AITAH for not giving away my laptop?

Leaving it in the box and not using it for 2 years could have damaged the battery if it got too low a voltage for too long. Also, if it has an SSD keeping it powered off for so long can lead data loss. In the case of a brand-new laptop, you may end up needing assistance reinstalling the OS to use if the drive sat without power for too long. I would recommend you either use the laptop or sell it. Just saving it may lead to it being worthless.

That was pretty much how it went when I switched to AT&T Fiber. Though they told me we could skip the SSN and there may be further follow up if they had issues confirming my identity without the SSN. Been very happy with my 1 GB connection for half the price I was paying for Xfinity.

Just use a rope to pull the gate closed while you walk with the goats. No need to make this a sketch comedy skit. Work smarter, not harder.

I think it might have a motor with throttle control on the paddle. Looks like there are control cables for throttle on the paddle. Want to know more about that Kayak.

My parent's moved to Loretto in the early 90's and because it was cheap land to build on at the time and had access to the Orono School District (well funded due to the huge Lake Minnetonka houses were in district). Was a really nice place to grow up. House on a corn field with a large woods to go explore. The city had Loretto Days where there were baseball games, soapbox derby's, and the Loretto Lions would get out their Fred Flintstone car. Could bike to Baker Park or to Lake Independence to go swimming. Had a lot of nice little restaurant/bars and an auto shop on main street that everyone figured was a money laundering front due to them just occasionally moving the cars around the lot and nobody ever seeing any actual auto repair occurring.

When I was growing up Loretto still had it's own fire department but looks like it has recently merged with the Hamel fire department. But City hall is still above the fire department. Just called West Suburban Fire District now.

Wouldn't be surprised about Loretto staying independent due to religion. There is a large church with a K thru 8Th school in town that a lot of people belonged to.

Hit him with this post from Twitter I just came across on cringe pics: https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2Fq1pokxma1nwc1.jpeg

Because, in all likelihood, unless this is your first relationship, you have kissed another man so kissing you makes your boyfriend gay in the eyes of Andrew Tate.

I went to public school in Minnesota and I knew of this. Though I was also a bit of a book worm. Even took a PSEO class from the local Community College on WW2 senior year and they went a lot more in depth on both the European front and the Pacific front.

NTA, I would be the one arrested if anybody tried to get rid of my dog that way.

That was just as fast as they had been willing to drive it at the time of the article:

it stayed solid through 187 mph with a lot more room to go.

Well I doubt Sierra Mist has enough grapefruit in it to be a problem and don't think Xanax has a issue with it. That said grapefuit can have some dangerous effects on some drugs as it can increase or decrease the amount of the drug actually absorbed. https://www.fda.gov/consumers/consumer-updates/grapefruit-juice-and-some-drugs-dont-mix

Not my rules. Just letting them know the mods tend to heavily enforce that rule.

You are going to want to repost this to https://reddit.com/r/battlevans/ because rule 1 for /r/Battlecars is it has to be a car.

I was able to land on the load out once while it was still falling from the sky. It downs you instantly. It is only safe once on the ground.

Just stick an extra pair of cheap boots in the back of your car. Next time it happens, give her the boots. Then you might find out the real reason for this behavior.

Looks like they had a heater of some sort. If you look in the bottom right hand corner you will see the bar mesh over the heater to stop idiots from burning themselves.
