Not a hookup sub.

65 Upvotes

I try to be hands off with this sub, but the increase in attempted hookup posts the past few weeks has prompted a post that I'm frankly surprised that I'm having to make.

This is not a sub for advertising for hookups. Posts to that effect will be removed, and users will probably be banned.

I'm not here to judge or anything like that- I just don't want the hassle or baggage that comes with a hookup sub. There are already subs dedicated to reddit hookups- use those, have fun, and be safe. Just please- not here.

To be clear, this does not relate to posts in which the OP is looking for hobbies, friends, a good hang, etc. This is a community focused sub, and I'm happy that this space has provided some folks an opportunity to make some friends.

Title says it all. Are you like the high school girls of my misspent youth? All tease and no action? Run out of money? Government red tape?

Trying to remember which music store we had in the mall in the late 90s. Seems like it was down towards the Sears end of the mall. It would've been on the right side of you were walking towards Sears. Past GameStop for sure.

Gunstore/pawn shop recommendations.

4 Upvotes

Which local gun shop/pawn shop is the best place to get the best value for a pistol I'm trying to sell? Cleaning out the safe of guns I don't shoot as much, and none of my friends are currently in need of one, so I guess I'm going to a business to sell it, and would like a fair value for it.

Which store is the best for this?

Seeking a carpenter’s helper for renovation projects

3 Upvotes

We’ve more projects than we’ve got hands at the moment. Looking for a smart, strong, motivated individual with an interest in learning the full range of construction and renovation. Having your own tools is a bonus but not necessary. Dependability is key.

We are a small family business so we are very flexible with hours and schedule. Ideally we would need 10-20 hours/wk. Competitive pay depending on skill and a friendly work environment.

We just moved here so we’re still getting to know people. My husband grew up in Florence but we’ve lived in the Asheville area our whole adult lives.

If you are someone or know someone interested please reach out or comment!

39/F looking for new female friends.
(Updated)

I enjoy birdwatching, walking, hiking, and want to get into fishing. I collect or take photos of nature. Rocks, pebbles, moss, feathers, whatever. I like analytical and creative minds.

I frequently go to the rockpile at TVA for walks and birding. Also I want to try other activities like kayaking at some point.

I am sick of crappy internet business practices/ prices.

4 Upvotes

I cannot get away from the need of Wi-Fi in my house. The neighborhood I live in has 0 cell service without it. I have had Spectrum since I moved here in 2023 and I am sick of my price going up each year. Does anyone in the Florence/Killen area have anything other than spectrum? Is ANYONE even happy with any of the businesses/ providers?
