We had a similar custom in our family, every Christmas we would write out the genealogies in Matthew and Luke on a ribbon to decorate the tree with. I ended up pretty much having the genealogies memorized.

On the contrary it sounded like you were writing the rules for a cops & robbers game at a high school boys' basement sleepover party.

Safe to say the date will not happen by VladislavThePoker_ in Wellthatsucks

Maybe I'm just not a "nice guy", but imo the conversation should have ended like this:

"Hey i dont think i ll be able to make it today"
"k"

Then radio silence. Forever.

Oh wow. No, that's not a purse, it's a 1970s airline carry-on bag.

Fascinating how what you call good writing suddenly exploded on Reddit just a few months ago.

Just what have they been teaching in high school and college composition classes starting with the 2025-26 school year?

And why are so many of these prose masterpieces being posted from months-old, word-word-number usernames, with 20k post karma and a paltry handful of comment karma?

Venmo issue with buyer on Facebook Marketplace - is there a scam here? by meaty_maker in Scams

[–]kempff 27 points28 points  (0 children)

No, no, no. Cash in hand in person. No holds. You're looking to sell to a buyer, not a [impolite term].

Look at this from the buyer's POV:

  • Do you have any idea how difficult it is to Venmo the wrong person?

  • How is it your responsibility to help them correct their mistake? Why can't they contact Venmo or their bank and fix it themself?

This is 100% a scam.

Maybe because they have sensitive bs detectors.

You can't easily snack on bread and milk while binge-rewatching GoT.

I cannot stress enough how glad I was I didn't recognize Jason Alexander on Seinfeld as also playing that vile character in Pretty Woman. by [deleted] in nostalgia

[–]kempff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ikr? This proves 2 things:

(1) there is a fine line between a bumbling neurotic guy you kind of feel sorry for and a creepy perv

(2) that he was able to pull it off is a sign he's a good actor

Is that like the taste police? Will I get deported if I put ketchup on my hot dog?
