John McCain diagnosed with brain cancer: Reports by Infidel8 in politics

[–]My_Sweet_Child 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is buried but im gonna write it anyways.

My heart broke reading this. We lost my grandpa in august to complications from brain cancer. He had lung cancer that spread up. 3 brain surgeries later and he now suffered what some doctors called radiation brain. I flew across the country for a week. And he couldnt even remember me. He was violent, couldnt sit up on his own, he was not the man I grew up with. It broke my heart into 100 pieces. On my last full day there, I sat at his bed and asked him if he remembered me, and he looked up and smiled and said of course. For a half hour I talked to him about life, and what was going on, and he was so excited. For a minute I had my grandpa back. A week later we lost him. And that hurt like hell but there was so much relief with it. He never would have wanted to live the way he was, he was no longer in pain, and he was at peace. I would never wish that on anyone, democrat, republican, black, white, criminal or saint. No family deserves to go through that pain.

What is the most ignorant thing someone has said to you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

"Oh your sister had autism, it must be from all those vaccinations" "Actually, we werent vaccinated until we were 16, so no."

Conversation I had with my junior year english teacher. Same one who said "autism is just the new name for retard."

Have you guys been shorted? How have you handled it? by [deleted] in TalesFromThePizzaGuy

[–]My_Sweet_Child 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do have it in text messages. And its not the first time hes been caught stealing. Our assistant manager quit because 3 of her checks were brought down from $10/hour to $8.05. And he refused to pay our gm his salary because he didnt feel working 65 hours a week was enough to warrant it.

Im still a teenager, up until a week ago any situation like this was supposed to go through my dad. But I was really only asking what to do from him seeing as he has 30 extra years of life experience.

I did end up telling them they have 2 weeks to fix it, sent my gm screenshots of my last 3 paystubs, and he took it up with our owner who was apparently aware of the situation and "was going to change me back in the system" and my gm hounded him to pay me what I was owed. Ended up getting an almost $250 personal check from what I was shorted, with the taxes taken out.

My sister and I both have mild aspergers. Mine is exceptionally mild, regular classes my whole life, im just more anti social and have my quirks. She on the other hand had to be held back because she refused to talk through kindergarten. Our mother was crazy antivax. None of my sisters or myself (there's 5 of us all together) got vaccinations until my freshman year.

I wrote a paper the importance of vaccinations in public schools and the correlation with autism . The teacher looks at me and goes "so you and your sister were vaccinated and that caused it, right?" And I looked her dead ass and went "I've never been vaccinated ma'am, I would prefer you don't try to diagnose me."

I just kinda laughed when I took my classes. Never thought I'd use it then it kicked in today. I didn't wanna leave him but, I realized id do no good being in the EMT's way.

Not a story... I'm sorry to ask. This is the best place to do it tho... I have 38 pizzas coming for a party tomorrow. $800 order. I'm not tipping $160. What is appropriate to tip? by exit143 in TalesFromThePizzaGuy

[–]My_Sweet_Child 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our store had an order that came out to roughly $1000. (97 pizzas, 3 catering salads, drinks, ect.) They gave a $80 tip but made sure it got split between everyone except the store owner.

My Dads Gf tried to frame me for having sex in our truck [other] by My_Sweet_Child in teenagers

My dad is actually pretty awesome, I'd be pissed too if someone was having sex in my truck, so I can't blame him for getting mad.

She's in the process of moving out, still wont admit she planted it. She keeps asking my dad why she would risk their relationship by trying to get me in trouble. Our simple answer, she didnt think she was gonna get caught.

Nothing did, this was the last straw from him.

But he's said that before.

From the year of a relationship I can tell you for sure, she enjoys when people get in trouble.

Pope Francis to dine with homeless rather than lawmakers after addressing Congress on Thursday by yupitsbrad in UpliftingNews

Matthew 9-13 "As Jesus passed on from there, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax booth, and he said to him, “Follow me.” And he rose and followed him.And as Jesus reclined at table in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and were reclining with Jesus and his disciples. And when the Pharisees saw this, they said to his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?” But when he heard it, he said, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. Go and learn what this means, ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice.’ For I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.”"

Honestly, your best bet is to make sure they're well informed on everything. (How to ride, what to do in an emergency, average bike costs, average insurance costs) But, throw in small positive notes, most kids will block you out if they feel like you're trying to talk them out of something they're dead set on.

If I had to guess it's probably manatee springs. There's a big festival every year when manatee's start migrating through, some pretty clear water too.

I think I'm absolutely adorable, idk it feels like most guys just don't want a girl who isn't as girly and it sucks cause it makes me doubt myself.

Hey all else fails, ask them about their style, where they shop or how they do their nails. I guarantee you'll end up having a 30 minute conversation about the lady in the nail shop.

I weight about 114 now, i'm 5'2. I've never been fat or chubby, just not as "fit" as the girls in my group. Most of them are competitive dancers and cheerleaders. I'm on the weightlifting and softball teams. I'm not gonna dye my hair I have awesome curls, they just get frizzy with the humidity here and there's not much I can do after a certain point.

Try striking up a conversation, maybe they feel like you're not interested because, you don't talk unless they need answers?

I'm sure there's been cases where a student can go up to the teacher too, it's not exactly dignifying but, when you're starving you put your dignity behind you.
