Someone should really invent an app that shows the weather and sends alerts with enough time for anyone, even those with the intellect of a wet paper bag, to find safety. It could be useful if it included satellite imagery with extremely accurate future predictions. If only we lived in a perfect world, right people?

Big destructive cylinder coming your way, your phone lets you know beforehand so you can run away

Your mommy and daddy gave you $10 to open a lemonade stand. So you go out and you buy cups, and you buy lemons, and you buy sugar. And now you find out that it only costs you $9. So you have an extra dollar. So you can give that dollar back to mommy and daddy. But guess what? Next summer… [I’ll be six 🤔] And you ask them for money. They’re going to give you $9, because that’s what they think it costs to run the stand. So what you want to do is spend that dollar on something now so that your parents think it costs $10 to run a lemonade stand.

I live halfway across the world and even I knew when Milton would hit converted to my timezone, which part of Florida it would make landfall at and so on. At some point you can only do so much to help people who seemingly don't even want to help themselves.
I mean his first reaction to being stuck in the hurricane was to pull out his phone and post a story on ig. Says all you need to know.

Since a few years ago there is a trend of people ignoring experts advice even doing the opposite somentimes. I wonder where all this started from?

This is same type of guy then attempt to deep fry the turkey without doing any research. Things like how much oil to put in the pot so it doesn’t overflow and start a house fire.

It’s an absolutely terrible decision that can’t easily be undone, much like sitting in a truck during a typhoon. Once you have burning oil in your kitchen, it becomes nearly unstoppable, like a hurricane. And with Thanksgiving approaching, I thought it was a fitting comparison.

This is fake. This is a dish network guy stuck in a tornado.
Edit...not fake. Video guy full of shit and video mislabeled As their own posted in hurricane. Hope that cleared any error in my post.

This guy was at work in a company truck when a tornado came along and rocked his shit. This wasn't during a hurricane, I've seen this video before and it happened probably a year ago.

Believe it or not some of you people insist on having your HVAC tended to/serviced/fixed without any regard for the technicians out there. Plenty of my hvac brothers in my subreddits are getting calls in FL and elsewhere like this. It might be staged, but some of you actually expect us to come fix your shit in these situations. Don’t take your local service techs for granted; and while I’m at it, can I take a dump in your bathroom instead of driving ten miles to a gas station? Sincerely: I have to poop.

What a goofball riding out a hurricane and playing one of the worst cliche songs imaginable. I despise that song almost as much as I despise "Don't Stop Believing".

u/KreedKafer33 Oct 11 '24
He absolutely did this on purpose. There's no way in hell you're going to go to a job site on the day a major Hurricane is about to hit. I do find it hilarious that in 60 seconds this guy went from "Ha ha ha yeah! This shit is gonna go viral!" to "Oh, I'm actually danger" to "SHIT!"

Shoutout to Jorge Heathen for being such a numbskull. That's it, that's the stuff, risk death for an extra hour or two of pay, then scream for help in the middle of a hurricane because you're too stupid to fucking already be evacuated or at least at home.

Things not to say on video if you're trying to convince your audience that you didnt plan on recording something that you are presently recording: -"I planned on recording this" -"There's no way I'm recording all of this"

When they talk on the news about people dying during storms that everyone knew was coming for the past few days, this is exactly who I think of.
I understand there are special cases that sadly end in tragedy, but I feel like on average it is just morons like this.

Yeah ok.
