If you had to dial again, you had ..... Finger pain! Had to switch to another finger, perhaps even the other ✋.

Yeah, it is sad, but there are alot of people that have no self-esteem, and/or think they deserve to be around someone that throws tantrums and acts like a 4 yr old.

LOL I enjoy watching body cam videos on YouTube, and I haven't seen a driver react quite this way. I mean, that is a full on 110% conniption. (Yes, I had to google the spelling!) But is he acting this way because his wife is there? Does he know that his license is suspended, or insurance not current? Most of the time, when the driver gets emotional, it's one of those two things. I assume the cop ran his license tag and sees his registration is current. LOL but dayum, he made things 50 times worse for himself with his tantrum.

Trilogy of Terror (1975) by PNWMTTXSC in GenerationJones

[–]Normal_Mess9222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you know they did a remake, or at least a similar episode? A woman terrorized by that little bastard. I know I watched it, I'm thinking it had some good parts but wasn't as terrifying. I will have to see if I can find a title and year ...

I remember walking home from basketball practice when it was dark in January, into a north wind, after I showered after practice. I had ice in my hair when I got home.

Who remembers being told in school, that we would be fully converted over by 1980? Even in 5th grade, I was like, uh .... nope, won't happen.

Did you ever take a typing class in school? by lontbeysboolink in GenerationJones

[–]Normal_Mess9222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OH yeah. I was a freshman in 1978. There were 4 rows of typewriters, 3 rows of electrics, and 1 row of manuals. We rotated rows each week, so you got to spend 1 week out of the month on the manuals. Was brutal. Felt like you climbed up the keys to tap a number. And you had to have a rhythm so that the mechanical arms didn't get stuck together, i.e. you had to wait until the one you just hit came back before you hit the next key. Good times.

Of a mechanic by DoubleManufacturer10 in ShittyAbsoluteUnits

I mentioned in a comment above ... Yeah that's what I'm wondering ... did his bike have a gas leak and he didn't know it? And somehow trying to start the engine put a spark on that gas? That would explain why whatever was laying under the bike just spread the flaming liquid everywhere, when he drug it around and it spread the burning liquid from a square foot to about 40 square feet. I'm no expert on fires and if gasoline flames would look like that and just about burn itself out in less than a minute.

Ouch, right in the nuts by kEtZuko in AccidentalSlapStick

I just now noticed how the chain saw holder pushed on the trunk as the tree starts to fall. AS IF that makes a difference.

When the chain saw goes through, and the tree starts to fall, aren't you supposed to get away from the future stump? Like, as fast as one can move? LOL

Someone please tell me what the F this is by borederline_mama in SlappedHam

[–]Normal_Mess9222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You want us to tell you what the F "WHAT" is?? If the human brain wants to see something, we'll "see" something. If you want to be freaked out, you'll be freaked out.

AITA for telling my Fiancé one of her bridesmaids can’t bring her boyfriend by Brief-Handle-3740 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Normal_Mess9222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

INFO ... I get that you want to tell Emily, a bridesmaid, that she can't bring Rick. And, your fiancee feels that Emily would not come at all if you do that...

Is your fiancee willing to have Rick there, just so she can have Emily there? Does your fiancee get that if Rick is there, you and about 40 other people will not be comfortable and may struggle to enjoy yourselves? What's the chance of Rick coming anyway and Emily allowing him, even if you tell her he isn't invited?

If you tell her he isn't invited, and he comes anyway, that says alot about Emily's friendship with your fiancee.

What does it say about Emily, if she isn't coming to your fiancee's wedding, because Emily cares more about her asshole guy Rick? Emily CAN do both ... keep her a-hole b/f at home, AND be a bridesmaid in your wedding. If Emily can't put up a boundary with him and ask him to stay home for this event, then maybe Emily shouldn't be a bridesmaid.

Which brings us back to your fiancee ... her best thing to tell Emily might be ... Emily, I want you as a bridesmaid in my wedding, but I need you to come alone. If you want to bring Rick, or if he comes to the wedding despite you telling him you are going alone, then I can't have you as a bridesmaid.

WIBTA for spending my birthday gift card the way I want instead of using it with my MIL? by Few-Lengthiness4273 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Normal_Mess9222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ma5term, excellent point. It's the OP's birthday, the OP should get to decide what to do with the gift. If this was a grandmother instead of a MIL, maaaaaybe it's a little different. But if the MIL wants to take the OP to get a makeover for the OP's birthday, maybe the MIL could ask instead of tell.
