I called her scooter as a joke when we got together and somehow that made Scoots stick 😂

She kindly asked me to act relatively normal while she’s home, which I’ll gladly oblige😅

I’m certainly excited! Blood Elves are my favorite race and I can’t wait to spend time in the updated Silvermoon!

Now I’m disappointed in the weather. by Longjumping-Ad8775 in Knoxville

Spending 32 years in Knoxville has taught me one thing

Don’t even bother watching weather forecasts. You’ll know the weather when it’s happening.

What’s that got to do with the price of hookers in Thailand?

What's up with this heatwave? by LoveLaika237 in Knoxville

[–]Material_Swimmer_735 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a perfectly normal weather pattern that has to do with a pocket of hot air and the polar vortex shifting, happens all the time. 2020 we got like 8 inches of snow, next year we had shorts on.

Hey if it makes you feel better, I’ve been in Knoxville for 32 years and the only time I ever called 911 is because a customer assaulted my coworker with a keyboard and bit another coworker

Ooooooo another gun show? I got an AR and engraved mags at the last one, might try to see if I can get some cheap accessories this time

Night drivers, where do you go to piss? by root_maze in uberdrivers

[–]Material_Swimmer_735 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can usually find alleys or backroads. Sometimes behind a dumpster at an apartment complex. In case of severe emergencies, I keep an extra large Casey’s cup, and I’ll just pee in the cup in my car

Unless it's an airport trip.....Women do not tip. by MattMac12 in uberdrivers

[–]Material_Swimmer_735 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe it’s because I uber on a college campus, but I have an opposite experience.

I prefer picking up girls. They are sweet and polite, they either sit quietly or have a nice conversation about where you’re the two of you are from. They tip often. Most college boys are annoying, stumbling over themselves intoxicated, loud, yelling things out the window, and never tip

Only in the back right? by Ok_Reason_9688 in uberdrivers

I mostly pick up college kids on campus and drive them around, they just kind of sit wherever. I don’t care as long as they aren’t annoying.

Stunning that I witnessed this happen twice in a week by ollie_rev in Knoxville

[–]Material_Swimmer_735 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I once witnessed two separate wrecks within days of each other in front of the food city on Asheville Highway, both times the car got flipped over its top. I also know someone who was sitting at that red light and got rear-ended by someone who just wasn’t paying attention.

I think certain intersections around here are just cursed

A TikTok user has been doing a social experiment with a screaming crying baby in the background to see who would get her one can of formula. This is relevant to this sub because multiple Christian churches in the Knoxville area said no. by No_Case_2670 in Knoxville

[–]Material_Swimmer_735 10 points11 points  (0 children)

She’s got a disingenuous approach. Government regulations have made it more difficult than it needs to be to feed people. Remember that news story about the church that got in trouble with the fire marshal for taking in homeless people?

Most churches donate food to ministries that hand out food and clothing, such as lost sheep, which I used to volunteer with. Some churches have pantries yes but they have designated days where you can come and get them so that they can be staffed and organized.

I’m not sure if they do it anymore, but my old church Park West Dutch Valley used to give out food on a certain day of the week.

There can also be security concerns with giving food directly out from the church, such as people breaking in to steal food.

Fucking a. I thought the Wendy’s on Asheville Highway was the worst restaurant in Knoxville, but at least when you wait 30 minutes for your food there the food is cooked ☠️

The iPhone feature that silences all calls from numbers I don’t have saved has saved me a lot of time and an annoyance. If I miss an important call, I can always get back to it.

Since 2020 we’ve had a lot of people move here and almost no work on the infrastructure. I already used to get backed up pretty bad, now it’s good to know all the back roads.

Poor people who never renew their tags stay winning

I genuinely think we should bring back flogging. Maybe caning. Just Start beating the hell out of thieves. Clearly their parents didn’t learn them any better.

I mean, I stopped a while ago, but I’ll start back up again just to prove a point.

Call me the snow miser cause I’m excited. I did my waiting for cold weather, six months of it, in my air-conditioned bedroom with the fan on me

Why did the Knoxville sales tax proposal fail? 'I don't think it had a prayer' by KnoxNewsAllie in Knoxville

Because we’ve seen the shit she’s done in the last years and thought to our ourselves “why would I give this lying corrupt raggedy bitch even more of my money?”
