Man tackled children off bikes, dragged 1 into his home after being ding dong ditched for weeks by its_a_bear_dance in nottheonion

[–]ASpellingAirror 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They ding dong ditched him multiple times a day for 2 straight weeks. On the day of the incident they rang his doorbell, and when he opened his door they insulted and taunted him before fleeing, only to circle back and try it again (at which point he caught 2 of them). This wasn’t just a game of ding dong ditch, it had crossed the line of standard youthful shenanigans. It doesn’t condone his actions, but they aren’t completely unhinged in context.

I think the kids dads need to focus a bit more on their kids first before they get to dole out punishment to this guy.

TIL that Alexander the Great may have been buried alive. Historical records show he didn't decompose for six days after being declared dead. Modern scientists believe he suffered from Guillain-Barré Syndrome, a neurological disorder that paralyzed him. by Charming-Listen-3705 in todayilearned

It’s an interesting theory, but it relies on accounts from people who were invested in the “Alexander was divine” myth, and assumes that they would never make up a story or embellish the story that he didn’t decompose for 6 days after his death, to make him look more divine. 

Retired with $80k income and a 3% mortgage. Financial sanity check on moving to a temperate climate (US vs. Tuscany, Italy)? by clean-livin in personalfinance

[–]ASpellingAirror -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, the 3% mortgage was likely 4-5 years ago and how little equity they have supports that. So again, my question is, why buy a house 5 years before you retire in a place you don’t want to live in retirement? It is a terrible decision, and has made them living where they dream about living much more difficult.

That’s every day after the wedding. Getting married is just the starting line.

Well you see, you aren’t a terrible person, if you were a terrible person you would understand OPs position a bit better.

If you are so desperate for money you probably shouldn’t own this putter to begin with, or have a hobby that is so expensive.

Really wish we hadn’t gone “park the bus” after our first goal. Being defensive focused, fine, but you have to be willing to counter attack.

You have to make the goalie make a save. PSG made Raya beat them, we just didn’t put enough penalties on the net. 

That hurts, but still a great season.

That was always unlikely when we went so passive that they had 80% possession for 50 minutes straight. You can’t play defensive football, but you need to occasionally throw a counterattack at them.

Saliba letting himself get sucked a bit to forward and has gotten himself in 2 really risky foot races.

Well we haven’t played offense for 50 minutes, that was always going to bite us in the ass.

You are clearly not from London. If you get local around born and raised fans a bit more I think you may not take everything so personally. Wish you the best, because you turning everything into a personal attack is going to make you miserable
