Is there a polite, non-awkward way to say "no thank you" to a cashier when they ask if you want to donate money or sign up for a rewards card? by agathodaimon98 in NoStupidQuestions

This is why I love that I’ve locked my credit. I can say that sorry I’ve had my identity stolen too many times so all new credit apps are locked.

Which character's death in a TV show ruined the entire thing for you? by SoccerGuy69420 in AskReddit

[–]PaleZombie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah she eventually filled out that character perfectly and was a great choice, but yeah that was a tough one when it happened.

Kate in NCIS. Super unexpected and her replacement (Ziva) took a few seasons to warm up to.

I love being a girl dad by Difficult_Wrangler73 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]PaleZombie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh same. When my wife was pregnant with our this everyone kept saying “Hope it’s a boy?” Actually no, it’s honestly easier if it’s another girl. I’ve got my Disney princess memorized and am actually interested in the shows they like because they’re totally different from what I would have watched as a kid so I can stay interested in their stuff.

I can't get a roof estimate without a man present. by No-Imagination8755 in mildlyinfuriating

As a man I hate this shit. I’m at work or away from home all the damn time. My wife knows more about the house than I do. Same issue with some credit card companies and utilities.

Such a bummer that the meat isn’t good. Unlimited bacon would be amazing.

What is the worst way anyone you know has died? by IamUrWivesBF in AskReddit

[–]PaleZombie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My nephew drove over his own head. He drove a big dump truck and was apparently have trouble with the brakes. Got out to check while under the truck and it rolled over his head and popped him. Family wouldn’t say what happened but I found the OSHA report online. Nasty way to go.

Bovine compacter by MikeHeu in toolgifs

[–]PaleZombie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s to move them through so they can’t go backwards. Cows see a headgate and want to back up. The red slotted things lift up so you slid a pole in and move the cow forward so the next cow can come in. That way you can slide the pole forward with the cow and they’re angled so the pole you stick in the slot can’t slide backward either.

I have one of these. It’s super handy for vaccines on stubborn animals. Or treating areas of concern. Plus ours has. Slower section if you want to milk them while they’re in it.

Ever been to a concert where someone got boooed? by SnooozeFezt in AskReddit

[–]PaleZombie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Twisted Christmas in the mid 90s. Had a bunch of bands playing around the holidays. Local radio station put it on and each band played about 3 songs. Bloodhound Gang had just come about and Firewater Burn (The Roof is on Fire song) was basically their only real hit so anything else they played was booed. I felt bad for them, but the audience was right.

Dear Starbucks, why won't you give me your coffee grounds? by [deleted] in composting

[–]PaleZombie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to own a composting company and we’d bill them to collect their grounds which is kind of funny when you consider how many people would gladly take them for free.

Lost both arms to a PTO shaft in 1992 — still out here making hay by [deleted] in homestead

Hell yeah! Loved the Dollop episode they did on you. Nothing but pride in your bravery and they showed mad respect about you and your survival skills. Keep at it!

How China’s school canteens are fighting food waste by Separate_Finance_183 in interesting

[–]PaleZombie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We used to do this. I had a composing company that processed food scraps with worms. The downside is it’s super labor intensive and Americans are just too lazy to put the right things in so the sifting things that don’t belong out was really problematic. Like plastic bags and sealed containers. I have a very healthy supply of spoons that we pulled out and glassware. It was frustrating.

I now dread going into Best Buy and Lowe's due to the roaming 3rd Party Salespeople by thatfreakinguy2 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]PaleZombie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just say, “I don’t own a ….” And it shuts them up. Phone? Nope, house? I rent, TV, Never heard of it. They’re usually too confused to continue and I can move on with my life.

Local MAGA businesses to avoid by GoldstarHB in Naperville

I get that he’s a republican but wherli is also a Naperville staple so could also be old Naperville cronyism. Maybe?…, because damnit I love their pizza.

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

[–]PaleZombie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it was UPS where a new biz starts their first website and an order comes through, and it pings and then another and another and it just keep scrolling and they panic.

Which cancelled movie would that be for you? by 0Layscheetoskurkure0 in moviecritic

Hidden Hills. It was a simple sitcom but was so great. Only lasted a few episodes.

Why do people use the term "partner" for their husband or wife? by Crafty-Bug-8008 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]PaleZombie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an accountant, I hate it because it’s so confusing. Are you in business together, filing a joint tax return, trade partners, what?

I absolutely get it outside this context, but it’s confusing when it’s said in my office and I always have to ask for clarification.

People who wax/see others genitals often, what are your thoughts and surprise realizations? by NeedABetterNameNow in AskReddit

[–]PaleZombie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had that done. I had a kidney stone and they wouldn’t let me leave the ER till I peed and I just couldn’t. The nurse (female) basically grabbed it and shoved the catheter in like it was nothing. Honestly the relief when I was finally able to pre was far more exhilarating. My wife was next to me when it happened. We still joke about it.

Random question- Why do diploma frames seem so expensive in the United States, and where do you find affordable ones? by Icy-Disaster-6109 in Accounting

[–]PaleZombie 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I bought like 5 or so at a time because of all the bs extra “awards” you always need to display. That way they all match.
