Nine times out of ten the customer is busy wrangling their items or dealing with their kid. Instead of awkwardly waiting, hand outstretched, I put the change on the counter. I then start prepping for the next customer as we're timed on the whole process.

If your horse is on death's door. And you're crossing a stream. You'd better be prepared to swim.

Humans have scuba dived deeper than 663ft. This isn't even remotely comparable to what the last sub went through. I'm guessing this location was chosen as an easy win for the publicity.

I once saw a lady walking around town with a bag occasionally making symbols on the sidewalk with white powder. My main reaction was how cool it was to have witches active in the neighborhood.

To be honest I never expected the BSA would attempt to reform itself as much as it has. I was in a very homophobic troop, a scoutmaster of mine vented to my grandma that all the queer people ought to be put up against the wall and shot.

Lots of places in the US won't recycle the supposedly "recyclable" plastics, it ends up in a landfill regardless of what you do. I remember all the educational initiatives about the importance of recycling when I was a kid. Turns out it was all just propaganda to make us feel responsible for problems caused by corporations.

Watering plants in the sink then leaving them for a bit can be convenient in some circumstances.

Not gonna lie, if a Furry told me they got arrested by animal control I'd be impressed.
