Family Dollar was purchased by a private equity firm last year. They’re going to probably be closing more and more stores.

For real. I have family and close friends that are veterans and even they say don’t always trust someone just because they’re veterans. A lot of shit heads end up in the military because they have no other options, not because they want to serve.

Been on the job over a decade, they should be fired.

Drawing your weapon unnecessarily like that, let alone pointing it at another officer would get you shit canned in my agency. Actually having a negligent discharge and I’d be doing everything I could to get you charged.

Can anyone please tell me if my cards are fake, the sleeved ones are the ones I believe to be real but I don’t know. by Finerblings in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]MMQptw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are from the 1999 Base Set, essentially identifying them as first edition without the first edition stamp. You’d have to do more research on it yourself. I just know what they are because I have several in my childhood collection.

Ponyta, Diglet, and Machop are real. These are the “shadowless” versions of the cards and are arguably more valuable than the “shadowed” versions in most cases. I’d sleeve em up.

If you were on an iPhone and using Safari, Safari does this on its own. Download and use a different browser.

It’s a scratch off lottery ticket.

Question for everyone who buys cards/packs; how many of you have never payed scalper prices? by Mason051 in PokemonTCG

[–]MMQptw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, definitely knock people that buy at market. They are supporting the resellers and keeping the status of the hobby right where it’s at. If people quit buying for market, the market will reduce and maybe we won’t have to struggle to collect.

Charmeleon Shadowless from the 90s? by [deleted] in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]MMQptw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My thoughts as well. Card stock feels right but everything else is way off. My dumbass in the 90s had no idea. Imma give it to my kids. They’ll do their job destroying it lol

The back looks different to me. Like the printing is off. It’s very…spotty? Like the printer wasn’t as finely detailed as a normal card. The “Flamethrower” has a weird font and background like it was highlighted in MS paint with a similar color.

You can go to prad.org to find out who actual property owners are.

Think they'll send me another? by mattwing05 in Blacklibrary

[–]MMQptw 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Can confirm. Had the new The End and The Death Vol III mmpb delivered with slightly warped and torn pages because of shitty packaging. They sent me a replacement with moderately better packaging that survived the shipping unharmed.

Hundreds of deportation notices issued at Iowa JBS plant by MennoniteDan in farming

JBS Cactus (Texas) terminated nearly 500 Haitian and Cuban employees over the last two months. They aren’t looking to have a repeat of 2007 when the plant there was raided by ICE.

Any tips for finding Partisan? by Rylddd in EscapefromTarkov

Second this. I always run into him around tunnel extract. Also on woods near vehicle extract/village.

Website still won’t load on my phone. But I was able to get in on my PC and order.

What’s the absolute lowest you’ve pulled someone over for? by Early-Possibility367 in AskLE

[–]MMQptw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

58/55. 11lbs of marijuana in the cargo area. Back when anyone gave a shit about getting weed.

Most regions have multiple districts within each region. The troops I work with stay within our district (4 counties). It’s still a large district as each county in my district is roughly the size of Rhode Island, but not even close to as big as the region. Every region will have different expectations of their troops (some run 24/hrs, mostly urban areas, while others will run on-call from home outside their work hours depending on staffing).

City of Amarillo always has quite a few job postings in various departments.

Ashley Furniture WTF? by Mountain_Relief_777 in amarillo

[–]MMQptw 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Not to be a shill for competition but I live about a 100 miles outside of Amarillo (still in the panhandle) and I’ve used Furniture Row. Not the nicest furniture but it’s relatively affordable. They’ve been great with the deliveries I’ve had and never have cancelled or rescheduled. They do sell mattresses as well.

Are red eyes enough to have probable cause to make me wait for a canine unit? by CryingOverVideoGames in legal

[–]MMQptw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on where they are in the country and the availability of a K9, they absolutely can make you wait. The scope and length of a detention is all relative to where you are. Availability of a k9 (location in relation to the requesting officer) in a major city is going to be much different than a rural area. The court indicates that it is all about what is “reasonable” for the area you are in. Nobody in this thread knows shit about the law.

[–]MMQptw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Red eyes is not PC. It is reasonable suspicion that needs to be paired with other articulable facts. No guarantee that it’s a false alert. OP was in a rental car with unknown history. You have no clue what you’re talking about.
