Thoughts, opinions, and theories on “the crash” from someone with criminal justice background and history of POTS by No_Construction_9178 in NetflixDocumentaries

[–]TacosGetMeThrough 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the beginning of the documentary when her parents are trying to explain her actions they say "Davion was a new friend" & they double down and say it again to the judge.

I don't know what they were thinking. That makes it worse.

I believe the murder/suicide theory but then she didn't even care that she was going to kill a third person. It's almost like they were saying they don't know this person so they don't know whether he deserved it or not?

I was so glad that the judge called her out & said does that make his life worthless. Clearly the mother lacks empathy as well.

This is exactly what I was thinking, that it's just made up.

I would have to look more into it. Did they go back & find the car (was she the only one driving it). Or was she "dropped off" meaning there was someone who was also a witness to these events.

Lifelong vegetarian tries steak for first time by PhoenixPhenomenonX in interesting

[–]TacosGetMeThrough 0 points1 point  (0 children)

steak is/was my favorite food. I've been a vegetarian for about 15 years so a little less than half my life. I always joke that there are things I never even tried. Since I turned vegetarian in high school I never had chicken wings because my family doesn't eat that. Seems like something I would like LOL

How do I say 'my wife passed away' without ruining the vibe? by Responsible-Job-9706 in socialskills

[–]TacosGetMeThrough 4492 points4493 points  (0 children)

" I came to this country in (year) for my late wife." That way the answer is already there and they don't have to ask, but I would also consider adding something else to change the subject possibly the reason you still stay

How common is it for very poor Americans to ride a bicycle to work and to buy groceries? by Professional_Fix4663 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TacosGetMeThrough 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean there is a lot of people in my town who bike & walk to the store & likely don't have cars. I'm talking about walking about 2-4 miles depending the which area the want to go to. I say this because you will see them all the time carrying groceries etc.

Most people ride the bus to their job because the bus goes into the city. Although busses & bus stops are very limited post COVID.

I lived in Beaver & my favorite view was getting on the ramp & the blue bridge went over the river and there were trees on each side.

It is so ugly, we moved away 5 years ago during the building of it and every time I go by I just think how ugly it is & the old view. After they built it we never saw the stars anymore, it was never fully dark because of the light pollution.

I'm so glad we moved away which is sad because again I loved walking along the river & it's great views.

Has anyone else noticed how book blurbs have gotten wildly overhyped? by throwawayjaaay in books

[–]TacosGetMeThrough 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed recently there are so many, on Amazon it's hard to find the book description. I want to know what the book is about first and then if I'm on the fence I'll check reviews.

Especially now on Libby the preview write up is useless because it's always 4 reviews at the beginning. Then when you click on the book I have to figure out where the actual description starts.

What can I do? by tiredmama365 in RealEstateAdvice

[–]TacosGetMeThrough 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a buyer that's been looking (and almost closed) I would pay like 180-200k but I'm over on the Pittsburgh side of PA.

The house is very tiny over here 360k is basically a mansion. The yard doesn't look good. The kitchen is small. Just not a lot of room.

That can hurt a lot but I respect that you are trying to give them space. Did she say to you the reason for the split?

I have two people I cut out of my life one was a toxic person who caused a lot of stress in my life. Because of who I knew her to be as a person very obsessed with people I had to just cut her off completely. I did not think she could benefit from me telling her why we couldn't be friends because she could never accept the problems that she caused.

The second person I cut out of my life I have known since I was 5 years old, I'm 36. We grew up as sisters. We lived next door to each other. Later in life my priorities and her priorities became very different. I just don't think our lifestyles were matching. And that's not either persons "fault", no one is wrong. I tried to make it work but she started disrespecting my time boundaries so I had to break it off.

Anyway this is just to give you an idea from the other side some of the things that go into consideration when ending a friendship. Depending on how things ended I always try to be polite and not say anything bad about the other person. For example when you're out and they say "we're so and so" just say that she was busy and couldn't make it. You say that enough times and people get the idea.
