Charlie Kirk sign removed from Tenn. highway after veterans object (r/news)

• AdditionalBudget2142: History won’t be kind to him and that’s a good thing.
• ratchclank: He was a podcaster. He had done nothing in life to deserve a memorial. 🙄
• Successful-Medicine9: The article doesn’t say they were mad about the name, just that the highway was already named to memorialize Vietnam war vets and they changed it without asking. They’re gonna memorialize Kirk on a different road now. Hopefully the attention this garnered will cancel it altogether.

5 dead in attempt to save a struggling swimmer in an Ohio river, sheriff says (r/news)

• JimHeckdiver: One of the first things I was taught when I took an advanced swimming class, was that I was not a lifeguard, and that I’d be more likely to drown than to affect a rescue.
• FaceMcShootie: A struggling swimmer only fights against the water. A rescuer fights both.
• Kopav: I grew up in that area (Dublin), swam in HS and college and was a trained lifeguard. I wouldn’t consider swimming in that river North of the dam. There are plenty of pools, ponds, lakes, streams or even other parts of the river that are much safer for swimming.

What’s a movie cliche that happened to you in real life, even though they “never happen in real life”? (r/AskReddit)

• CoffeeExtraCream: In college I (male) lived in an apartment my sophomore year. The layout was weird and each floor had 2 apartments. The apartment across the hall from us we noticed was a bunch of girls moving in. So we joked amongst ourselves that we should go over and ask to borrow a cup of sugar to meet them. Almost immediately after we made the joke we hear a knock on our door and it was our neighbors from across the hall asking to borrow a cup of sugar.
• NotTheGreenestThumb: Inherited money from a relative none of us ever heard of before.
• Commander_Cyclops: More of a general comedy cliche, but I once slipped on a banana peel on a public sidewalk. Fell backwards and landed right on my ass, just like Curly.

What is the most disturbing or unhinged Reddit post you’ve ever read that still lives in your head rent-free? (r/AskReddit)

• glittergooch: The one where the woman was nearly about to give birth, but was so stressed out becuase her husbands mom died during child birth. His dad was basically preparing him to have to raise his baby alone because he was so sure his daughter in law would die like his wife. I think she deleted her post and never gave an update. I think about her all the time.
• UnluckyAssist9416: Famous Sub Sandwich story where 1 person decided to finish off half of a 6 foot sub at a party.
• PowerfulBrandon: The post where a guy was having dinner with his girlfriends parents for the first time, and he thought it would be a funny joke to pretend like he’d never seen a potato before. I couldn’t stop laughing the first time I read that one

What situation as a child did you only realize you were in danger as an adult? (r/AskReddit)

• Secretlyagummybear: I loved seeing snakes on tv as a little girl, and my favorite character in Kung Fu Panda was Viper, so when I learned snakes like to sometimes nest or burrow in holes, I took a cookie sheet out into the backyard and put it next to a big hole. Sure enough, the pan heated under the sun and snakes came to rest on it, where i would then puck them up and play with them. My mother put a quick end to that.
• dkrbst: Letting the dads drive me home after I baby sat. I’m sure many were drunk.
• CuntForSpades: I was 5 years old, waiting by myself for the bus to school (my bus stop was right outside my daycare lady’s house). An elderly woman walked by, but stopped when she noticed me and insisted that I help her find her dog. She kept telling me it wouldn’t take that long and that I wouldn’t miss the bus. I’m so glad that I was shy and afraid of dogs back then. I refused to go with her and she hurried away when my bus pulled up.
