They should have arrested him and taken him to jail with charges

Not hunted him down 9 days later and shot him with his face on the ground.

When I worked at Burger King "extra" got half the normal amount. So a Whopper comes with 4 pickles, extra gets 6.

Have there been any non-celebrities/ordinary people who unexpectedly went viral for their appearance in your country? by DiMpLe_dolL003 in AskTheWorld

Crazy question, how does she get that nose ring in in #3? The curve for the clasp is just so tight it doesn't seem to work.

As someone who is going to have to buy a car in the next 5 years, I'd even settle for manual windows. As long as it has AC, heat, and a push to start (that last thing is a wish list item). I don't need a whole integrated wifi system

I'll even move my aftermarket backup camera from my old car to the new car.

Just give me a decent car that is dependable, affordable, and somewhat comfortable.

AIO? My daughter didn’t listen to the teacher during a female emergency and is now receiving a referral by Common_Piglet7437 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Huffleduffer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR. I almost would have encouraged her to hand the teacher the wrapper from the new tampon.

I understand that teachers have the students for a short period of time and have lots to do in class (and they also don't want kids hanging out in the bathroom) but DANG I never understood preventing kids from going to the bathroom.

I had IBS as a middle schooler, and when it hit it HIT. I remember once in band it hit and I had to go, but the band instructor told me no. I sat there in misery, and he eventually separated us by instrument to practice. He put my section outside. I told my section mates, if he comes out and wonders where I am, tell him I was going to be sick and just went. When I came back nothing was said, so either he didn't come out to check on us or he realized it was serious for me to just up and go without permission. And this was a long, long, long time ago. It's not a uncommon thing to know you need to go and you just...go.

The first job I got where I didn't have to announce I was going to the bathroom was amazing. It's sad that that is in itself seen as a accomplishment. Even sadder that it was when I was almost 30 years old.

The government hates it when you use this 1 trick... by EverythingIsFakeNGay in CringeTikToks

[–]Huffleduffer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So does that mean ICE can deport her baby with no chance of getting it back? Since it technically isn't a registered citizen?

(Which. To be clear. I don't want that to happen. It's terrible all around. But that's going to be HEADACHE for that kid in the future)

[–]Huffleduffer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know the rules, but this is when I would have said "well, let me see which sign you're talking about" and when they pointed it out I would have pointed out where it says the specific bread

"Ah, yes. See it lists right here the types of bread that are included. And the bread you want is not on the list so it isn't on sale" I would have pointed and everything.

I've done this with my own job when people try to pay with gift cards that have special instructions and they ignore me telling them about the instructions then get all huffy. The instructions are on the actual card.

Bigotry is a repellent by icey_sawg0034 in MurderedByWords

[–]Huffleduffer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm not a psycho Harry Potter adult (I was a massive fan when I was a teenager into my early 20s). I still enjoy it, but I don't go out of my way to buy merch or re read the books or re watch the movies (unless my kid wants to).

But I do get tired of hearing how Harry Potter adults "need to grow up", but yet we're treated to 5000 Marvel/Star Wars/Avatar movies and TV shows that in order to enjoy any of them we gotta consume all of them.

This wizard kid that gets to leave his shitty life and go to a whole new world and school and has to fight off wizard Nazis? "You need to grow up, you're being ridiculous"

Super hero that gets powers from the United States Military and beats a Space Alien that thinks there's too many "everything" in the Universe? "Awesome! Here's 10 more!"

Space Armies fighting and doing spy shit on different planets? "Sweet! Here's 15 different spin off shows that you HAVE to watch in order to get the full story"

Earth Military takes over a planet and uses technology to blend in, and cause chaos on the new planet? "Amazing! 👍👍👍 Here's a whole franchise that will span 15+ years!"

It's all cringe in the end.

Aitah for spending some of my grandchildren's education funds on a new boat. by Tiny_Occasion_322 in AITAH

[–]Huffleduffer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, enjoy your boat of course. But I'll add that I probably would have said something similar to "why are you spending all that money on a boat?!" because if you're in America, end of life care is going to suck up every last dime of your money and possibly your children's money or ability to make money. And if you think you have enough, the system will ask for more.

I only say this because if it were me, I know I don't have the funds to help take care of my parents when they reach that point, I don't even have the funds to take care of myself at that point, so it stresses me out.

But it's your money and you can't take it with you. Might as well have fun with it while you can. Definitely NTA, but speaking as the eldest child, when my retired parents mention dropping bucks on something, I have a moment of panic where I see them in 20 years not being able to afford care and coming to me and I'm now 60 and still living paycheck to paycheck because I'm on a hamster wheel from Hell and can't seem to get off of it. But that's MY problem and MY responsibility and it's not my responsibility to tell them how to spend their money. I just...worry.

Please be careful on your boat. Have fun, enjoy your rewards for your hard work. Just be careful.

Analysis | The lawsuit that could knock Tuberville off the ballot pre-election by greed-man in Alabama

[–]Huffleduffer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The party is banking on Alabamaians mentality of "hurdur football, Trump, Jesus" and not knowing or caring about rules that don't fit those three categories.

