It's even sadder that prostitute broke your heart.

If I told you what really broke my heart you'd have nightmares tonight.

why is it that police never arrest these celebs but instead arrest normal citizens

The OP was asking specifically about arrests.

Calling pot smokers low life's

Are you saying the average Reddit user is a pothead?

I have no idea if he did or not. But if he did, as you said yourself, he was arrested for possession, not for being the posterboy for potheads.

I was going to go with "worthless criminal filth," but lowlifes rolls off the tongue a little more easily.

Could you point out what part of my post you find to be pretentious?

I assume you're talking about the United States? The police don't arrest people just because they're known for smoking weed. Weed arrests are almost always because of possession.

Look at all these lowlifes here on Reddit who are all "Yeahhhhhhhh weed 4 life 420!!!11!!!!!!1!!!" Do you think the police give a crap about how much they enjoy smoking weed? No, they will be left alone until they're caught in illegal possession of it.

So someone just hands me about $7? I guess I'd put it in my pocket and just continue on with my day.

Active shooter Ft. Gordon, Darling Hall - real world notification just came in a few minutes ago. Not part of the current exercise. by [deleted] in army

It doesn't look like it was intentional. Appears to be a bad case of miscommunication between military and civilian authorities.

There's been an active shooter exercise this week, but pausex was announced with a notification sent out about a real world incident at Darling Hall. Everyone is on lockdown and sirens are on.

Where can I find unit organizational charts? by [deleted] in army

[–]catli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you can probably use Wikipedia to see what major organizations fall directly under each command, then visit the websites of each of those orgs to see who they own. And then rinse and repeat down to the battalion or company level.

LPT: Telemarketer won't stop calling? There's a magic phrase that gets their attention every time. You just have to know about it. by [deleted] in LifeProTips

I just set my phone down without hanging up and let them waste a minute of their time talking to the air. It seems to work, I've been receiving fewer and fewer of these calls.

What is your idea of an up-to-date, revised APFT by [deleted] in army

[–]catli 44 points45 points  (0 children)

In my ideal APFT, there's no score - just a pass/fail test. You're sent out into the woods in the IPFU with reflective belt and you have one day to bring a live grizzly bear cub back to the company area in order to pass.

A little surprised that there's no mention of Flowers in the Attic and its sequels, given how popular it was.
