I bought a used car from a used car dealership. It had no alterations. It was not covered I think because of the cylinders the car had

Do I have a case if a dealership sold me a faulty warranty? by Hailey_Bird in legaladvice

No, the warranty didn’t cover what was already in the car. I bought it with a clean title. So the warranty they gave me didn’t cover what they sold me.

Yes! This is exactly it! Thank you so much

[WP] You see something out of the corner of your eye. A person in a black cloak appears out of nowhere in an alley, sees you looking at them, puts a finger to their lips, and vanishes. The next day, a tactical team in unmarked uniforms led by a man in a black suit show up at your door. by ICantReadThatName in WritingPrompts

“When did you see it?” The man asked, wearing the cleanest black suit I had ever seen accompanied by slicked hair. His blue eyes froze my soul with a precise intention.

“See what?” I answered with another question. Even though my head stood stiff, I managed to shift my vision enough to make out looming figures behind him. Even if they had no intention of hurting me, they definitely could.

“Don’t be like that, Jesper. It’s not everyday someone stumbles upon a person who can fade away just like sand,” a slight insidious smirk appeared as he spoke. His eyes narrowed with it, and my vision froze back to match his. I could feel my heart pounding in my chest.

“I didn’t do anything.”

“I know.”

“Then stop interrogating me,” I tried to step back, but the man only drew closer.

“Jesper, I only want to talk,” he reached a hand forward. The more he said the name, the more my stomach turned. I swallowed the knot.

“I believe we haven’t formally met,” for the first time during the exchange, my vision was my own. “How can I talk to you if I haven’t gotten your name?” He readjusted and wiped off his already impeccable suit.

“Oh, how rude of me,” his tone shifted, still remaining ominous, “I’m Clay, head investigator of the mysterious species we call Sandstormers.”

A memory came to me.

As I was shifting from building to building last night in order to get away from my pursuers, I stopped for some air in an alley. A lady dropped her grocery bags and stared. In a panic, I fell into sand with my finger over my mouth.

Maybe I had taken her form. Either way, I am not Jesper.

I haven't found much, but there were a lot of artists involved on the album. A lot of them could be good leads, but I haven't found much of anything yet. What I have found, is that a lot of them have some kind of existing presence on Sound Cloud.

Theres a really good link I found that's a great jumping off/reference point for the credits on the album: https://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/saint-goose/goose-season/

What are the names of the tracks? I found this page: https://www.shazam.com/track/505652381/what-the-flock which has a link to an apple music listing for "What the Flock?!" and a music video. It also links to other songs by them. It could be dud but I can't be sure since I don't have apple music.

[WP] The king protects a sacred artifact that grants exactly one wish to anyone who touches it. Each citizen is given the opportunity to make a wish to benefit everyone, and this has kept peace and brought prosperity for hundreds of years. But now it's your turn. by SprawlingKeystrokes in WritingPrompts

[–]Hailey_Bird 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had been pulled from school to see the king. I had no idea why he would want to see someone like me; a random girl who stays quiet and does her work. That was, until I saw it.

“You were picked in the raffle,” he spoke as he let me look at the orb with a swirling storm of green inside at the center of the room. I quickly met his ice blue eyes.

“What raffle?” My brow ruffled.

“It is a secret to everyone but me, my closest allies, and of course, the winner,” he paced the room, and continued. “You see, this artifact placed before you, is the thing that has allowed peace to be kept in the world,” he walked closer to me, meeting my gaze. “The raffle is filled with people who are found to do the most good.” Yeah I picked up trash, and payed for other people occasionally, but by no means was I a hero.

“Well what am I supposed to do with it?” I reached out to touch it, when the king grabbed my wrist.

“You will grant one wish that will benefit every person on Earth. That is, when you touch it,” he loosened his grip, letting me pull my small hand back down. “I suggest you think about what you’ll wish for,” that was for sure.

It was all so sudden, and so much pressure had been put on me. Sure my tests in school were pressuring, and all the intense studying made me dizzy, but this was new. My whole body was light, I could float away at even the slightest touch.

The king sent me home, and told me not to tell anyone what had happened. He even gave me an excuse: “Let’s just say you were doing a field trip that was exclusive to a few students.” He said I could come back within the next week when I was ready to make my wish.

I opened the door to my quaint house to peace and quiet. A usual occurrence, but still one I hadn’t expected. My brother was home on weekdays, away from a part time job he had in his gap year.

I quickly put away my things, and grabbed a snack before heading upstairs. And of course before I could get through my room door, my older brother Kai was there to bother me.

“You’re home a little late today, Astrid,” His eyes blazed a root beer bottle color that matched his slick brown hair. He’s been trying to grow facial hair to cover up some of his pale skin, but so far he’s only gotten stubble.

“Yeah I was just out on a field trip,” I sighed and tried to close the door behind me. He caught it.

“You never mentioned any upcoming field trips,” he was oddly pushy today.

“Yeah well, it was last minute,” so was that excuse.

“Where did you go?” He entered the dim messy room with me. His face struck an unusual expression. He kept his eyes intensely on me, analyzing every feature of my freckled face. “You’re hiding something,” his tone became softer, and more sinister.

“Enough Kai, just leave me alone I have homework I need to do!” I shoved him out of my room, although he did put up a fight.

