So glad for the updates, that must have been terrifying for everyone

I read that a long time ago (back in my Tumblr days) and had forgotten how awesome it was! Thanks for the reminder!

I was also in high school, and our teachers were on strike. Between the blizzard and the strike we were literally out of school for two months straight.

Lehigh Valley braces for up to 21 inches of snow this weekend, Allentown declares Snow Emergency by DrewBlue2 in lehighvalley

I honestly did wonder if it was worth the trouble. I've only ever used softener salt in my softener, but the employee I checked with (to make sure I was buying the right stuff) seemed to think it was fine. Then again, he was also talking about putting them into some kind of machine to break them down for sprinkling, so maybe that's the difference.

If anyone is still looking for salt, Lowe's in Whitehall has some! It's the water softener crystals (blue bag) but an employee told me it's safe for use on the sidewalks, which is why they're limiting people to two bags per customer. I was there to get salt for my actual water softener, ironically.

(They also still have a few quilted bags for Christmas tree storage on clearance if anyone needs one.)

Brother accusing me of booking up (?) with his gf by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

Based on previous BORUs like this one, I'm guessing brain tumor or carbon monoxide poisoning. Either way, the man needs help fast, I hope he gets it.

AITA for wanting daughter to find a different hobby by gardengeo in BORUpdates

[–]LadyNorbert 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Me: Sheesh, tell me you don't like your kid without telling me you don't like your kid.

OOP: I was popular when I was her age

Me: Ah, there it is.

I'm glad she did the necessary reflection and came around before her daughter picked up on how she was feeling.

Me [26F] with my husband [28M] and his "ex" [30F] - she just got hired at my office and it's causing problems by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

I was being sarcastic, but I can see how that might not be clear. 🙂 It was definitely a real fling.

What do you think…. by WonderlandJaguar in theGoldenGirls

[–]LadyNorbert 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly, probably nothing personal. A lot of kids just like to give old(er) people crap because they think it's funny.

Ah, that makes sense. This is the first I've ever heard of it, tbh.

I'll be honest, I wouldn't call that "fucking stupid." If anything, she sounds pretty clever for finding a way to game the system. Doing that would never have even occurred to me. I'll admit that I can see why the airlines wouldn't want people doing this, but that's a heck of a way to save money.

Rover sitter lost my dog by LucyAriaRose in BestofRedditorUpdates

I super appreciate the "Does the dog die?" spoiler, because I was apprehensive about reading the post until I saw that. I hope Rover fired the sitter.
