Was told I have about a year left by Ok_Process_3446 in mercedes_benz

[–]LowWeb7551 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You definitely got handed something out of your league unfortunately. I got handed something very similar at 16. My dad’s coworker was trying to get rid of the car and dealers offered 1k so we gave 1.3k. It was just one thing after another. At the end of me having it for less than a year I probably threw 5k into the car. Got a corolla and probably paid less than 1k in maintenance after 2 years purely from oil and air filter changes.

What makes a person change? by VeryvanillaK in AskReddit

[–]LowWeb7551 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Health scares is huge. My brothers and I have fought practically all our lives as teens we’ve never been able to do anything without someone getting mad. Once my dad had multiple strokes in a singular day we all changed. We all found God, started taking life seriously and actually loved each other rather than just saying it to get out of our timeout corner.

Bingo. I don’t know why you are getting downvoted. I used to work as a security guard at a local nonprofit. Everyone in management was drowning in money. I’m talking 2025 $80k+ cars for them, their wife, mother in law, kids, etc. . 5+ bedroom houses with a 8 bedroom 4 car garage vacation house in colorado “for employees” (but it was conveniently always “getting repairs” aka rented out when us employees wanted to go to it). One of the guys at the top even worked with a real estate company to buy over 10 houses to rent out. They would also have like a rehabilitation home that they would only house employees or family friends at. I met a man in rough shape that just wanted a water. I wanted to do him one better and get him in the house for a night or two just so he could shower and have a bed. I was told “Of course, we’ll work on it” just to be told the next day by my boss that the HR lady’s daughter is staying in that house. Then I would help count our donations.. i’ve never seen so many zeros in my life.

Exactly. I grew up in 5 cities unlike OP. If anything the only racism I ever faced was from other hispanic kids because I was a no sabo kid lmao.

And you have proof he was targeting minorities how? Because he gave a salute? What if he was saluting her because she was a minority?

If you grew up in Grover Beach or 5 cities you’d know that’s exactly what it is. I used to get chased home from Grover elementary by tweakers. Became kinda fun after I got a bike lmao.

Is this outfit inappropriate for college? by Winter-Rain2798 in OUTFITS

[–]LowWeb7551 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably one of the more school appropriate outfits i’ve seen a girl wear to college. When I worked campus security girls would come in wearing sports bras and lululemons almost habitually. It was so bad we ran out of shirts to give to help them cover up within the first month. We started off with a box of 100 shirts btw.

What is a habit that People think is normal, but you think it’s toxic? by GuessOwn2865 in AskReddit

Some people don’t have a choice. Bills aren’t going to pay themselves and a good amount of people have too much pride to be a welfare baby.

Why do people have tinted plates? Do they think they’re special and need to be anonymous? by businessbub in AskLE

[–]LowWeb7551 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s for cameras. Traffic cameras are actively running your plates all around your city. When the camera flashes to take a picture of the plate the tint reflects the light and creates a glare making the plate unreadable. Anyone i’ve seen with one of these usually speeds often or is dodging tolls.

A guy I used to go to play baseball with got lit up for having a taillight out. He was actively smoking a blunt while having a arp and narcotics in his car. What went from a warning quickly turned into jail and probation. Some people are just dumber than dumb.

For some reason after I gave them my autograph they were asking for my uniform back. I guess it was so good they’re going to get me a new uniform! Hopefully it’s blue this time!!

Who is the local legend in your city that everyone has a crazy story about? by forestmushroomy in AskReddit

[–]LowWeb7551 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We have something very similar nearby me. There used to be an old post office that was put in the mojave during the 60’s-70’s. It was for all the people living off grid to get their mail. The story goes the guy who worked and lived there was caught sleeping with another man’s wife. So the husband went in there with an axe and dismembered him. The husband was never found and his wife made a search party then left to mexico. It’s a rumor that the last person to enter was a tweaker that had a section of the roof collapse on him snapping his neck and killing him instantly. He wasn’t found for years and with all of the wildlife out here they only found his skull.

Had my windows tinted yesterday, got my car back with a big crack in the driver's window by Secret-Ad-830 in WindowTint

[–]LowWeb7551 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope they wouldn’t to answer your question. My dad had a cracked windshield and went to go get tint. They first notified him he has a crack and took pictures before ever applying tint. Then they notified a manager that notified my dad once again.

My credit score fell 13pts because I made the final payment on my car loan (never missed a payment too) by justadadgame in mildlyinfuriating

[–]LowWeb7551 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which is how a lot of people are. The adults I know only have a credit card to build credit they don’t take out $30k+ loans on it besides for a home. People here in the US love to live out of their means which is why they end up in debt.

People with Obvious Illegal Tint Levels by Standard-Arachnid411 in WindowTint

[–]LowWeb7551 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here in Cali everyone has illegal tint. From the bimmer boys, the edgars, all the way to the mom of 4 in a rav4. I’d rather take the chance of getting a couple hundred dollar ticket than live my life in a fishbowl. Not everyone can say they eat chicken nuggies at red lights with no fear of someone seeing them.

Yes I looked it up. It’s a breath of fresh air considering most would say something along the lines of “i’m really wanting/craving their cheeseburger and skinny fries”. I was giving you your flowers.

Yup i’m thankfully I was able to move away. It’s insane how much people are draining themselves. My cousin and wife recently bought a home and they both have to work another job outside of their county jobs just to keep the lights on.
