A favorite on /r/askreddit, or at least it seems that way to me.

I only have one, and it’s not very entertaining.

I was on a bus going to work. A few stops before mine the bus gets cut off by another bus. The driver started yelling at the other driver then pulled over and got out of the bus to, I assume, escalate the conflict. We were near my stop anyway, so I got off before things could get hairy.

    we were planning to stick out a major bushfire that was approaching but we had the truck loaded just in case, done prep work etc then my (f) partner, who was a firefighter, was called by her Captain and he said they are pulling the strike team out as its too dangerous… i literally said " we are leaving now " and we did and drove though the fire.

      Three times in my life I’ve been in proximity to large bushfires, alone with no transport.

      I did the whole routine with stopping gutters and getting hoses ready, but in a couple of those places there wasn’t much water pressure to work with.

      Lucky the wind never turned in my direction.
