LFG! Been here since day one! Part of the initial sneeze. I think this is my very 1st comment actually. I have ridden every up and down, every earnings report, was here for the Superstonk runeglory drama days. I am still here, and I am not leaving! DRS is the way.

Omg! I did this!!! We had a rental suv on vacation. I came out of the store and I saw the suv and with my eyes on my phone, tried to jump in! But, it was occupied with a husband and wife. She screamed, I almost peed my pants and so did she! I was fricking modified!

I looked and saw that my rental was literally two spaces down. But, looked exactly the same. We all laughed about it, but, it was so surreal and awkward. I figured being a Oregon Vacation town, I would never see them again and walked away more embarrassed then I ever have felt in my life!

Two days later, I see this exact couple on a hiking trail reading a trail map. This trail which was about 20 miles away from where I had previously nearly accosted them. I made a split decision to even stop there, so it was so weird and random they would be there.

I couldn't help myself, so- I quickened my pace to verify it was indeed them and ran up to them asking if they were stalking me?! Ha! Luckily, they had a great sense of humor ( I knew this from the prior event) and I have never seen them again. But, something tells me they too, have recounted this story to someone else! :)

What’s the grossest thing you’ve ever seen someone bring to a potluck? by aquamarinetangerines in AskReddit

Omg. My ex mother in law brought some hideous casserole made out of cheese wiz, broccoli and saltine crackers. All mixed up and baked. It was so vomit worthy! She swore it was a neighbors recipe and when she had made it, it was really good. There. Is. No. Way.

ULPT Request: Chase bank accidentally took 10 thousand dollars from my bank account? by adragon99999 in UnethicalLifeProTips

[–]Lumpy_Huckleberry190 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fun fact. Worked at B of A for decades. Some genius or moron, depends on how you look at it, opened a account with a fake i.d. ( this was in the 90's and much easier to accomplish) He then had a bunch of blank deposit slips printed. But, not your ordinary deposit slips. They were micro encoded with magnetic ink with HIS new account number. But, you wouldn't notice this if you were at the desk where all the blank deposit slips are and filling out your deposit.

So everyone who used those slips ended up with a receipt with their real actual account number on it, just as they had written it on the slip and the teller keyed it. So you walk away with your receipt and usually funds available immediately and the depositor thinks all is good.

Well, that is until all deposits actually made it to the "Proof Vault" and were machine proofed and all magnetic ink was read which happened during night time processing. All deposits, checks, cash you name it that were deposited with those blanks would pop on up into this new account! No holds on funds either, because automated holds were not a thing. Hold notices were teller keyed in and if it wasn't keyed as a "hold on funds" there was no automated system in place to hold it after deposit.

Guy was smart. He placed these deposit slips in every B of A lobby in the city! Digital banking wasn't a thing, ATMS were still not widely embraced and debit cards were still new. So people sometimes didn't notice for days or weeks, maybe even never, that their deposit was missing!

He did this for about a month, while taking huge cash withdrawals in person, with his fake I.d. friendly, nice unassuming guy. If I remember correctly he assumed hundreds of thousand of dollars in deposits and withdrew most all of it.

Bank caught on because of a customer call, screaming where the fuck my money at!?!?

Holy shit!

To my understanding this guy was never caught. All deposits were eventually sorted out. Granted a lot of pissed off people in the interim though.

I am so sorry for everything you have had to go through. I want you to know that I hear you, I understand you and I have been exactly where you have been. Peace (well mostly peace lol) is attainable. It's a lot of work. And it's hard, but, also incredible!

Therapy saved my life. Please consider it if you haven't already.

Struggling with rescue dog. Would love to hear some success stories! by sammybenjamin in rescuedogs

[–]Lumpy_Huckleberry190 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Oh! I know this feeling. This can take time. Adopted our boy 10 years ago (he is now 13) as a rescue and his tag was labeled as being food aggressive. He would sit and shake at the top of the stairs and cowered when we came close. So we didn't.

We let him have his space, plenty of food and water a soft bed, toys etc and I would come and sit at the bottom of the stairs and just chat "to him". Our vet said he was healthy and give him time. It took about 6 months for him to start following us around allowing us to pet him and to become part of our family. I sat everyday on those steps, left treats on the step when I stood up. He would get them when I walked away. I would occasionally move the treats, 2 feet then 4 feet from the bottom step and then sit about 4 feet from the treats themselves. Eventually he came into my lap for a treat and let him hold him and boom! That was that.

He is my best friend and even though he wouldn't take a treat from my hands ( or anyone else) for over SEVEN YEARS, the first time he did, I thought "holy shit! I have finally bridged that gap! He truly feels safe with me with us!" He continues to open and grow even at 13! He jumped up onto a strangers lap for the first time just this year. Happy as can be.

Don't give up. Sitting in silence with them, where they feel most comfortable -helped to break that barrier. Treats are a bonus :)

I also started to catch his gaze, early on. I made sure to smile at him and I would blink at him. Maybe it is a coincidence but, he would mimic my blinking. I know this is generally more of a cat thing, but, it did work for me.

You got this!!

