I've always wondered if we, as the US, have always been this stupid. Is technology causing stupid or merely exposing it?

Was deployed with SF dudes who taught me the logic and math of a ring main. We built one to destroy batteries. We were in knee deep mud when my mentor pulled the fuses and released the smoke. He looked at me and said RUN!! I ran, with pants full of poo poo, it was a big explosion.

I'm the idiot.

I'm a college student, and I'm in my 50s. I take every assignment as a constitutional crisis. My lowest grade this semester is 100, in law. My grade is determined by the feedback of classmates who don't give a gently caress.

I wrote 20+ pages to show the group my commitment, and defer to the smarter people, who really get it.

I was a poo poo person all my life, so now I am all in. If I get a B from casual student reviews, I may short circuit.

Also, try being a crusty old mfer on video collaborations. Young people are angry! (They should be!)

I went to a boarding school in Nepal when I was younger and there used to be this older gentleman who used to just be in the main office all the time (he was some sort of investor or landowner involved with the school). By gentleman I mean wearing a hunting jacket, country gentleman's hat, with two pure bred hunting dogs. Always proper and spoke English with a British accent. He was a Rana which is the uppercaste of nepal and had been a highranking member of the Nepali royal army and had spent time in the UK at Sandhurst etc. He was also missing one arm all the way to his elbow.

I ended up somehow being tasked with taking care of his dogs and some of his office work as part of my chores. I once asked him how he lost his arm and he told me in a very serious manner that it was due to his military career (his office had a bunch of plaques from UN missions and Nepali army stuff). Later I met his granddaughter in the US and she told me he lost his arm fishing/poaching with explosives he stole from the military while stationed in a nature reserve overseeing the troops guarding the place from poachers.

Tldr: kill all nobles

That's a cool story, but I need more about this boarding school in Nepal bit.

All you really need to know about Q is that it starts out from the "no-duh" premise of "sex trafficking is bad", and ends up at "Hillary Clinton is literally drinking the blood of children murdered in satanic rituals".

I have had my nose in the books. I looked up and I am afraid.

We were moving from A to B and the radio lit up with screaming and chaos. Vehicle in front of ours stopped and dude popped out and ran away screaming and smoking.

Turned out it was just so hot that the fire extinguisher burst. The pop and resulting cloud caused those dudes to freak out. One of the funniest things I've ever seen! Driver fleeing top speed trailing white clouds, it was a drat cartoon!

I am a bad person, those dudes probably need pysch.

Drunken vent here.

Crackheads have posted up again. RV next to my house. Parking Enforcement sent them away some months ago. They're back.

Watched them smoke up, called 5.0 and got told to gently caress off.

Physically knocked up every neighbor in a 1 house radius. Some/ They too have called 50.

Police are telling me to shut up. I have moved big guns from my mom's to here. I have hours of video of their activities but no illegal actions.

So here we are today. I really needed law enforcement to help me. They will not. They are there smoking up and I am here FBR.

There was one change of command ceremony where I and three friends got voluntold to be body draggers.

We were told to stand at parade rest behind the formation and watch for people weaving and grab them before they fall out and break teeth.

We were about ten paces back. Well into the ceremony my buddy was in the back row and kept wiggling just to gently caress with us. A while later, I was looking at his neck and noticed it had turned yellow and thought he was going down.

He started falling backward, still at attention. I sprinted forward and baseball slid to catch him. I made it, and he pinned me flat to the ground. Dude was out!

Well now I couldn't get his big rear end off me and I am flailing about trying to get leverage. The three other dudes were laughing at me. A full bird saw this happen and walked over and rolled the dude off of me. He helped me drag him to the grass then yelled at the four of us for being dumb asses. It was awesome!

I had to verbally council people on multiple occasions, how to conduct personal hygiene. With witnesses. I called in other adults to witness the event because I couldn't believe it was happening. It wasn't enjoyable and I was just really sad that I had to be involved.

Those kids had no idea there was even a problem. All of them had the same look of astonishment. Smart, likeable people, just nasty.
