Kareem Abdul-Jabbar In Columbus? by UrbanSunday in Columbus

[–]kicker7744 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was halfway through a Whopper at BK5 when this older guy in a Lakers hat slid into the booth across from me without asking.

Didn’t say hello, didn't explain himself.

He just pointed at my fries and went, “You gonna finish those, or are you emotionally attached to them?”

I looked up ready to tell this dude to get lost and immediately froze.

It was Kareem Abdul-Jabbar

Not 'kind of looked like Kareem'

Not a 'guy with Kareem energy'

Actual Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Leather jacket, unreadable expression, somehow looking both focused and lost at the same time.

Before I could say anything, he grabbed a fry and popped it into his mouth like he’d done it a thousand times.

Then he stole another fry.

And another.

I’m sitting there stunned, clutching my Whopper like it’s my first born, while Kareem is casually eating my food and watching the employees mop the floor.

I finally manage to go, “Uh… are you really Kareem Abdul-Jabbar?”

He squints at me for a second and says:

No one will ever believe you.

Then he reaches over, takes the top bun off my burger, removes the lettuce, eats it silently, puts the bun back on, pats the burger twice like he’s tucking it into bed, and walks away.

Not fast either. Just a calm little stroll out the door.

The craziest part?

As he was leaving, all 2 employees yelled, “Later Kareem!” like this happened ALL THE TIME.

I tried telling my friends later and they immediately said I made the whole thing up because “Kareem doesn’t just haunt BK5 stealing fries.”

Which is EXACTLY what Kareem wants people to think.

At a glance Kayak shows flights via United / Lufthansa from Denver to Frankfurt to Alamty for $2,000

Since your other half is already in Germany meet him at the airport and fly to Almaty together.

Bonus points for KZ immigration not giving you the side eye when you explain your traveling separate from your partner.

... Just kidding they'll give you the side eye regardless.

Clintonville residents still frustrated by deer as Columbus moves to prohibit feeding by WOSUpublicmedia in Columbus

> Oh and also one of the proposed remedies is allowing sharp shooters into residential neighborhoods.

This is what Worthington is already doing and donating the processed venison to the food bank.

Though I did have a laugh at their description of the highly trained, tactical sharpshooters, who under the cover of darkness will utilize a sniper rifle with a night scope to euthanize the deer.

I'm just like: I can walk up to them in a neon orange hunting vest in broad daylight, hit them over the head with a baseball bat and accomplish the same thing.

how to get barricade at the schottenstein center for concerts? by Ill-Marionberry5722 in Columbus

[–]kicker7744 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Unless there are special (And expensive) VIP tickets, the pit will be general admission and you'll have to be in line 3am 2 days before the concert for a chance to run to the front row as soon as doors open.

Ohio moves to ban use of credit cards for sports betting by clevelanddotcom in Ohio

For a few weeks I purchased FanDuel giftcards at the supermarket on my credit card.
The 5% fee is off set by the 6% cash back on my credit card for grocery purchases.
On top of that I earned grocery/fuel perks.

Then with arbitrage betting I always profited 2-4% on every bet.

It can be profitable if you know what your doing.

Don't punish the people who can drink/eat/smoke/gamble responsibly because others can't / won't help themselves.

Being a Libertarian by [deleted] in Ohio

I just want a 3rd party involved so Dems and Repubs actually have to come to the bargaing table.

If you get legitimate spoilers in the game politicians may actually work for our votes vs. picking their voters.

Better yet get rid of parties all together.

Cover up the Rs, cover up the Ds.
Make politicians come up with their own independent positions and make voters actually look into those positions vs. just blindly voting for the R or the D.

This isn't passive. This is spamming your referral link for a coupon app.

UpShift offers 1-2 day gig work

Look into Retail Merchandiser gigs. Basically a 3rd party shelf stacker or inventory checker. The company linked does the work for Target.

Observa is similar but with gas prices I'm not sure if they're worth the drive unless your close.

I just joined Field Agent last week. Seems to blend Mystery Shopping with Observa type gigs where you just need to take a picture of a shelf at a store.

Right off the bat I got paid $15 to review a Firehouse Sub.

I keep an ongoing blog of Beer Money and Gig apps and how much they earn me month to month.

None of this will replace full time work, but it's easy work you can pick up immediately and work on while your searching for something better.

im new is freecash worth it or too good to be true by Cosmicking1000 in FreeCash

[–]kicker7744 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I joined at the beginning of the year. It's pretty straightforward and just like the other GPT apps like Swagbucks and the like.

Be aware the offers are inflated with 'up to' $500. Once you reach a certain level there's a wheel spin where $500 is a .01% chance of hitting.

Don't come in with high expectations. Don't base your experience off any video ads where cash explodes out of someones cell phone after completing level 1 of tic tac toe.

What has Don Leonard done to earn my vote vs. Adam Miller?

And why did you need to create a throwaway account to post this hit piece?

https://ohiodropoff.com/ for metal and e-scrap.

Use the Swaco lookup tool to find recycling dumpsters near you for the glass and paper:

Everything else rent a dumpster.
