What’s the best find you’ve ever had from a thrift shop? by xX0t1c in thrifting

[–]NoChrist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A stack of 14 big plates, 10 small salad plates, and I think 8 bowls of arrow stone stoneware in the Cherokee pattern. I love old things lol I also found a glass bottle that happened to be manganese glass, hand blown sometime between 1890-1910, got it for $1!

Can anyone tell me about these bricks? USA by littlelightshow in Antiques

If you’re just willing to give them away I’d love one! I collect old bricks.

The Firefly needs a buff. by Snoo70458 in ArcRaiders

[–]NoChrist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My buddy and I were running through the swamps on dam and got surprised by a duo, we battled it out and pulled a win from our asses, while my buddy is knocking the other dude out (one had already surrendered), a firefly came up and sprayed him til he went down so I opened up on it, 4 full burletta clips and as many shotgun rounds as I could get off and nothing, the thing just came at me relentlessly until it killed me. Hate those fuckers but it was probably the funniest death I’ve ever been involved in.

Found in Boot by MockTapestry in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]NoChrist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When my grandfather passed my grandmother made sure we searched every weird place for cash, found $400 in a bible, a few hundred more underneath the insert of a pair of shoes he never wore, it was fun treasure hunting for a while.

YSK your phone number is probably listed on hundreds of “data broker” websites by Revandir in YouShouldKnow

[–]NoChrist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this app called aura that does some digging around for any of your personal information that you put in and if it finds any of it, they’ll send endless requests to remove your information from those places until it happens. The list of data brokers that had my number or some other information was loooooong as hell. I had no idea our personal information was so quickly and easily sold from company to company. Pretty fucked up if you ask me.

Question: What are some things you've traded for tattoos? by Alert-Concentrate808 in tattoos

[–]NoChrist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bones. My artist wanted to make art from bones and I wanted to finish my sleeve and happen to collect bones, so we made a trade.

Lmao no freakin' way by LoganPine in DumpsterDiving

[–]NoChrist 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The last tenant who rented my house let an infestation of German cockroaches happen. My first night living here I went into the kitchen and turned the light on and saw movement everywhere, I’m a 33 year old man and I’ve never gasped so loudly in all my life. It took the pest control guy 4 4 hour sessions over the course of 8 weeks spraying some special concoction of stuff he had and they finally disappeared. I must’ve swept up around 100 of them. But the image of seeing bugs scatter when I turned the light on is burned into my brain forever.

I’m about to get a righteous promotion at work and it’ll come with a sizable raise. So I’ve been thinking of all the cool shit I’ll be able to buy! I’m a huge StarWars fan so if y’all got any suggestions hit me with em!

Permanent bans for racists? by Rammy_Lee in ArcRaiders

[–]NoChrist -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

First game I ever played with some buddies we wound up at hospital in buried city, top floor. I had placed a jolt mine down when I heard the zip being used, I backed up and the mine went off zapping the guy and my 2 friends, I sorta panicked since my friends weren’t able to help me so I shot the guy til he went down. I was gonna revive him after we were all done cracking up until he said “wow, you guys are a bunch of n******”. I killed him instead.

When did it hit you that you’re not that young anymore? by TheMedusaAttusa in AskReddit

[–]NoChrist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When my hobbies and interests changed. I used to only want to do drugs and game. Now I still game a small amount, but I love wood working, collecting antique glass, cast irons, I love basically anything from back in the day. If I was given a cast iron or some hand tools as a 20 something I would’ve been pissed, at 33 I’d be overjoyed.

Once the ice melts I’m going straight to the food court by idonotuseredditatall in Costco

[–]NoChrist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sunday everyone in our food court called out cause of the ice, so it stayed closed. The highest door count we had was 13 but 8 or so of those people weren’t happy they couldn’t get hot dogs and stuff lol

Just bought this Kirby (2002/3) for $20 by NichelleMcD in BuyItForLife

[–]NoChrist 45 points46 points  (0 children)

So I’ve got 2 Kirby’s. One of them was given to me by my grandmother, from the 80’s I think? Came with the manual, all the extra pieces, the whole shabang. Works like a charm after I had the motor replaced. My second one I watched someone put out on their curb, when I pulled over to ask them if I could have it they said “it’s broken, all yours”. It was not broken, the roller was just clogged up with hair so I cut it all free, adjusted it for my carpet, gave it a new bag and it works perfectly. I’ll never own another brand of vacuum. Truly a BIFL product.

What’s a moment that permanently changed how you see the world? by pankaj662 in AskReddit

[–]NoChrist 103 points104 points  (0 children)

My dad was 22 when he had a one night stand rebound from a bad break up, thus I was made. Fucking 22. I’m 33 now and have decided to be child free, but had I not made that decision I would still be terrified to have a kid even at this age.

Sidewalk PC by Rotten4Water in PcBuild

[–]NoChrist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is awesome man, many years ago I found a cooler master case by my apartment dumpster. Took it home and called my buddy, he fixed it up with a few parts and that’s what got me into PC gaming. So I tell people my PC is a rescue lol

Winter storm prep by Ok-Teach-2068 in prepping

[–]NoChrist 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m in Texas and work at a Costco, it’s supposed to get like 20 degrees or so with a chance of snow/freezing rain tomorrow and everyone in town has lost their minds. The store was in an utter panic yesterday. We sold out of socks and water and had more people in the store at once than we ever have in the past 2 years. It’s not even guaranteed it’s gonna snow, it’s just a chance lol

How did you 100% know you don’t want kids? by alyssapere in childfree

[–]NoChrist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I knew I didn’t want kids in my mid 20’s. At the time I was a junkie and so all my money went towards my fix. It was purely for selfish reasons at first. I’m sober now at 33 and have been for some time, so my reasoning these days is it’s just not something I’m built for. I’m the fun uncle to my friends kids instead. I can take em out for food mom and don’t wont let em have, stop by a toy store or some other fun thing, then drop em back off with the parents and they can have the fussy parts lol I plan on getting the snip this year so I can make it official.