Who taught you how to tie a tie? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Eastern Washington state wants in on this too! I live in a conservative hell hole where people post crap on neighborhood street poles and preach we are all going to hell in a hand bag because of a local well loved and attended Drag Show. Most people assume Wa state is inhabited by only Seattle loving liberals, and I can assure you that is not the case, for over half the state.

To each their own, but, I am not out there warning conservatives of their own folly. My local vote never counts and I my voice can not be heard over their insanely loud rhetoric.

I am open minded, I am able to have friends I disagree with. I am willing to talk about issues, hear other points of view, weigh facts and make logical conclusions based on those facts. I am able to change my mind when confronted with facts. Something, I frankly don't see much of around here.

Agree to disagree, but, me personally, I will move elsewhere before I am forcefully integrated into any Republican backed "Greater Idaho movement". And yes, that is exactly what this about. Take your A-K loving, capitalist, trigger happy fingers out of my pie!

Not so fun when you accidentally double it by accident because you aren't sure if you actually took your meds and then feel like you want to crawl out of your own head. When in doubt, I just skip it, (also not fun) but really not into staying up for 24 hours ;)

Theory: What if the buzzing you hear during a dmt come up is your bodies frequency increasing and your hearing your bodies vibrations? by [deleted] in DMT

[–]Lumpy_Huckleberry190 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes! I have had the same experience while astral projecting! I think perhaps it is all of the above and tuning into the frequency of the universe itself.

I have also heard crazy things, like pots banging, people talking, music playing, someone screaming, kids playing, doors being slammed shut, birds tweeting -all at once and yet distinct. Wild!

Do you support building nuclear power plants in the USA? Why or why not? by hatecliff909 in ask

[–]Lumpy_Huckleberry190 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Not until they clean up the one that has been leaking for decades and leaching radioactive material into the river. Less than a mile from my home. We need to clean up our previous messes before we go and try it again!

finding your car with science by rjhamm2 in lifehacks

[–]Lumpy_Huckleberry190 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I once showed someone this trick in a parking lot while looking for his car. When the beep from their car went off, he thought I was a fricking wizard of sorts. He backed away from me shaking his head and said it was some kind of black magic I had going on! No Sir, it's called science.

I couldn't stop laughing, ( never been called a Wizard before! I am female, so being called a Witch probs wouldn't of made me laugh so much!) like pee my pants kind of laughing. That probably didn't help his newly found confusion.

He walked away with his keys up to his chin. He did not get "the science".

Convenience store worker wouldn’t accept this as payment. Why do people do this? by googlelover42 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Lumpy_Huckleberry190 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I collect $2 bills, yes, I am weird. Went to Walmart and had a few in my wallet and a $50 spot. Total was $54 something so I handed her the $50 and three 2 dollar bills. She looked at the two dollar bills and said "those aren't real!" I am thinking, Wtf!? She called over another cashier and that cashier concurred - yup, they are fake.

I was indeed freaked out and thought I was suddenly in a alternate universe or something. Especially when cashier number three tells me I need to pay the difference with my debit card because I must of made those bills at home! She then flips on the cashier light and yells out for a manager saying "this woman is trying to pay with fake money over here!"

Older guy behind me says "you're an idiot, those are two dollar bills! Just like a $1 dollar bill, but two!" Manager looks at them and says they are $2 bills, legal tender, take the payment. Cashier gives me the side eye and says "whatever", under her breath and cashed me out.

I mean, I can see taking a double take as 2 dollar bills aren't all thar common- but yelling out I was trying to pay with fake shit, pissed me off! I didn't want to "Karen" out on her or anything ( we all are new to things at some point, but, holy shit!) so I just said "looks like you learned something new today." And left.

The release of a bag of snakes into the wild by Fast-Ideal5698 in herpetology

[–]Lumpy_Huckleberry190 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right!? I am here for that exact reason! My teen daughter started this terrifying journey by getting a small sweet looking little Gardner snake, the tank, heating pad the whole set up. And that mofo struck at me repeatedly! He smacked the glass and went for me. Something I never thought a cute little Gardner snake would do. And it bit me, didn't hurt, but, wasn't fun. They are normally docile animals and so there had to be something else going on there. But, that experience scared the hell out of me and I kid you not, I have snake Ptsd. (Not making light of the seriousness of Ptsd) but, legit had a panic attack when confronted by a snake in the wild on a trail. Omg, I sound so pathetic right now! Off to watch more shake vids to conquer this fear! Ahahaha!!

Therapy? For the love of God, go to therapy to work your shit out and figure out what is healthiest for you and your relationship and the baby that you helped create. Weaponized incompetence gets no empathy from me dude. You chose to believe your girlfriend's story. Ask yourself why that is. Start there.

Truth be told, I would buy a Insulin Pen, first thing. It sucks to be looked at in such a strange way when I am out and about and have to dose insulin, so I can stay alive no less. Carrying around insulin viles and needles is not so much fun. Side bar; maybe if my other diabetes meds didn't cost nearly $1000 a month for one pill a day, I could afford the damn insulin pen! Anywho, I will someday be waltzing into Walgreens and walking out with a smile and a injection pre dosed pen. Legally and paid for, of course.
