I love learning new things and especially about oddities and ancient things from prehistoric onward. Also love space, gaming, creating music, life, and being optimistic. Glad to have this app. I am not a lazy panda, for I love letting others know about me. 47 years old with the heart and soul of a 20 something. Love investing in stocks despite being a very low wage earner. Gotta make ones money work for you the best you can, after all.

@Touch Connors: I can't even IMAGINE being in that situation. Still concious, feeling "perfectly fine" but finding out I'll die soon as I'm "freed". Jesus. I'd rather have a Dr tell me I have 3 months so I can get used to it or die on impact. God, what does a person think in that situation? How do you come to terms and accept you're about to die even though you "feel fine" and have 100% awareness. What a literal hell of one's final minutes.

I live about two hours away from the Biltmore Estate too and highly recommend a visit. The library is gorgeous - plan on spending a huge chunk of time there if you can (although you can't touch anything, sadly, lol) - but the grounds are amazing, too. A Christmas visit would be well worth it except for road conditions in the area.

A neighbor recently lost his dad. I threw on a white shirt and tie to pay my respects at the viewing. When I went in, I was the only person in a tie. Most of the family thought I worked at the funeral home.

I suspect Kathryn Baylis owns an Airbnb,she's trying to hard to defend those fees and practices. We stayed at an Airbnb last summer and I can say for a fact a small % of what's in Kathyrn list was done before we arrived ....

You actually leave your dirty dishes behind? We stay in hotels and AirBnBs, both. They serve different purpose. Apartment with a kitchen and living room is better for a longer stay. I don't see a problem with doing my own dishes. Hotel is good for one - two nights.

33 Folks Online Are Roasting Airbnb Hosts For Having The Most Ridiculous Requirements

There aren’t dishes and food trash in hotels. If you stay in a summer rental, condo, etc you clean up after yourself. I was always raised leave a place better than when you got there, dunno how you were. And I gave you one back King Potus. Look at yourselves.

I wish I had known about AirBnB before my trip to England & Scotland. Way cheaper & more benefits vs a hotel with minimal amenities.

I believe in all states, a residence is considered uninhabitable without hot water or heat, but AC is not required.

This store had things only the guy running it could get for you. It was mostly stuff that was on high shelves, ammo, guns, knives, and watches. He still had and sold pocket watches. He also did have some folks that ran tabs paying once a month but they were old timers that had lived there their whole lives. The store shut down some ten years after we moved there. Seeing how it affected the town after closing was the saddest part. The old folks would hang around there for half a day sometimes doing the normal gossiping and s**t talking. If you ever wanted to know anything about anyone or anything else it was the place to go. The family of the guy that owned it waited several years before auctioning off what was left in the store and there was allot of it. Most antiques but some rare stuff too. He had pictures of the town when it was still all dirt and no one owned a car. To this day I miss that old store and the moody old man that ran it.

Are you serious? $150 cleaning fee means that the service will make it all bling bling. But it is nice to know that you pay $150 for plumbing guy and you will do all by yourself. Read once again what you wrote and laught at yourself…

Sorry, but when I am on vacation it’s not to clean somebody else’s house. End of story.

33 Folks Online Are Roasting Airbnb Hosts For Having The Most Ridiculous Requirements

If I am paying a 'cleaning fee' i don't want to take out the trash and do the dishes. And hotels are not more expensive. 6 friends and I recently weant wine tasting and were gone for 2 nights. It was $400 cheaper to get 2 hotel suites, in a hotel that had a hot tub, pool, room service, and we didn't have to clean anything, than to get an AirB&B. I think they once were a better deal, but not really anymore!

