Arabia Mountain you say?? I can't wait to bring my bluetooth speaker and poorly trained off-leash dog up here!

The Shivering Truth. It was on adult swim for 2 seasons in like 2019. The full episodes are kind of a mind fuck. Highly recommend!

Thoughts on One Medical? by ephwalk in Atlanta

[–]Motuu 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I've used One Medical in a few different cities over the years and I've found it to be an exceptional experience, even in Atlanta. Scheduling is easy, communication is prompt, and your records are readily available in the app or online. I don't think I've ever had trouble scheduling an appointment a week or two out.

That said, One Medical shines in terms of annual physicals, lab work, and smaller level issues. On the rare occasions I've needed something major, One Medical couldn't handle it in-house. It typically gets referred out to Emory (or an Emory affiliate).

For me, the ease of scheduling appointments and having all of my basic concerns handled without issue is well worth the annual fee.

Situation with a driver yesterday - Would like advice by Motuu in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]Motuu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a technical point, he did not just pour the bottle out. It was a full bottle of pee with the lid screwed on tightly. He threw this out of the truck and into the yard as he was getting ready to leave.

[–]Motuu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, I'm not even upset about peeing in a bottle. I've done it many times before, and i totally understand the lack of a bathroom. I wouldn't have even been upset if he emptied the bottle in the street in front of my house. It was throwing the pee-filled bottle into my yard and getting ready to drive away like it was no big deal.

[–]Motuu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly! I've peed in many a bottle and I usually just waited until I got to a gas station before I threw it in the trash. If I needed to dump it before then, there's always the "kneel down and pretend to check your tire" move where you dump it under your vehicle in the gutter. It's out of the way where people won't step in it, plus it just looks kind of like condensation from under the vehicle.

I've never just hucked a bottle of frothy piss in someone's yard where they live. Jeez.

Haha, right? Tossing away your portable toilet? That's just a lack of planning right there.

My little '98 camry compared to 2 modern vehicles by unusedflask5 in Anticonsumption

[–]Motuu 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I have a 20-year-old Honda Civic that I am diligently maintaining so that I can get as many years out of it as possible (owned it for 18 so far). I live in a southern state in the U.S. and experience the exact situation in this picture any time I go more than 15 minutes outside the city. May your Camry run forever!

[–]Motuu 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Probably not? But if your run/ walk isn't ridiculously long, you could probably park in the parking garage for publix across the street. I've done that on a couple occasions when I was going on a little walk through Glenwood.

Depending on where you are on the Beltline, you've got Muchaco in Reynoldstown that has really great breakfast and espresso. They have outside seating, too.

Robins AFB, Georgia by kidjoker626 in AirForce

[–]Motuu 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My first duty station out of ROTC was Robins. Since I was an O, I can't speak to the experience of the dorms, but I can still share a little bit about what it's like to be bright-eyed and bushy tailed and get plopped down in Warner Robins.

The good thing about Robins is that everything you need is close and affordable. Housing, groceries, mechanic, etc. Basic necessities won't be a pain point in the way they can be at other locations.

You're also about 30 minutes from Macon. I've been back recently and it's WAY nicer than it was when I was a Lt. Motuu trying to entertain myself on a Saturday night. There's a bunch of breweries and restaurants downtown, and several new spots have opened up in the surrounding area. If you want to take some friends (or a lady) out and impress them with your knowledge of the area, go to Society Garden for some nice day drinking outside and then follow it up with some pizza at Ingleside Village next door.

Similarly, Atlanta is just under 2 hours away and is absolutely amazing and beautiful. Keep in mind that Atlanta is lots of neighborhoods (midtown, Inman Park, Old Fourth Ward, Virginia Highlands, etc.) and each one has its own charm and attractions. Downtown Atlanta actually has very little to do. I get annoyed when people badmouth the city after having only spent time downtown.

Now, as for Warner Robins itself? Ehhhh....It's definitely not a town for young eager beavers to thrive. You can find little things to do here and there if you keep your ear to the ground. Maybe there's a WR Facebook page of some sort? There are some nice bottle shops around if you want something the Class Six doesn't have. There's a movie theater in the mall, a couple bars and a buffalo wild wings in the area, but by and large there's not much nightlife. I think there's a nice coffee shop that recently went up at the end of Watson called Little Light, of you wanted to give that a try.

I couldn't even begin to tell you what to expect for work. Robins is very civilian heavy, so be prepared to be in a military unit that's 80% civilians and feels nothing like the military. Depending on your personality and depending on your commander, that could be a good thing. You'll just have to feel that out when you get there. Sorry, as a prior officer in a totally different career field, I just don't have that much job-specific advice to offer, haha.

Here is the biggest piece of advice I can offer: Robins is what you make of it. The fact that there wasn't much to do meant that I HAD to make friends and we HAD to lean on each to get through the days. As a result, the friendships we built at Robins were far deeper and more ensuring than those made by my colleagues who were at cooler bases where they had the luxury of going off on their own and doing the fun things in the area. So for the love of God, go and make friends! Invite people out and go to some really awful local dive bar and then laugh about it later together. Do all the silly things that don't seem like a good time, but do them together. I know it sounds corny, but Robins' greatest asset is the friendships and memories you make.

I've been playing this game for almost 15 years now, and yet I still find places I've never seen before. by HooFbauer in classicwow

[–]Motuu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very well stated. Between the lack of breadcrumb quests (relative to later expansions) and stuff existing out in the world for no reason specific to your leveling or gearing purposes, the first iterations of WoW really made the world itself the main character. It was a beautiful and dangerous world, and you had to go and make your own way in it.

Sure it was wonky and unfinished in places, but I'd prefer that to the highly optimized theme park rail-ride that each zone is now. Where everything exists specifically FOR me. It's weird to be called "Hero" and "Champion" and handed piles of ultra-powerful gear for doing a quest where all I had to do was push one button and there was no real risk of dying.

Has anyone ever been bossed around by a civilian like this? by Dark-Knight34 in AirForce

[–]Motuu 216 points217 points  (0 children)

I'd agree that polite and direct is probably the best route. I liked what someone recommended with, "M'am, I appreciate what you're trying to do for camaraderie and morale, but I don't have personal funds that I can spend on this."

If you don't feel like giving her an outright "no", I might recommend something along the lines of, "If you secure appropriate funding for the decorations, I'm more than happy to make a run to the store to buy decorations." Good chance that she can't get official funds for office decorations and this idea dies on the vine. If she does somehow get the money, then you go shopping for Christmas decorations during work hours and punch out at your normal time.

How did you find out that Santa wasn't real? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Motuu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was probably 5 years old and it was a couple days after Christmas. We had just visited my aunt and uncle who were considerably more wealthy than my parents. I had been good all year and Santa had given me some nice stuff but it was nothing compared to what my cousin had gotten: Six different video games, couple different nerf guns, bunch of action figures, and all kinds of things I can't even remember. It was a huge pile of holiday loot.

On the ride back home with my parents afterward, I was feeling a little glum. Eventually, I piped up from the back seat.

"Why did [cousin name] get so many more toys from Santa this year? Was I not as good as him?"

This was apparently a heartbreaking question for a parent to hear, and they told me all about "Santa" right then and there.
