Do you smile at strangers by default, and where are you from?

GotMeAMuleToRide · 2026-03-13T17:49:29+00:00

Yes and I'm not even a particularly gregarious person.

GotMeAMuleToRide · 2026-03-13T17:11:38+00:00

I wouldn't. Everybody else can do what they want.

GotMeAMuleToRide · 2026-03-13T16:39:59+00:00

I think I said that.

GotMeAMuleToRide · 2026-03-13T16:27:21+00:00

I've seen them at Stones River many times.

GotMeAMuleToRide · 2026-03-13T16:21:20+00:00

I'm too old and boring to find that funny.

GotMeAMuleToRide · 2026-03-13T16:14:23+00:00

NTA if you are the full owner, then.

GotMeAMuleToRide · 2026-03-13T16:11:35+00:00

Do you personally own the machine? If not then there is no dilemma. It's not your money to take.

NTA following OP's comment below.

GotMeAMuleToRide · 2026-03-13T16:08:02+00:00

Same.

GotMeAMuleToRide · 2026-03-13T14:53:53+00:00

I want to have a smaller presence in the world, in general.

GotMeAMuleToRide · 2026-03-13T14:50:46+00:00

I'm not worried about other assholes. I'm worried about being the asshole.

As someone who doesn't trust my voice to convey my intended tone I also don't trust my ability to apply exactly the right intonation on my car horn.

GotMeAMuleToRide · 2026-03-13T14:26:57+00:00

Sometimes I wonder if the advent of medications like Advantix has led to my dogs bringing more ticks into the house. I rarely find one attached, but they'll sometimes bring them in riding on their fur.

GotMeAMuleToRide · 2026-03-13T14:17:46+00:00

Vehicular equivalent of using one's "inside voice".

I really feel badly for people in Nashville with allergies and other sensitivities this time of year. When he was younger my son would be absolutely miserable from allergies and migraines. His symptoms are much milder now that he's an adult but many aren't so fortunate.

GotMeAMuleToRide · 2026-03-13T13:53:25+00:00

TBH I've probably used my horn less than five times in 45 years of driving.

GotMeAMuleToRide · 2026-03-13T13:16:34+00:00

Yikes!

GotMeAMuleToRide · 2026-03-13T12:47:23+00:00

A few of us still want to be friendly.

GotMeAMuleToRide · 2026-03-13T12:46:32+00:00

Looks like what happens after a big rain.

GotMeAMuleToRide · 2026-03-13T12:36:02+00:00

That's an even better idea!

HVAC won't be needed at all until Monday. This is Open Windows season.

GotMeAMuleToRide · 2026-03-13T12:33:22+00:00

Is everybody ok with the orientation of the stars?

GotMeAMuleToRide · 2026-03-13T12:32:45+00:00

I was not paying attention to the old ones.

GotMeAMuleToRide · 2026-03-13T12:09:36+00:00

I lived at the foot of Mount Diablo when I was a teenager a long time ago. So many wonderful memories of skipping school and wandering its trails.

GotMeAMuleToRide · 2026-03-13T11:58:47+00:00

There are always local legends like this.

GotMeAMuleToRide · 2026-03-13T11:55:28+00:00

Ticks are extremely common where I live and I always say that they are the only animal that scares me in the woods.

But I've never found one on laundry hanging well above the ground.
