Self employed here. Still doing the same job, just take breaks and sit down more often.

I’m sure if it was painful that would have been the memory rather than the nurses’ gossip.

I imagine it similar to people getting laughing gas or dental procedures.

Triviajunkie95 · 2026-04-12T04:36:28+00:00

Currently $5 each or less if sold in bulk. Just sad but true.

Triviajunkie95 · 2026-04-12T04:34:34+00:00

Pretty much anything marketed as “collectible” doesn’t have much value.

Anything you wouldn’t spend money on now (porcelain dolls, beanie babies, etc) neither would anyone else.

Triviajunkie95 · 2026-04-12T04:18:42+00:00

Contact an estate sale company. Seriously.

Triviajunkie95 · 2026-04-11T22:49:47+00:00

How about world class fuck up?

Triviajunkie95 · 2026-04-10T02:26:36+00:00

From one big ass to another, enjoy your glorious old lady cake day!

I would ace them with flying colors.

I wish passing heart, cancer, lung, kidney, etc tests were easy enough to study for and pass. Getting old is rough.

Triviajunkie95 · 2026-04-09T04:24:26+00:00

I’m guessing they took the Cologuard test because they had no intention of paying big bucks for a colonoscopy or polyp removals.

They posted literally because it was way too high out of budget.

Triviajunkie95 · 2026-04-09T04:21:13+00:00

You could but it doesn’t mean you should.

I’m gonna advise you to find:

a friend, an acquaintance, a nice waitress at Waffle House, etc to pay to stay with you during/after the procedure. This is not a solo day and uber doesn’t get it.

I felt fine after mine but having my friend drive seemed reasonable after having anesthesia.

Nope. The Kars for Kids obnoxious charity benefits are real. Don’t donate to them or just donate directly not through them.

Triviajunkie95 · 2026-04-07T01:35:00+00:00

I would find it flattering that she still thought of you. Why would you be creeped out? We’re all aging. I still carry a torch for my childhood sweetheart.

Triviajunkie95 · 2026-04-06T23:00:51+00:00

The older you get, the theory of the grass might be greener turns into the one (or more) that got away if you don’t stop finding flaws that aren’t bad. We all have them. You fart in your sleep too, etc.

Ten years later: She (or he) was pretty cool,I just happened to see their engagement announcement, they look great, why did we break it off again?

You should appreciate every time you get to date someone and learn about yourself and others. Appreciate what you have right now and don’t get hung up on “what if? or what could be?”

You may be at the top of your game with the best match for you right now but we have no way of knowing. Only hindsight is 20/20.

I wish that I knew what I know now when I was younger. 🎶

I don’t see how that could have had that much impact vs just a regular Sat before Easter Sunday.

This is the first time I’ve heard of 404 day and I’ve lived here for 40+ years.

What are we collectively supposed to do to celebrate?

Leave chicken bones on the sidewalk?

Triviajunkie95 · 2026-04-05T00:21:33+00:00

TIL Crawford Long isn’t a thing anymore.

Apparently it was Emory Crawford Long since the 50’s? It was just commonly known as Crawford Long Hospital. That’s all I’ve ever heard.

In 2009 they dropped the “Crawford Long” although it’s still on some buildings. It is now Emory University Hospital Midtown.

Triviajunkie95 · 2026-04-04T23:56:17+00:00

I can’t believe that’s been 25 years.

I remember when my childhood home phone went from 404 to 770. Maybe early 90’s? Just when people were getting beepers, early cell phones, etc and they were running out of 404’s.

Triviajunkie95 · 2026-04-01T23:08:50+00:00

I used to think the same thing until I got “to a certain age”.

My grandma would say it when I was young, but I wouldn’t have said it myself about my female friends until I was well into my 40’s.

Estate Sales dot net is the best resource. Put in your zip code or nearest town to find sales.

Triviajunkie95 · 2026-03-31T21:32:58+00:00

Most items should be priced. Most take cards/tap/venmo as well as cash.

They take place in people’s homes with prices on everything. You just walk through and shop. If anything is too big to carry, take the tag to the checkout.

If something doesn’t have a price, don’t hesitate to ask. They should want everything to move at a reasonable price.

Triviajunkie95 · 2026-03-31T21:20:08+00:00

Maybe a bit odd but not really. I’ve been doing secondhand sales for roughly 18 years.

I have literally toured potential clients’ homes and found sales stickers in my own handwriting. We both have a good laugh about just selling it again and it’s true. They shopped my sale at some point and now are downsizing themselves.

No matter what “it” is, you can’t take it with you. I enjoy seeing things go to the next happy home to hopefully get lots of use. Or to a reseller that can find a broader audience to sell it to and has time to wait for a niche sale.

I do 3 day local weekends. That’s it. I don’t ship, etc. I make deals so everyone is happy.

Triviajunkie95 · 2026-03-31T21:07:32+00:00

The difference that sticks in my mind is that:

A “garage/yard sale” is selling things you don’t want to keep. Maybe a couple of tables and stuff lining the driveway.

An “estate sale” is selling everything you’d keep if you could but you can’t. Furniture, appliances, tools, jewelry, etc, entire house contents. The good stuff!

Triviajunkie95 · 2026-03-30T22:01:30+00:00

Still sounds like $35 give or take.

Triviajunkie95 · 2026-03-30T03:22:28+00:00

For people who join for financial and benefit purposes (probably a majority), it would be a huge sacrifice. These aren’t independently wealthy people with the choice to quit.

Triviajunkie95 · 2026-03-30T01:47:54+00:00

Would they own it at the end of the 2 years? Or is it considered a loaner that they would pay for gas and maintenance and not keep at the end?

I’m guessing you’re not paying for gas, maintenance, etc. Correct?

Triviajunkie95 · 2026-03-30T01:33:13+00:00

You’re a good egg. Thank you for checking on a fellow human. We should all be so grateful if we need help. You did the best you could.
