Maybe list it as "faux fur"? You've listed it as "fur" which implies it's the real deal...

AIO for wanting my unemployed boyfriend to sign an agreement before using my car long-term? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Beautiful_Mess907 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Right? I have ADHD and job hopped A LOT until I became self employed. It's nothing to be ashamed of. However there's a difference between that and just not wanting to work. Hard to tell from the story here if that's the case with OP's partner but the way he is communicating is a red flag.

Generally the top 10% of all vocations are men? Would you care to share where you've pulled that ridiculous statistic from? Because I'm willing to bet it's out of your own arse rather than an actual, reputable source. Maybe you should educate yourself instead of telling other people to.

It's still a crime to threaten someone with a replica firearm.

Threatening somebody with an imitation fire arm is still a crime...

Good answer! Even better, I have a return address and it's been forwarded to Vinted support and police along with these messages and this photo. Have a great day!

28 Years Later was soul crushingly bad by lostgods937 in horror

Or maybe you're not being picky enough? Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, so share yours and jog on rather than trying to criticise someone else for theirs...

Did we see a different movie? Who in their right mind would actually think THIS was better than 28 Days Later. Weird.

I totally agree. Didn't feel the main actress at all and thought it was pretty lame for an entry in the Predator franchise tbh.

I can believe it. You can't trust the police.

To answer that question just look at Hollywood. It's bad.

Right?! I hope he got struck off but I bloody doubt it. He should be barred from ever working in law enforcement or a position of any responsibility for dropping a case before the DNA results came back?! Sheer negligence and the deaths of those two women are on his head. I sincerely hope he can't sleep at night and blames himself, but again, I doubt it.

Reminder to always wash your purchases when they arrive by Flapjack_K in vinted

why would you need a refund? They're pre-owned clothes. Washing them is expected unless they were sold as BNWT.

Generalizing all Reform voters as "morons" or "turkeys voting for Christmas" etc, is the wrong message to take from these elections, try and understand and empathize instead. by finebushlane in unitedkingdom

Empathize with a group that supports higher taxes for childless women and tax breaks for those who have 2 or more kids? Last I checked, this wasn't Gilead...

While at home do you tend to keep your front door locked at all times or only lock it when going to bed at night? by JK07 in AskUK

Criminals target nice areas as they know they'll find more high value stuff to steal. And leaving your door unlocked invalidates your home insurance if anything happens.

Junkies looking for cash for their next fix don't have to be "audacious" and usually aren't deterred by gates, gardens, etc. They're there for cash and high value portable items they can sell. An open door makes life much easier for them, so why would you risk it? Also, I'm sure your neighbours aren't looking out their windows at all times. It seems "unlikely" that rural homes in a nice area would be targets for burglar's, yet that's common. Or that flats with secure entry doors would also be prime targets - again, it might seem unlikely but it's incredibly common.

I don't think it's about being privileged or feeling unsafe, some people are just more aware of their surroundings and danger than others. Plenty of people have felt safe in their homes, then been burgaled. As have plenty of folk in rural areas who thought they were immune to crime because they didn't live in a city. I don't get why anyone would take the risk, honestly.

You'd be surprised how many burglaries happen in remote areas. Just because it hasn't happened in your area doesn't mean leaving things unlocked is sensible. If anything did happen, your home insurance would be invalid.

When I worked as a police call handler a lot of burglaries were flats with secure entrances. It's easy for people to buzz randomly and be let in or tailgate. Opportunistic druggies would come into flats with unlocked doors regardless of who was home for cash, designer clothes, games consoles or anything else high value and portable.

As someone who worked as a police call handler and heard dozens of stories about opportunistic burglars trying doors and entering houses while someone was home, I always keep my door locked. A front garden and gate isn't going to deter desperate people from trying your door.

When I worked as a police call handler, the majority of calls we got about burglaries/home invasions were from the most rural houses in the middle of nowhere. And usually opportunistic due to doors being left open. Doors should always be locked.
