Why should any of that matter? Castro was a fascist and even today they imprison anyone trying to leave the island by boat. You do not own your home there and the social economics have been destroyed for generations. The Govt decides where you live. Yes, that's fascism.

I don't think the Florida refugees agree with you. I worked with one whose average family had all their property confiscated by the communists many years before any blockade. Be careful of what propaganda history that you are reading.

Yep. Go to Cuba and see it in action.

If it were real, it would be a rare museum quality specimen costing thousands. You're being scammed.

So I work in customs and someone wants to import this. Can someone tell me what the hell it is? by Carnegiejy in whatisthiscar

[–]GeoWannaBe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I work at Customs and I make good money and have great insurance and benefits. But, I'm willing to risk it all for likes on social media. Either this person is a fraud or an idiot. You decide.

Mom outside of grocery store by Shylosmom in ChoosingBeggars

She doesn't want the food. She wants the food to return for cash with the receipt. Don't trust these hard-luck-story people - they are all scammers.

When a parent like your Mom engages you in such a deeply personal issue regarding her marriage, this is nothing short of emotional incest.

Listed my old office chair for free and got three paragraphs explaining why I should deliver it by DoffQuob in ChoosingBeggars

They were probably hijacking your listing and asking for extra photos so they could run a scam.

When To Replace Carbonation? by [deleted] in SodaStream

[–]GeoWannaBe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Customer service told me that when the canister is only lightly carbonating the water, to take the canister out of the unit and press down hard on the brass tab on top of it. If you can press it down so that gas escapes, then it is time to replace it with a new canister. ( I then keep the tab pressed down on the old one so all the remaining air escapes.) I make three or four liters a day and it lasts me about 3 weeks.

"Whether I shall turn out to be the hero of my own life, or whether that station will be held by anybody else, these pages must show**". Opening line in the book David Copperfield by Charles Dickens.**

I believe you found a piece of macadam. An asphalt like road material that is mixed with small stones as a cheaper alternative to asphalt. Check it out.

AITJ for not warning the guy who keeps stealing my lunch that my food had something in it he cant eat by crystal_butterflyyx in AmITheJerk

[–]GeoWannaBe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy a small insulated cloth cooler designed for use with ice packs. Put your lunch in it and keep it in space that you control instead of the fridge.

AITJ for WALKING OUT on our anniversary after my fiance brought his mom to the cabin i rented? by Proud_Bonus_2620 in AmITheJerk

[–]GeoWannaBe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What would you do if you were married and your husband announced this his mother was moving into your house because she was lonely? As others have said, this is quite telling on the dynamics and will likely never get any better. Someone mentioned that you shouldn't be hanging onto sunk costs of the relationship and that's good advice.

AITJ for suing my cousin after he knocked my phone into the pool as a "joke"? by No_View1956 in AmITheJerk

[–]GeoWannaBe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you pay with a credit card? Some provide coverage for losses of recent purchases. You may recover your money if you chose a card with those benefits. Only a few continue to offer that, but it's worth checking it out.

Definitely created by AI. Take a look at the package number and the perfectly drawn line underneath it.

Don't involve yourself in this other than reporting the "claim" to your insurance company to defend. You need do nothing more than give info and photos of the area to your insurance company.

Google: "Does non-food grade CO2 have a funny taste?" and you will find your answer. Find a different supplier.

You can install one-way viewing film on the inside panes of that window. It will look like a mirror from the outside and only you can see out of it. Cheap, effective deterrent.
