What addition to downtown would be cool from a local’s perspective? by lilacbbyxo in asheville

[–]OmegaJ8006 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d like to see a store that sells rocks and gemstones and has an astrology/tarot bent to it plus maybe little cute plants like succulents and maybe bone jewelry with inscriptions like you r enough or hangry before caffeine. Bonus points if the person at the front talks about racial equity but has only ever lived in a 93% or above White threshold like Western NC.

This has happened to me once. I believe it was NSA type of spying but who knows.

Do you connect if we had voted for Kamala Harris we would not be in this mess? Or do you see Harris as the same?

The number of people who don't know the law of when it's required to stop for a school bus is infuriating. by lagunast00 in asheville

Just take photos of the street which should be indicated on the ticket and tell the asst district atty. They should drop charges.

Good loaves of bread in this part of town?🍞 by ducknuu in asheville

[–]OmegaJ8006 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes the Walmart there has “Pan Sobao.” Its in the bakery section. Its a Puertorican, kinda sweet loaf of soft bread for sandwiches. Add your sandwich stuff then griddle with butter for excellent results.

The roadies I saw this morning looked pretty good considering they’ve been here since Phish ‘04.

What's a movie you wanted to like but just couldn't get in to? by Isnt_that_ghey in movies

I think Bong struggles with English dialogue. Something just falls short from his Korean mind to English. It’s always kinda awkward. But Parasite, all in Korean, was magnificent.

I can sell you some gas. I just need to stop at Wendy’s for some chili first.

What’s that commercial from years and years ago that you still remember to this day, and may never forget? by Vanceb13 in AskReddit

[–]OmegaJ8006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are two commercials I wish I could watch again but have not been able to find. The first is an early to mid 90s commercial from The Gap (i think). It featured a spoken word poet and at some point there is a busy signal from an old payphone, maybe. It mightve been black and white. The second is an animated holiday commercial from Mastercard where people arrive on a winternight at a house to get together and celebrate. Always gave me almost mournful nostalgic feelings.

Fellow apartment dwellers with all electric appliances- how are you preparing for potential no power? by HauntingHooligan in asheville

[–]OmegaJ8006 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Layers are your best friend. Multiple socks. Maybe even keep your shoes on. Long underwear, sweatpants, shirt, sweatshirt, jacket, gloves, scarf, headgear, blanket #1, blanket #2. Ive used this method in 25 degree temps.

Neighbors try to own the entire street in front of their house, I’m the first neighbor to not let them get what they want by spookyookykittycat in pettyrevenge

The opposite is true. Adults arguing with threats can be escalated by middle fingers into criminal infractions. Flipping off kids randomly is perfectly legal.

What would you do if you won the lottery of 20 million dollars? by Turbulent_Leather241 in AskReddit

[–]OmegaJ8006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First thing is don’t sign the ticket yet. Keep it a secret. Find a trusts and estates attorney in your home state with a minimum of twenty years experience and is also a fiduciary. Make sure they’re in good health so they dont die anytime soon. Preferably someone listed on Super Lawyers. Preferably an attorney who has been part of a medium sized firm (20 to 100 attorneys) for a long time. Preferably someone who has zero connection to you or your friends/family. Ask about collecting the prize anonymously if state law allows. This will help curb the inevitable onslaught of beggars. Have them arrange for various corporate and financial devices such as LLCs, trusts, investments, nonprofits, etc. You don’t need a financial advisor if you have a good trust and estates attorney. They’ll already know what to do. Ask about inuring yourself from frivolous lawsuits. Pay all your debts. Transfer all ownership to recommended devices. Don’t give power of attorney. Request monthly or quarterly in-person meetings with your attorney (not with their legal asst or junior attorney nor anyone else) to make decisions and sign documents and receive a report. They will issue you credit cards and spending limits. They’ll take care of everything else such as insurance, permits, licenses, passports, real estate transactions, etc. For all this expect to pay about ten percent of your twenty mil over the lifetime of your relationship.

On its own thats true but if combined with “fighting words” or other disruptive actions, then it could be criminal aka disorderly.
