I supervised visitations between children and their non-custodial parents!! AMA!! | I can say anything but names (and quite frankly, I've tried to put most of them out of my mind anyway). I had some pretty scary/crazy experiences with insane/high people. I had to quit though, I couldn't handle seeing those kids every day and becoming attached and them making them go into their visit. |

Hey, chemists of reddit! What's the best way to concentrate 3% hydrogen peroxide into 5% or 10%? | So, I have this 32 oz. bottle of peroxide at 3%. I really could use something a little stronger, but ordering it from the internet is a little pricy.

What's this I hear about the local tv stations being closed? | Just heard a water cooler rumor that ABC/FOX/etc are doing away with the local TV station affiliates.

This has to be false, surely? |
Hey Reddit: What are your best Customer Service Horror Stories? | Mine is literally still going on, but it's pretty aggravating. I have an Asus 1000HA netbook, and it's been my best friend for about 8 months.

DAE feel like their childhood psychologically messed them up? | When I was young, I was pretty normal. That's what I'm trying to be now, normal.

Hey Reddit, how are you preparing your taxes this year? | I'm trying to figure out how to get my taxes together this year and am wondering if there is a better way to do this.

Teabagger reasoning: The Constitution is strictly a list of limitations on government...But the department of education and the fed aren't specifically enumerated so they're unconstitutional! | They criticize the existence of every federal department on the grounds that they're not specifically enumerated in the constitution and then, without blinking, in the same sentence, will declare the constitution to be nothing but a list of limitations on government.
It's like having your cake and eating it too. |
I'm having problems with my mocha pot, anybody care to help? | I've had it for almost three years, and in the last two weeks it started doing weird stuff.

Hey reddit, received this from my son thought you might enjoy | Usually I can't stomach gory photos or sickening violence captured on film but this was worth the exception for me.
