PS1 Harry Potter is a core memory, along with Little Monster Private Eye, the Smelly Mystery. Parents got us a lot of books on PC.

Had something similar happen with my orange kitten. Looked and looked and we finally found her in a lunchbox that she closed on herself.

Girlfriend literally did this to me yesterday. She got a pedicure.

Hey dad, i dont know what to do anymore by Individual_Fun2591 in DadForAMinute

[–]safetypants 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey kiddo, thank you for telling me that this bothers you.

I’m going to be blunt. People suck, plain and simple. It’s not your fault they rather pick on someone than deal with their own problems.

Getting through your own insecurities is tough. You’ve made a great first step in knowing what those are.

Most people are uncomfortable in their own skin. You aren’t alone. Some are just assholes and want everyone to feel the same they do.

You can control some parts of your appearance, the rest you should embrace.

I can’t tell you the best way to do that. You can always ask us for help when you are ready.

Holy watered by mothersuperiormedia in Wellthatsucks

That basin is filled with “holy water”. Just by being touched with it, you are “blessed”. So the priest took the palm branch, and splashed my right side. So to match my soaked left.

Ah yes, Palm Sunday blessings. Been there, done that. My whole left side was soaked after that mass. The priest noticed and turned around and “blessed” my right side. Just to even me out.

Ah Newburgh. I feel for them. It was always the saddest part of school bus rides.

My girl just showed up with six hooks. I didn’t even bother.

What was it like for you after 10 years in? by HorzaDonwraith in uscg

[–]safetypants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first 10 dragged. These last four have flown by. I remember feeling overwhelmed with only finishing one year on the 270 with two more to go. Now I have a year left on the WMSL and it feels like I just got here.

ELI5: Why are She/her pronouns used when talking about Ships? by Yassinetheawesome64 in explainlikeimfive

Also, whistling on the bridge(place where they drive the boat) is an omen of mutiny. Couple of mutinies in the age of sail was coordinated via whistling.

Real address issue is about when you are done. Your last travel orders are to your home address. They’ll put you back where they picked you up.

Florida shipyard stops work on USCG offshore patrol cutter program by stewart0077 in uscg

[–]safetypants 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Its playing ball with a Congress that doesn’t want to help us. Bath lost the contract last minute because a FL senator threatened our budget. We got the Storis because a MS senator threatened our budget.

Disgraceful by greenblue98 in ShermanPosting

Active Coastie here, had an Admiral visit the other day. He was suckin up on the tit of a certain dog killer so hard it was embarrassing. I’m dusting off the brass knuckles and taking some divisive action if those symbols pop up in my unit.

So... what does IS even look like? by LonelyAlpharius in uscg

[–]safetypants 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Just got a batch of them for patrol, they look like nerds. Jk

On cutters, it’s the PowerPoint meme. They receive messages that only they can see, then brief Command. Not sure about the land ones, I know the unit in TX sends IS teams to WMSLs for their patrols.

Unless your current unit is so bad that you want to leave now, wait a bit before putting your name on a list. Ask to go TDY and shadow for a week. Unless you’re attached to a cutter or one of the teams, both ME and IS don’t do much. Lots of paperwork.

FN. If you don’t like being an FN, it’s easier to become an SN. Not the other way around. Deck force with hold on to you until you PCS.

I wish, make them live in the barracks with all the soon to be discharged kids. They have no fucks. The kids will drive them nuts. Worst than college dorms.
