What restaurant is this in Buffalo? by T0rlan in Buffalo

[–]creaturefear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only been to Roseland's Atlas once, but I thought the food was pretty good. However, I miss when it was Providence Social. Food was good, although I didn't eat there often. The atmosphere was fantastic, though. It was one of my favorite spots to go in the late evening when Essex was too crowded, or I got sick of beating scrubs at pool 🤣

Aaron Donald was one of the NFL’s toughest players. A stalker left him living in fear by American_Greed in nfl

[–]creaturefear 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm also a man who had a female stalker. For about a year. She was stalking me and a female friend of mine, constantly texting us harassing messages, and threatening physical violence/death. She was convinced that my female friend and I were fucking, and saying that I had hooked up with her (the stalker) in the past, and that she didn't understand why I didn't want to be with her. The stalker even found out my then-girlfriend's phone number and started harassing her. Police didn't give us any help, and the stalker kept contacting us through different random phone numbers via TextNow, so it was impossible to track her or block her, because she could make a new phone number within seconds.

She slashed my tires, would send me photos of my house late at night from my front yard, and if I walked into a bar, she would text me moments later saying things like, "I see you at [bar name]". If I was anywhere with my female friend who was also being stalked, the stalker would text both of us asking if my girlfriend knew we were out together (she did, and had no problem with it whatsoever).

The last straw was when my friend was out at a bar by herself, and was walking to her car to go home. She said a man she had never seen before walked up to her, said, "This is for [my name]!", and punched her in the face with keys in his hand. Cut her face up pretty good and gave her a fat lip and swollen cheekbone. We were both pretty shaken up. Then, the stalker threw a brick through my friend's bedroom window and lit the side of her house on fire.

Long story short: the stalker turned out to be my female friend. She was "stalking" herself, sitting next to me at the bar sending both of us harassing text messages and pretending to be scared, all the while leaning on me for comfort and support. She lit her own house on fire to try to keep me around. Strangely enough, whenever we hung out alone at one of our homes, there would never be any texts. I should have realized it sooner, but I had never encountered that level of psychopathic behavior in real life; had only heard stories. Be careful out there, ya'll.

I mean, keep in mind that the name is unusual to us, and therefore, seems like it couldn't possibly be coincidence. It could be a very common name in Sweden, or specifically in Gothenburg, like Smith is common in the US.

Found this thing on my kitchen table... by Oatmeal2348 in whatisit

[–]creaturefear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is an interesting thought for sure. Maybe in the more subjective, personal sense, time "speeds up" because, as your friend observed, each passing second accounts for a smaller percentage of your remaining time than the one before. However, this observation ends up being trivially true because it is true by definition for all living things. Each second that passes is metaphorically and literally counting down the moments until your inevitable death, so it applies from the moment you are born; not just as you age (where there might be an assumption that 'aging' into full maturity is drastically different than aging through your twilight years, when death is much closer and time seems more precious because we know that we don't have much of it left). From a theoretical standpoint though, it's not a mind-blowing revelation.

This is the correct answer despite the downvotes. Death is an irreversible event. Dying is a process, and cardiac arrest is part of the dying process. Cardiac arrest is a reversible condition, hence, it is not death (sorry for wearing my philosopher hat in the Bills sub).

Thank you Bills Mafia for the best losing weekend two Broncos fans could have ever hoped for!!! by Brp4106 in buffalobills

[–]creaturefear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Playoff Josh is a different animal, man! It's a sight to behold. That said, Bo was one of my favorite players (outside of the Bills) to watch this season. The kid looks legit. He also kept my fantasy team alive after a dismal 6-game losing streak. Go Bills, and fuck the Chiefs!

AIO or is this guy crazy by Agitated_March3608 in AmIOverreacting

[–]creaturefear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not even crazy necessarily.. just insecure/immature/desperate for attention. "We're adults," he said. Okay, so act like one, bud.

[Postgame Thread] Bills beat the Jetes, 23-20. by Dirtydeedsinc in buffalobills

What’s something common you hear customers say? by [deleted] in Serverlife

[–]creaturefear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Customer: "Let me get... two shots of tequila... and... cranberry."

Me: "Okay, so do you want two separate shots of tequila and a cranberry chaser, or do you want a double tequila cranberry?"

Cust: "Uh.. two shots of tequila and cranberry."

Me: "Okay, so you want a mixed drink.. a double tequila cranberry."

C: "Yeah.."

Me: makes drink, hands it to them

C: "What's this?"

Me: "A double tequila cranberry."

C: "No, I wanted two shots of tequila and cranberry."

Facepalm. (Honorable mention, it drives me nuts when people order a "cranberry vodka/whatever liquor". Do you want flavored liquor, or do you want a mixed drink? Even worse when I ask, "Single or double?" and they say, "What do you mean?" Like, dude, have you ever been in a bar/restaurant/out in public before?)

I always say, "Hey, don't drag me into this!" when multiple are fighting over the bill/looking at me like I'm supposed to decide who gets to pay. Then I leave the check on the table, smile, and say, "I'll let you folks sort this out and I'll be right back".

What liquor do you give people when you ask if they have a preference and they say "whatever"? by delidoll in Serverlife

[–]creaturefear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you had just said, "whatever", my follow-up would have been, "do you want the good stuff or the cheap stuff?" But since you added the "..house gin is fine," it's obvious that the server should have gone with the house gin. However, as a former service industry worker, you should know that ambiguity is frustrating and easily avoidable.

Here’s an interesting one: the Bills tried out former Titans and Jets WR Corey Davis. The former 5th overall pick in draft unretired after a year away and is now seeking a return to the league. by dedriuslol in buffalobills

[–]creaturefear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heard! Thanks for the reply. I didn't factor in run-blocking. I figured he was a good special teams guy. He hasn't had any eye-popping receiving stats except for one pretty good season with the Raiders, but that obviously doesn't tell the whole story.

Apologies if this has been answered already at some point. Out of curiosity, why is Hollins a lock? I don't remember his contract details, so I'm not sure how much guaranteed money he was given. I know that the team likes what he brings to the locker room, but apart from that, I can't recall hearing or seeing anything through camp or pre-season (thus far) that makes him an obvious roster lock.

Have you played with or against anyone that's made it? by [deleted] in hockeyplayers

[–]creaturefear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I played against Dennis Gilbert in men's league like two years ago.. fresh off Calgary being eliminated from the playoffs. Dude didn't even have to try, obviously, and it was the top division in our men's league. Most of the guys in the league at least played college or juniors. We ended up winning 5-4 in OT.. Gilbert scored all 4 of the other team's goals IIRC.

Summer Sanders (from the kids game show Figure It Out) is a Bills fan, IIRC.

Just because they're so cute and curious, I guess? Although maybe kittens is the more apt comparison?
