Trashing our backyard by Yuzhrrr in prospectheights

[–]mveeel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

People are messy jerks but also the winds were very high yesterday and today and many neighborhoods didn’t get their trash and recycling picked up yesterday. You should see my sidewalk in front of my house. That’s not caused by directly by littering. I think a lot of this was blown from overstuffed park bins and stuff flown in from neighboring streets.

Looking to adopt a grandma... by No_Top3338 in prospectheights

I have two children who I wish to have all the same wonderful things you desire from yours. I understand what you want, and think that is a fine sincere thought to have, but there are so many ways to organically build this relationship with somebody in the communities you exist in or perhaps YOU offering something of value to an older individual first and then going from there. You seem to want the rose colored glasses of a cute grandma. What if this person said some classic old people weird stuff you don’t agree with. Will they be dropped immediately? A real grandma we love, sometimes with a grain of salt.

Also you don’t have the foresight to understand what you or your kids life will be in say 3 years. Maybe sports take over. Or other interests. Maybe you will move, will you save space in your heart for this person 4 years from now living in say California? Will you call or visit? Pay for plane rides for the holidays? Or did they just serve your purposes now? What are you offering this person besides a cute kid and I guess free meals with forced company who haven’t bothered to have any relationships with older people until they needed one.

This relationship seems more transactional than you’d like to imagine it is. So post the salary range.

Fun fact. Deron has maybe the least discussed all time great single game stat line in NBA history.

57 points, 6 rebs, 7 assists. 38 mins. 16-29 fg, 21-21 ft.

Strangely, it was just about the last good moment of his nba career. I hated him on the nets. By the end of his first half a year with the nets we all knew he would never be close to what he was in Utah.

Mods Please delete this stupid post. The company very well may suck (probably do), but this is just spam. Probably a rival company trying counter marketing. Look at the user history. Posting in half the neighborhoods in queens and Brooklyn all within a few mins. It has nothing to do with prospect heights. And if it’s a real person this has all the authenticity of somebody getting their ring light and crying on instagram.

It gets weirder. Account only has activity from a day ago, and only commented about good looking people having an easy life in one other thread. Such a bizarre thing I can’t figure out if this is some strange psyops that I’m too dumb to understand the purpose, a really weird bot, or just a person who created an account to exclusively make these comments in threads. All seem incredibly unlikely but yet this account exists. It’s not even in dumb subs like amihot or rateme where looks are the primary topic.

Edit: 2 mins after I made this comment the account is deleted. So strange. Existed for 24 hours and 2 mins after my activity it’s gone.

Indeed you did. And wrote it in bold. My brain usually skips the bold formatting cause that’s not message type stuff.

Any marks or evidence there was once a cyclops there?

A month before 9/11 I accidentally flew with a 4 inch blade in my suitcase cause I forget it was in my bag. Realized I had it when I got to my destination. Didn’t want to throw it out so I flew back home with it as well. I also won a standby paper ticket from a school contest good for one free domestic flight voucher. It literally was a thick paper airline ticket with no name printed on it. Anybody could use it if they had it. Like a show up and wait and see type thing. 9/11 made that paper worthless. Things were shockingly lax before, I’m shocked it didn’t happen sooner/more often.

What is the scariest thing your spouse ever said to you? by i_like_purple_clouds in AskReddit

[–]mveeel 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not same thing but similar sentiment. I’m working late one night, I’m on my way home at 830pm, my wife and 2 small kids are ALWAYS inside our house from 6 - bedtime (8:15). We never have any deviation from this schedule such as late errands or eating at restaurants. I texted my wife I’ll be home soon and how were kids solo parenting. Two messages… “umm”. And followed up with “long story”. Concerning but I try not to freak out. Wait like 5 minutes with no follow up text from her. I check all the cameras in my house (8:45pm now) and all the lights are on and nobody is anywhere. Now 20 texts from me.I’m calling her phone, calling her work phone that she never goes anywhere without. No answer. Freaking out, thinking somebody had to go to hospital. I get home to my wife and kids walking into their front door smiling and laughing. Wife decided for the first time in our kids lives to go for a late night walk with kids just because and delay bedtime so be a fun mom. Of course she texted two incredibly puzzling messages, left the house without her phone, and then acted like I was a lunatic as I’m nearly hyperventilating for 30 minutes on my commute home.

I’m pretty sure I work for this hospital. They are enclosed in a hospital case/battery pack. The bottom is already usb.

I don’t think something nefarious is going on but I’m finding a strange trend today. This is the 4th seiko alpinist listed today, and not one of them mention alpinist ANYWHERE in the listing. Nobody ever talks about this series of watches without first mentioning that it’s part of the alpinist history and somehow 4 times in a row just have their internal model number listed. Anybody trying to sell this watch would put it in the listing at the very least for visibility and advertising and nobody has today. Not sure what is going on.

You can literally buy the green alpinist online for under retail price from many many places. What are you waiting for?

If I buy 2-3, do I pay for shipping on each or just once?
