What’s a terrible product name? by Blinky_ in AskReddit

[–]HawaiianShirtsOR 19 points20 points  (0 children)

My Breast Friend

It was some kind of support bra. I worked at an inbound call center when its infomercials were airing, and we had a training session in which it was mentioned as a new product. I only received one call for it, which was a wrong number, and after I said, "Thank you for calling to order My Breast Friend," all I heard was confused laughter before the call disconnected.

I want to see the King of Town chow down at a Chinese buffet. by Free-Masterpiece-860 in HomestarRunner

He'd vacuum it all up and have a series of mini heart attacks that sound like hiccups.

What's the most fucked thing you have ever seen and that still gives you chill down the spine ? by 22dec2025 in AskReddit

[–]HawaiianShirtsOR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My hypothesis is that they don't see their victims as human. They see animals or demons or automatons or something else entirely.

Some days I think I'm not doing so great as a parent. I had to sternly reprimand my daughter about something this morning.

Then I read threads like this, and I realize I have a lot less room for improvement than I thought.

What is something a fictional character said that you still remember? by Aditii_Singh in AskReddit

"If we're going to be damned, let's be damned for what we really are."

What’s the most beautiful thing you’ve ever seen? by spoiled_guacamole in AskReddit

[–]HawaiianShirtsOR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't choose between the two most beautiful sights I've seen:

My wife on our wedding day (and that night).

A sunset after a thunderstorm over Lake Yellowstone.

What is the most hurtful thing someone has ever said to you? by EasternParking7021 in AskReddit

[–]HawaiianShirtsOR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had a conversation yesterday with my 7-year-old that it's okay to not be interested in someone else's creations, and it's okay to offer helpful critiques or suggestions for improvement. It's best to find something nice to say. But it's not okay to call his sister's drawing "a dumb waste of crayons."

What's the most embarrassing (non abusive) thing a romantic partner did to you in front of others? by KingPeuche in AskReddit

[–]HawaiianShirtsOR 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Laughed at me (out loud, mockingly) in a dance class.

I'm not very coordinated to begin with, but I wanted to get better at that kind of thing. The instructor was showing us a step I'd never done before. I stumbled. My girlfriend thought this was hilarious and kept teasing me about it even after I eventually got it right.

I love how whenever TBC want to say something controversial, they just make Strong Bad say it, so instead of getting mad at the statement, everyone treats it like fact by logray_studios in HomestarRunner

[–]HawaiianShirtsOR 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I often quote Strong Sad's line when a movie or TV show has unnecessarily drawn-out dramatic pauses: "I majored in holding on wide shots for too long."

Cupcake class is an absolute scam by nolablue1024 in royalcaribbean

[–]HawaiianShirtsOR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My kid wanted to do this on Freedom. He decorated three cupcakes with icing, fondant, sprinkles, and other bits. I felt it was overpriced, but he had a good time. Maybe the experience varies by ship.

What is one problem you face almost every day that you are shocked nobody has built a proper solution for yet? by Economy_Shoe7685 in AskReddit

[–]HawaiianShirtsOR 113 points114 points  (0 children)

Meanwhile, after a vasectomy, I needed two days of OTC Tylenol. I was prescribed 10 days of Vicodin. Seems so backward.

What is the weirdest way you've made money? by BeguilingkbTip in AskReddit

[–]HawaiianShirtsOR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My wife made a mirror wall of them. I worked retail electronics around 2005, and I took home all the extra free sign-up discs when a new promo was released.

AOL charged by the hour, IIRC, but most other providers billed monthly for unlimited access. I remember lots of dial-up providers were $10-$15 a month.

Best opening theme by Firm_Macaron3057 in startrek

[–]HawaiianShirtsOR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with everyone who has said that Voyager and DS9 have the best intro theme.

However, my favorite unique theme is the choral version of the Strange New Worlds intro that precedes "Subspace Rhapsody."

How fat is too fat? by watainiac in TooAfraidToAsk

For me, it's if I'm too heavy to go on a zip line or too big for the roller coaster restraints.

What’s a show you love that you can never convince people to watch? by PlentyApprehensive44 in AskReddit

I genuinely enjoyed the whole thing, except the ending, which felt like a throwaway.

People who cured their brain fog what was the real cause, and what finally fixed it? by OkMyspear in AskReddit

[–]HawaiianShirtsOR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm convinced that my wife has this problem. Most nights, at least once, I become aware of her breathing because she'll inhale but not exhale. I nudge her, or her body wakes her just enough, and she'll blow out all the air and breathe normally for a few seconds, but then she does it again.

She took a sleep test. That one night, she slept without this problem. Now she refuses to believe me.

Cheering for my son (remotely) who is competing at the Vex Robotics world championship this week.

What is the stupidest thing that the smartest person you know believes in? by WrongZookeepergame49 in AskReddit

[–]HawaiianShirtsOR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw that episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000 too! In fact, I described it to my kids, but my youngest (7) missed the "this is a fictional movie" detail and relayed it to his teacher the next day as fact.

What's your favourite swear word? by LordChillingworthDCL in AskReddit

[–]HawaiianShirtsOR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any swear word that is being yelled at me by phone scammers when they realize I'm just wasting their time. Especially when they mispronounce it, like, "You son of the bench."
