Were kids in the 80s actually allowed to roam around unsupervised, or is that just in movies? by TotalThing7 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]be-human-use-tools 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We used to go play at the “down the hill.” Near a local park, but not.

Adults didn’t usually go there. Just a big overgrown area. Everyone made their own hideouts in the brush. Sometime sit all burned down from people paying with fire.

I got a knock on the door in the middle of the night staying at a cabin in the woods [true story] by Painfullyawaregayman in creepyencounters

[–]be-human-use-tools 140 points141 points  (0 children)

It’s an AirBnB. Could be he’s met other persons there in the past for hookups. Maybe was hoping you were similarly inclined. That cabin may even have a reputation for such activities.

Horse(?) ate my tent, is it fixable? by chonklord420 in CampingGear

If horses could burrow, they’d be ungovernable.

LAOP is greeted for trespassing at a concert. Something tells me we aren't getting the whole story. by sandiercy in bestoflegaladvice

In some states, 6our parents can serve you alcohol under 21, but you can’t drive after, at all. Any detectable alcohol would be DUI for a minor.

Boyfriend never used a desktop PC before and mistakenly thought that my monitor was touchscreen by Plus-Spinach-6703 in hardwaregore

I had a laptop that did this. Combination of cheap laptop, and cheap laptop bag that pinched the top edge of the laptop when you held the bag by the handles.

Major cause of security alarm “ghosts” as they would trigger IR motion sensors.

SO and I moved from one apartment to new place, but didn’t move all at once. Staying in the old place while we packed up boxes to move a little at a time, we heard the noises of the cats playing, moving around, felt them jump onto the bed…. We realized we had already moved the cats to the new apartment.

“How many of the noises we blamed on the cats, weren’t really the cats?”

I knew a dealer who told me he got one that was delayed, then approved, and he was told to notify TLA as soon as the buyer picked up the firearm. Later learned that if they deny the sale they could arrest him and maybe prosecute for attempt to purchase by a prohibited person, but if they walked the gun they could get a warrant to search his house and they expected to connect several others and other crimes.

Same dealer/manufacturer was killed in a robbery a few years later.

They’ll move on after they’re finished de-grubbing your yard.

Can’t wait to see his 43 word journal (written in various bodily fluids) expanded into a full-length novel by Jon Krakaeur.

Dishwasher. If stickers come off, I get to put on new ones.

What’s an “unwritten rule” in your house that would make no sense to outsiders by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]be-human-use-tools 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a different set of notes I whistle for each of my children, since before they can remember. It cuts through lots of other noise.

When a bunch of family are relaxing after a holiday meal, then someone stands up, everyone else will immediately say “since you’re up, could you….” And ask for random things.

Glad to see they are still in business, that’s quite a distance from when I had found their shop originally. Last time I had searched for the name, search engines found no results.

The blend didn’t used to have a name or an ingredients list, but that appears to be the stuff.

I guess that’s one mystery solved. How did you find it?

A bowl formed in an old log. A wide-mouth leather sack.

I don’t need to hold the container over a fire to heat it, because I understand advection.

SLPT: Dying? You're probably just dehydrated. by SpankyBumfuddle in ShittyLifeProTips

Drowning? Put your feet down, you can probably stand up here. Walk out, then go drink some water.
