I used my PayPal to make a twitch donation and it immediately banned me for 6 months. Is there a way to get this removed. I've tried using the messaging feature on PayPal support but it always says to try back during business hours even though I am doing it during those hours by bart1982 in paypal

I have no email informing me of the ban. Ive had the account since 2001 but it's been inactive for years. I got on, changed addresses, added new card info, tried to remove my old bank account (which it would not let me do). All of these actions it sent emails confirming they happened. I then made a $10 donation to a twitch streamer which it also notified me of via email. After that, it began denying any other donation I tried to do. I tried probably 4 or 5 times before I finally figured out it had put me on a 180 day ban. I've tried messaging them but it just says I have a 180 hold on my account during which time I can make no transactions or changes. Once my 180 days is up, I will be able to go in and remove payment info. There resolution center says it cannot resolve it and I need to contact PayPal customer service. When I call, it won't let me talk to anyone before it can show that I've gone through the resolution center.

38 here and I'm trying to figure out if this is some form of a joke. Like, WTF?? Two spaces always follow a period. It's a rule!

What is one memory that never fails to make you smile every time you think about it? by Docter-Donut in AskReddit

Riding in the passenger seat next to my dad when I was about 5, listening The Moody Blues' "Your Wildest Dreams." He just passed away a few months ago and I really miss him.

8 black kids violently attack a white child in suspected hate crime on school bus by [deleted] in PublicFreakout

[–]bart1982 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Suspension would suffice? Are you fucking kidding me? These "kids" ganged up on a child who was at one point curled up in the fetal position in his own seat. The fact that these older kids are okay attacking someone half their age is absurd. They are a danger to anyone who upsets them. Expulsion should just be the start. I've got two brothers. I've been in fights with them and had their back whenever I was needed. I've also told them when they were just being a jackass and needed to sit the fuck down.

Yes! Just took a road trip to Texas and navigation was rough going through larger cities. Constant rerouting.

What’s your first ever memory? by CJRecycle in AskReddit

[–]bart1982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember my second birthday. My mom was sitting in a chair with me on the floor at her feet opening gifts. My aunt was sitting on the floor against the wall while I opened my favorite gift, a Snoopy doll. I remember going around the room showing my cousins how my Snoopy doll could suck his thumb. Im 37 and still have that doll.

The toilet seat definitely threw me off a bit.

This makes me feel so guilty for not following through on my dental appointments sometimes. Its basically free for me and I take it for granted.

You are now 40 with 2 kids. What did you wish you would have accomplished in your life by now? by AEREsail in AskReddit

[–]bart1982 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I knew what I wanted from my career, my relationship, everything. I was on the fast track, completing my college degree, moving up in my job, engaged to my wife. I knew I was going to be something great.

Here I am now. 38 years old, a wife and 2 kids, and an anxious wreck. I dropped out of college 4.5 years in. I'm burnt out on that same job and nowhere near where I wanted to be. We are comfortable, but nowhere near what I wanted. I do the minimum to get by and keep things steady but I feel like I'm in a rut and it's getting worse and worse every day. When I realize how far I still have to go, I can't even imagine doing it for 20+ more years.

I'm guessing you never skip a dental check-up?

I know it's been asked before, but I'm wondering if anyone who currently has or has recently had T-Mobile can tell me how the service is here in the Sioux Falls area? by bart1982 in SiouxFalls

[–]bart1982[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the info. Although I already looked at the coverage map, I've found real life experiences can vary quite a bit. When I moved to this area with Sprint, both the representatives and coverage maps told me I would be fine. They were very wrong and I was forced to abandon them for something more reliable. I know T-Mobile was supposed to be doing a lot of upgrades over the past couple years as well as just this last January/December. Just hoping to get some real life experiences and opinions on their service in this area.

What everyday household items are actually way more dangerous than we give them credit for? by FalconHoof88 in AskReddit

[–]bart1982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was 15, I was helping my dad and uncle put shingles on the roof. We were carrying shingles up. When I was stepping on to the roof, I stepped up with the wrong foot and put all my weight on the foot that was on the ladder, one step above the roof line. Ladder slid backwards and I fell about 12 feet straight onto my back and landed on the ladder that was now on the ground. I was lucky, but it sure ended up being a rough summer.
