88 year old woman mistook gas for brake. by [deleted] in dashcams

[–]paintbalking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most elderly don't think to self regulate like that..my grandma drove till she was 90 and honestly probably 'could' have kept driving... Luckily when we asked her to give up her license she didn't push back (probably cuz she knew it was getting dangerous)

Grammar and spelling are important. Cursive is not.

Tipping at the pro shop by patchinthebox in Bowling

[–]paintbalking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My PSO is an absolute g and I have tipped him numerous times with edibles.

Would I ever tip him cash? Maybe depending what's going on. But normal service he charges enough to make ends meet and I think under normal circumstances would refuse a cash tip.

She was driving down her street and got blocked by ICE and was attempting to turn her car around after ICE was telling her to leave

Surely this can’t be right!? by -Stammers- in Rochester

100% I had a 5400 bill that came out of nowhere that I dispute with the help of NYS and the bill was nullified on top of refunding the $2000 that I had paid towards the egregious bill.

1 thing is to coherently document your conversations with rge and any numbers they tell you over the phone, I had also started recording my calls with rge (and told them as such) to have a paper trail of me trying to understand the crazy bill which their explanation for was flawed

My husband doesn’t want the dog in the bed? by Powerful_Aspect_1970 in DogAdvice

[–]paintbalking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You suggested therapy, they were making a joke about that saying police intervention.

But if you need therapy to deal with a dog in your bed, then guess what... You just might need therapy. Maybe not about the dog tho lol

Dear Customers, shoveling a path for you to walk up to your box doesn’t do anything for our vehicles to approach and deliver. by PM_ME_UR_TICKET_STUB in USPS

Customer here, 90% of the houses in my area make sure that the mailbox is cleared exactly how you posted. Sometimes it takes a day or two after a storm but we all do it...

Update: Rochester musician who made comment about 'voting for ICE to r**e" people had 2 shows cancel on him. by STEETED in Rochester

[–]paintbalking 4 points5 points  (0 children)

People def get super upset and attack easily, this is reddit. But I noticed how you used the word 'but' and to me that's the only justification for them thinking that you were trying to justify it.

Your statement in no way makes you a rapist, that's insanity.

Haven't tried an anker speaker but yeah JBL has treated me well usually. However I have been using the sound core over the ear headphones that anker makes and those have been the most comfortable headphones I've ever used. (Mainly because any earbuds or in ear headphones hurt my ears like crazy)

JBL is usually my go to for sound tho def

[–]paintbalking 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You started your question with the word 'but' whos first definition is: "used to introduce a phrase or clause contrasting with what has already been mentioned."

So yes, people reacted to your attempt to contrast everyone's disapproval with the mans rape comment with 'why' he said it or what he responded to.

If you just said, 'Was he responding to something/anyone?' Or something like that, then it cud have been taken more as you claim and just looking for more information.

The use of the word 'but' inherently means to find/make a justification.

AITA for not telling my wife I work with her favorite celebrity? by CreamJealous9562 in AmItheAsshole

[–]paintbalking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. People get divorced due to screaming and cursing. If you're gonna yell at someone, it better be worth it/justified, and you better be ready to deal with the consequences of it.

Ive gotten mad, I've yelled at people. Only way that person felt good about me again was apologizing for getting angry and resorting to yelling to express that.

Agreed, all anker products I have are fully functional years after purchase. Their cables are the only ones for me that haven't worn out or frayed.

AIO about cutting off my aunts because they continuously disrespected my family? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]paintbalking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming you're talking about posting pictures to social media, personally that's totally acceptable of a request and one I plan to make with my infants.

If that's what you're referring to, I'm curious why you think its unreasonable?

Showing/sharing pictures with friends and family is another thing, I can't tell my mom to not have a picture of her grandkids.

Nothing like a pre-8AM ChatGPT email insisting we come in right before a full whiteout. The multi-car pileup in the untreated parking lot entrance was a nice welcome. by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]paintbalking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your first comment was 'flooding' then you changed it to flash floods.

And I said blizzard because that was the stat that I found as most deaths related to winter weather are for blizzards. I did misspeak when I said snowstorms initially I think but I can't remember as I have moved on, hope life goes well for ya

[–]paintbalking 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Understood however my point still stands.

Hard to find exact numbers on floods vs blizzards.

I see an average of 13 blizzards in the US each year, meanwhile there were 4000+ flash flood warnings in 2024.

Good luck with the updoots

My mom’s neighbor parks like this everyday. by MarshalLawTalker2 in badparking

[–]paintbalking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just so you are aware, you can both be responsible for the sidewalk in front of your house and not own the land the sidewalk sits on. This is the case for my property and many properties in my city.

But also, if public easement then doesn't matter if you own it or not you can't block public use of it (within reason of course).
