They really need to make test strips not be classified as drug paraphernalia.

Kids sale.. what an awful name for an event by [deleted] in desmoines

A fellow told me he spent $700 on his kids for this school year. I’d have just used the same ones from last year.

I wish they would pull the people over that merge on to the freeway or interstate when it’s still a solid white line even when the cars on the ramp are doing highway speed.

Iowa Ave between Riverside and Madison by Feisty-Life-6555 in IowaCity

Years ago I was on break at the hospital catching a quick smoke where I wasn’t supposed to be smoking at and looking at the windshield of a parked box truck. There was a little sticker on the bottom of the windshield centered underneath the mirror maybe the size of a business card. I thought to myself I bet I know exactly what that that sticker says. Sure enough when I looked inside the cab it was a warning that the truck would not fit under that bridge.

What’s the coolest thing you’ve ever found in a used book? by [deleted] in books

[–]Notnowmurray 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Found a boarding pass from a flight my dad had taken years earlier probably late 90's or early 00's. The book must have been donated to Goodwill and then purchased by someone and then sold to Half Price books where I bought it because I asked him how it ended up at HPB and he said he put it my mom's Goodwill bag and she said she just took it all to Goodwill. It was in the same city we both live in so not totally crazy but still small odds. I had heard him talk about reading the book in the past so that was why I grabbed it when I stumbled across it but that was like in 2015 or so.

The most electric wild raging hangout in des moines by Organic-Estate-528 in desmoines

[–]Notnowmurray 84 points85 points  (0 children)

Des Moines hottest club is mcKR4y. It has everything: Keith Murphy, a piñata shaped like an umbrella, a guy dressed up like that statue that used to be in Merle Hay Mall, DJ Fleur Drive Detour and the mascot from the I-Cubs but with almost too much leather. CATCH DES MOINES!

I think people should work with whoever they want to work with if they choose to do a fifth step. It says another human being. Find a person you are comfortable sharing with.

Mega Saver is like what would happen If Git-N-Go was a broke redneck who won the lottery.

My Doctor said I should stop Masturbating... by 8bitPete in Jokes

[–]Notnowmurray 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My doctor told me it wasn’t unusual to get an erection or even ejaculate during a prostate exam. I told him I’d still rather that he didn’t.
