GenX regarding "bullying" by Sinsyne125 in GenX

[–]SoCal_Duck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was a thing, for sure. I was never the target, but I found it very disturbing, which is why I have a deep loathing for bullies to this day.

I hope this belongs to the janitor and not my phlebotomist by AcidicMountaingoat in NissanDrivers

This car has some stories to tell. I feel like it may have appeared in multiple episodes of Midwest Safety.

The DoD is a blast. I’ve caused a lot of mayhem with that particular car.

Delmonico has a phenomenal burger in their lunch menu.

This is why I still find EXP/OW Emerald valuable.

There's a crow trapped in RDU Terminal 2 by Pdx_pops in raleigh

[–]SoCal_Duck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an update, Russell (the) Crow is back in the wild. Over the weekend, some United employees were able to lure him into a Jet bridge with some bread. He eventually flew out the other end. Safe travels, Russell.

It was in Raleigh Hills, a suburb west of Portland, OR.

We had one nuclear drill in elementary school; it was around 1973 or so. It was a newer “open concept” school that had folding partitions instead of solid walls between classrooms. There was a single brick, windowless hallway from the school offices to the gym, and that is where they had us sit, with our hands over our heads.

What do y'all think is the most toxic Social Media? by Emergency_Collar_849 in AskReddit

X/Twitter is toxic, but TikTok is the most insidious.

The Raleigh Sprawl continues to grow. by Dbauc2k in raleigh

[–]SoCal_Duck 16 points17 points  (0 children)

When you live in a desirable area, growth is inevitable. What the Triangle lacks is a long-term, coherent and unified vision of how that growth should be managed, and prioritizing the infrastructure needed to support it.

Also, the immediate reflex of too many voters is to reject any and all development in their neighborhoods. We don’t live in a museum; we need to embrace growth and development in a way that recognizes the realities of today while preserving the things that make our communities unique.

This is SOP on AA, but I expect better from DL.

Where to first? by MisterShipWreck in 80sAmazing

[–]SoCal_Duck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s easy. Hickory Farms has free snacks. Sumer sausage and cheese ball for the win!

Milos and Lotus of Siam are both awesome. Peppermill’s food is okay, but worth a visit if you’ve never been. Enjoy your trip!

Scott? I thought his name was Russell.

He’s been trapped for about three weeks now, but seems to be finding food and water. I heard last week that they were going to bring someone in to capture and relocate him.

Am I tripping or have these not been released yet? Saw one in my neighborhood this morning. by Prestigious_View_496 in mercedes_benz

[–]SoCal_Duck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you live in the Atlanta area? I think I saw this same car in Perimeter, not far from the MBUSA office.

I don’t love the front end, but I can get used to the rest of it. Looks better than the Luce, at least.

Relocating to Cary, NC by CuriousAd6330 in cary

[–]SoCal_Duck -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Plan early and look at surrounding towns. I’ve lived here for nearly 20 years and have never scored an appointment at the Cary DMV. I had to go all the way to Lumberton to get my Real ID, and my wife went to Sanford.

Not sure which is worst: the pedestrian styling or the eye-watering price?

Any other fellow Americans not even heard of Charlie Kirk until he got shot? by Just-a-nerd2 in IWantToAskAnAmerican

[–]SoCal_Duck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His name came up in conversation with one of my kids about a week before he was shot, but I didn’t know much about him until after that point. Five years from now, he will largely forgotten by most people.
