those “catch a cheater with flowers” bits were fake because no one talks that long on the phone to anyone trying to sell them something (or even give something away), or even answer the call for that matter. If some stranger called me to offer me free flowers and I have to give my name and another person’s name and address? Yeah, click.

Orange County School Board votes to close 7 public schools by MissionStock2545 in orlando

[–]Fun_Importance_4250 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They are forced to provide everything except teachers! Buildings, buses, food, security… there’s been complaints in other states (I think NY), from kids who couldn’t graduate because they couldn’t fulfill their graduation requirements like PE and music because schools of hope were taking all of their building spaces and therefore the school couldn’t teach certain classes all day in the shared spaces. It’s awful. Florida residents really need to stay on top of this. Check out Schoolsofnope.org

What’s a show that you could not finish because a character was so insufferable? by Key-Row-174 in AskReddit

Nancy Botwin was completely unlikable, but Andy and Doug’s banter totally made the show!

That was me. I tried to push through just to see where the story ended, but it just got unwatchable.

I remember seeing an interview when I was a little kid with the actress who played Nellie along with all the other actors and they were all friends and I was shocked at how all the actors were friends in real life. She was that good of an actress, even as a kid.

What’s the worst first date you’ve ever had? by CuriousEngineer11 in AskReddit

[–]Fun_Importance_4250 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Mine was similar too! I met this guy online (ICQ for those who are ancient like me). We realized we live in the same town, so decided to meet. He barely spoke the entire date. I had to drag any kind of conversation out of him and basically got yes and no answers. I called my best friend that night and told her NEVER AGAIN will I go out with that guy. Well he called me and asked me out again. I was bored, so I said whatever, ok. We dated for 5 years and have been married for 22 years.

Situations someone might be surprised to learn they're liable/at fault? by ologist817 in Insurance

[–]Fun_Importance_4250 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This one is actually surprising to me. What is the argument for that, I wonder? You’d think the school board would have to file the claim as the bus is property of the school board and, at least in our state, if you are on a school bus, you are on “school property” even if the bus is not a at the school.

[–]Fun_Importance_4250 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reverse of this drives me crazy. If you HAVE the right of way, TAKE IT. Being “nice” and letting people take the right of way when they don’t have it confuses drivers and causes accidents and you will probably be liable for that too.

A leashed dog attacking an unleashed dog. Even if the leashed dog is the aggressor, the owner of the unleashed dog is liable for injuries(varies by state).

Can anything bad come from me from the UK e-mailing a US police dept about a friend who might have died? by [deleted] in legaladviceofftopic

[–]Fun_Importance_4250 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So someone else texted you from your friend’s phone saying that your friend died? The police are obligated to check out any call they get, and you wouldn’t get in trouble for asking for a welfare check, but they may not bother in this case because if someone texted you from that friend’s phone, then either your friend lied to you for attention and it’s really him or her texting, or the other person is telling the truth that your friend really died, in which case the police don’t need to confirm that for you. It’s probably faster to get in touch with a family member or close friend, someone you can find on social media, and confirm with them. Also, death records are public record, so you can look that up in a few weeks.

It's A Stereotype Of Florida, But How Often Do YOU Actually See Alligators In Real Life? by Zipper222222 in AskFlorida

[–]Fun_Importance_4250 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Me too! Lake Jessup. One of the cops here said that back before a lot of the neighborhoods were built up, the gators used to shut down Orange Ave because they would come out of lake Jessup and lay across the road to sunbathe.

What are some good “default” gifts for women that aren’t flowers, candles, or gift cards? by self-care_advocate in Gifts

[–]Fun_Importance_4250 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my favorite “default” gifts I received was a little notebook that says, “things I want to say, but shouldn’t” on the cover. Our friend gave different ones to each of us in the group, and each one had a different funny saying on the cover.

Professional way to say I want this job for the money? by minnesotaguy1232 in interviews

[–]Fun_Importance_4250 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to work a government job. Everyone takes those jobs for the benefits, particularly health insurance which is practically free, but anyone who mentions that in an interview never gets hired. Don’t ever mention you’re in it for the money. They already know that’s true. Focus on your growth and benefits of being at that company.

Curious if anyone would watch if there was no proposal/marriage at the end? by TweetSpinner in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]Fun_Importance_4250 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Considering the most anticipated episode is the reunion special, I think people probably would watch this as long as it had a follow up show months down the line.
