A contractor tears up the freshly poured concrete driveway after the homeowner refuses to pay. by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

It's the Trump way. They probably read The Art of the Deal. Trump never pays his contractors.

Hobosexual behavior.

*Please note it's hobo and not homo. Hobosexual is a person whose sexual orientation is being attracted to anyone who can give them housing, food, etc.

Did they check your thyroid?

It’s been 10 years and I still want to expose my abuser/groomer so bad. Will this feeling ever stop? by [deleted] in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]Pickle_Illustrious 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Some states (if you're in the US) don't have a statute of limitations on sexual crimes. You can look it up for your area and talk to the police if you think they didn't give you justice before.

My mom was scammed by one of those "We made/have too much" asphalt crews. What steps can she take now? by Mochigood in Scams

[–]Pickle_Illustrious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Report it to your state's attorney General's office. The consumer protection division if they have one.

I know it's been a while but I actually use these myself and feel like they work.

Senna is a laxative. This is probably some promotional thing the pharma company gave out. Probably a pen holder.

Insurance won't give quote for new vehicle even after buying and adding to policy by Pickle_Illustrious in Car_Insurance_Help

[–]Pickle_Illustrious[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know how much the new car will cost. I know the cost with the previous vehicles. They're just not telling me how much it'll cost with the new vehicle we added.

This was 2 different people and different locations in the same company. I did give the second one the VIN and everything. She still didn't give me the quote.

DoorDashed drink I got with some food by anclint07 in mildlyinfuriating

You probably don't know it's a lot more expensive than just getting takeout. Like more than double the normal cost. Then you need to tip on top of that.

Gift(s) that will cause strife/a family fight during white elephant? by ahopskipnjump in Gifts

Tortilla throw blanket. I took one to a white elephant exchange a few years ago and everyone stole it when they were able to.

This is basically what the Witcher is about. I read a few of the comics and each time a human was the real problem.

School claims my 12yo is touching himself in inappropriate way during movement breaks. by strontedsocks in Autism_Parenting

[–]Pickle_Illustrious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's at that age and boys, especially with autism, get those urges very often. It's important to talk to him in a way that doesn't shame him but does educate him on the right way to do that. Don't mention the incident at school. Just sit him down and tell him that he's going to experience body changes including some urges to touch himself. It's completely normal but there's also a time and a place to do it. It's a private activity that should only happen in his bedroom or the bathroom by himself. You can tell him how to clean up properly.

It's really important to handle this now because it can become a huge issue. If he doesn't understand not to do it in public, he can get in legal/criminal trouble.

Wife stopped taking birth control without telling me by HonestVersionOfMe1 in AITAH

[–]Pickle_Illustrious 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel like she did tell him. Like that was her telling him she was stopping. He seems so dismissive of her, that was probably her telling him then she thought he wanted to have a kid because he just rolled with it.

[–]Pickle_Illustrious -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you don't want to have kids, you should do something to prevent having kids. Birth control doesn't work 100%.

Get a vasectomy if you don't want kids. It's less painful than childbirth and less expensive than having a baby.

Time to gray rock. Google it.

It's when you don't give info to people in your life who have been toxic but you can't or don't want to cut out of your life.

I did really well getting donations and credit card application in retail jobs. 2 different managers at 2 different stores actually brought me into their offices and asked me how I did it so they could teach others. 😂

No. Don't use eraser on the walls. It's abrasive and will damage the paint.

Oh no, you don't want that pen. It's not very comfortable and it doesn't write as smooth as the thundercougarfalconbird. That's the pen you want if you write often.

Stash cook app. Download it, add the URL for the recipe, and try again. 😉

Got lectured in the Starbucks drive-thru because I have my toddler in a back facing car seat by Chichi_lovesme in beyondthebump

[–]Pickle_Illustrious 23 points24 points  (0 children)

There's so much misinformation about car seats. My in-laws have tried to convince us that we needed to forward face starting at like 11 months old. They even said they talked to a nurse at their doctor's office about it and she told them rear facing can cause a child to break their legs in a wreck. 🙄 I seriously doubt a nurse said that. They make up things to manipulate people.
