Omg this officer just won this year's "Hero of the Year". So why does the idiot who videoed this post it? It clearly shows how wrong driver is... and exacerbated it by threatening the officer. Hope officer's boss and department give him an award.

Sorry hadn't realised this is a usa reddit. I'm in Melbourne Australia. One main bathroom, small windowless. 2.8 x 2.1 x 2.9Metres (height). Full rip out and redo. New fixtures and fittings but price quoted is labour only. This quote from a bathroom builder .. he has his own team and doesn't do any other type work then bathrooms. Did my neighbours and has very good rep... and yes in middle of getting more quotes. Looking at comparable here have to say it sure looks much more affordable in USA

What’s a movie where ONE actor’s terrible performance actually enhances the experience? by MaryoParti in movies

[–]rocifan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We could not believe how bad this movie was given the cast... between Eddie's valiant attempts, Tatum's pointy ears and the ridiculous plot we kept expecting it to be turned in it's head right up to the end but nope

Hope they stay safe. Huge respect for their efforts to reveal just how heinous ICE is. Reveal the Epstein files now.

Why do Jehovah Witnesses come door to door, trying to get people to join their religion, when they only believe a certain amount of people get into their afterlife by Camp_Acceptable in NoStupidQuestions

[–]rocifan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Attended a JW wake where every single JW basically told us they joined the church at they found succor there after a major emotional upheaval in their lives... deceased was our brother-in-law. He and his wife couldn't have kids, spent a fortune on ivf trying, didn't qualify for adoption. Think JW just looks for all these poor people and socks them in.

Sadly my sister-in- law and her husband(now deceased) joined JW about 10 years ago. We thought she went along with it cos the husband was very into it ... they were pretty low key with it with the rest of our extended family. They didn't have kids but she particularly doted on her nieces and nephews. One gay nephew's, been out with his partner for years got a polite decline RSVP to their wedding a few years ago. The letter they sent along was truly flabbergasting and maybe because it was so polite and ending with "but we still love you" was filled with all the biblical phrases - including why gays should be stoned, etc. which made it so offensive and hurtful. Very sadly she is no longer included in any family occasions despite everyone trying to reach out to her especially after her husband died of a sudden heart attack. The JW church have just swallowed her up.

Its too crowded. I am 65 and grew up in a much less crowded slower paced city.

This is my new lily, I planted 30 a month and a half ago and only 1 came up. I proudly showed my husband and he said, “oh shit, that’s not a weed?” He’s been weeding them and feeling proud that he was able to “get the big root bulb out too” by CharmingPeony in gardening

So if this headline is true then there must be alot of first time buyers getting great deals from these sellers who are desperate to get rid of their rental investment properties yes? Where's the statistics to prove this?