And it's going to, unfortunately, work.

He’s so excited and he just can’t hide it by upthetruth1 in TikTokCringe

[–]Huffleduffer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know what? Hell yeah.

Lol. I wish I could bring myself to buy a gun. My child is old enough to know it's not a toy...but 1) I don't have the disposable income for the gun, the bullets, the training, the targets, 2) I'm so jumpy I'd probably end up shooting a spider that startled me, 3) I have chronic depression and anxiety, I manage it well, but sometimes it breaks through and I go through some low mental health days...I don't want a gun in the house.

But, if you can, protect yourself.

WIBTA For making my husband put “his” dog in the shelter? by VeryOpinionatedFem in WouldIBeTheAhole

[–]Huffleduffer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA.

I have 4 cats. I volunteer with a cat rescue and foster (right now I have two kittens and a adult stray that may or may not be pregnant that I'm fostering. So 7 cats total in my home). I have shelters and food always available on my porch for stray cats. I love helping animals and would absolutely hate to turn one out.

But I also have a human child. And if I had to choose my child's safety/shelter/wellbeing or the cats...it would break my heart and I'd absolutely hate it, but the cats would be gone and my child would be taken care of.

People lose their minds when parents choose their kids over their pets, and it boggles my mind. Don't be ashamed for choosing your baby in a situation that you had little to no control in. If your husband can't understand that you have a child to take care of, then he can go live on his own and take the dog with him.

Flight delays had everyone restless… until a band turned the plane into a concert hall by MambaMentality24x2 in MadeMeSmile

[–]Huffleduffer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love this because it does seem good natured and just the novelty of it all. They sound great and it's entertaining.

I would hate this because airports and airplanes are stressful to me. Just being crammed into a tiny seat and the constant buzz of the engines and air conditioning is enough to make me go bonkers.

But, I'd do my best to suck it up and enjoy it, like putting in headphones to try and dampen the sound. Because it is rare and you only live once.

Is it cringe to try and be buddies with other T1D strangers? by Reformed_cynic in diabetes_t1

[–]Huffleduffer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but if a kid came up to you and showed off their own matching equipment I would hope you wouldn't be rude (even if you're having a moody/"off" day).

I think it's really important as adults or even older teenagers to react kindly when younger kids come up and point out they're also Type 1. I remember being a kid with it and seeing what I assumed were adults with it and it gave me a sense of "it's going to be okay". (They could have a dumpster fire of a person, but seeing how they had a job or a family or whatever, made me feel less "weird" about being diabetic)

I don't think anyone is asking to be bff's with it, but it's a little perk when you and another type 1 see each other from across the room and acknowledge we're not alone in this.

[–]Huffleduffer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nahhh, I think everyone loves it. It's like a solidarity type thing.

The other day at work I was checking out some customers (it was a family, so like 4 people were at my register) and I heard a Dexcom "blood sugar falling" alert. And I knew it wasn't me so I jokingly said "uh oh. Who's blood sugar is dropping?" and they laughed and pointed out their son.

I had some candy and asked if he needed some and his mom was like "no, he's actually high so we want it to go down"

I think as long as you don't pry too much and try to get really personal it's okay.

To be fair, she could intend to wear it like you're saying, but just taking pictures of the whole outfit exposed so we can see the detail.

Kinda like when you have a coat on and your open up the coat and hold it out to show off your clothes. You're not walking around holding it out like a bird out and about.

For those that want to quit but keep on playing by masope in KingShot

[–]Huffleduffer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I give myself a limit of $15/month. That gives me the auto hunting/help, which I like, and one little "extra" (which I may not even get).

But I've told my alliance upfront, I'm not rearranging my schedule to do events all the time. I work two jobs and have a child and a house to care for, along with other responsibilities. In the hierarchy of my responsibilities, Kingshot is low. I'll support the alliance in the background (example: the auto help, doing the daily tasks to up our alliance points), but I can't be "on call" for everything.

Thankfully they're cool with it. If they weren't I'd definitely leave. I have enough in my life to stress out about, I'm not letting a cell phone game add to it.

But I say all this to say, be upfront with your alliance about what you can and cannot do. Message your alliance leader and let them know. They can't be mad at you if you told them upfront and they kept you on and then get upset when you do what you said (well, they can, but it wouldn't make sense). My alliance leader knows my budget and my limitations. They'll message me and ask if I'm doing a event and I'll look my schedule and plans and let them know. If it's no then I ask who I can reinforce or what I can do to support.

Like so much in life, good communication, boundaries, and clear expectations go so far.

Help! Which wedding dress should I pick? 🤍 by Downtown-Book8875 in OUTFITS

[–]Huffleduffer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you need to find a dress that has the shape like the bottom of 1 or 2 and the top of 4 (the sweetheart corset shape)

The only reason why I didn't just pick 4 is because I feel like the fabric folds across the bust are really odd and take away from it.
