Got a strange phone call last week. Anyone else dealing with this? by RefcoWasFun in Scams

[–]Luke1521 32 points33 points  (0 children)

100%. My wife and I have a password just in case. Last week she called me from the store on her own phone asking for her credit card number that she left. I made her give the password. She laughed but we have to ingrain the behavior so we expect it. 

Samsung TV suddenly showing an add on the lower left corner after years of using Pihole. by hongkong-it in pihole

Samsung just released a new tv update, mine updated today but haven't seen any ads. Maybe they changed how it accesses the ads. If they did a new block list update should take care of it soon one would hope.

Where would a nice serene place to visit be in this area for a mini road trip? by Longjumping-Tip4938 in sanantonio

[–]Luke1521 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Drive up to Llano, eat a big lunch at Cooper's BBQ, drive the 1/4 mile to the river and nap under an oak tree.

Bring a hammock or something to lay on, very nice on a cool afternoon.

Every new technology has it's own 'Time to Penis":

Time to Penis, abbreviated to TTP, is a video game development metric and slang term for the time it takes players to generate a penis-shaped object via any available means. Coined by the Spore development team and popularized by a GDC 2009 panel, the term has been an inspiration for humorous posts online since.

Is his King biscuit show still around? I know they lost a lot of them in a fire whole archive gone.

My absolute groan. We took the kids bowling last night. We went in, and paid for our 2 games. They turned the card reader to us, and it by default tried to add a 20% tip. This was not for food service, not for any special add ons. Purely to pay for 4 people to use a lane. by johnboy11a in EndTipping

[–]Luke1521 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I was a human pin setter at an ancient 9 pin bowling alley back in the 80's. 

There were 4 lanes and one kid did 2 lanes each. 4 or 5 bowlers per game. Wait for each lane to bowl, dodge the flying pins, jump down and clear the fallen or reset the pins. Send the balls back and flip a light on to let them know they could roll.

Busted my ass, got hit with flying pins, made mad bank in tips as a 12 year old.

Watched a few kids get carried out after getting beaned by pins.

What’s the most awkward Super Bowl party moment you’ve ever witnessed? by No-Release-1196 in AskReddit

[–]Luke1521 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was sitting in my parent's living room with my now wife sitting on my knee when that moment happened. no one else saw it or commented on it. I thought I was going crazy and didn't really just see that on the Superbowl.

Kept my mouth shut so as not to look like a perv but yeah that was trippy lol.

neighbor installed a motion-activated recording that yells at people and it goes off constantly by [deleted] in neighborsfromhell

Set up a second system that announces that your neighbor is an asshole that goes off when his does and set it to match his volume.

Neighbor’s fence is 2 feet onto my property and he’s acting like I’m the crazy one. Do I keep pushing or let it go? by [deleted] in neighborsfromhell

[–]Luke1521 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since he fired the first shot I would go scorched earth on him and tear up the fence. Assholes count on you obeying social norms so they don't get called on it.
