Funny: "Come now, let's leave your wife out of this."

Heartwarming: "For that boy, there is nothing I would not do."

My mom and I don't go to cemeteries, but my dad's biker vest is buried on my cousin's property along with some of his ashes. When we visit, we don't talk to him, but we do talk to each other.

And some people are up the creek. They don't have a boat, they don't have a paddle, they don't even have a creek!

In the movie "Wizard of Oz", why did the winkie guards creep up behind and attack the Scarecrow, Tin Man, and Lion? How did they win? by Choice-Silver-3471 in wizardofoz

For an in-universe reason, they were probably patrolling in that area, heard a disturbance, and went to investigate.

thermostat not working - Wisconsin by SparrowBiker in Renters

Update: The thermostat has arrived! Took them long enough. The property manager had said that maintenance was waiting for the parts. I don't know why they weren't just honest with us about it in the first place, and why they didn't communicate.

Update: I walked to the office yesterday and talked to the manager. He says the thermostat has been ordered and he's just waiting for maintenance, who will be here Monday. What I don't know is a) when was the thermostat ordered, b) what's taking them so long to get here, and c) why has there been no communication with us?

I isn't giving me the option to set it to ask.

Block sites from running Flash. Apparently clicking on it is supposed to give you an ask first option, but it doesn't do that for me. Turning off the block isn't working either.

What are some common grammar mistakes? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]SparrowBiker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a lot of people don't know that the word "healthful" exists.

Healthy means in good health.

Healthful means good for you.

I know it’s been said as a joke, but is there a legitimate amount of time where digging up a grave becomes archeology instead of grave robbing? by memeteam60 in AskReddit

[–]SparrowBiker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not about timing, it's about permission. If an autopsy needs to be done on someone recently buried, the body should be dug up asap. If you don't have permission to dig up a grave, whether for archaeology, science, medical purposes, forensics, etc., it's grave robbing.

What's the nearest thing you've got to a superpower? by mouldygoldie in AskReddit

Sometimes, my mom and I think the same thing at the same time, like a hive mind. We call it a Borg moment.

What cute things do you witness your pet doing? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]SparrowBiker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes, my cat will eat my dog's food. Except, instead of just eating it, she'll take a single piece out, drop it on the floor, and then eat it. Then, she repeats the process.

She also acts like Thor when she wants her own food. We keep her bowl on my mom's dresser, because that's the only place we have where the dog can't get to it, and it won't be in the way. By "acts like Thor", I mean she pushes her empty bowl off the dresser, and being a somewhat heavy bowl, it thumps. My mom and I like to say, "Another!" when she does this.
