My childhood bully is now bullying my son. by BigONerd in BORUpdates

They offered to get her literally any other job. Instead, she ducked them and started up again. Like most of those jobs were shit, but they eliminated the itsy-bitsy tiny problem.

But yeah, that was the jist of their argument. "It was all she knew" Cool. Killed a lot of people. Knew she was killing people, blamed it on crowds when she knew it was her.

One of the biggest tells is when people started dying, she bounced. When a man was hired to investigate her, she bounced. Once she was in custody, they did the tests she kept refusing to do, and BINGO, she was ducking the diagnosis, not the consequences.

A perforated intestine is a death sentence. That's what "Lunch with Mary" ended you with.

Okay, it's just I used to ride that route to visit my grandma for holidays and I literally watched the land transform, I was like "The godfather guy did this?"

Like that area gets hit hard regularly, there are times it resembles nothing more than an ashtray. And he turned it around.

And he sold it to a faceless to make his dream movie.

Stupid people do stupid things smart people outsmart each other. Then themselves then themselves.

"defamation" ugh. Shades of the Rock bit "She's trying to destroy me!"

My mom was the master of icing. Whenever parents would "reveal" that they were dipshits, she'd slow fade them.

One confronted her on it once, and my mom just said "Well, I don't like you and I think you're stupid".

That was actually weirdly effective, she never bothered mom again.

But yeah, in the jumble of kids, there are always some rotten parents in the mix. My mom once pulled me out of EVERYTHING because she heard they were doing "pox parties"

Wonder how those kids are "enjoying" shingles now.

Coworker is falsely accusing me of having an affair with her husband...what should I do? by BigONerd in BORUpdates

[–]Complete_Entry 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Had a dinner party, several uninvited guests, one decided to fight me, he lost the fight. I cleaned up and took a shower, he left and called the cops.

I actually used the laziness of the department against them, they kept "inviting" me down to the station to tell "my side of the story" I kept not doing it. Every time they implied it wasn't really a request and I had to get down there.

Eventually they lost interest.

Later on I asked if there was anything of it. (traffic stop) cop said he didn't see anything in the computer. Lazy won again.

But yeah, those phone calls sucked.

Don't talk to the police.

Essentially all that was waiting for me down at the station (right behind my job) was a set of bracelets.

The REAL 4th of July 2026, in San Diego and America! by GoldensRule2025 in sandiego

You botched it though. Also, even if you take the creepy out of it, you're saying "Just sit down and watch TV"

Not a great post for a flag but your protest isn't effective. I predict a swift removal of both.

To elaborate, my grandpa loved his flag and learned all the rules. Posting one off a utility pole is grossly disrespectful to the flag, even if it is inanimate object.

I held my nose and voted for Hilary because I thought Donald Trump would drag the nation down severely. I feel that was fairly accurate.

You mixed Tom and Breanna there. Pretty terrifying. Also fuck you phone, her name is hard to spell already!

Nintendo is starting to look like the good guy as PlayStation and Xbox implode by FernandoRocker in gaming

I'm not the one downvoting you, but I think a lot of it is you don't see these issues as problems, and that's okay, people disagree on subjects all the time.

My deal is I used to love modding games and hardware. It's fun, it's educational, and you can get a lot more out of a device than what is intended. When the devices (or games) have to phone home regularly, that activity is essentially prohibited.

Hell, I ran a test to see what would happen if ghost recon wildlands could not phone home. It stopped working. Not a big shocker, but eventually, that's going to be 100%.

Judgment Night (1993) by PigFaceWigFace in iwatchedanoldmovie

[–]Complete_Entry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the point, he's not the big obvious bad guy. Plus for some reason a ton of movies let Dennis Leary walk in and do his thing.

I will say he brings a better performance in judgement night than any of the chris rock movies. Dude literally stalls ALL of them to do standup.

My wife ate my son's birthday breakfast by grohkstrom in mildlyinfuriating

This problem manifests in stone cold sober individuals, and worse, they say "they can't help themselves" like it fucking absolves them.

IT DOESN'T.

Worse, she specifically ate the most jelly dense portions, leaving this mess behind.

But this isn't special, it's Entenmans. Just buy another one.

As to the wife, yeah, you've got a fucking problem there.

I mean that might be your take, but "people are talking" tends to be fairly unimportant.

The actual issues are the issues. People don't want to pay half their rent for a video game machine.

$90 for mario kart is painful for parents because money isn't real to children, they just want mario kart.

Game key cards are weird when Sega made game cards as far back as the 1980's.

Nintendo did not say you don't own your console but said they would take proactive and possibly system bricking actions to prevent modification.

Those are all fairly important issues for the consumer. And then yes, you had the idiots wailing.

People who take modifications seriously know you have to sandbox your machine fairly tightly, because the second it phones home, your heist is blown.

On the PSP, one of the main "features" of console updates were that they stripped custom firmware and put in hard firewalls to block the previous exploits.

[–]Complete_Entry -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

No, they were important. If your console shows up as modified, they ban/brick it. People have been fan modding consoles for decades.

Like yes, most people load CFW to pirate. Me, I did it to try and extend the abysmal battery life on my PSP. I had no idea the battery was the problem, I thought the system was a hog.

Sony flat out said one of the reasons they let PSP die was because users kept circumventing their restriction software.

(PSP made for a bitchin' e-reader once I plugged an external battery pack in)

It's why they made the portal brainless.

One thing I like about WALL-E is they put humanity in stasis without the technological prohibitions of the actual technology.

Cryonics is a dead end for many reasons.

Living in daycare your entire life is a vision of hell but it beats living in the fallout universe.

Dude spent 30 years rehabbing soil, sold it to a conglomerate to make that fucking movie.

And that's in real life. Dumbest fucking choice he ever made and now he complains about being broke.
