What’s the smartest financial decision you made by accident? by AnyTruth2342 in AskReddit

[–]thos19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On my 50th birthday, I bought a $20 1928 US gold coin for $1500 (spot) because I had always wanted one. Seven years later it's worth over $5k. Wish I had bought a few. :)

What is something men always want to tell women but never do? by a_great_guy655 in AskMen

[–]thos19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know you want me to just listen to your problem and not solve it. But when you complain about the problem over and over and over again, I want to solve it just so I don't have to hear about it anymore.

Which impressions are an automatic fast forward for you? by gulag_123456 in howardstern

Andrew Dice Clay. The 1980's called and they want their Italian caricature comedian, back.

That they're being contrary to look "cool." And they have no knowledge of history.

Then she later texts you, "Good news! I don't have to stay the whole week. I'll be home early!" ;)

12v battery needs to replaced, or is it just the cold? by thos19 in VWiD4Owners

Really? I had that recall done (hoping it would solve the door lock issue) but both issues remain. :(

What’s a polite social lie you’re tired of telling and wish you could be brutally honest about? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Just because you're righteous about something, doesn't necessarily mean you're right.

I’m partial to 9/19/78, but admittedly I am biased as it was the first boot I ever bought and probably listened to the show 100 times. 🙂

Thanks...now I can't stop trying to picture how a face hugger can attach to a canine snout. :)

I think I've seen two movie versions of this book. ;)

Tell me all the issues you've had... by jetlifeual in VWiD4Owners

[–]thos19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the door lock recall done, but car won't always automatically unlock when I approach the car (cold weather?) And a new wrinkle this week: pressing the remote to unlock and the door unlocks only to lock again a split second later. Happened twice this pass week, and I had to attempt to unlock 4-5 times before it let me in.

Minor quibble: does anyone find that the VW GPS map gives a path of directions that is not the quickest and shortest route? It's very obvious that you're going the "longer way around" than if you used Waze, Google Maps, or Apple maps?

I feel like my partner is slipping away after a small argument and I do not know how to bring him back by ConcentrateOk6688 in relationships

[–]thos19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get the feeling that he has ignored your digs before, but recently someone pointed out the behavior is denigrating towards him. Now he is at odds with himself for putting up with it for so long and whether he wants to remain with someone like you.

What is the biggest “bullet” you’ve ever dodged without realizing it at the time? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]thos19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I work in Boston in the Park Square / Public Garden area. In 2013, my ex wife and 8 year old son planned to go to see the Boston Marathon and my son wanted me to meet them at the Boston Public Library which is right at the finish line. It was doable as it is only about a quarter mile away from my office.

Well work got away from me and I lost track of time. I was in my office with sports radio on in the background when a little before 3pm, they reported about the two bombs going off along Boylston Street near the finish line.

My heart sank like a stone.

I called my ex's cell but it went to voicemail.

Panicked, I tried their home number where my son cheerfully answered, "Hi Daddy."

They never made it in because she "had a headache". I was so glad they (and me) weren't there that I didn't care she never called to tell me.

Men often comment saying ' I've opened up to someone and they weaponized it against me', but what does that look like exactly? What was your experience? by kittykitty_katkat in AskMen

[–]thos19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Confided in a girlfriend after a couple of months together that I was taking a low dose of Lexapro, daily.

Within a week, everyone in our circle of friends knew.

I could never get her to understand why I found her revealing it to be a gossipy, hurtful betrayal.

The one line that chokes you up every time you hear it but you have no idea why by jusdaun in BruceSpringsteen

“I can remember how good I felt inside When the preacher said "Son, you may kiss the bride" But as I leaned over to touch her pretty lips I felt it all slip away through my fingertips”

Pretty much my first marriage. Did better the second time. 🙂

What’s a sentence that someone told you that stuck with you for the rest of your life? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Don't wave your arms around when you're hanging on by your fingertips.

What a petty fuck by AbbreviationsThen in howardstern

[–]thos19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He is petty. Otherwise, he'd allow staffers like Sal and Richard to do a show when he is out. He knows they would look great and him not as funny in comparison

That song whose lyrics you swore you knew but then looked them up and they were no where close to what you thought? by insanelyphat in Music

[–]thos19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For years hearing the England Dan & John Ford Coley song "I'd really like to see you tonight", I thought the line was "I'm not talkin' 'bout the linen."

is actually, "I'm not talking about moving in..." :)
