8 years old, thank God I had the sense to keep it a secret even as a child though! All my friends who knew that early and told somebody ended up in conversion therapy

I use a scoop of rye flour (30g) mixed with all purpose flour (70g) in my starter. The rye flour is like miracle gro for the bacteria. In my country it's also cheaper than all purpose flour.
When I last visited Argentina Uber was using the official exchange rates which were just fantasy numbers. As soon as you match with a driver they'd message you and you'd negotiate the cash price. Then the ride in the app would be cancelled.
Uber didn't mind because they were still getting the ~$1 or so cancel fee for basically being a messaging app.
In my junior high they had a mysterious urinal pooper. They spent months trying to catch the culprit. They even resorted to a $25 reward and a little campaign in the morning announcements. Then it turned out to be a handicap student who couldn't bend his knees. The posters and campaign quietly disappeared without a word.

I was once rear ended at a red light. I was knocked unconscious and the driver drove off. A few kind witnesses called police who took a report. They got half his plate imprinted on my bumper, but never tracked him down. I had State Farm, and I was even paying extra for the "uninsured driver coverage". They said they couldn't cover it because until they had another driver's information I was automatically at fault, even with the police report and witness accounts. They said it didn't count as uninsured driver because it's possible the guy had insurance. I was flabbergasted.
In the end I had a concussion and needed to take time off work for recovery and my short term disability insurance ended up suing State Farm because they didn't want to pay for my medical treatment. State Farm agreed to cover medical care but only if it was recorded as my fault and I paid my deductible. In anger I tried to switch insurance companies but found out they have a shared database and since it was recorded as a hit and run my fault, nobody else would take me. And State Farm jacked my rate up 30%...
