Oh this one always bothered me so much

songs you cannot listen to anymore because of a true crime case? by Particular_Elk_7021 in TrueCrime

[–]Sleepswitchengaged 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Came here to say the same.

Aside from that, any music playing in the background when I dive into the details of particularly gruesome crimes. One that stands out is "I Am The Highway" by Audioslave. I think I must have had it on repeat while reading a very thorough write up on Dean Corll. It is now impossible for me to not think about the horror of that case.

First time with a refillable vape, this juice tastes like garbage. Are there juices that resemble what I can find in the disposables? by Due-Sheepherder-2915 in Vaping101

[–]Sleepswitchengaged 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I buy mostly from AVAIL; they make their own juices and sell other brands. It’s been hit or miss with the 3rd party brands, but I love many of the AVAIL flavors. My favorite is Mardi Gras. It’s a mixed berry and it’s delicious.

If we could set up a Truman Show scenario where Trump thinks he’s President again and the public send in scenarios for him to deal with, what would you suggest? by vicmackey1981 in AskReddit

This is sarcasm, yes?

Males of Reddit, in what ways has #MeToo changed your behavior or speech? by everything_is_creepy in AskReddit

This may be a terribly unpopular opinion in some circles, but I like this guy’s honesty. Addiction is a hell of burden, isn’t it?

[Virginia] Still haven't received PUA payment for week ending 3/13, anyone else in the same boat? by [deleted] in Unemployment

[–]Sleepswitchengaged 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just adding my own update since this was the latest deposit I’ve had...I normally see my PUA direct deposited between Wed & Thurs using PayPal (who uses Wells Fargo). I just got the notification right before 4am ET that it was finally there. I really hope the wait is ultra brief for anyone still remaining who hasn’t been paid week ending 3/13. In the meantime, stay healthy, friends.

What case detail, no matter how small or odd, disturbed you the most? by thatforensicgirl in TrueCrime

[–]Sleepswitchengaged 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The entire case of 'Girl X'. (The case can be found easily enough by her code name, though her identity was exposed over a decade ago.) Aside from Junko Furuta and a few extremely similar cases already mentioned, the details of this case caused me to pause in my reading over and over again.

What is your answer when at introduction, someone asks the dreaded question, "tell us a fun fact about yourself?" by gs_batta in AskReddit

[–]Sleepswitchengaged 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a toss up between my narcolepsy and my baby brother’s capital murder conviction (charged at 14, sentenced to life w/o parole). Regarding my brother, his case was argued before US Sup. Court, becoming a landmark case in juvenile justice reform.

I’m a real thrill at parties.

[other] Company still hiring even though I was laid off… by dogs0z in Unemployment

[–]Sleepswitchengaged 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man, this is identical to what happened with my mother. And then she had trouble with UI to the point that she gave up. She never saw a penny, and no one understood why.

[virginia] late deposit for week of 9/20? by pewpewgunzz in Unemployment

[–]Sleepswitchengaged 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish, right? No such luck. I’m sure it will be the 30th as VEC says (unless there is a delay?) though I certainly hope they lump sum $1800 instead of initial $900〜 (with the rest as possible incremental payments of $300 or possibly another $900? VEC has terrible communication skills [>_<] .) It seems irrational to pay out in increments when the retroactive timeline (6wks) is already behind us.

[–]Sleepswitchengaged 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if there is a slight delay given it was Sunday when you submitted them and they were technically due the 16th. Mind you, this was through no fault of your own, as VEC didn’t tell anyone until after the 16th, I believe. I got semi lucky and saw a post on here about it, so I was only 2 days late when it could have been worse.

PUA—I worked as an independent contractor {Accupressure Specialist} so, at least I don’t think that has changed from what I can gather reading VEC website, and how they’ve handled me. It was confusing for awhile. And I use PayPal for DD, if that matters. Did you have any issues with prior attestations?

[–]Sleepswitchengaged 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh no, I don’t mean early by reasonable means, haha. I meant by the date VEC lists on their website. At this point, any date before the 30th would be an amazing feat, given Virginia track record.

There are smarter people than myself who explain this better, regarding reg ui vs pua and what to do when you exhaust benefits. I’m not sure how to link to any of them explaining it, but you might have seen others asking about it. If you search by those terms in this sub, it should bring it up for you.

Are you reg or pua?

[–]Sleepswitchengaged 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah, we’re all going down in this together. Our beloved state will see to it. Let’s hope for a miracle and the delay is due to early LWA dispersement.

What's an internet trend you were really glad to see it die ? by AngoPower28 in AskReddit

[–]Sleepswitchengaged 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MySpace...and all the trends that went with it. Remember those Q&A surveys people would post everywhere? I wanted to chuck a refrigerator at them.

People who can fall asleep the moment they go to bed, how does it feel like to be the universe's favourites? by NoAltBruh in AskReddit

[–]Sleepswitchengaged 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dear God, the comments are lit up with sleep deprivation & disorders. We are not supposed to fall asleep so quickly. There is a phased transition into REM sleep (for healthy normal people, I suppose?).
