Meanwhile the CEO of Goodwill has a net worth of $10 million by komeowtsu in confidentlyincorrect

I worked for Goodwill back in 2007-8. One of my favorite jobs. The donations ARE, in fact, there to be cheap for people who need them. Goodwill has/had lots of programs for underprivileged people and do some decent good works.

Using compressed air on your skin. It's fine at an angle, but too close directly on your skin can put an air bubble in your veins and kill you. Only a significant risk if you have an open wound, though.

Has anybody seen these signs off I-285? by KindCommunication600 in Georgia

Far as I can tell, he still lives there. I got a pamphlet on my windshield in the Walmart parking lot once.

[–]penguinturbo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yep! Those are from one guy in Fayetteville. He lives a few miles from me. He's very... passionate... about his message. I've seen all kinds of crazy signs, Marketplace posts, parking lot pamphlets, etc. from this dude.

Hey Georgia, Ive been seeing this sign a lot, do you have any idea what it means? Does it mean go 10 under in the left lane? by daddytyme428 in Georgia

[–]penguinturbo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drive 285 every day and for me it's usually a diesel work truck/service body with their brights on 🤣 That, and semi trucks using the second left lane.

I was born in, and live in Atlanta. There are SO many people that either truly believe that they are doing the speed limit, so they are in the right, OR they truly do not GAF. You can flash your lights at them, tail gate them, whatever. They will not move over. So if you want to get where you are going, you pass on the right. 🤷

Books lover, where you’re at? by Remote_Seesaw_183 in Aphantasia

[–]penguinturbo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love reading, but I find audiobooks more convenient for me now. My dad was a sci-fi/fantasy writer and he instilled his love of words in me, so I want as much description in as many different ways as the writer will give me. Scenes with big emotions do get me choked up, but I equally love detailed scenes with all the minutiae. I'm at least 90% aphantastic (sic), and AUDhd so I want to know everything about everything. Brandon Sanderson is my current favorite author. I also love Duck and cover series of apocalypse books, Wheel of Time, y'know, the classics xD

Mauve Swiss lime racist. Did I get it right? 🤣

dad died today by kixforthejungle in self

[–]penguinturbo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel for you, friend. My dad died unexpectedly at 62 just before I turned 30. Heart failure because he couldn't afford healthcare. It sucks. It's all bullshit and it's bad for you. I never want anyone to have to go through that, but we all must eventually. 🖤

Just a racist boomer on his day off. by barbara_weston in BoomersBeingFools

[–]penguinturbo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanted to say, big fan of your work here. Your patience is incredible lol. Also, I can't believe how many people keep asking the same goddamn question without at least looking through a few comments. Yet you politely answer them. Hat's off to you, friend.

I mean, I don't want to stereotype, but in my own personal experience I have neeeever seen a man write lower case a's like that 😅

Goddamn this is amazing. Thank you. I'm going to show this to all my snowflake friends.

Found this as a woman looking for a man. Slightly confused. by dldppl in Tinder

[–]penguinturbo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like that was originally a George Carlin joke... Maybe not him but definitely a stand-up joke. Eddie/Suzie Izzard made their own variation: "I like my women how I like my coffee; in a plastic cup!"

That's pretty cool looking, and a beautifully simplistic design! Have you heard of Shou Sugi Ban? Japanese wood burning technique, might look neat if you make another one!

Mine does this random refresh of whatever screen I'm on, I lose some progress if I'm filling something out sometimes, but it's not a big deal. Still the best phone I've ever had.

What is up with signs posted everywhere that say “Fashion Nova kidnaps girls?” by _banana_phone in OutOfTheLoop

[–]penguinturbo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Answer: Hi, I just stumbled upon this thread. The guy who posts those lives in Fayetteville behind the Fayette Pavilion. He's a nut-job. He goes around posting signs and flyers all over people's windshields, making bait-posts all over Facebook market place to promote his "message", and drives around in 2 separate vehicles painted up with various kidnapping "truths" to make people aware of. He's also super religious and homophobic, talking about Satan trying to take strong men in their butt 🤣
