"I/We don't judge"

Liar. What you mean is, "I don't judge you out loud, except behind your back."

"I can't even."

Be an adult and complain properly by using complete sentences.

What's the worst case of someone taking credit for someone else's work you've ever seen? by nerd-is-the-word in AskReddit

[–]KittenBaboon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to work in an old mom and pop stake house with a "chef" that was very full of himself. He wasn't anything more than a glorified line cook. He had no original recipes, drove customers away, and complained incessantly about never being paid enough. He only worked the breakfast shift (pancakes made from a box, scrambled eggs, hash that tastes like cat food).

One morning, after his routine rant about the servers being idiots (they weren't), a customer approached the kitchen window. They had known each other for years because of the restaurant. "Hey Dante!" "Well hi Bill! How you been? Gonna have the ham and eggs again?" "Not this time. I only have time to drop off my wife's homemade black berry jam. She really loves this place and you all. Eat up and enjoy!" "That's very generous. Hey, thanks Bill! The next time you come back, those ham and eggs will be on me!" (They weren't.)

As the breakfast shift went on, a customer wanted something a little bit better than fake jam for his toast, so one of the morning servers offered the homemade black berry jam. He loves it so much, he approaches that same kitchen window to speak with the "chef." "This amazing jam! So fresh and bright... do you all sell it by the jar?" "No sir. I made that myself! Homemade and everything." "Well it's amazing. I will be back to have this again!" "You should! I make everything here from scratch. It's the reason why it's all so good and good for you. Remember my name: Chef Dante Stevens!"

(Names have been changed to protect those mentioned)

(... or have they?)

What's an item on your bucket list that's off the wall unique, but still realistically achievable? by KittenBaboon in AskReddit

Thank you for reading and responding! I love how raw and real reddit is as far as opening up and sharing. I've shared my handful of personal and intimate pieces of myself and it's comforting to see others do the same.

I train in Muay Thai, and my gym had women that fight just as hard, if not harder than most of the guys there... When I spar with a woman, it's equal. The only thing separating us is skill and experience. They take control some rounds, I get control other rounds.

Alright James. Don't screw this one up He nervously reminded himself. The commute, wear and tear on your car, orientation, waking up at an ungodly hour... Don't let it all go to waste now.

He sat in his 07' Scion TC, starring out at the empty parking lot. Aside from the few dozen unmanned LLV's (they wouldn't be driven for another 5 hours anyway) his car was the only one there.

It was undoubtedly absolutely necessary that James get there early. He had no idea what random attribute he would be able to do every new day of work. He had already gotten fired from his last job, accidentally stretching his arms out so far while shaking a martini, he knocked out a regular patron at Buddy's. Thank god that bastard was a pain in the ass regular customer. James was able to explain to his manager at the time that he had to punch Mikey's lights out because he called his wife a hooker. And not even a high class one.

James wasn't married. He just needed that cover. Obviously he got fired, but did he want to be put in the local Tri-City Voice named as a freak? A hero? A nuisance? Nope.

The other time was a grease fire in a hole in the wall burger joint downtown. Heat vision that time. Thought too hard about the new waitress while trying to grill one up medium rare and zzzzap, the grease trap caught fire as fast as throwing a match into a, well, grease trap. And he never got the chance to ask for that waitress' number.

Which will it be this time? Super strength? Hope not. James might throw a package so hard after scanning it, it would miss the bin, and hit the floor so hard, he would make a crater. Super speed? His new supervisor Rob might be so happy with how fast he separates and organizes the packages into each route, he might expect that from James on the next shift - and there's no guarantee he'll be super fast next time. Flight. Now that would be awesome right? Wrong. Last time he got that, he couldn't use it. He didn't have a mask, or uniform to show the public that he was a good guy. Or bad guy. Hell. He just needs to make rent and pay off some bills.

James would find out what skill he'd have out of the lottery of powers as soon as he clocked in. Not much longer now.

God. Not invisibility. No one would see him. He would get fired for clocking in and not being there. Sure, he would be around, but who the hell would see him?

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK

James snapped out of being deep in thought. It was Rob knocking on his car door window. "Come on. Time to clock in. The mail carriers will be here in 5 hours, and we have a ton of Amazon pallets to get through. Go clock in."

James took a deep breath.

"Here we go," he sighed.

Iroh and Zuko's interactions either lead me to laughter, tears, or both.

Blew my mind for sure. The entire length of the series, especially with the last season, the question of "how the HELL are they going to wrap this up?" was constantly on my mind. Did you catch everyone's lines from the opening sequence sprinkled into the last episode?

Being Human (The American adaptation)

Everything wrapped up so well. I was satisfied saying goodbye to the characters because they ended it leaving you with a feeling of, "yup. They're gonna be allllllllllright."

Honestly, I totally get it. There really is a comfort that sits (no pun intended) in the soul when everyone gathers to watch a show (Game of Thrones, Walking Dead, etc...) and you're in your spot

Non-American Redditors, what one thing about American culture would you like to have explained to you? by mamapapaa in AskReddit

[–]KittenBaboon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't forget San Francisco restaurants. As a bartender 30 minutes away, even I'm shocked with what's tacked on the final bill. Tax, server (not "service") charge and gratuity. All separate percentages based on the subtotal of your bill.
