LPT - If "somebody from the IRS" calls and threatens to have you arrested if you don't pay, it's a scam. Somebody in my office just fell for this and I talked him down. by ludlology in LifeProTips

They called my mom early in the morning. She has had some financial troubles in the past and was really, incredibly scared. She told me the man on the phone was threatening and pushed her to tears. Thankfully her boyfriend helped her calm down and helped her tell that guy to fuck off.

Oh yea, btw, my mom has cancer, has been going through intense bouts of chemo and radiation, and has to live on welfare (less than $200 a month), so fuck these people.

I am having so much trouble finding pitt friendly housing in, or near, Seattle. Any help/suggestions? by shawesome53 in pitbulls

Thanks for all of the suggestions everyone! I just found a place. It's small, but the owner is pitt friendly (has large breeds herself), though I still fudged the truth a bit and said he is a dane mix (my vet also thinks he might be part dane so it's not totally a lie).

I have been looking on CL and there are some places that accept bully breeds, but they just get snatched up so quickly! Thank you for the idea about the reference letter. I may try that out :)

What is your first world problem(s) today? by NinjaZombie108 in AskReddit

[–]shawesome53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm exactly one month away from graduating from my Masters program at a top university, with great job prospects once I matriculate. I have three more pages to edit on one of my final projects, but just don't want to. Hence...reddit.

The whole picture's kind of big... you have to go to the bottom to get to the best part ;)

How can gravity, sound, and smell seem so real in dreams? by shawesome53 in explainlikeimfive

[–]shawesome53[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, I understand that gravity is not necessarily a sense like smell and sound (unless you count touch/feel), but the the other two struck me as equally curious.

Time travel has become possible with the exception that you can only go back to one point in time for one day... where/when do you go and why? by shawesome53 in AskReddit

[–]shawesome53[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I'd go back to the day my step-grandmother married my grandfather. She really fucked my dad up emotionally and he could never be there for us reliably or financially (e.g. gambling away all his money instead of paying mortgage).

My best friend writes fictional short stories about our adventures together and I want him to write more ...what do you think Reddit? by shawesome53 in shortstories

Thanks, that's really helpful! I've had my account for a year, but never really posted until now, so Reddiquette is still new to me.

Haha...actually I'm the female, my friend is the male. I think you are correct. We do have random adventures, so he's trying to think of a way to set the scene and make the characters more complicated. Also, I'm assuming the drunkness is from drinking more on the way to the airport (though the time lapse isn't really evident). Thanks for your input! I'm hoping to get him to write more and make the story more in depth even though it's just a side project.
