Isambard_PrinceYou need to throw it. The pin going back in won't stop it from exploding.Jan 12 00:02
Isambard_PrinceMinceR, A father and son in Illinois a few years ago were cleaning out the attic of the grandfather's house. He had been in Korea.Jan 12 00:03
Isambard_PrinceAnd he took a live grenade back and put it in the attic as a war trophy.Jan 12 00:03
Isambard_PrinceSomeone removed the pin and it exploded and killed the father and son.Jan 12 00:03
Isambard_PrinceYou have to watch out for that. It happens sometimes.Jan 12 00:04
MinceRi knowJan 12 00:04
Isambard_PrinceWhy would you start fucking around with an old grenade that someone left in an attic?Jan 12 00:04
Isambard_PrinceYou should back away and go call the police.Jan 12 00:04
Isambard_PrinceThey have a bomb squad that knows how to handle this.Jan 12 00:04

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-Grenade In Wilmington House: Police Reveal How It Happened | Channahon, IL PatchJan 12 00:05
Isambard_PrinceI remembered it wrong.Jan 12 00:05
Isambard_PrinceThe one in Illinois didn't kill anyone.Jan 12 00:05
Isambard_PrinceThe one in Indiana did.Jan 12 00:05
Isambard_PrinceAnd it said the father in Indiana died but the son was injured.Jan 12 00:06
Isambard_Prince"While the Wilmington grenade incident was resolved safely, a similar event ended in tragedy in nearby Indiana two years ago. In that incident, a family was going through a grandfather's belongings when they happened across a grenade and someone pulled the pin, causing it to detonate, police said at the time. A 47-year-old father was killed, while his children, ages 15 and 18, suffered shrapnel injuries."Jan 12 00:06
Isambard_PrinceMinceR, I was watching a movie when I was a kid. Someone yelled in Spanish "Una granada!"Jan 12 00:08
Isambard_PrinceThen the guy throws another one after that one exploded and I shouted "Unada granada!"Jan 12 00:08
Isambard_PrinceAnd my dad went by laughing.Jan 12 00:08
MinceR:)Jan 12 00:08
MinceRreminds me of Brutal WolfensteinJan 12 00:09
Isambard_PrinceThen there was a TV show where the guy had spontaneously combusted and I said "Nice shoes!".Jan 12 00:10
Isambard_Prince(It was all that was left.)Jan 12 00:11
MinceR:>Jan 12 00:11
MinceRlike a cyberdemonJan 12 00:11
Isambard_PrinceMinceR, So in March and April I can start Early Excluding the credit cards that got charged off.Jan 12 00:16
Isambard_PrinceI'm excited.Jan 12 00:16
Isambard_PrinceAt least on one bureau you can do these 6 months before they're set to fall off.Jan 12 00:16
Isambard_PrinceThe other bureaus might let you, but are less generous.Jan 12 00:16
Isambard_PrinceThe one I want to do the EEs on first is the one that landlords look at though.Jan 12 00:17
Isambard_PrinceMinceR, A government agency told me they no longer accept PO Boxes because of fraud concerns a few years ago.Jan 12 00:41
Isambard_PrinceSo I typed in the street address format and they took it.Jan 12 00:42
MinceR:>Jan 12 00:42
Isambard_PrinceI haven't lived at an apartment where someone WASN'T stealing mail in over 10 years.Jan 12 00:42
Isambard_PrinceMinceR, I worked out a bug out plan.Jan 12 00:43
Isambard_PrinceFor when I have to move.Jan 12 00:43
Isambard_PrinceSomeone said they'd rent me a room real cheap so I just have to decide when I want to move.Jan 12 00:44
Isambard_PrinceThere's really no danger of the room going away because it's something they said they'd hold for me.Jan 12 00:44
Isambard_PrinceThey don't want to rent it to some random person who could turn out to be a total freak.Jan 12 00:44
Isambard_PrinceMinceR, So something funny.Jan 12 00:47
Isambard_PrinceI pay for goodrx gold which is a pharmacy discount program for people.Jan 12 00:48
Isambard_PrinceThey let me put family members on it. But really that can be anyone since the name on the prescription just has to match what's on the card.Jan 12 00:48
Isambard_PrinceThe vet called in a prescription for a human medicine, but it's for my cat, but it went to the grocery store pharmacy.Jan 12 00:49
Isambard_PrinceAnd the prescription is for "Leeloo Cat".Jan 12 00:49
MinceR:)Jan 12 00:49
Isambard_PrinceSo I added "Leeloo Cat" to my GoodRX Gold card and filled the cat prescription at the negotiated price.Jan 12 00:49
Isambard_PrinceWhich was $16.45 instead of the cash price of $68.Jan 12 00:49
MinceRallegedly elsewhere pets (or at least cats) would receive their human caretaker's last nameJan 12 00:49
Isambard_PrinceMinceR, Apparently as long as the card says Leeloo Cat and so does the medicine, it works.Jan 12 00:50
MinceR:>Jan 12 00:50
Isambard_PrinceThe pharmacist chuckled.Jan 12 00:52
Isambard_PrinceOh good, the rest of my merino wool socks arrived.Jan 12 00:52
Isambard_PrinceI've been wearing the same socks for 4 days.Jan 12 00:52
Isambard_PrinceThey have antibacterial properties, so they don't get stinky.Jan 12 00:52
Isambard_PrinceThe podiatrist told me that you could wear the same pair for 3-4 days.Jan 12 00:53

Isambard_PrinceMinceR, These socks apparently have a lifetime warranty. No questions asked. They don't even ask for the sales receipt.Jan 12 01:09
Isambard_PrinceIf they get holes in them you mail them back and they send you a code for a free pair from their website.Jan 12 01:09
Isambard_PrinceYou have to pay to mail them though so I've been told it's best to wait until you have lots of them that have a hole in them then send them a bag of socks with holes.Jan 12 01:11

schestowitz[TR2]"In the 1920s, Fuller experimented with polyphasic sleep, which he called Dymaxion sleep. Inspired by the sleep habits of animals such as dogs and cats,[89]: 133  Fuller worked until he was tired, and then slept short naps. This generally resulted in Fuller sleeping 30-minute naps every 6 hours.[84]: 160  This allowed him "twenty-two thinking hours a day", which aided his work productivity.[84]: 160  Fuller reportedly Jan 12 08:20
schestowitz[TR2]kept this Dymaxion sleep habit for two years, before quitting the routine because it conflicted with his business associates' sleep habits.[90] Despite no longer personally partaking in the habit, in 1943 Fuller suggested Dymaxion sleep as a strategy that the United States could adopt to win World War II.[90]Jan 12 08:20
schestowitz[TR2]Despite only practicing true polyphasic sleep for a period during the 1920s, Fuller was known for his stamina throughout his life. He was described as "tireless"[91]: 53  by Barry Farrell in Life magazine, who noted that Fuller stayed up all night replying to mail during Farrell's 1970 trip to Bear Island.[91]: 55  In his seventies, Fuller generally slept for 5–8 hours per night.[84]: 160 "Jan 12 08:20
