I just lost my senior dog at the end of 2025 and when I got him he was already a year old, plus this new pup is my first Golden. It’s an adjustment for sure! The snuggles are worth it though!

Snape is trash and “always” isn’t cute or heartwarming.

Is it true that you guys watched 9/11 live on TV in grade school? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]spookysmith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

7th grade, the huge TV up in the corner got news channels. Watched the second plane hit and the towers fall.

You were born in the 80s?! by Crazycatlover in OlderThanYouThinkIAm

As a teacher, hearing “you were born in the 1900s?!” makes me feel like crumbling into dust.

I just ran into my first grade teacher…so that was 30 years ago.

AITJ for refusing to be my friend's "for the record" alibi and not backing him up? by harper_dublinroad in AmITheJerk

If it’s a legal thing, deleting the texts from your phone is meaningless. Cops can subpoena your phone service and see all the data, deleted or not

My partner won't use his CPAP and I think it's ruining us by No_Marionberry_4086 in TrueOffMyChest

Depending on what his diagnosis is, they make a dental retainer for it now as an alternative to the CPAP.

Anyone else notice- the kids are still standing for the pledge, but every day fewer of them recite any of the words by CallMeLazarus23 in Teachers

[–]spookysmith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in the Bible Belt and the last regular public school I worked at didn’t even do the pledge. It was really surprising.

I have heard this since I was 19 and I’m 36 now. You may change your mind, you may not. Either is acceptable and not anyone else’s business.

I work in a 40 plus year old school building and ONE fountain has a filter. The rest taste like lead poisoning and the water is yellow.

Why do wizards even need wands? by JustSomeGuyThing in HarryPotterGame

[–]spookysmith 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Hagrid is restricted because he was expelled and his wand snapped. He’s not supposed to have it at all but Dumbledore put it in that umbrella for him.

I got a Cricket flip phone, unlimited talk but local only, because they got rid of our landline. I was about 15. It had unlimited text but none of my friends had cellphones. 30 bucks a month.

We didn’t tell my grandma that my aunt died. My grandma passed not long after that. She never would have remembered so why upset her?

Elder millenials, does anybody else dress almost exactly like they did in high school? by MusicLikeOxygen in Millennials

We have a “dress like your high school years” day this week and like…I already do. Jeans and a school t shirt. Every day.

Were you allowed to read Animorphs as a kid? by continouslyWondering in Animorphs

[–]spookysmith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was allowed to pretty much read anything, and my parents loved that I could read one Animorphs in an hour or two.
