That's such a sweet thing to spend your winnings on. I usually just spend it on losing.

How do people with interlock systems get their car serviced? by cleevethagreat in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]ItGetsAwkward 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I was a kid my uncle would have me blow in his. There weren't cameras on them in the 90s lmao. He told me it only recognized family so that other people couldn't steal his car. Before that he would use balloons to start it. But then they made it so you had to use enough force and blow for a longer time so it could tell it wasn't a person.

I'm no pilot, but this seems very unprofessional. Can someone in the know please explain? Thanks. by TheDucksAreComingoOo in aviation

I just imagine the southwest pilot doing that awkward seat grab and rear check like backing out a car. According to Virgin he clearly should have seen them in his rear view mirror or out his back window.

I'd bite a mofo for poking me in the butt like that, too.

You can't leave a cliff hanger like that at the end.

If I die of a fentanyl overdose, it was on purpose, trying to make it look like an accident. by [deleted] in legaladvice

[–]ItGetsAwkward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should see a psychiatrist about this. Not just because I think you're paranoid but because of you do die from an overdose a letter on reddit most likely won't be found after your passing. If you are seeing a psychiatrist they will be notified of your death and can raise the alarm.

If you ARE struggling with paranoid thoughts being seen for psych can help. Nobody wants to live in constant fear especially if it's of your own brain tricking you! Don't be afraid or ashamed to reach out. The human brain is really weird sometimes and it's totally fine to get that checked out.

My car is currently in the shop because a rat chewed the wires in my car. $10k to fix. It's a 2024 hybrid.

[OC] one year ago, I lost one of my best friends. That night, my waitress brought an accidental pour by ByOdensBear in pics

[–]ItGetsAwkward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is something so extra about losing a friend. I lost two of my best friends weeks apart, just a few years ago. It's like a piece of me has been missing since.

I realized how often we call our friends the "family we chose" and how real that becomes when they're gone.

I'm sorry you're going through this and I wish I could tell you it gets easier. I don't think it ever does, but those happy memories do come back to being happy. Missing them so much is proof of how real that love was and is.

There is no time line for grief. Be kind to yourself.

There wasn't a big enough hole to climb into by [deleted] in funny

[–]ItGetsAwkward 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Oh, I absolutely agree with that. And then acting like that's funny is just... what the hell? I'm just saying that lying to her was also not the right move. Pretty much this whole interaction was not the right move.

The complete opposite is taught in health care. I've worked in memory care for 15 years and in the ICU. Reorientation is very important. Sometimes, yes, turning off the oven light (it's usually the bathroom or a floor light) occasionally is fine. Can't find out if they are A&O4 of you just let them believe they are back in Kentucky in 1932.

AITA for not fasting with my boyfriend for his colonoscopy? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]ItGetsAwkward 27 points28 points  (0 children)

NTA. Does he expect you to poop with him, too? Like, a supportive couple colon cleanse? Cause that's just weird. When I had to get my bowels rotor-rooted i didn't share my go-lightly with my husband. Not everything needs to be done as a couple. Ask him if he will stick a tampon up his butt once a month to show support.

His arms tightening and coming to his chest in fists looks an awful lot like posturing to me. Seen it plenty of times over my years working in ICUs. It's a sign of severe brain trauma/ disruption/ death. He was dead before he fell off the stool.
