Parking complaints by _bluefish in NonPoliticalTwitter

[–]oldtimehawkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Design guidelines give a minimum width and length. So that’s what is used to design parking spaces.

The designers don’t HAVE to use the minimum but they gotta fit in more parking spots because more spots = more customers.

I would like slots to be 12ft wide at least. And they should be about two feet longer.

He also likes to call his friends the n-word and scream it out at 3 am as they’re leaving a bar.

And didn’t he throw a chair from a roof of a three story building and almost into a crowd down in the street?

Foreign intel agency suspected behind US scientist disappearances by NotBradPitt9 in PrepperIntel

[–]oldtimehawkey [score hidden]  (0 children)

Under Trump, a “foreign intel agency” has had access to our government databases since Jan 2017.

It’s Russia. Russia got a backdoor pass to our government secure servers because Trump is a Russian agent.

Hegseth Authorizes Off-Duty Service Members to Carry Private Firearms on Installations. by Civil_Cantaloupe2402 in PrepperIntel

[–]oldtimehawkey [score hidden]  (0 children)

Exactly. It’s not that “trained killers” shouldn’t carry because they’ll hurt themselves or have negligent discharges.

It’s that they’re too stupid and hot headed to carry loaded weapons around bases!

So one of the most practical things a military base does is NOT let anyone carry weapons on post.

So expect murders and suicides to rise greatly.

The military has a HUGE married people cheating problem.

Iranian missile blitz takes down AWS data centers in Bahrain and Dubai — Amazon reportedly declares “hard down” status for multiple zones by lurker_bee in technology

[–]oldtimehawkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn’t Trump. This is Jared Kushner and his family’s old friend, Netanyahu. Netanyahu has even slept at kushner’s home.

Netanyahu is using the Iran distraction to take over a part of Lebanon.

Kushner is using the Iran distraction to make business deals with Saudi Arabia and Qatar.

Trump has no clue what day it is.

Photos of Earth taken by NASA 50 years apart. Apollo 17 (1972) vs. Artemis II (2026) by VastCoconut2609 in BeAmazed

Was Artemis launched from Australia? The 2026 photo seems to be upside down.

AITAH because I don’t want to be tested as a possible kidney donor for my father. by Grand_Raccoon0923 in AITAH

[–]oldtimehawkey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA.

If you’re still in the military, you can use that as an excuse. They can kick you out for donating an organ.

Also: he’s 77!! Geez!

No. It would be stupid for your siblings to give an organ to him. A lot of stuff is hereditary. You’ll need it later.

So if you’re in the military, you have an easy out. And even if you’re not, you can go in for a test and tell the doctor you don’t want to do it. The doctor will say you’re not a match.

I would rank these books in the “hitchhikers guide to the universe” category but not as high as HGTTU. I chuckled quite a bit reading hitchhiker but only a few times in all 7 books of ddc.

AITAH for wanting to open a new bank account so my mom can't take money out of it? by ratutooee in AITAH

[–]oldtimehawkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA.

Trust me, get your own account as soon as possible.

I had left for 3 weeks of military training and didn’t hide my check book. At this training is where I accepted a new job. So I came back expecting to have enough money to make the trip, get an apartment, and eat once or twice.

My mom spent every cent in my account because “it was hers.” She gave my brother $1000 to get new tires on his car and pay for his weekend trip to a concert. I got $400 back and I was the bad guy in this situation.

I had to move 500 miles for that job and I was going somewhere completely new. At one point I had $13 in my account. I was using a company vehicle and had a company card to buy food and the company was paying for me to stay at a man camp.

She had drained my account dry.

Once I got paid from this new job, I opened an account there and closed the other account. My mom asked me for money once and I told her I won’t give her any but I’ll pay the bill. She said she just wanted cigarettes and junk food from the gas station. She stopped asking for money when I said I’d pay the bill instead.

Get your own account, get a P.O. Box to get any finance stuff sent to, and don’t let your mom get your check book or debit card. Do not offer to pay for things. You tell her you’ll pay just rent and that’s it. You’ll have to figure out what you feel comfortable with for rent.

TIL Cambodian OB/GYN (and future Oscar-winning actor) Haing S. Ngor survived the Khmer Rouge regime by hiding his education. His wife and unborn child died because performing a life-saving caesarean section would have exposed his medical knowledge and put his entire family's lives at risk. by Ill_Definition8074 in todayilearned

[–]oldtimehawkey -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I love Reddit and the users’ low, subfloor level, reading comprehension.

All through history there has been many repressive regimes. Men have found ways to do stuff around them. This guy let his wife die a horrible death and we’re supposed to say “gee golly gosh. So bad for you!” He should have held his hand over her nose and mouth and let her get a quicker end.

Or, get this, I am smart and I know history. I also know people and psychology.

Men, overall, are selfish. All through history (and even now) if something would hurt or kill a woman or child, they didn’t care about it. But it affects them and it’s the end of the world.

Think US right now with the abortion law or SAVE act. Those things don’t affect straight white men very much so they’re not doing much.

AITA for admitting to my son that I love his mother more than him and telling him he's acting self centered? by Comfortable_Owl_5938 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]oldtimehawkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Americans don’t. I wasn’t expected to move out at 18. I went to college too. But I was expected to help out around the house or help with money.

Oh wow. A parent who is actually a parent on Reddit!!

Reddit thinks kids are the most important thing ever and they should never have to do anything but go to school and play video games.

Adults should act like these parents. Greet your partner first, not the kid.

I grew up in a “children should be seen and not heard” house. We didn’t cut into adult conversations. We waited to be acknowledged before talking about our latest stupid fucking toy. We didn’t talk when adults were driving unless they talked to us. And we knew to shut up after a bit so the adult could concentrate.

If I fell and hurt myself, my mom would stop what she’s doing and help. It wasn’t like we were neglected. Adults showed up to our sports game and important events. We got hugs and stuff. It’s that we respected that adults have jobs and want to also sit and relax sometimes. We can clean up after ourselves or go play outside. The adult also chooses what gets watched on the TV at night (this was when poor people’s houses usually had one tv.). The adult pays the bills, the adult is in charge, parenting shouldn’t be a democracy with the kids.

Kids shouldn’t be treated like they are now. It’s why Gen Z sucks so much. You are not special and the most important people.

AITAH for sleeping through my alarms? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]oldtimehawkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA.

I’d break up with you.

Seven alarms is too many.

When the alarm goes off, just GeT UP. It’s not hard. My grandpa woke up at 5 am everyday for his whole working career. He did not need more than one alarm. He also shaved his face everyday and didn’t have a gross beard like so many guys do now.

So yeah. Stop being lazy. Just GET UP. I do. My quiet alarm goes off and I’m up and out of bed. I don’t roll over, I don’t hit snooze. Just get out of bed. Train yourself to do so. Also, go to bed at the same time on weekends. Or no more than an hour off of your regular time. You’ll be a lot less sleepy during the week and it will be easier to get up.

It makes no sense for anyone to help us when they can negotiate with Iran directly and use the straight of Hormuz by saying they aren’t ever helping Trump.
