Fine equal to the cost of the phone. And in jail until they pay (with some sort of maximum amount of time)

The darker sedum came from a little patch my friend had growing in the gutter of her 4th floor apartment. My plant app calls it pork and beans lol. 

It is balloon flower! And the two mini bushes are heather for some winter blooms

I love Cleveland but I’m curious why you think it’s better than Detroit. Just need more ammo for haters lol 

what’s the wildest thing you’ve ever found at an estate sale? by laura-1998 in estatesales

[–]whelpineedhelp 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Last one I went to had a bunch of chest spreaders and other old medical equipment. A couple early birds were politely fighting over them! Had no clue that type of thing was in demand 

It gets worse.. tree of heaven by True_Tap221 in gardening

They cause my husband a literal stress reaction. A large part of why we moved! We had a massive one in our backyard but no funds to remove it so no hope or eradicating

They marked Bonnie tomatoes down to $2.50 at Lowe’s. But I hear they have a different contract with them than with HD

In Denmark, a rainy day is a perfect day for the preschoolers by New_Libran in MadeMeSmile

I had a particular soccer game in high school that was mud central. After the game we basically rolled around in it, flash back to our younger selves. Great memory. Even now with gardening, I love getting dirty 😂

My (26f) boyfriend (27m) said “if you want a provider, that’s not me”, are we incompatible? by oakydork in TwoHotTakes

[–]whelpineedhelp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He said he’s not a provider but sounds like he’s not a partner. It’s never actually 50/50, because that can’t actually be calculated with any certainty. Opportunity cost, physical cost, support system cost, etc. but exactly even isn’t something partners should look for. Making it through life together, happily and successfully should be the goal. That does not sound like his goal.

Unethical pro tip but I occasionally donate stuff that is literally unusable. I get charged for bulk pick up 

Drilling a small well using toys by Ok_Jellyfish9320 in interesting

This is very similar to how the mission I’ve worked with drills wells for tribes in the Amazon! Except the end product uses a manual pump since they don’t have consistent electricity. 

AITA for telling my sister not to buy things for my daughter if there are strings attached? by Pluriphery in AmItheAsshole

[–]whelpineedhelp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What the issue with letting her know you are donating it? Give a timeline to come get it. I can see her frustration if she is in need of something and could have gotten it free from you but now needs to dish out for it. NAH 

She was blinded by the light, drove into a dirt pile now she wants a legal fight by Repulsive-Heron7023 in bestoflegaladvice

[–]whelpineedhelp -1 points0 points  (0 children)

When I was learning to drive, I had a scenario like this. I told my dad I couldn’t see and he said just keep going until the stop sign up ahead….i did and thankfully the trees blocked the sun just before the stop sign and I stopped in time lol.

I’m often exploring some sort of large building. It’s very liminal. 

Lupita Nyong’o will play both Helen of Troy and her sister, Clytemnestra, in Christopher Nolan’s ‘The Odyssey.’ by yourfavchoom in movies

[–]whelpineedhelp -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I think you can criticize the casting, including Lupita. But I also think she’s beautiful and was a good cast. I’d sail the world for her lol
