She puts up a Hatreon account to "legally fight the Demonrats who ruined her" and she'll be better off than before this all happened.

Hell, maybe she'll might get something from the Trump administration.

I wish people would stop saying 'Nothing Matters' takes like this. The Grift Train isn't that easy to catch and doing a racism to a POC isn't a ticket to ride it.

I definitely get the impression that drink driving isn't taken as seriously in the US as other countries. In the UK it's really frowned upon socially despite every one here being piss heads.

The US mostly lacks the public transportation system that would lead to suspended licenses being a more easily implemented penalty. I'm not excusing drunk drivers, because holy poo poo is that a selfish choice to make, but in a lot of areas if you take away someone's license they can't get to work.

The US is a mad max style hell state with basically non-existent social safety nets. I'm not defending drunk driving at all.

A friend of mine nearly got suckered into one of those schemes, she did several weeks training to be a host for a local pub trivia company and it was only after she'd invested all that time & effort and 'passed' the training that they told her she had to pony up a 'refundable deposit' of hundreds of dollars for the equipment before she could start the actual job.

How long does it take to train to be a pub trivia quizmaster?

Of all the departments at LIberty U to lose funding, this is the most surprising. Aren't religious studies (because American evangelicalism is still, somehow, technically classified as a religion) the whole point of the place?

I love a rope swing but there's so many terrible fails - rope breaks....tree breaks....rope too long... but the most common thing is this right here, and its just hold onto the loving rope, dipshit. Hold onto the rope!

It's the technique. They don't have the rope taught when they begin the swing, so they experience a drop and a lot of inertia when suddenly the rope goes taught and it turns out two hands and untrained grip strength can't stop most adults from falling in an instant. If they leaned back so the rope was tight and gently lifted off their heels they'd go swinging elegantly along.

Showin' off the new litter. My guess is it's sawdust based or something and super light, so while the cat was always able to step on the edge of the pan on the way out with the clay-based litter weighing it down the new light litter couldn't handle it.

It's corn based if it's what I use. Totally flushable but yes, light.

Working 2 jobs in college, I clocked out and put a coat on and a customer asked me for help finding an item we didn't have. I took him to where the item we didn't should be. Sorry we don't have it. He wants me to check inventory. I'm sorry sir I'm off the clock and need to go now. He wanted me to check anyways, it will just take you a second. I apologized and said he would have to speak to another employee. He complained that they were all busy. Yeah dude I know we are understaffed. I told him I had a 2nd job starting in less than an hour and couldn't help him.

This loving regular customer decided to double-park and block my car in. I had to go back into the store, make an annoucement, find out it was him. He wanted me to just wait so he wouldn't lose his spot in line. I insist he move his car now. He tells me that if I just took a register he would be able to get to his car and move it faster. I get real loud at him. He moves his loving car. He tells me I could have been more polite to him. I do not apologize.

My manager wrote me up because of a customer complaint. A customer complained that I refused to help them and raised my voice.

I once again return to the idea that anyone working retail should be entitled to one free murder per year, to kick in after a year of working retail.
On the job only, of course.

When I was 18 I tweaked my back a few days before we were going to go to a rave so I was popping excedrin which kept me from sleeping which I counteracted by popping yellow jackets from the gas station. The last thing I remember at the rave was a great looking girl walking up and hitting on me for LITERALLY THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE, just then the strobes came on and I started foaming at the mouth and dropped to the floor having a grand mal seizure.

I didn't get her number.

There's a used car dealership near me that runs a money laundering scheme like this.

Drugs come in from all around the country hidden in lovely used vehicles that arrive stacked on flatbeds.

The drugs don't cost the local dealers anything, but they have to buy a used vehicle first which get financed with absurd interest fees. We're talking stuff like a $8,000 car coming out to costing $40,000+ overall.

The dealers make their monthly cash payment which gets put on the dealerships books and everything comes out squeaky clean.

If you know about it, it can't be that clean.
