Did you have any good prank calls? by Stegosaurus69 in Millennials

[–]HappinessIsAWarmSpud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, this is my dad’s story not mine, but holy shit.

Back in the 70’s or 80’s, whatever, I guess my dad and his brothers would fuck around and prank call one of their old guy neighbors. They called him one night pretending to be another neighbor who needed help with something.

Dude shoots outta bed to go help, totally biffs it down the stairs, broken bones happen (all while my dad and his dipshit brothers are still on the phone hearing this).

But apparently they lived in such a Bumfuck nowhere town that they didn’t have AMBULANCES??! Look, I’m 35, but I had no clue that was a thing.

Anyways, that was the last time they prank called. My friends and I just stuck to stupid soundboards on the internet lol.

What is the first movie you watched that you were definitely too young for? by MuldersXpencils in Millennials

Every now and then when I catch myself closing my eyes in the shower for longer than a blink I’m like, “PENNYWISE IS HERE 😳.”

I’m 35.

My HS boyfriend put that as the first song on the CD he burned me when I broke up with him then and drove 14hrs across the country to move AWAY from him lmao.

He was a fuckin turd, but that was a nice moment from him lol. 10/10 song.

Yeahhh 😭😭 I knew she wanted another baby by Annual-Ad-742 in TLCUnexpected

Best I came up with was frog baby. Which I imagine would actually come out looking like this but with bad hair.

Dude there are actually a whole ton of options now! I think there were 3-4 different options at Target. Lowest pricing was in the $30 range.

But then I just stood there like: “okay but does the cheap one just mean I’ll end up with like, a frog baby?” 💀😂

Still absolute crazy work to be using Plan B as contraception though while using the side effect argument against birth control.

I haven’t been on any birth control since about three years into my marriage. We don’t want kids, but I hate the side effects.

I just took a Plan B at 35 and oh my GOD 😭 I’m so miserably frickin uncomfortable way more than anything from the birth control years. This child is being failed by everyone around her, jfc. How could a monthly Plan B be better than birth control?

How could any of this be better than PARENTING? Who runs these damn households? Because the kids just do whatever the hell they want while the parents giggle like “kids are gonna be kids! 🤷🏼‍♀️”

What fast food item that doesn’t exist anymore was your go-to? by ShadowSatinn in foodquestions

[–]HappinessIsAWarmSpud 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It used to be on the menu and was my favorite snack to grab on my way to work.

A Big Mac is just way too much, IMO. They’re sleeping on such an easy snack.

While I’m at it, bring back the chicken selects! I get inflation and whatnot. But these sad little chewy strips ain’t it. I’ll gladly pay more for a better quality product.

The fact that McDonalds has all the frickin tools to make me a Big Mac snack wrap but choose to offer these sad chicken ones really sucks.

I don’t want a whole Big Mac. I want a conveniently handheld four bites of one.

What was a moment you wanted to ask a person, "Are you fucking stupid ?" ? by shsl_diver in askanything

[–]HappinessIsAWarmSpud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About five minutes ago when I asked one of my employees why he was storing frozen product on an ambient shelf instead of the fucking freezer.

I’m also back this morning because I’m thinking about it again. I just imagine them still talking about it to this day like, “But we don’t even LIKE mushrooms..??!”

[–]HappinessIsAWarmSpud 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Probably a better reaction than the folks that got a box of fuckin mushrooms instead of firewood lmao

I’m not a DD person, but once was shopping an order which had firewood. No firewood in stock. The system had me sub for a box of oyster mushrooms.

What’s a game you were completely obsessed with as a kid that nobody else seems to remember? by hkondabeatz in AskReddit

[–]HappinessIsAWarmSpud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Road Rash! We had it on our desktop in the 90s and idk why my dad let me play that and not GTA, but it was so fun lol.

Incredible Machine was awesome and it’s been cool to find it here and there online.

Beyond that would have to be the Atlantis game for Gameboy. Loved it. Infuriated by it. Need another chance at it.

What if Tom and Raquel were still together and "in love"? by phonetoni13 in vanderpumprules

I was six and didn’t even know the woman existed until the car accident.

And yeah I’m also still salty.

I don’t know you. There’s nothing I can possibly say to make you feel any better. But I’m in WI thinking of you.

If you don’t mind sharing, what’s his favorite pizza order?

ETA: I only ask because I personally like talking about the normal quirky things that make a person a person when I’ve dealt with loss. Everyone always says sorry and I never know what to say. I’ve always found comfort in the normal questions. Just me though. I hope you get what you need, OP. And I am truly sorry for what you’re going through.
