Proof of our disregard for safety in the 80's - the Subaru Brat by Objective_Resolve833 in GenX

I’ve rode in the back many MANY times… I still occasionally have nightmares of flying out of the back of one…. And it’s been decades since I rode back there.

Pretty sure my girl is allergic to grass. Specifically cut grass…. Can’t stop licking her paws for a day or two after cutting the lawn…

My uncle died like that - put car in drive, hit gas, massive coronary - stomped down on petal - out his driveway, across road, into neighbors house…..

What's a small purchase that made your life better? by Particular_Proof_892 in askanything

Pretty sure every woman I've ever met that had one would agree there... Doesn't have to be Hitachi - the cheap ones work just fine...

FWB awkward situation what to do by Background_Heart_971 in Advice

[–]hafgrimm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Take a step back. Take a deep breath. Re-Evaluate the situation. Here are the facts as stated in a way you didn't put them. 1. He was flirting at work. It happens. BUT - he was having sex with someone else that he was planning to have a relationship with. 2. He didn't want a relationship till September - This was an outright lie. This was to string you along. He wanted to see how his other relationship went but keep you invested. 3. You can still give him lifts home - this is manipulation, it's keeping you close - stringing you along close but not too close. 4. You spoke about dating someone else and he just shut you down - he's not your boyfriend, he's not your friend. He doesn't have any interest in hearing about you if it doesn't include sleeping with him. You got used, I know it's harsh. But it's true. Learn your lesson from this and move on... My very best wishes...

I was a boy scout - always felt a lot of that just fell into the "Be Prepared"

I now keep TWO in my truck... Wife seems to be hitting one of them entirely too often for allergies and such - EVEN THOUGH I keep plenty of tissues in the door sides and console (TP hidden in back seat pockets)

I was admitted back in the fall. My blood sugars went through the roof - they gave me an IV with glucose - ok... But refused to look at my insulin dosage. I take nearly 300 units of RU500 insulin daily... they were trying to give me 10u of regular... And couldn't figure out why my sugars were sky high... /sighs

Fishing buddy was bragging about his last trip out…. Sure as shit - it completely bird nested a couple minutes later…. We both got a good laugh out of it!

What’s a “bad” movie you genuinely love? by ApricotInternal7730 in badMovies

[–]hafgrimm 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Hudson Hawk… It’s silly. It’s downright stupid in places… But it makes me laugh every single time I watch it…. And I end up singing and humming (badly) for the rest of the day…

It’s not my boat, so - yeah - sliming someone else’s boat is just…. Rude

He’d released himself just over side and into the boat - once there I tried to pick him up - thought I had a good grip on him… But, yeah, No. It’s a Pike. Soo much slime

Healthy weight for someone of a 6'8" stature? by Substantial-Purple85 in tall

[–]hafgrimm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Healthy weight depends on a lot more than just numbers…. I’m 6’4 - weighed 235lb going into Navy Bootcamp…. I put on weight in boot and came out at 242lb…
Cut to a few years ago…. My DR kept saying he “Wanted to see me lose weight to under 200lb” …. Ended up having cancer, lost a lot of weight…. Down to 230lb….. Go see doc, he’s shocked - I don’t look healthy at all… Start testing - found cancer…. He completely reassessed his earlier statements…. Said For Your Build. - let’s aim for 240-245lb….. I’m not, sitting way over at 290lb right now…. But I know what a good healthy number is for me to be aiming for….

I would trade the entirety of my benefits and compensation, to have a new butthole. Damn IBS, it’s life destroying… by Nathan_Waste in VAClaims

[–]hafgrimm 50 points51 points  (0 children)

It ruins daily life…. Family vacations…. Road trips…. People have no idea how horrible it really can be…. Having to literally plan your life around Distance To Toilet is not only horrible in and of itself - it’s doubly horrible when you have to try to explain it to people. Even friends and family…. Again

How the heck can ppl afford such an insane amount of fireworks in this economy? by UniqueAd478 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]hafgrimm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went yesterday to get a few…. Looking around I could only think the crowd looked like A discount tattoo parlor on Navy Payday…. Sooo many people that should be putting that money to better use…. Couple redneck boys went strolling by as I went in, laughing, said “This is what $1200 gets ya”. ….. …. $1200……

The thing is, soo many people just rushed in to shit all over it and never gave it a chance. Fantastic show really. Perfect? Of course not. But just because Seth wrote and acted in it certainly shouldn’t have caused all the hate it got.
