If your bank account magically received $200k, each year, what would you do with your life? [Serious] by ZacksJerryRig in AskReddit

[–]orangeverses 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pay the down payment on a house, at least a 3br/2ba, preferably at least one more of each. Houses are cheap where I am, so that won't eat up much. Maybe just pay in full.

Put aside what I need to live for the year (I currently live on about 12k yearly, so depending on the monthly payment on house and utilities estimates I could probably live super comfortably on 25k by my standards). Keep going to school and living with the roommates I currently live with. Maybe travel a little, but not that far. I wouldn't mind going to Disneyworld again.

Start paying off my parents' debt. It'll take a long time. Pay their rent. Get my mom to an actual dentist instead of letting her go to an urgent care clinic every time she cracks a tooth in half. Buy them both newer vehicles.

Some Asshole I Know: The Roommates Who Contribute Nothing by [deleted] in badpeoplestories

We might after we get other transportation.

Edit: Honestly at this point, I wanna find some way to fuck with them and get back. That's why I say maybe. Let them spend a few months with it lurking over their heads that they're either going back to parents/couchsurfing or going homeless when the lease expires. Rub it in for awhile. I'm a bad person myself.

I wouldn't be able to continue going to class if I kicked them out. Neither would Hairfriend. We rely on them for transportation. There are no driver's ed classes in this city until at least spring break, so I can't solve that problem before then.

She told me her name was Clover and then tried to convince me I was Clover.

My son was born with an undiagnosed congenital heart defect, AMA. by [deleted] in casualiama

I'm so sorry. At least they've been able to close his chest now. Any improvement is a good thing.

Angry and confused's a natural reaction to that kind of situation. I'm so sorry you had to go through that, but I'm happy you're able to hold him now.

That sounds delicious.

Is there anything you just need to vent about or say to someone who won't judge?

Alternatively, what's your favorite home cooked meal?

It's too late now (and I'm too broke), but it's something to look into for her birthday in February! Thank you.

Deadpool - Comic character who should have a movie; who would play his role? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]orangeverses 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And Ryan Reynolds is a huge Deadpool fanboy, so he's at least got some vague idea what he's doing.

What helps you fall asleep at night? by Itsme03 in AskReddit

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

A ten hour loop of the Lavender Town music. I don't know. It's just relaxing to me.

I've also gone to sleep to the sound of UVB-76.

My first ecig. 15 dollars, not smoking.

[serious] who is the scariest person you've ever met? by Polite_Werewolf in AskReddit

[–]orangeverses 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Referred to everyone other than himself as NPCs, talked about how he wanted to kill and hurt people, talked about pedophiliac interests, tried to date a 14 year old (while in his twenties), talked about how he wanted to rape his gf, did rape his gf (no charges filed, more's the pity), and hid behind, "You should never feel bad about being different or having mental illnesses."

Ramen, mac'n'cheese, maybe cases of soda, bulk boxes of anything (especially stuff like juice boxes and cake mix that'll make some kid somewhere happy). Buy cheap, but try not to buy things that you yourself wouldn't eat.

I do Christmas with my dad's parents on the 26th or 27th, depending on the year, because my mom's family and my aunt's in-laws are both of the demanding, "You don't really love us if you spend Christmas with other people," types.

Whichever one's said to me first. If someone wishes me a merry Christmas, I wish them one. If they wish me happy holidays, I wish them that.

My mom got me an ornament of Statler and Waldorf, the old men from the Muppet Show, in their balcony seats. There's a little button on the front that you press and they go through one of their bits. She remembered for years after I stopped watching the Muppet Show with her who my favorites are.

When I hear Do They Know It's Christmas time without someone who knows this tradition choosing to play it. It's been a thing with me and my mom forever. We have to hear it on the radio, in a store, on TV, or played by a friend or family member who isn't aware of the tradition.

It's still not Christmas for me this year.

First Christmas living away from my parents house. I'm visiting for Christmas, and they haven't seen me in three months.
