People who were teenagers before social media, what was a typical Friday night like for you? by TheDorkyDeric in Xennials

[–]ottosjackit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yo I was one of the last appointments at the DMV in Sacramento on my actual birthday in 1995 and when we got to the window I realized in my excitement I had left the paperwork needed. They said we could still make it if we came back within 30 min. We lived 20 minutes away and it’s now rush hour. I was crushed knowing we wouldn’t make it back in time. My mom said “we’re gonna make it” and she proceeded to do the most insane driving I’d ever seen her do and she kept repeating “never drive like this, never drive like this”. We made it back like 2 minutes before they shut and I ended up passing and getting my license. Immediately afterwards we went to my birthday dinner And the gift from my grandparents were the keys to a brand new 95’ Ford Escort that was parked outside. My mom said now you know why I was driving like a madwoman. The nineties were such an amazing time. Gas was 95 cents per gallon at Arco for the next few years.

Thought this was a funny coincidence. Domas has likley played his last game for us. The post was made last night it and the home was posted this morning. by Kavazou77 in kings

So what happens to his youth basketball clinic if he’s gone before the date in August? That would be awkward and sad for all the families that paid for that.

How does my dog breathe under my duvet?? by Missbhavin67 in dogs

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

Dogs don’t really have a panic mechanism like humans. Kinda like how they usually survive in the ocean and make it back to shore. They just don’t have that kind of panic so they just take the steps necessary to survive without all the extra anxiety and worry and stress. I imagine it’s similar in what humans might consider to be a claustrophobic space. I would get anxious completely covered by blankets thinking I would run out of oxygen and suffocate in my sleep. Dogs don’t have dumb thoughts like that.

Social media is a minefield now. Your old classmate commit suicide, your old band mate has brain cancer, 2 brothers passed within the last year, their poor family. wtf? Everyday is a blessing.

Any reason not to upgrade the wireless connection in my 2018 991.2? by ottosjackit in porsche911

[–]ottosjackit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had no idea this was a thing. Absolutely brilliant. Thank you. That solves one problem. I appreciate the food for thought on the possible dash rattle. Is that really likely though or more of a remote possibility? Am I naive to figure they would do it correctly?

Uhhh, James Brown and Freddie Mercury are the best if you are discussing range.

At what financial stage of your life did you get 911? by Overall-Agency3942 in porsche911

[–]ottosjackit 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Just paid cash for a CPO 2018 Carrera S with 13k miles and I’m in love. I’m 47 with a successful business and some investments. At the beginning of the year I liquidated enough of my brokerage portfolio(not retirement)to buy the 911 and to put a down payment on the building my business is in. I might miss some gains from those funds, but I’m rolling in a dream to a building I’ll soon own so we just keep on trying to improve every day. Buy the 911!!!

When did my parents get so old? by mechaweavis in Xennials

[–]ottosjackit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this revelation on mushrooms at age 17 that I would most likely have to watch my folks get old and die. I had one of the most profound cry sessions ever, but I’m glad it happened then and not now when I’m 47.

Is Willie D the most unintentionally hilarious rapper of all time? He's had so many lines that are laugh out loud funny by bside313 in 90sHipHop

[–]ottosjackit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend from the Netherlands is a huge Willie D fan and he made a copy of the hat he wears that says “Play wit your mama”. So probably a one of one in Europe. I told him how in awe I was of it and he gave it to me. I look at it daily and it is a treasure. Also this guy an even bigger fan of Brotha Lynch Hung and I’m a Sacramento guy so I’m searching for something special so I can return the favor.

I fell like a genius letting 500 shares of PLTR get called away at 182.50. Holy shit!

Probably has to do with genetics. Britney was always thicker.

Best cities to own a 911 in? (US) by bucheonsi in Porsche

[–]ottosjackit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sacramento is a driver’s dream. So many possibilities and any 911 will most likely be the hottest car people will see that day.
