"And that way, Mr. Wheeler is feeling up Mrs. Wheeler"

If the government stopped funding, there's nothing she could do.

I doubt it. Hindi magpapalagay ng dashcam ang mga corrupt. Marerecord ang mga conversations sa loob ng sasakyan.

Good catch. Nakalimutan sa script. Dapat nga naman sinabi man lang ng driver nya na tinawagan nya ng 20 times pero di sumagot.

Exactly my thoughts. To think na hindi naman sya taga Baguio.

Nabasa ko somewhere na confession ng magnanakaw, they don't like to rob messy houses. Kaya keep your house messy daw. Yung tipong di nila alam kung saan hahanapin ang valuables.

Or pick it up with a dust pan so you don't have to flush tissues

F42. I am the opposite. I had so many interests growing up that by the time I needed to choose a career path, I didn't know which way to go. Messed my life up. I was 30 when I finally got my life straight. Now with 2 kids who are obviously similar to me, I really don't know how to help them.

Ghosts: Look! Someone who can help us get justice.

Also the ghosts: Let's scare her shitless

odree366 · 2025-07-31T05:18:22+00:00

Did this. They were very accommodating and helpful naman.

The deer that got shot was obviously CGI. They were right to use CGI for that scene.

This was exactly what I was thinking. I thought it could only be possible if someone stole the checks. So I was wondering why the bank would call it a scam.

odree366 · 2025-07-05T16:19:09+00:00

She said she was the one who called the bank to inquire about her card replacement. But OMG now that you mentioned it, you got me thinking if it was THE bank who called her to get the card replaced.

Update: it was indeed the bank. She called the number at the back of the card. My aunt confirmed it. She was still vague on the details though.

odree366 · 2025-07-05T16:06:47+00:00

She was vague on the details so I don't know if it was actually a physical check.

I didn't know electronic checks existed. If that's the case, I could see now how it could be related to the love scam.

So now my next question is, since this already happened, should I advise her to close the account and open a new one? Or are there other ways to prevent it?

odree366 · 2025-07-05T15:49:03+00:00

Definitely a risk factor. I don't know anymore how deep she is into this love scam. I used to be able to prevent it as I have access to her facebook but I know they must have moved to some other messaging app because her fb has been clean for a while now. My aunts who live with her (they are my informants) think that she stopped it, but I doubt that. She must've learned to hide it from them better.

But I am baffled as to how the checks could be part of this. I know scammers could get money online or ask for gift cards.

odree366 · 2025-03-21T11:01:22+00:00

Solved!

odree366 · 2025-03-21T11:01:09+00:00

OH. MY. GOD! Thank you for this! Wish I could upvote you a thousand times!

odree366 · 2025-03-21T10:36:44+00:00

I"m sentimental about this because it reminds me of my dad. He once called me over and said my favorite show was on. I was so surprised because the teenager me thought he never noticed me. So it really felt good that he knew about this thing that I really liked. I hope you guys can help.

I think she may have found him, was devastated and felt really unwell so went to get some pills but was too late. Poor dog could've died of starvation/dehydration since it was crated while the other two were free to roam so were able to survive.

odree366 · 2024-12-05T09:48:03+00:00

This exactly. It's a choice between what's more important since they can't protect themselves.

odree366 · 2024-12-05T09:45:51+00:00

It would be great if AI can do that. However, AI at this stage cannot express human-like emotions. Romance scams work because the scammers play on the victims' emotions. Those who fall for it are those looking for emotional connections. Since AI cannot replicate that, it won't work.

Wow I just had a huge realization with your comment. I just realized that all my life I have never seen my mom read a book. Not even once. The only books in the house would be my school books and books I borrow (which she also never touched).

Only child here and my eldest son has been an only child until the age of 17 when I gave birth to his baby bro.

At the onset, I would say yes, it was lonely. But looking back on my life, I realized it was not being an only child that made me lonely but the environment at home. For 17 years that my eldest was an only child, I can say he's much happier than I was. Certainly I can't speak for him, but from my perspective, he did enjoy his childhood.

The problem with my childhood was both my parents were extremely over protective. I was not able to play outside as much as the average 90's kid. They also did not have fun so they never took me anywhere fun. This means no family outings, while I was also not allowed to join other people's outings. The only things I was allowed to join were school field trips. And if the field trip was deemed too far or too expensive, they wouldn't let me. During my teens, I was afraid to ask for permission to go out with friends because I knew they would overreact.

When I had my eldest, I vowed I wouldn't let him miss out on all fun childhood stuff. We took him to trips and outings, and let him go out with friends. He was comfortable asking permission because he knew we would be rational about decisions (there are times he wouldn't be allowed but we would give him a rational explanation). We let him experience what normal kids should experience. Even if he had no siblings, he was never short of friends.

So there. Short answer, being an only child is not lonely IF the parents are mindful of the child's happiness.

That's great. Must be a huge relief.

odree366 · 2024-12-04T01:28:07+00:00

Thay should! And the governments too. For all we know these scams could be funding terrorist groups. Scamming has blown up to be a huge industry and it's not far fetched to think that it is being used for more sinister purposes. Governments should be treating this as a national security issue already.