A child having to raise a child all on her own, and on the street. How anyone could allow small children to be put out to fend for themselves horrifies me. You have to know living on the street was JUST as dangerous back then as it is now. Imagine how it was for a child. Most orphanages were no better, many were horrible places where children were exploited, abused, murdered, neglected, starved. Too many old orphanage buildings have loads of marked, and unmarked, graves on their properties. Whenever I think of it, I end up filled with a disturbing combination of rage, a frustrated wish to go back in time and both stop it and get some justice from the flesh of the abusers——as well as overwhelming sorrow and a fervent wish that I could just hug and adopt them all myself. Whenever children are abused and die, each one is a death of so much promise and possibility. I always wonder which one of them could’ve been the person to do any number of wonderful things. The first to abolish war, the first to cure any number of incurable diseases (incurable then and now), the first woman to graduate from Harvard and succeed in the man’s world that existed back then, the painter of wonderful images, an early filmmaker or actor, and a multitude of other people working together to make sure their children had easier lives than their parents. But they died long before they could even plan any of that. To me, that deprived the world of their personalities, talents, intellect, and accomplishments. What a waste.

I never leave a mess behind anywhere I go, but I feel that if a cleaning fee is included, then there shouldn't be an expectation for guests to do chores. Messy guests is a risk you take on when renting out.

33 Folks Online Are Roasting Airbnb Hosts For Having The Most Ridiculous Requirements

ABNB is not a hotel. You take care of your own trash and dishes the same way you do when renting a summer cottage for a couple of weeks. If the prices are same to a hotel though, I of course would prefer an hotel too.

My Journey Of Fighting For The Right To Pass Away Voluntarily

And the place as well. To be surrounded by loved ones, having a going away party a few days /week(s) prior to the chosen day, so loved ones and friends can see you and share their love & how you impacted them... It's getting your own wake but hearing the love and giving the love back in real time. No one gets that with a usual death. "I wish loved one could see how they impacted & hear what everyone says about them." Death w Dignity allows that. AND you choose where you die (within reason). On a cliff by an ocean? Perfect. Beautiful.

My Journey Of Fighting For The Right To Pass Away Voluntarily

Death with Dignity NEEDS to be world wide. It's inhumane to let our loved ones suffer brutally. Or waiting to die in a hospital. We put our beloved pets to sleep so they don't suffer prolongly. Yet it's "Okay" to let our human loved ones suffer more and more til they die. Jesus. That's not right. It's actually selfish on HUGE levels. "You must suffer and we do feel bad for you, parent/sibling, but we don't want you to die and leave us. But we're sorry you're suffering so violently and that it'll get worse. But we need you here with us." Not. Cool. Death with Dignity NEEDS to be 100% allowed in every country. On every millimeter of this planet.

No no no no no. I was riding with friends when one had an accident. First on scene were volunteer rescue squad. Tried to remove his helmet without unstrapping it first. He had a serious neck injury. We intervened. Professional EMTs got there and strapped him to a board, didn't remove his helmet until they'd somehow maneuvered a neck brace onto him. NEVER try to remove a helmet unless you're a professional EMT.

A friend of mine trained as a first responder and was told that if he is attending a motorbike accident, do not remove the helmet. Not only does it contain any injuries but can keep the neck/spine restrained to prevent further spinal injury

It's quite common in farming and subway accidents for a person to be cut in half and then held in place by grain/subway. They're fully alive and conscious and once the grain/subway is moved, they die. Literally nothing you could do to save them, even if you had the world's best surgery team right on-site. So the same thing happening with the skull seems plausible.

“Medical Workers Of Bored Panda, What’s The Weirdest Thing A Patient Has Ever Come In With?” (40 Stories)

Sorry, but his friend was dead the moment he hit the tree. The injury you describe, being so instantly lethal when he removed the helmet, was so extreme that it was only a matter of maybe a couple of minutes before he would have expired in any case..

A friend of my dad died when they made a motorcycle tour. That friend's brakes were broken. He flew out of a curve, head first into a tree. He was wearing a helmet, but of course still had a headache. Dad told him to take off his helmet to check for injuries. As the friend takes off the helmet, the skull pops open and the friend falls over dead. The helmet had held his cracked skull together. That was almost 40 years ago, Dad only got to talk about it recently. Even today he can't forgive himself for telling his buddy to take off his helmet. He could live.
