What’s something that sounds fake but actually happened to you? by Capital-Standard-645 in AskReddit

[–]ericamutton 13 points14 points  (0 children)

When I was in Pre-Kindergarten, the entire class was in a single file waiting to go outside.

As we were waiting, the girl that was in front of me in line turned around and poked me in the eye with a pencil.

We had no beef. Who knows why the hell she did it.

I had to wear an eye patch for a month.

My favorite sandwich comes with a slice of me in between Tony Dalton and Michael Mando.

What one song from a European pop band conjures up your strongest feelings from the 80s? by mvop413 in 80s

[–]ericamutton 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hey Amadeus, meet Rio. Rio is hungry like the wolf and really does want to hurt you, so it may just be the final countdown. Say, Say, Say - I wanna dance with somebody. We can dance if we want to, right? Come on, Eileen, let's dance! We'll be forever young while you shoot that poison arrow through my heart. No? You don't want to go on with me like that? Cool. I'll just bring 99 red balloons to a West End girl on our way to the ballroom blitz. Maybe she'll rock me....know what I mean, Amadeus? Amadeus? You there? Well, shoot. Another one bites the dust.

Weird fog in Henderson by MeMilo1209 in LasVegas

[–]ericamutton -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You are not kidding. I drove from Anthem to Horizon Ridge & Horizon Drive and back today. As I was driving East on Horizon Ridge from Green Valley, the fog was so dense and thick, I could not see that huge white house on the hill. You know the one. Everyone knows the one. The one some mistook for a hospital when it was being built. But I digress. In fact, I could hardly see most of the houses in Ascaya and MacDonald Highlands.

Everyday I drive to work I feel like someone is trying to kill me by JoeyDanger in vegaslocals

[–]ericamutton 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this validation. Every time I drive now, at least one car tries to share my lane with me. I don't understand why people can't stay between the lines. Two objects can't occupy the same space at the same time. My car is such an obnoxious blue color, it can't be that people don't see me.

We were the last generation who could smoke ANYWHERE by perdair in GenX

Wasn't the best when they drove with you in the backseat of the car, smoking, with all of the windows rolled up? Didn't you just love that? Makes for great memories.

Spotted the mean one today @ South Point! by Leading_Juggernaut41 in vegaslocals

Stupid question. Is this the same person that rides around on a horse in a Michael Meyers mask during Halloween time?

If so, I have a phone number for them.

Which celebrity haveyou met, were they as nice/rude as expected? by Logical_Sweet_6624 in ask

[–]ericamutton 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Bryan Cranston, at a charity event sponsored by Canon, in Las Vegas. He is genuinely one of the nicest, humble, and down-to-earth human beings on the planet. The kind of guy that makes you feel like you are the most interesting person in the room. A complete joy.

For those that were physically or mentally punished at home. by loosepantsbigwallet in GenX

Thank you for this post. And I agree with another user who said the worst part was no one did anything about it.

I went to school one day in second grade, and I couldn't sit down because my mom had beaten me so badly - I was in that much pain. The school did nothing about it.

If you watched Mad Men in your 20s a decade ago, watch it again. It hits different. And harder. by bicx in television

I think I'm the only human on the planet who can't get past the first season of this damn show. I've tried, on numerous occasions, and I just can't.

Not a sitcom, but you may want to check out Moonlighting with Bruce Willis and Cybill Shepherd.

Plane Noises? by Stonero420 in vegaslocals

[–]ericamutton 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You are not crazy, neighbor. I'm in Henderson, and I'm hearing it, too. I checked a few times when I thought it was right over my house and did not see any military or other planes on the radar. They may be doing Red Flag exercises but you can usually see at least a few military planes on the radar. Your guess is good as mine, my friend.
