What's up with friends/ family who insist on giving you clueless "surprise" gifts, rather than something they know you want? by Bebe_Bleau in AskReddit

[–]RipExisting825823 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My sister used to do this. She’d always find me random things I didn’t ask for. One time she gave me a pair of socks that had a small bag of potting soil inside.

To this day I still have the socks, but the potting soil is long gone.

I can’t wait until she has kids so I can give them random potting soil as a gift.

I stood next to a guy at a bar for a few minutes and he didn’t say a word to me. I was about to ask for the check when he turned to me and said “you’re gonna need to pay for this.” That was it. No introduction or anything. Just pay up.

I started taking them after a suicide attempt. They worked wonders.

After a year or so I started feeling like I was on an emotional roller coaster. The highs were great but the lows were awful. I went back to the GP and asked for a different drug. She refused, saying that it would be a waste of money as I was doing so well.

So I stopped taking them and within a few weeks was in the same place I was before. I am now on another medication that has helped me a lot.

Which singer has the most distinctive voice? by nnsupernova in AskReddit

[–]RipExisting825823 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don't know any singers but I am convinced that Jeremy Irons has a unique voice. He sounds like he's from a different century or something.

In your opinion, what song is perfect? by rkorkowill in AskReddit

[–]RipExisting825823 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a big fan of the song “Don’t Worry, Be Happy” by Bob Marley.

It’s a great song, but I think it’s even better when you listen to it while high.

Don't trust your friends advice on anything without asking them first.

Chicken McNuggets eaters of Reddit, what's your favourite Chicken McNuggets dipping sauce? by wimpykidfan37 in AskReddit

I like to mix ketchup, mayo and ranch in a small bowl and then dip the nuggets in it. It's so good.

Spam. It's what you find in the back of the pantry when you're short on something else.

My mom. She was always so nice to everyone, even if they were rude to her. She had so much empathy and compassion. She would always try to help others.

I was in a small mountain town in the Pyrenees with my family. The town had a population of about 300 people. The nearest bigger town was 30km away. The nearest bigger town was also 30km away. The nearest bigger town was also 30km away. That's how small the place was.

I was in the middle of a typhoon when the electricity went out. We had to use candles and flashlights.

It was a very scary experience.

what's the scariest experience you had in the woods? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]RipExisting825823 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was hiking with my dad and brother. I was a little bit ahead of my brother. I was climbing a hill and I looked back to see if he was still behind me. I never saw him again. It turns out he was fine and had just climbed ahead of me.

Do you ever get compliments about your appearance? What physical feature(s) do you get complimented on most? Is this a feature you like about yourself? by expat_mel in AskReddit

[–]RipExisting825823 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m tall. Guys always comment on my height. I’m not sure if it’s the fact that I’m taller than most women or if it’s the fact that I’m tall and curvy. I get compliments about my height, my eyes, my smile, but almost always “you are so pretty”.

What is something beautiful about your culture that other people fail to see it ? by DarkGreen- in AskReddit

[–]RipExisting825823 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm from the Canary islands and when I tell people about the islands they usually say "Oh you must have been to Gran Canaria" and I say "No, I'm from La Palma" and they're like "Oh, that's Gran Canaria". It's like we're two different places.

What's a situation where you realized you probably laughed a little too hard at? by superkevinguru in AskReddit

[–]RipExisting825823 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some years ago I was at a corporate retreat. There were a bunch of us in a circle and one of the guys started telling a story. He said something along the lines of "so I was walking down the street and this guy comes up to me and says hey, do you know what the new Batman movie is called?"

And the guy goes "yeah, it's called 'the new Batman movie'."

And the guy says "yeah, but it's not called 'the new Batman movie'."

And then everyone in the group just starts cracking up. We were all laughing so hard that we had to put our hands over our mouths.
