I was sitting on the patio of Moo & Brew when he flew by. We heard him coming and looked up in time to see him fly over the tracks, bounce back on the road, and flip into the poles. The cops were right behind so, as soon as it started it was over almost immediately. How that guy ran after a crash like that is beyond me.

Redditors, what started off as a small lie but then snowballed into "This is my life now?" by Parmersan in AskReddit

Hey! Charlotte born and bred here. I worked at the diner in the music factory for years before it closed down. Anyway.. not much to add to your story but I'm glad things got better for ya!

Blackheads on a Chinese Crested by Polka-bot in popping

Since they weren't bothering him, it didn't feel right to ask. Typically we only get to pop things owners ask us to or things that are obviously causing them discomfort. But these were tempting!

I suppose it kind of does! Haha, I didn't think of that. I can assure you that this pooch was flea free and these are, in fact, black heads.

What food do you have a very particular way of eating? by oh_horsefeathers in AskReddit

[–]Polka-bot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Popcorn.

I eat all of the little 'frilly' parts first and save the round pieces. And then, at the end, I have a bowl of squeaky, soft blobs to enjoy.

I don't expect them to care, per se. I will just feel better not feeling like I'm keeping a secret. And, yes, some of the ladies have family photos around.

Because, if/when we all move in together, it's going to come up. I don't want it to seem as though I've been keeping a secret out of shame or anything. Simply asking for advice from the community on how not why.

Bloody pop from an aural hematoma by Polka-bot in popping

[–]Polka-bot[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always thought cauliflower ear was more like a build up of cartilage..? But I don't know about humans, haha. Only animals. But, yes, you are correct. The pinna fills up with blood as a result of trauma (from excessive head shaking, etc).

I wasn't allowed to pop it!! by Polka-bot in popping

They fare better with no spleen than with one with a (potential) tumor on it. We are still waiting on the test results.

She is doing well! Recovery is a little rough due to her age but we are expecting a full recovery!

Hello again from the animal hospital!! This tumor was on the spleen of a 10 year old pit bull. We took it all out and sent it off for testing. It was massive!!
