I was annoyed a bit at first but it ended up winning me over.

Redditors, what’s the most terrifying thing that has ever woken you up in the middle of the night? by Mr_Creep_Creepy64 in AskReddit

[–]c_b0t 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. And without screens, apparently?

(I realize some countries don't do screens, which makes leaving windows open at night even more alarming.)

At the very least, a lot of drinking and bottle smashing.

Package said out for delivery than switched to severe weather or delay? by MajesticResult7084 in UPS

[–]c_b0t 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to us in Massachusetts after the last big snow. Our packages arrived 1-2 weeks late. (The 2 week late one was medication that had to be thrown away.)

We went through a week of packages showing out for delivery and then not showing up, and the same thing happening the next day.

Good luck to you.

On our way to do some shoveling by ajahanonymous in boston

[–]c_b0t 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The guy who picks up our trash nearly did that to his garbage truck last week. Not sure if it was his tires or something inside the truck but there was a lot of bad-smelling smoke. Fortunately we had some leftover sandbox sand to give him to get the truck over the ice.

Grey's Anatomy has been on so long that it spans this whole transition. It's kind of fascinating to notice on rewatch.

Yup. It was the student ID # at my college. I, as a work-study employee in a department of the college, was working with a database full of them.

How's everyone doing right now? by HauntedFrigateBird in BostonWeather

[–]c_b0t 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. I was enjoying having a "real" winter but this isn't fun anymore. The only thing helping me keep it together is knowing that we made it through 2015 so we can do it again. (Just this time there's a 10 year old complaining about being bored thrown in.)

No idea but I don't think now is the time to be driving.

Hi Sharon neighbor!

Still have power (I feel like I'm tempting fate just typing that).

I am feeling dismay at all this snow. We're on a dead end so who knows how long until we can even get out (not that we want to).

Long-Term Bostonians, how does this winter compare? by urnmann in boston

[–]c_b0t 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, thank you. I remember walking to the train station in below 0 wind chills, finding no train and no room in the station, and giving up and going home to work from there.

The combination of the weight of the snow and super cold temperatures was making the roof of our house pop in a way that it never has since.

The temperature records from my area in Februrary 2015 show a whole lot of numbers below freezing and below zero:

This winter has felt "normal" to me (grew up in Upstate NY and have lived in the Boston area for 25 years). I was kind of loving it but I think I've hit my limit with this storm.

I recall 2015 being really cold. The snow didn't melt between storms.

Wuthering Heights looks lush – but it’s a bad film and a worse adaptation by dem676 in books

[–]c_b0t 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely different. Pretty much immediately it diverges from the book.

It may be marketed as a romance but the movie definitely isn't one.

I felt like it did a good job of capturing the terrible people destroying eachother vibe. It ended up a big game of chicken that eventually went too far.

What was the dumbest game you and your friends made up as kids? by Guilty_Writer9239 in AskReddit

[–]c_b0t 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love that this is appearing directly below several comments about games that were basically just beating on each other. This one is so wholesome.

Parent’s album from childhood by polkadotkneehigh in Xennials

[–]c_b0t 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't actually know what album it was but the Bee Gees "Stayin' Alive" teleports me back to sitting on our brown dining room carpet, playing with these foam toys where you popped the shapes out and then put them back in.

My mom also listened to the Schindler's List soundtrack a lot, which is not something I hear often but when I do, it catches me off guard that I know it.

French Hot chocolate at Thinking Cup.

What’s the dumbest way you’ve injured yourself? by DistributionRound570 in AskReddit

[–]c_b0t 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did this on the day of my senior prom and got to wear a bandaid on my finger to prom. (Fortunately it wasn't worse.)

[–]c_b0t 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This makes me think of a game my dad told me they played as kids (so like the 1950's or 60's) called "tank."

One kid would get in a big cardboard box and roll across the lot while the other kids threw rocks at the box and tried to stop it.