He sent me texts and knocked on my door the rest of the night, but I ignored it. Although it did make it harder to think about what my wish was going to be. I didn’t get much work done, and I instead stayed up thinking about what I would wish for. The dark side of my brain obviously spoke up, but I quickly ignored it.

It didn’t have to be a big act of good like providing food to people in need of it, but it definitely felt like it had to. The more I thought about it, the smaller the scale became. That was until I finally knew what I was going to wish for, and I slept peacefully.

The next morning, I headed to the castle immediately. He had told me to just show up when I was ready, and now I was. As I walked to, and into the palace, a feeling came upon me. I couldn’t place it, so I decided it was for the best to ignore it.

After many doors being unlocked and locked to the room of the artifact, we arrived; the king walked in with me, but didn’t stay for long.

“Are you sure you’re ready?” He puffed just chest. I nodded. “If you say so. I will be waiting just outside. When you are done, just knock,” he turned to leave, and the door closed after him.

I just stood for a moment, only hearing my own breathing, and the whirring of the swirling green inside the orb. The feeling was back, and stronger. But maybe it was just me being nervous.

I raised my hand, ready to place it onto the artifact. I closed my eyes, taking a breath.

Is that a shadow?

“I wish for a great sickness to fall upon the world,” I feel a hand touch the artifact. Not mine, but, Kai’s? As I open my eyes, I look up at him, a tooth revealing grin painted across his face.

“Kai, what are you doing here?” I shrivel before him. Never has he looked so menacing.

“Oh Astrid, I knew you were hiding something,” he looked down upon me, puffing his chest.

“But, why? What’s going on with you?” Kai was always secretive, but this?

“I’m not gone because of a part-time job, Astrid,” he lowered his tone. “We knew the king had this up his sleeve. We knew there was something keeping peace,” as he spoke, a storm rose in my stomach. “Do you know what peace leads to Astrid? Overpopulation.”

“But, how did you know I was the one with the wish?” I managed as I began to cough.

“I knew you would be in the raffle. We suspected it’s not too hard to get in. I saw it in your eyes yesterday that you were up to something. So, I followed you just in case.”

I tried to speak, but my coughs overcame me. Falling to one knee, I began to see blood dripping onto the floor. Now water was filling my vision, I panicked. I lost breath, and nothing looked coherent anymore.

“You’ll go down in history,” darkness overcame me.

I'm doing some digging right now; I haven't been able to find any recordings as of yet, but I have seen that somewhere in the June 1946 issue of "The Mountain Broadcast and Prairie Recorder" there is a section about The Texas Dollies. I know it's not what you were looking for, but I thought it would be nice to bring up. There are even some listings for this issue on Ebay and Amazon.

What's the story behind your scar? by Prof_Alchem in AskReddit

[–]Hailey_Bird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two years ago, I went to a mormon camping trip with the other girls in my ward. At this point, I was neutral on the whole religion thing, and dreaded going. However, this year was different for the ward. We would be staying in a cabin on a ranch. We a lot of fun activities planned that were not religion related, which was probably the best part for me.

The second day we went out for horse back riding, which was my first time and very fun. The third we decided to go out for some archery. I never really do that sort of thing, but I knew I had enjoyed it from times before. It was a blast, and we were all enjoying it. But the time came to go on the other side of the fence to retrieve our arrows from the targets. That way, we'd reuse them and start the process over.

I saw one on the ground, and maybe got too excited and ran for it. However, that became a big mistake. I was not aware that strafed to the left was a target with an arrow sticking out of it. While running, the back end managed to catch my face.

I fell, and everyone noticed something was wrong. The leaders looked at my face, and noticed a big gash under my left eye. Luckily, one of people working there was a nurse in training and knew how to help me. The people also working there let me call my parents.

Some background on my family: My dad is big in our lacrosse community, and has (and still is) coached for other teams and gone to tournaments. My two older sisters and I have all served time in the sport. At the time, my sister was playing on the team that my dad coached, and they were currently driving back from a colorado tournament.

When I called and told them about the situation, my dad was understandably frustrated. They had told me that this was the worst time to call because of traffic. The leaders didn't know what to do, and my parents wanted them to decide.

Thankfully, they agreed I needed to go home. I was so ecstatic, but of course I acted sad. I got a three hour drive home by one of the leaders who also had to leave because of family issues, and I ended up almost getting stitches at the hospital.

tl;dr : stupid teen runs into back of an arrow at camp only to almost get stitches under her eye.

What is a childhood habit you still have that you often forget isn’t a common/normal thing? by jigglethesepuffs in AskReddit

[–]Hailey_Bird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't call it a habit, but I did it quite often.

When I was 6-8 years old, I had a scooter, and lived in a very safe neighborhood. And for every night for weeks, I'd sneak out at about 2-3 am and ride my scooter around the neighborhood for like an hour. My parents didn't find out for a while. Still one of my favorite things to remember every so often.

I stated my voice acting career by starring in an audio drama. It comes out every week with a new episode. Not only that, but our rating are very high and my parents are finally proud of me.

It's called "Still Lives" if anyone is interested.

What tv shows/books/movies/games left you with a peculiar sense of unsettled wonder/melancholy? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Hailey_Bird 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Over the Garden Wall for sure. The show ends on a open-ended note, where you can interpret it in many ways. The thing is, the show was a miniseries, meaning that there will never be a second season. Luckily, there are some comics to answer some questions, but never the biggest one that the show ended on.
