I told my wife I have to keep adding oil to our truck on this road trip so she asked how much I’ve added and I said I don’t know, it’s a quart low every time I check so she said it sounds like we’re just feeding oil to the trans-Canada highway and then my mechanic started crying Related

@SouthwestAir Your points transfer process is ridiculous. I transferred points from my credit card and rather than send them correctly to my wife's Southwest account we linked, you created a new account in my name to send the points to, and now I can't access them because I never made such an account, so it has no password nor email set for it.

Heartbroken to hear my friend Sir Billy Boston has died. Billy was one of the greatest Rugby League players of all time but also one of the kindest and most down-to-earth people you could ever wish to meet. He always had time for people and gave so much to back to his adopted home, Wigan. I will miss him greatly and am thinking today of Billy’s family, still grieving the recent loss of his beloved wife Joan. A giant of a man in every way. Thank you, Billy, and rest in peace. Related

One thing that I notice that my wife does and that works well when teaching our 8-yr-old certain things, is that she’ll talk to me when we’re all in the same room, and then she’ll say, “One thing I didn’t really understand when I was young…” and you can just feel the 8-year-old turning her entire being toward us, to try to figure out what secret knowledge we adults are trading in.

Nothing matches. Show everything
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
