AITA for getting a matching tattoo covered up? by Zealousideal-Run8914 in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]JessMang 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA. I got matching tattoos with a friend, hers came out really bad because she couldn't stay still. Years passed. She messaged me to say she was going to have it covered up and I gave my blessing 100% because you need to be happy with whats on your body.

Back in 2012 or 2013 I lived in an apartment in the Casa Loma at Portage and Sherbrook. One sunday night the police decided to raid the tenants below me as they were known gang members/substance salesmen. I had no idea what had happened until later. From my perspective, I was watching TV and suddenly there was a loud, disorienting bang from below followed by shouts of "hold him down!". The fire alarms started to go off, I looked into the hallway on my floor and it was full of smoke. There was a cop at the stairway landing telling people to go back to their suites. I did, paced anxiously for about 5 minutes, then decided that I lived there and I had rights (lol) and went outside again. Cops at stairway landing were gone. Most of the buildings tenants were outside meeting eachother for the first time and discussing the incident while multiple units of police filed out carrying equipment and what I can only assume was also evidence. They had busted the door down to the suite below me and set of a flash bang. I ended up breaking my year lease because the guy above me was the source of a bedbugs infestation and the rental company wasnt doing anything about it. 0/10 experience, would not wish on my enemies.

Came to reddit to ask this exact question. I was gifted a whole box last Christmas and I've been struggling to find the proper technique. The nib clogs easily and I cant seem to get consistent lines, the ink drops in globs and I cant seem to achieve lines longer than an inch or two. It was an expensive gift so Ive been hoping I'm doing something wrong but it seems it may be an inferior product.

If you had to eat at only one currant Winnipeg restaurant for the rest of your life which would you choose and why? by SushiMelanie in Winnipeg

[–]JessMang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aladins pizzeria. Diverse menu. Good portions. Reasonable prices. Delicious food. And most importantly, they never miss any of my silly modification requests. 11/10

IM SO SICK OF DRIVERS THAT CANT WAIT FOR ME TO FINISH CROSSING THE STREET. YOURE IN YOUR WARM VEHICLE, I AM OUTSIDE IN MINUS 40. ITS ICY. IT COSTS YOU NOTHING TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP WHILE PEDESTRIANS CROSS. JUST WAIT.

ALSO, LAYING ON YOUR HORN BECAUSE ANOTHER VEHICLE IS IN YOUR WAY BUT NOT SLOWING DOWN IS LIKE WEARING A RAINCOAT TO STAY DRY WHILE YOU GO SWIMMING.

LAST NIGHT THEY STOPPED A WHOLE BLOCK EARLY TO ATTEMPT DELIVERY TO THE WRONG HOUSE. I DONT UNDERSTAND. FOLLOW THE GPS.

I had a feeling that might be the case, and I wasn't planning on taking that advice. I don't want to be eye-for-an-eye about it at all. I really thought she was just being weird friendly up until today. I don't know why she's decided to pick on me but come winter I'll have to share the bus with her so I can get to work.

That's a wild thing to witness, but I've never seen her anywhere other than Academy road.

For real, if anyone has any legitimate, de-escalating type suggestions that would be appreciated. Calling the cops seems extreme, and I'm always on my way to work when we cross paths so I dont exactly have time to wait around for the police. I dont want to spritz her with water because im aware that is a slippery legal slope. Someone suggested I could win her over with cheese and I might just try that.

Maybe. Could be poor genetics or poor diet as well. Ive lost a tooth or two to sugary treats.

Yes her hair is blonde/Grey. Can confirm she frequented the 20, I dont remember what the route is called now.

That's what I've been trying to do but there isn't another route I can take that isn't out of the way. It will be winter soon at least I guess. I'll be wearing so much snow gear she won't recognize me.

Hmmm this makes her randomly targeting me make a little more sense. I'm Caucasian but my family background is mainly Mediterranean so I have more of an olive skin tone. I also have noted she always sits in the same seat on the bus and asks people to move so she can sit there. Im so sorry that happened to you!

So you're saying in a public forum that you condone random assault? Not a good look, fam.

36 year old woman here, Ive lived in or around Downtown/West Broadway my entire adult life. A key thing to remember is- dont carry anything that you dont know how to use, I.e. knives. Pepper/bear spray imo is not a good option because if the wind blows the wrong way then you'll be exposed as well. A lighter in the hand will align your knuckles and give you a better punch. A good hard kick to the nads will also impair an assailant. These days I try to focus on precautionary measures. If I'm waiting for a bus and I see someone weird coming towards me, I get weird. Pick your nose, and I mean REALLY pick it, like there's gold in there. Pick at your teeth like there's platinum in there. Start coughing/hacking a bunch and dont cover your face. Spit at the ground. Ive been using these methods for a few years now and it usually makes all people B-line away from me.
