It kind of sucks that Pawn Stars is fake as frick

I didn’t watch the actual show as a fan, I just watched clips on YouTube because it was cool seeing people sell crazy stuff and Rick being the biggest lowballer in history. Like when he gets offered Sri-Lanka coins but only offers a low price rather than millions. But bro had to do something to make money I guess. But I never caught that the show was absolutely fake as fuck until maybe a couple years ago. And I didn’t find out through articles or videos, I actually found out second-hand. (Not a joke) So I have a friend who lives not that far from Vegas, maybe a half hour drive away. He’s actually been to the Gold & Silver Pawn shop and he’s never actually seen The Old Man, Rick, Corey or Austin “Chumlee” at the store. It’s actually just workers who have actually worked there for a while. Also the store is some big attraction place and if Rick and the crew are there, it’s because they’re shooting. The funniest part is that I always thought Rick was the biggest brained historian since he knew a lot about most of the items that people were selling him but in reality, he gets fed a bunch of information about the item beforehand since the customers who are on the show have to apply and talk about the item to the best of their knowledge and Rick will find out stuff on the side along with what he already knows since he still does know a ton. But it’s 50/50 on the knowledge. I’m not saying he’s fake, he’s a great guy and he’s got a likeable dry sense of humour. (And that funny monkey-shit coffee scene) but it’s all just scripted BS. I hope Rick doesn’t see this. X) At least Chumlee’s candy store is real. Could be an awesome place to go. submitted by /u/Master100017 [link] [comments]

So my wife’s going to a gala tonight — as her client’s “date.”

I’m 44 and my wife is 44. She works on an art advisory committee, so attending galas, events, and client meetings is part of her job. She often meets clients for coffee, lunch, or dinner, and I don’t always know the details and that’s completely normal because it’s part of her work. She’s always professional, transparent about her friendships, and I trust her judgment completely. Recently, she mentioned she’s going to a gala with a friend, S. He’s a wealthy client she met about a year ago, and they became friends professionally. She introduced me to him once, and he seems like a genuinely good person. He invited her as his “date” to this gala, and my wife said it’s fine. I did ask her though, if she’s actually going as a “date,” and she just laughed and said, “Date doesn’t always mean romantic.” She said it’s important for her she could get networking and meet new people. Then she smiled and said, “If I get into this gala next time, I won’t need to take that man with me, I’ll take you...

The time I quit my job mid shift and walked out

Eight years ago I was working a customer service job that already had me burned out but one day my boss screamed at me in front of customers over something that wasn’t even my fault. Something in me just snapped. I took off my apron handed it to him and said “I’m done” Then I walked straight out the door and never looked back. Didn’t even go back for my final paycheck. It sounds impulsive but it was one of the most freeing empowering things I’ve ever done. Up until that moment I thought I had to just take it and that quitting mid shift was “unprofessional” But honestly that day taught me there’s a line between being dedicated and being disrespected. I was playing apex earlier and thought about how that single decision changed my whole mindset about self worth. It’s wild how one moment of courage can stick with you for nearly a decade. Still one of the best choices I’ve ever made.

I made my breast reconstruction surgeon cry with laughter

After the long process of a double mastectomy, I finally got my permanent breast implants in, and was very happy with them. As a bonus, I discovered that since they were put directly on top of my chest muscles, I could do a neat trick! I can “twerk” my breasts one at a time or together, making them dance quite vigorously! I went for my checkup and said, Hey Doc, look what I can do now…and showed off their bouncy dancing skills. He literally dropped his chart and bent over laughing until tears came into his eyes. He said I was the first patient to do that to him, and he couldn’t stop laughing the rest of the visit. I encourage other patients of this type of surgery to try it, it’s quite fun and entertaining. Edit: thanks for the kind comments and award, guess I can say I won an award for bouncing my boobies now. Note: for those who say video or it didn't happen, I get it, but I'm not going to post my boobs all over the internet!
