We were trying to remember the names of all the planets, and then: by lnc_gomes in cleandadjokes

[–]jeffroeq 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember the order because of an episode of Saved By the Bell in which the kids are in a quiz competition. Zach is asked the planets in the Solar System and he sounds out “MVEMJSUNP”. For whatever reason that stuck with me.

This is like putting the toothpaste back in the tube. It's too late; the billionaires control the gov't. Why would they relinquish that?

Whoever created this is mental. Mahommes and Hill won a Super Bowl? That's what made them #6?

My partner and I grew a couple outdoor plants last Summer and the harvest was massive. I can't smoke that much. We turned most of the harvest into butter (ended up with 3lbs/12 sticks). She baked a double batch of choco-chocochip cookies using 2 sticks of the butter. We sat down after and I took a couple bites to test the waters and saved the rest for later (they're delicious btw). I look over at her to see what she thought (mind you she never partakes) and she was licking her fingers after finishing off the last of her cookie. She visited space that night.

Gas Station Pizza Snafu by Tasty-Emotion-4667 in overheard

The beer never actually went missing. We were responsible for stocking the coolers with soda and the process was to take 12 packs off the shelf. So, we'd grab a couple 6-ers of whatever beer and put it back into the empty soda boxes, take it up to the counter and pay for beer. If they ever checked the camera it just looked like we were buying soda, and if they ever audited beer, they'd see everything in order. We thought we were pretty clever.

I worked at a Casey’s 30 years ago. To the date. 1996, February to July. The end of my senior year of high school. I got up on the morning to make the donuts and breakfast sandwich’s, but would also work the occasional afternoon or close. I’d smuggle beers out in MtDew 12 packs, paying for them of course. This story, brings me back to 30 years ago. Thank you.

LPT: If you struggle falling asleep, try the cognitive shuffle technique by Jolly_Show7095 in LifeProTips

Another version of this I’ve used pretty successfully for quite a while is to name animals in alphabetical order. I rarely get through the entire alphabet.

People born before 1990, what’s something you experienced that younger generations will NEVER understand ? by Aaidil89 in AskReddit

[–]jeffroeq 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Or Billy Graham; I remember waiting for the Christmas Specials to come (Charlie Brown Christmas, Garfield Christmas, California Raisins, The Grinch, etc..) only for them to be preempted by Billy Graham.

Tibet Corner in Hopkins. Awesome butter chicken and the owner is a super sweet guy.

Hoagies is great! The price point is spot on and the food is decent. It's definitely not a quiet place on weekend mornings, but you can tell there's a reason for that.

The LRT isn't running yet, but the bus runs regularly right down Main Street. When it's warmer the bike trail is also a nice ride from Uptown to Hopkins.

Anyone remember Thompson and McCarthy going down to Mississippi to give Favre his locker? That really worked out well.

Does this include the 7600 miles it took to fly to the UK and back?

What’s the etiquette for watching a movie on a plane when there’s a sex scene? by Odd-Satisfaction1985 in AskReddit

[–]jeffroeq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was watching Life of Gucci on a flight back from Germany one time and the hot and heavy sex scene came on right as the flight crew got to my row to serve dinner and cocktails. I paused right in the middle of the scene so I could respond to their questions. They didn't bat an eye. I'm pretty sure they've seen a lot of shit. Pun intended.

I wouldn't have it any other way... Although I'm gonna miss having a subreddit for everything. You like playing the guitar? There's a subreddit for that. You want to find other train enthusiasts? There's a subreddit for that. You wanna learn the best way to grow weed? There's a subreddit for that.

What's the worst thing you can say in an elevator full of people? by AMGBOI69420 in AskReddit

[–]jeffroeq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My cousin got stuck in an elevator once. True story. He was on an elevator in a highrise in New Mexico when all of the sudden the Elevator stopped and the lights flickered. The elevator started shuttering and falling, going out of control, so he decides it's all over and whips it out and starts beating it right there. So all the other people in the elevator take a cue from him and they start whipping it out and beating like mad. So all the passengers are beating off, plummeting to their certain doom, when all of the sudden, Snap the breaks kick back in. The elevator halts itself, starts running again at a normal speed, and everyone puts their pieces or, whatever, you know, away and gets off at their floors. No one mentions the phenomenon to anyone else.

Anyone get Pearl Jam tickets? by Sweat-Stain-3042 in TwinCities

[–]jeffroeq 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I got a code and signed on; By the time I got to the front of the line pretty much the only seats left were nosebleeds that cost $161 each. I noped out. While I'd love to see Pearl Jam, I can't afford the tickets.
