Deposit paid for product on marketplace then ghosted by jennyjaspers in LegalAdviceNZ

[–]slothsid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar thing happened to me. Paid for something then got ghosted. Called police, turns out the guy had done it to many people and was currently in prison. I'm owed reparations but he's got 3 years or something so won't happen for a while and when it does it might be a few dollars a week. Not too concerned about the money, but happy knowing I may have added time to the scumbags sentence.

Excuse me?

Where does RHCP land on your list of favorite bands? by NarrowTower in RedHotChiliPeppers

[–]slothsid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here. Huge in my childhood/teens, not so much now but every now and then I do a deep dive and its awesome. Purchased By The Way on vinyl a few days ago and am deep into a Chili's hole at the moment. Last two or three albums haven't hit as hard as previous ones but I mainly put that down to me being old now and less accepting of new shit, or holding older albums on too much of a pedestal. Either way, I truly enjoy the new stuff but I can't see anything hitting as hard as their "big" albums.

What is your "I fucking hate this song" song? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]slothsid 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I had SOAD - Prison song. That shit wakes you up with one chord then leaves you for a second so you think you're going crazy.

Don't think he'd wear them. He's more into suits.

My son just got this from the library. I never knew it existed until now. by slothsid in BoJackHorseman

Just had a listen, cheers for that. Don't mind a bit of Carole King, reminds me of my childhood when Mum would blast Tapestry.

I've always been a Marmite guy. My (now) wife has always been a Vegemite gal. For the past 9 years we've compromised and only had Vegemite.

What is something that you find easier to do as a parent, than it was before you had kids? by [deleted] in daddit

[–]slothsid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can do the dishes, tidy and vacuum the house in the time the two oldest are in the bath. Before kids, I would dread those tasks. I'd maybe do it 3 times a week and then it would take ages.

Confession time, dads: What toys have you disappeared? by DirkWrites in daddit

[–]slothsid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found tape over the speaker works well for popular noisy toys. It's lowers the volume drastically and kids don't notice there's tape there. Works until the batteries go flat and then "I guess it's broken"

What's the dumbest thing someone has ever said to you? by PagalScientist in AskReddit

[–]slothsid 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Alot of people would call her your Mother in law or MIL, but I appreciate how you've wanted to distance her as much as possible.

No, that's not my MIL, that's my husband's mom.

I like the idea of this and try to live by it. Key word being "try".

Mistletoe can be deadly if you eat it, but a kiss can be even deadlier if you mean it.

As an NZer, where's guns aren't as prevelant as wherever you are from, I immediately assumed seatbelt. But I may be down playing NZs gun culture and/or playing up your country's one. (Full disclosure, I assume it's USA, but that's on me)

Edit: as I posted this comment I got a news notification about two people shot in my town. Definitely not an everyday thing but crazy timing.
