Little cool things that happened to you today

[tommy525]

Wonder if there would be some little cool stories just focused on little cool things that happened to you today.

For me today I went to a car wash not to wash my car but to put a dollar in the vacuum cleaner and vacuum the inside of my car

I was a bit miffed when the dang machine didn’t register the first quarter I put in

So I put in another and it was obvious the machine is just eating my money

I have been cheated

So I used the machine on the other side of my car

Uneventful,spent 4 quarters and vacuumed my car . Then I noticed someone left a quart of oil at the machine I abandoned

Noticed it was a quart of expensive oil. Castrol Edge costs bout ten bucks
I used this at a quick oil change place as my car was due for its every 5000 mile oil change
50
Dollars later all done

Turns out there was an unopened car of beer next to the quart of oil
Which I’m drinking at home now
Now bad for wasting 50 cents
But picking up a quart of oil and a can of beer

If it’s your quart of oil you left behind and your can of beer sorry name the grade of oil and the brand of beer and come see me personally I will pay you back

Committing theft is never cool.

It’s only 10am in Taiwan. You’ll need to give me some time for something cool to happen.

[tommy525]

It’s not theft tf the items are abandoned

Leaving your oil and a can of beer unescorted in a public place is abandoning the items

Besides I feel I paid 50 cents for the two items
The machine ate My Money and karma gave me the items in return

It’s not theft if it’s beer.

Convicted of theft for picking up abandoned OBike

So I had a bunch of abandoned O Bikes around my house, basically rusted out junk, and at first I didn’t know about the OBike issue so I attempted to use the service as normal. When I tried to scan the QR code it pointed to a website that didn’t work. So I did some searching and it turns out the company had gone bust. So I wrongly assumed that since the company is bust and that these are abandoned I could just go use it. So I took a grinder and cut the locking unit off and rode around town with i…

Don’t worry Tommy, we’ll bring oranges to your cell.

[tommy525]

Yeah don’t pick up any bikes
I do like oranges

Damn good little cool things.

I was going to talk about my experience meeting an Aboriginal girl yesterday. But it can’t compare to oil and beer.

Have you made reasonable steps to locate the owner and confirm that the items are abandoned? If not…

[tommy525]

I did I looked around and nobody was around
And the vacuum cleaning section is where people dump unwanted stuff from their cars. It’s out next to a large garbage container

So reasonable search attempted and failed

I did I looked around and nobody was around

“Does anyone around here own this car? Hello? Well, it’s clearly abandoned, I guess! Imma call dibs on that!”

This thread has now become the written legacy of tommy525’s slow descent into a life of crime.

Property is theft. Beer is awesome.

Ahhh. I would imagine your story is too oil soaked for a PG audience and I’m sure beer was involved as well

[BiggusDickus]

Why would anyone abandon a beer? Tommy525, your excuse is weak as piss. You took another man’s beer. Fact!

It’s ok I did him a favor probably as he may have had one too many already to abandon a beer. Must be a first time a man abandoned a beer

Yes, something doesn’t seem right here. I think maybe you were filmed as a kind of social experiment. I hope the swiping of the oil and beer doesn’t end up trending.

As I walked sleepily towards the MET, I felt someone tugging my hand. I look down and it us the happy face of my neighbors’ thou, greeting me happily. Hello to you too.

Pay It Forward. Obviously you should leave a beer for someone else somewhere else they are not expecting it. But will make them happy.

I finished work earlier and was gagging for a beer. Found a tiny Family Mart that only seemed to stock Heineken and Taiwan beer. Blugh! Then I noticed, hidden in the corner, some cans of Peroni. Beer orgasm!

I think the gods took pity on me after having to spend 5 hours testing teenagers who only answer every question with a one word answer.

i was looking at a shop display of small heaters, which i was not at all interested in buying. i just wanted to switch them on because i was cold because it looked warmer outside than it actually was so i didn’t wear enough.

one of the staff came over, was very friendly and talked me into buying one of them. which was cool because my usual experience of staff here ranges from ‘not helpful’, ‘useless’ and ‘looking at phone’
