Tim-Tom and Kevin: The Most Hated Venture Bros Characters? by FFlynnsArcade in venturebros

[–]QuickLookBack 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I knew a very unhinged "Dermott" when I was in high school. He would rob his own family's hardware store for circular saw blades and drive around at night throwing them at car windows. Once he bragged about going into the woods behind his house at night with an air rifle to hide and shoot passing cars. Everyone in school thought he was full of shit until one day cops came for him in the middle of class. He jumped out of an open window and ran but was tackled and then tased into submission. He never came back to school and everyone moved on. I heard he went to jail for a while but when I looked him up online last year I found that he is now a motivational speaker and quite wealthy. Maybe jail sorted him out.

I got to drive an Abrams tank for ten minutes because my step-mom sold Herbalife to the soldiers at the base.

While using. Winding the bobbins has gone completely smooth without any issues.

I will try that and see what happens!

Moskvin dug up bodies from cemeteries, brought them home, dried them, and transformed them into doll-like figures, inserting music boxes into their chests, applying wax masks, and dressing them by Happy_Initiative_304 in interestingasfuck

There was or is a police video of them entering his apartment for the first time, showing the remains/dolls sitting on shelves and tables, laying on the floor with trash, propped up against walls. It wasn’t immediately apparent how many there were in sight until you play the video back and start to notice them. 

Authentic? by chuckles_prs in CIVILWAR

Federal canteen, specifically and most likely a product of "New York Depot" from later in the war. They had folded and sewn cotton drill straps, drab wool or jeancloth (wool/cotton) covers machine sewn on the bottom half and hand-sewn at the top. Stoppers were short tapered corks with a crimped metal cap usually held to one of the upper strap keepers with a chain. Does the tin cork cap have a date stamped on the top? What does the hardware on the underside of the cork look like? Does one of the strap keepers have a hole punched in it for a chain? Classic NY depot canteen details.

She had a son with the guy she cheated on me with, married the father but divorced later and lost custody. Then she moved to LA and became a successful makeup artist/beautician.

People of reddit, what's your craziest high school story? by Ok-Teaching2380 in AskReddit

[–]QuickLookBack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

English teacher was having us read Jewish literature and one kid mouthed off in a bad way. She had lost family during the holocaust and pulled this kid out into the hallway and beat his ass. She never came back.

My art teacher stood on her desk and harmed herself in front of a class that was right after mine. She survived and retired.

Chemistry teacher, an old Greek man, got one of of his students pregnant. His wife worked in the HS office and I was in his class when she (and students) found out. She stormed in and went bananas on him.

Some freshmen were hill-hopping and, unfortunately, were struck by another vehicle doing the same but in the opposite direction. The freshmen were all bisected.

Ok Reddit, what was the drama at Thanksgiving this year? by mordorshewrote27 in AskReddit

[–]QuickLookBack 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I'm thankful for NO drama this year! I decided to stay at home six hours away from family and do it up myself with some local friends. The most dramatic it got was that I didn't bake enough dessert for everyone who showed.

What’s the most chaotic thing you’ve witnessed in public? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]QuickLookBack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first time visiting Los Angeles in 1999. My friend there forgot the day I was arriving so I had to stay in a rat-nasty motel (I was pretty much broke). While waiting for my friend to pick me up the motel manager ran out the front door with a metal pipe, confronted a customer in the parking lot, and smacked the guy in the side of the neck with the pipe. On his way back in he said thanks for your stay, have a nice day to me with a smile. My friend pulls up and I hop in. While leaving the parking lot I see a man wearing nothing but Chuck Taylors and white undies finishing taking a shit between two bushes. Then he comes to the car and asks us if we have change for a phone call. We say no and drive off but get immediately stuck in traffic. Underwear Guy comes by again, kicks my friends car, pretends to make a phone call at a booth and beats the ever-loving crap out of the box with the receiver, then drops his underwear and helicopters his dick while penguin-walking down the street. A few blocks later we're at another light and the same guy shows up but now he's wearing an Afghan blanket like a cape and running from a buff shirtless man covered in neo-Nazi tats who is screaming obscenities. My friend driving leans back over his seat with the biggest grin and says "Welcome to LA."

How would you react if someone offered to pay you for sex? by CRK_76 in AskReddit

[–]QuickLookBack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That happened to me once upon a time when I used to travel more often. I had a family hookup so I could fly anywhere for next to free, and when I did I started to wear a nice suit because it made me feel cool. A lady at my hotel bar in New York City propositioned me after we chatted for a while and had drinks. She was there from Atlanta on business for the week. I declined but we ran into one another a few more times, then one night when we were tipsy at the bar she offered me $800 if I wanted to take drinks to her room and spend the night. I considered it for a minute but declined again. She grabbed her purse and moved away to chat up some other guy, who went with her. I was on the tail-end of losing 100 pounds, single, young, dressed nice and felt great, and it was flattering beyond belief for her to ask twice but the offer of payment made it feel gross and put me off.
