What's the coolest thing you found while metal detecting?

Jump

  • Surprisingly, yes. The holy grail of magnet fishing enthusiasts are weapons (that are then usually turned over to police).

    Jump

  • I haven't tried metal detecting, but we went magnet fishing once. Caught lots of fish hooks and one mostly rusted but still intact shock absorber.

    • What movie did you watch as I kid which you shouldn't have?

    Jump

  • Dad let me watch Poltergeist when I was 6 and Mom let me watch The Shining when I was 7. I was also 7 when the Thriller video came out, and I think that scared me more.

    • Series: What are your ADHD Tools of Thumb?

    Jump

  • They already have our email addresses and our mobile numbers. They should be sending us calendar invites, not some scrap of cardstock I'm gonna lose. My therapist has a system that sends text reminders. Why is my doctor not up to speed.

  • The tightest end dump pile is still a fat line.

    This is an amusing sentence out of context.

  • Maybe it wanted to turn around. Busch Gardens is just 40 miles back.

    • Whoopsiedoodle!

    Jump

  • A very excellent point. I should have realized.

    • Whoopsiedoodle!

    Jump

  • He might not have been fully up to speed yet. This sign is just past a weigh station (I've driven this stretch many, many times), and VDOT said he had just gone through the station. Though that doesn't answer why the bed was up. Could have bumped the switch?

    :::Edit to strike through this nonsense:::I am leaning toward the other explanation of drive shaft breaking and pole vaulting the trailer into the sign.

    Jump

  • If that's the case, why did they arrest the driver on reckless driving? Sounds like pure accident. Even if it was negligent maintenance, that's not the driver's fault, that's on the trailer owner. Right? (IANACDL 😄)

    • Besides money or valuables, what items or info would you be pleasantly surprised to find?

    Jump

  • To someone with ADHD, this is like telling them to just pull ya'self up by yer bootstraps. 🙃

  • On a scale from 1 to 10, that trailer was at a Snoop Dogg.

    • You can translate the wookies in lego star wars if you're willing to solve a substitution cypher.

    Jump

  • You did it all for the wookie, the wookie, the wookie...

    • A bit fucked up, isn't it?

    Jump

  • I did alright for a while. Changing up clients worked when I started to get bored.

    It's not going so great now. Considering a career change but also not wanting to throw away years of experience and a professional license. But yeah, I'm at "this is all bullshit and I don't wanna".

    Jump

  • My motivation

    • Can anyone name some mysteries in stories where the answer ended up delivering and was better than the mystery itself?

    Jump

  • When it was first released, The Sixth Sense ending blew everyones' minds.

    Usual Suspects and Se7en as well.

    • Ok so coffee is made from coffee beans. And beans are also made from beans. Why is nobody making, like, black bean coffee?

    Jump

  • Anything is edible. Once.

    • Have you ever cosplayed before? Can you tell us about any?

    Jump

  • I made a Bespin Leia outfit to wear to the opening night of Phantom Menace. On the way to the theater, I got pulled over. The cop was very weirded out by me. I did not get lucky with just a warning.

    • YSK: About The Sad bastard Cookbook, when time, energy, money, or skill is preventing someone from cooking their own meals!

    Jump

  • Bertolli chicken parm and some garlic Texas toast is almost downright fancy, but it's 100% dump, heat, eat.

    • People of lemmy, what was your “oh crap” moment?

    Jump

  • I have had the train thing happen to me. There were no warning lights where the road crossed over. Fortunately it was a coal train going very slowly. Scared the living daylights out of me. It's been 30 years since that happened and I'm still neurotic about railroad crossings with poor visibility.

    • What's a long standing personal or family mystery that occupies your mind?

    Jump

  • A picture of my grandfather standing next to a woman, taken before he met my grandmother, and she is holding a baby. It didn't surface until after grandpa's funeral. It was taken 500 miles away from where my family lives. I live in that other city now. I wonder if I've met my half aunt or uncle randomly in passing?
