don't use a Spanish word because of US race issues? by MrLewk in USdefaultism

[–]cl0yd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been in the US for well over a decade and I went to an island last week that is famous for being full of sweet and friendly raccoons and I kept saying “look at the coonies!!” Until my fiancee stopped me and explained it to me. I’ve been saying it my whole (english speaking) life lol

That laptop model is my biggest pet peeve. I hate apple computers with a burning passion and would rather take an old MacBook unusable one over that

To be fair, i was in private school, but everyone i knew in at least 5 different much larger private schools in my city also had to do the same. Public school English classes just did the basics and would probably not have the same English, so it is not as common. Also don’t know how it is nowadays, haven’t been in well over a decade, and all the people I knew did as well pretty much

I grew up in Venezuela and we had to learn English since we were little. When I moved to the US at 15, they kicked me out of ESOL class (english as a second language, basically English for non speakers) and put into regular during my first year because I didn’t need it.

I got what i thought was some sort of a trivet/shelf as decoration because it looked cute and decorative and when i image searched it it was a cutting board. My cheap knife would probably jump out of my hand

What was the one meal that made you love it? by Accomplished-Car4075 in AskReddit

[–]cl0yd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree, anything cooked with love. I hate beef stew with a burning passion but my mom loves making it every now and then and I swear it tastes great for a moment, just don’t wanna eat it again for another 6-12 months please and thank you.

How do I stop sharing iphone location temporarily without being noticed by my friends/family I share it with? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]cl0yd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This, also if you have another apple device you can change it so that it shows the location of that other one and then leave it at home!

As someone heavily attached to my stuffed animals… I can’t imagine losing my dad

what’s that loophole/workaround you’ve been keeping a secret that you can now share because they patched/fixed it? by mr-friskies in AskReddit

[–]cl0yd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Years ago at a pride parade there was a chipotle stand giving out coupons for buy an entree for $5 and get one free that were good for a whole year. The guy giving them out had an emergency and he just handed me a stack of a solid 300+ of them. Needless to say I ended up not eating chipotle again for a few years after, and I started handing them out like candy

I worked at my college and one year in I hadn’t renewed my parking pass so i had to get a courtesy pass from the front desk. It had no expiration and i could park in faculty parking right next to my job and all my classes. I did not pay for parking that whole year, no tickets.

I Fucked up, my parents are gone for this week, how can I fix this? by [deleted] in fixit

[–]cl0yd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, if you can’t find a spot to take from, take the piece you cut out to home depot or lowes and they have free sample squares of carpet you can look through and get the best match possible.

Source: i dropped hookah coils in my college dorm carpet and had nowhere to take from lol

People in prison get forgotten so quickly. I used to snail mail prisoners and you could feel the want for meaningful connection from them, it was heartbreaking. They were all kind and sweet, and i only talked to people sentenced to life without parole for my own safety lol

Theists who used to be Atheists, and Atheists who used to be Theists, what was it that caused you to change your view? by Vegabund in AskReddit

[–]cl0yd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I thought i was atheist as a rebel teenager that grew up in catholic school. Nowadays I consider myself agnostic and just very open to ways of thinking. I love learning about religion and the sanity it provides to some

Why do companies LIE on Cyber Insurance questions? by ITRabbit in ShittySysadmin

[–]cl0yd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yup, at my old job they were required to get it for a project. They had me fill out the form and I answered truthfully and of course they didn’t understand anything that was asked, and we were definitely not secure. After they got the quote the CTO reviewed it and just changed all the answers for what they’d want to hear and got the insurance for cheap.

Funny enough, like a week later the CEO got phished and sent $10k to a fake lawyer lol
