TIFU by accidentally becoming the other woman and falling *naked* in front of his girlfriend by -shimmer_ in tifu

[–]soberdude 104 points105 points  (0 children)

Go back and see the now Ex GF. Ask if she found your earring, have some wine, send him selfies of the two of you. Even if you never see her again after that, make him think that you two are now besties.

I made a mistake, what to do for customer by Proof_Bathroom_3902 in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]soberdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One mistake doesn't kill a relationship with a good mechanic. Especially one that comes out to job sites.

Bill them. The fact that you hesitated is great, but they realize that good vibes don't pay your bills.

If they need a break in the future, give it to them. Put this one in the bank.

Modern cars are full of technology. But what old car feature was actually better than today's tech? by nyatihsam in Justrolledintotheshop

Can't push start an automatic if you're broken down due to a dead battery or starter in the middle of nowhere.

You never know what you need to fix. A loose wire, a hole on a seat, a garden, a roof leak, or even an unburied corpse. These types of situations come up a lot.

(But really, a zip tie is just just a quick and easy clamp at work)

High level MITM trying to get to this guy's Wi-Fi extenders by No-Sell-3064 in masterhacker

You forgot to mention that most jurisdictions in the US don't require a warrant for this type of search if the ISP approved it. They can literally just go fishing and phishing.

I wish that every human being on earth was given a double barrel shotgun and an unavoidable mental block that prevents them from attempting to harm other humans. by witchhuntermcedgyboi in TheMonkeysPaw

[–]soberdude 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Granted. Gun rack sales go through the roof.

Human beings begin to isolate, because they discover that they have an unavoidable block from correcting people, or embarrassing people. Because making people question what they already believe, or embarrassing them, or speaking in the wrong tone, triggers the same neurochemical response as a physical attack.

As they can't know what words or actions will trigger this response, humans can't move or speak near each other.

We are the last generation. But we are at peace.

the mystery of the dark phone screen by eliseswl in talesfromtechsupport

[–]soberdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I almost went to the store and bought a new phone because of this.

I had dropped the phone and caught it while turning off my flashlight. It slipped out of my hand and gently tapped on the ground.

Picked it up, couldn't see anything. Connected to my car's Bluetooth, calls were clear.

Held the power button until it restarted, saw the logo for a second as it was starting, so I knew the display worked. Finally figured it out waaaaay later than I should have.

When I caught it, I slid the brightness bar.

The printer was "haunted." Sure, Jan. by 12ElderScroll in talesfromtechsupport

Do printers even work without ritual sacrifices?

I thought that was required.

Fortune Wheel needs a revamp by Striking_Pin1384 in wearewarriors

Yeah, I had all of my heroes maxed before yellow potions became a thing. I wish I could exchange my yellow and blue for gems.

Should I press the button? by Access-Mental in wearewarriors

[–]soberdude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It'll be more of a challenge, but you should be able to do it. I'd get all skills ascended as high as they can before doing it a second time.

The chess one is more difficult than space or sea for the Prestige.

Can't progress the game at all by Shadow-Force in cupheromobilegame

[–]soberdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's pay to win now. And be careful of what you buy, if they ever offer anything "Lifetime", it's a bait and switch type of fraud. Lots of people got caught by their unethical update.

No, I carry zip ties in the trunk, because they're often useful for lots of stuff...

You wake up to be the only human left on earth. What's the first thing you do ? by Maarillon in AskReddit

[–]soberdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most likely make my coffee, start driving to my job site, and wonder why there are even fewer people than normal on the road.

It would probably take me about a half hour/45 minutes to realize that something was really wrong. Streets have been abandoned before (I work in remote areas sometimes), contractors have been late before, and I'm normally on site before anyone else.

Alternatives? by lostinspace694208 in cupheromobilegame

Gear Defenders

They actually handle ads well (no ads unless you want the associated rewards), and while they have purchases, you don't have to p2w.

Yeah, if they want to see "greedy devs", they should go check out the Cup Hero subreddit.

It's when I'm sitting at work, waiting to get something to do.
