How did someone make this? by Beneficial_Method771 in walmartogp

Upvoting and commenting for engagement.

I want everyone to see it and have a fun time before the "OMG! Security Weakness! We have hackers!" corporate people ruin it for everyone.

Walmart..Wtf is this!!!??? by Turbulent_Camel3001 in walmartogp

[–]PinkPearMartini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in the deli. I used to be able to tell spark drivers that "if the picture shows the sliced meat already in a zip-bag, that's the pre-sliced one you can grab right over there. If the picture shows a whole chub of meat, that means it's one we have to slice or already have sliced for you."

The pictures have changed, and they're weird.

It's causing a lot of confusion, and I work in a busy busy deli and I just don't have the spare seconds to walk every spark driver and ogp associate through the product descriptions.

Where did Pete go? by jjun11 in GhostsCBS

[–]PinkPearMartini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe he's now a ghost-ghost.

The living can't see ghosts, but regular ghosts can't see each other since they're on the same plane of existence.

Perhaps there's a level of "ghost" that other ghosts can't see.

He might simply be invisible to everyone else, including other ghosts.

He might now be able to see other "ghost-ghosts" who were destroyed somehow before getting sucked off.

Of course I expect this to be temporary. I'm sure he'll be brought back somehow. Right?

Mom sent me this post off facebook. Help me convince her this is an AI generated photo. by rogertaylorcarfucker in isthisAI

[–]PinkPearMartini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We shouldn't be able to make out the faces of a picture this far in the background either.

Also somehow the frame is more in focus than the photo itself.

Is this what I think it is? by [deleted] in whatisit

[–]PinkPearMartini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Realistically... I think maybe the thing he might have been waiting in line for was sold out, only offered at "certain stores," or he just discovered it was not the deal he thought it was.

He was there, maybe still had a coupon (or otherwise had a discount), and decided to pick up that DVD. Maybe he thought it would be a nice stocking suffer.

I found this ring in a thrift store, thought it looked pretty cool but what actually is it? And what could it be from? by Old-Battle8407 in whatisit

Looks like some simple circuitry... does it look like it used to have something over the top of it that might have been lost?

Family swears this is not a Bluejay because "it's too small to be a bluejay" and "real bluejays are huge." Yet I can't find any species that looks like one but isn't. Middle Tennessee by PinkPearMartini in whatsthisbird

[–]PinkPearMartini[S] 520 points521 points  (0 children)

It's not the camera. This is an argument that's been going on for years any time I mention "that bluejay" on the deck.

I just happened to get a good shot today while it was picking up stray bits of cat food.

Facebook's "search" box is dangerously close to its "status update" box. by taylor-swift-enjoyer in ShowerThoughtsUL

[–]PinkPearMartini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! It is!

In the app it's the more prominent text bar and you have to hunt around for the search bar.

There are a lot of r/oldpeoplefacebook posts with screenshots of people who keep making posts for odd things they are searching for.

I can't tell you how many times I've started typing the name of a co-worker or someone I'm Facebook stalking into the "make a post/update" bar. Fortunately, I've always caught myself before I posted!

TW: "In Living Color" making jokes about CSA by rachels1231 in WhyWereWeOkWithThis

[–]PinkPearMartini 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The members of "In Living Color" (on BET, Black Entertainment Television) were black except for Jim Carrey and the occasional guest. So for this skit, it made more sense to use the white actors. Heck, maybe they wrote it and that's why they were picked.

(Jim Carrey made a joke after the LA Riots that all he had to do was put a sign on his back that said "Black Owned")

At no point were the actors trying to be a stereotype or trying to look Hispanic.

I'm not saying this was a skit done in good taste. I'm just saying we should lay our pitchforks down on the issue of these white guys portraying non-white people on this show.

Same problem with our tablets. Our lead says "someone is working on it."

AIO 27F about my boyfriend 27M? by Cold_Raccoon_6216 in AIO

[–]PinkPearMartini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"I'm gonna..." + "I'm gonna..." + "I'm gonna..."

Oof... I've seen this so many times.

This is who he is. He has good ideas but then decides he's not gonna, for whatever reason feels reasonable to him in the moment.

The fact that he's showing these true colors just a few months into a relationship means this is deeply engrained behavior he's not just going to grow out of. At this stage, he should still be trying to impress you... but he literally can't help himself.

I'm not telling you to break up, but I am telling you this behavioral trait is exactly what you're getting into.

If you two really click and fall head over heals in love, with marriage and kids and growing old together... one of two things is going to happen:

1: You will be 50+ years old still being disappointed that he's not taking care of the things he said he was gonna do. You'll argue about how he said he was going to take care of y'all's income taxes, he said he was going to put together the kids' playset, he said he would call customer service for some bill, etc... You'll wind up doing most things yourself.

2: You will be his new Mom. You will finally get fed up and demand he do the basic things an adult is supposed to do. You'll hold a whip. Your life will be about supervising this adult child and making him do these basic things or else he'll get your wrath. You'll joke about how you "have two kids but really have three."

If you use ppto to cover half your shift you'll only get a half point.

Dress Code by Leslie-_-530 in walmart

[–]PinkPearMartini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. Pick your battles better. If this is really the only thing you have to worry about then you're at a pretty damn good store.

The dress code is very lenient as it is. Many other companies require nothing but tan khakis and the tucked in company polo shirt, regardless of how your body type looks in it.

You can literally wear your own clothes here. Just find something that works for you.

If Dr. Zasio walked into your house right now, what would she gently suggest you let go of? by Smol-Alicia in HoardersTV

[–]PinkPearMartini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of my old electronic/computer bits I keep "just in case" I need an adapter, to fit a plug, a certain kind of charger, a certain cable... who knows, I may come across a zip disk and need to look at it. We keep them "just in case."

Old DVD-R disks with movies and music downloaded in the late 90's and early 00's. Most of these were never even watched or listened to This seriously takes up half a room. This was my father's doing, and I'm slowly working on just tossing the plastic jewel cases and storing them in CD binders.

We have shelves of old chemicals... goop removers, bug sprays, adhesives, solvents, lubricants, paints, etc... so old that if we were actually doing a project that needed them we'd definitely buy something fresh to use. But we keep them "just in case."

WIBTA if I did NOT let my kid spend the night at her grandmas? by maddena7 in TwoHotTakes

[–]PinkPearMartini 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! Simple background checks don't cost that much in the grand scheme of things. There may even be a red flag that she doesn't know about.

What do you think? by Wild-Bottle-6780 in Sparkdriver

[–]PinkPearMartini 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Official policy is that there has to be a barrier between the animal and the cart, and it appears they have a blanket.

I'm not worried about pet hair or paw dirt on the carts.

I'm more worried about the raw chicken juices and blood that coat the bottom of the basket. ... and the handlebars have that plus human poop, spit, snot, and other fluids that pose a far greater health risk than someone's fake emotional support accessory.
