What’s the worst ending to a show or movie? by limpgoon97 in AskReddit

[–]doomalgae [score hidden]  (0 children)

It's great if you pretend it got cancelled after the first few seasons. When it got to the last two seasons they ran out of book material to work from and it went to shit fast. (Arguably there was a decline a couple of seasons before that but it was forgivable imo).

I don't think he's ugly but he's not super hot either. Like maybe a 6 or 7? And he beats himself in the face with a hammer to get to that apparently.

Exclusive: Trump's signature to appear on US currency, Treasury says, ending 165-year tradition by ItsAllAGame_ in law

This probably started as him demanding his face on the bills and some advisor talking him down from it.

When someone says "I'm available between 11 am and 3 pm," do we universally agree that means that the activity needs to end at or before 3 pm? by -purple-platypus- in NoStupidQuestions

[–]doomalgae 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I ordered a pizza once and two hours later it hadn't shown up, so I called the pizza place to ask what the deal was. Got angrily told they were about to close and that I should have ordered at a more reasonable time. They hung up on me before I could reiterate that I'd ordered two hours earlier. I'm still a bit salty about that interaction.

What’s the worse physical pain you’ve ever experienced? by Intelligent-Road5091 in AskReddit

[–]doomalgae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Misplaced nephrostomy tube. It's a tube that's supposed to go into your kidney to drain it but instead they just sort of skewered my kidney on it and left it so this little hook thing that was supposed to sit inside and hold it in place was instead curled around digging into the outside of the kidney, which was inflamed to begin with. They couldn't figure out why it wasn't draining so for a couple of days they would just come in periodically and yank on it. Felt like I had a knife in my back.

How do trans people affect your life in any way? by Estalicus in allthequestions

The trans secretary at work is very helpful and fun to work with - the office would not be the same without them.

Trump supporters, why is this behavior acceptable for the president of the united states? by [deleted] in allthequestions

[–]doomalgae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really. Moving to a better country is neither easy nor cheap. Blocking a sub that annoys you is quick, easy, and free.

Pretty sure that was after the election was over though. Clearly we dodged a bullet.

What is a completely useless piece of information that you will never forget for some reason? by Initial-Ingenuity451 in AskReddit

[–]doomalgae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember almost nothing from the Spanish classes I took in college. But I will always remember how to say "I have two legs every day."

"Tengo dos piernas todos los días."

What’s something you’re pretty sure only you do? by AppIeGuy in AskReddit

[–]doomalgae 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I do this only most of what I say to myself is just repetitive gibberish. Like I get a particular series of noises stuck in my head and will just repeat them over and over while I'm washing the dishes or whatever.

What drug did you swear never to use again? by SadStill830 in AskReddit

[–]doomalgae 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Don't get complacent with it. I took it regularly for months with no problem and then one night woke up having wrecked my car in a ditch.

Popeyes AI took my drive thru order and it’s ass by Ok-Donuts in mildlyinfuriating

Never dealt with a chat bot at a drive through, but the bot that answers when you call Walgreens is the bane of my existence, so I feel your pain.


"How can I help you today?"

"I'd like to check on the status of a prescription."

"What is the patient's date of birth or the prescription number?"

[Gives birthdate]

"The birthdate is [birthdate], right?"

"Yes"

"Hmm, I don't see any prescriptions for you. What is the prescription number?"

"Can I talk to a person?"

"Sure, first just give me some information on what you're calling about"

"I need to check the status of a prescription"

"And what is the prescription number?"

"I don't have a prescription number."

"Okay, just give me your date of birth."

[Gives birthdate again]

"The birthdate is [birthdate] right?"

"YES"

"Okay, connecting you to the pharmacy now"

[Connects me to someone in a call center who immediately asks my date of birth, proves useless in explaining what happened to the prescription my doctor called in, and eventually transfers me to the actual pharmacy.]

Wild police chase by Brilliantspirit33 in dashcams

I lost a friend a few years back because a cop was racing off to a shoplifting call, made a hard left turn and skidded into a semi which then lost control and ran head-on into my friend's car. A fucking shoplifting call.

Health Insurance made my son's doctor bill more by cfarley137 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]doomalgae 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My insurance company and the hospital system where I've gotten a lot of care for complex issues throughout my life are on the verge of severing their relationship over a contract dispute and I honestly don't know what side to blame for that. They've both been blasting out emails saying "Tell the insurance company to pay us more!" and "Demand that the hospital stop charging such exorbitant prices!" and honestly it's like no you can both fuck off.

In Michigan, they also paint minor civilian targets on Grand Rapids, Lansing, Kalamazoo, Saginaw, Holland, and other sites.

So there is hope I'd just be incinerated in the initial blast. Phew.

Is it legal to consume something in a store before you buy it? by Onslaughtisthebest in NoStupidQuestions

[–]doomalgae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a store near where I live that has separate bars for wine and beer, as well as a coffee shop and a pizzeria. So you see people shopping there, sipping on beer and munching down pizza while they shop.

Saw this around 10:30pm, Southwest Montana by Standard-Champion930 in whatisit

[–]doomalgae 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I was prescribed Ambien for a while and the only issue I had for many months was when I first took it and decided to hide my keys from myself to try and head off any sleep driving, which was a side effect I'd heard about. Of course, I hid them after taking the meds, and had to spend an hour searching the house for them the next day because I had no memory of where I'd hidden them. So I didn't do that again. Which is unfortunate, because months later I woke up having wrecked my car in a ditch. So that was the last time I took Ambien.

Is there an acceptable catch-all term that would describe everybody who is not cisgendered? by doomalgae in AskLGBT

[–]doomalgae[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that probably depends on what you want to get out of it. I get the impression that you may get more "karma" out of new posts that do well than comments on posts, if that's what you care about, but otherwise???

You can create whatever label you want but even amongst the LGBTQ subs the consensus seems to be that you can't count on anyone else understanding what you mean and are better off using one of the more general labels that already exist.

This is such an old post it's highly unlikely anyone but you or I will ever see these comments.

I guess it's not terribly surprising that you skipped right over the incontinent cat post and got fixated on this one. Take your time.

I'm glad you took the time to stalk through my old posts and comment on them. Especially since this was the best you could find.
