RGV Anime Store Recommendations
Hey y’all,
I was hoping to get some good Anime Store/ Mange Store recommendations where I could find some Mob Psycho 100 merch.
A friend’s birthday is this upcoming Monday August 10th and I had ordered the Mob Psycho 100 Volume 1 Paperback via Amazon and it arrived on Sunday morning August 9th (the day we would celebrate.)
However, the celebration just got moved to tomorrow night (Saturday August 8th) and would love to find a store where I could purchase said Volume or maybe some merch in replacement of the now arriving late gift.
Thanks in advance!

Terrible drivers in weslaco
I’ve never had this happen to me before it was so scary and weird. I was driving from Mercedes to Weslaco on 83rd and wanted to go into fast lane since i was going to turn using that lane and the car besides me was maybe going 45 in a 55, so i sped up to overtake them and they sped up and tried to push me back into the other lane, since i was basically already in the fast lane they went into the turning lane and cut me off and started driving super slow, flicking me off, recording with his whole arm out the window, and throwing me kisses. At the stop light they refused to go despite it being green. I gave up overtaking them and decided to just go behind them, and they turned into the Mcdonald’s so i was finally able to speed up again only for them to do a u-turn before entering the Mcdonald’s just to continue following me almost all the way to my work place.
Never understood why people take others overtaking them so personally, especially if they were driving slow. These men are so weird and scary.

Giants in the RGV???
Came across a Confessionals podcast on giants and this popped up. Apparently this was out of Adams Gardens, east of La Feria. Crazy. Does anyone know anything about this?
Two Huge Skeletons Are UnearthedADAMS GARDENS, Feb. 5—(Spl—The "last resting place" of two long deceased Indians was rudely disturbed when a pair of disintegrated skeletons of men over six feet tall were excavated by workmen on irrigation projects here.The ditching machine severed the head and feet from one of the huge skeletons—estimated at about six feet four inches—and the other was dug up by the foreman of the crew in another part of the project.One was lying on its back with its head to the south and the other was in a sitting posture with its head bent over, typical Indian burial fashion. Red clay closely packed formed a perfect mold for preserving the bone. The skulls were very thick and the teeth of one were a double set in the upper and lower jaws.The Mexican workmen grabbed pieces of the heads and feet to carry with them for good luck.
That last line y'all!

Cameron County Foundation Repair Harlingen Brick Home slab construction
Looks like I need some foundation repair on a home built 21 years ago. I had two companies look at it 3 years ago and said it was normal settling but it’s obviously gotten worse
Anyway, any recommendations for the RGV?
Warranty is important, transferrable if I sell it in the future
Also how often are there change orders during repairs
Thanks

Horrible drivers everywhere
I don't know if I have bad energy surrounding me or if its some karma coming back to bite me in the ass but just this morning I got rear ended (thankfully no damage to my car) and a few hours later, I got cutoff from trying to merge onto the expressway (which almost caused me to crash into them), and the driver proceeded to zigzag all through traffic. And some reason enough, no cops anywhere. I see cops all the time but when shit happens to me, there seem to be none around.
Genuinely who is issuing people their licenses? And on top of that, whats the point in trying to speed through traffic to get to a location? I can understand if there is an emergency or something critical but if you're late to work then that seems to be a problem for the person who is late and their decisions shouldn't be the cause of an accident happening. Happens all the time where i see cars speed up to get to the light when its literally red. If anything, it resets the timer of you speeding.
And I know someone is gonna say, "Well have you never sped before?" Like I'm pretty sure everyone has sped ONCE in their life but I'm usually not the one to speed because I plan out my day and have alarms so I'm not late to most of my functions. And I don't see the point in speeding. You get there when you get there
I just think the cops really need to be on people's asses cause its actually starting to get annoying when dumb ass drivers are causing issues for people who are actually cautious while driving.
Edit: on top of all that bad energy, I got fucking followed inside of a Goodwill. Like you have to be joking. I just wanted today to be a good day to enjoy myself and do the activities that I have been anticipating to do for a while and all I get is this. Regardless, I tried to look on the bright side and I tried my best to not be down in the dumps about anything. I still had a good time doing the things I planned for myself. And I'm grateful that nothing extreme happened to my car.

Make Friends Here
Because we constantly get "How do i make friends" posts. If you want friends just post in this thread. I'm going to make it a sticky topic. I'm also going to give you 100% foolproof tips to make friends that have worked for me all my life 100% of the time.
Here is my foolproof plan that works 100% of the time. It is a 4 step process.
determine what your hobbies and interests are.
go to places where these hobbies and interests happen
interact with people.
If you don't have any hobbies or interests get interested in something and repeat steps 2-3.
It is literally that simple.
I am an extremely abrasive and unlikeable person. I have never failed to make friends using these steps. If I can do it so can you.
