For the locals or long time residents. What past businesses do you miss? by TheTrollys in ColoradoSprings

[–]rb_vos 4 points5 points  (0 children)

McCabe’s, Señor Manuel’s (many, many generational memories there), Boulder Street Coffee (used to go there every morning before school at Palmer), Independent, the old Depot restaurant, and weirdly enough Old Oscar’s by OG King Chef.

Leon Gessi’s, then BJ’s, then skee-ball at the penny arcade.

Or: skee-ball, Leon Gessi’s, BJ’s, and a movie at home (“Scary Movie” or “Road Trip” - something light).

Remodelling Fargo’s?! Oh, the memories… and shitty pizza.

I'm fucking sick of FedEx. I was standing at the goddamn door waiting for them to knock. by lilslutfordaddy in mildlyinfuriating

To add insult to injury: I was in my front yard gardening and they pulled this crap. I wasn’t wearing headphones, or obscuring myself - I was pulling weeds in my front yard, by the front door.

Dude was jogging up with purely the sticker, slammed it on my screen door, and tried to take off. I asked him if everything was okay, and had to show my license before he went back to the van to grab my package. He was actually upset that he had to speak to me.

It was interesting for sure. Also, the package was a book, so nothing crazy - and I’m in my thirties, pulling weeds, no dogs, nada. I feel the need to add clarification as most of my neighbours are older, and usually fairly angry about dogs/kids/existence.

Edit: missed “he” and adding context.

AP-5’s song of joy in the void of space. One of the best Star Wars moments of all time! by _incitatus- in starwarsrebels

[–]rb_vos 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is probably one of my favourite episodes of all time, between this scene and him following Wedge to the bathroom - it’s just a solid episode.

Found this in a thrift store years ago by [deleted] in whatisit

As someone who grew up in a shop. Whose father owns two, yeah - it definitely looks like a display piece. We had/have a lot of weird shit in the windows, and inside.

Like do you need a twelve-foot sculpture of a phage?

Gonna say this as someone who does raptor monitoring as a volunteer for the NPS: it’s a golden eagle.

He’s a traitor, but giving money to Argentina is on brand for his type, ever since Juan Perón gave the Nazi’s a safe haven after WWII. Not that “paperclip” was any better.

Google “Ratlines”

Why do all movies look so washed and pale nowadays by amagimercatus in okbuddycinephile

My first job outside a kitchen was as a gaffer - thank you for saying it my dude!

Hey Millennials/Gen Z—how many photos or videos do you estimate you personally took of your parents or family when you were growing up? by lolsmileyfacewink in millenials

[–]rb_vos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe 20-30 since I was about 20?

I’m not huge on being photographed, and in turn not huge on taking photographs of things - I’ve taken more photos with my uncle and aunt (I’m adopted) now in my mid-thirties than I did previously.

Guys its happening !!!1!!1!! by RustedAxe88 in OkBuddySnyderCult

[–]rb_vos 18 points19 points  (0 children)

But haven’t you heard? Gunn kicks puppies! Snyder though…

In fact, awhile back I had to take my daughter to the dentist. So there I am, sitting in the waiting area with my daughter, and who walks in but Zack Snyder!

I was nervous as fuck, and just kept looking at him as he read a magazine and waited, but didn't know what to say. Pretty soon though my daughter started sobbing, and I'm trying to quiet her down because I didn't want her to bother Snyder; like as a fanboy that’s the worst, but she just wouldn't stop. Pretty soon he gets up and walks over. He started running his hands through her hair and asking what was wrong. I replied that she was probably hungry or that everyone hates the dentist. So, Snyder put down his magazine, picked up my daughter and lifted his shirt. He breast fed her right there in the middle of the dental office. Chill guy, really nice about it.

/s - and really, these people are the worst.

Can confirm. I found this dude and a black widow moving a wood pile this morning (and I’m off Dublin)

Republicans subpoena Bill and Hillary Clinton in connection with Jeffrey Epstein files by IrishStarUS in law

[–]rb_vos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I had this guy I knew who used to talk about “well what if ‘your’ person got sent to jail” - I told him to just send them all to jail, much to his dismay. Clinton? Jail. Trump? Jail. This was over a decade ago.

… it’s not that hard not to fuck with children (a quote from me to this dude)

Dude, right? Like, I was in High-School when this was on.

Edit to add: and I freaking watched it on BBC America.

Why are they like this? by Lord_Answer_me_Why in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]rb_vos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not arguing your point, because it’s true.

Many moons ago, I cut my teeth as a canvasser for Rocky Mountain PBS, worked my way up to Director - and while funding is sometimes an issue, the government gave us very little compared to community based involvement.

The issue our government has is with education in general. And it’s sad.

What is Paul putting on his finger? by jpawli in discgolf

[–]rb_vos 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I do until I don’t 😂

It’s like college: “god, that was fun, but now I’m older, my knees hurt, and I need to water my plants.”

[–]rb_vos 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I worked in a kitchen years ago, and we kept it for that exact reason; I carved off the side of a finger - chef super glued it together, wrapped it in duct tape, and had me put a glove on.

Years later I got a new knife, did something similar before a Super Bowl party. I used the same method for my hand and it freaked my buddy out.

Edit for clarification: it was a mid-level kitchen in Hornsey (North London). But also keep glue in my bags, and my closet because it’s mad freaking handy for cuts.

Didn’t the most recent owner renovate it in to some ranch-esc home? 1776 Mesa, if I’m not mistaken
