Though there are actually a lot of people who aren’t that good at making friends, and you could very likely be one of them. Oh, and now that I think of it, it’s true that school shootings happen sort of all the time now.” Bolen also assured her daughter that even in the event that she had a bad first day, things would get better eventually, provided she was not kidnapped on her walk home."

I can’t wait to tell everyone about [the things they will mercilessly torment me about for the rest of the school year, using my enthusiasm for theater as a rationale to exclude me from all social functions].” At press time, Mahaffey was unaware that tomorrow’s pummeling from classmates for wearing an Anything Goes cast T-shirt would have a much greater impact on his self-esteem." .. "perhaps he'd never seen a grabber before... or he was assaulted by one as a child..." It seemed like he was just trying to preemptively justify why he might have to shoot this kid ;D .. like, "If I call it a garbage-picker and shoot him, then my use of force may be questioned, but if I call it an 'object' or 'metal weapon,' then when I shoot him I'll have just cause."

tumbleweed the wanderer	Tue Aug 27 15:44:43 another case of 'girls will be girls': Police in suburban Houston are looking for a woman who used a power tool to break into a Botox clinic and steal anti-aging products. Sugar Land police say surveillance cameras captured the burglary Friday night at the Botox RN MD Spa. The footage shows a woman approaching the locked door of the spa and trying unsuccessfully to open it. She then retrieves a battery-powered grinding saw from a light-colored Mercedes SUV and uses it to cut into the clinic’s front door. Authorities say the woman stole an undisclosed amount of products from the clinic before driving away. Anyone with information is asked to contact Sugar Land police. not terribly exciting video here: http://www...ic-steals-anti-aging-products/
Cherub Cow Member	Tue Aug 27 16:06:18 She wasn't very fast-moving, so a shove onto the grass may have been a nice courtesy to prevent sidewalk scrapes ;p .. "can't imagine that thing would survive rough seas..." Yeah, they showed him take one smallish wave and it looked rough, so he probably needed to get really lucky with the weather conditions :p .. "i'm willing to say he's guilty :p... how about at least kidnapping?" Holy shit, yeah D: ..I can understand if the defense argued that this was *outside* the room and there maybe wasn't concrete proof of what happened *inside* the room, but part of the "He said, she said" of rape trials is proving that a chain of events can indicate what very likely happened in the room. Physically pulling a resisting person into a room at two different time points seems like pretty fucking strong evidence of non-consent in the room... Looking into it, it looks like they (probably) argued that she was high on drugs and didn't know what she was doing, running away naked. But if that's the case, that would mean that she was too intoxicated for consent... The defense got her to confirm that she doesn't remember saying, "No," so that was a negative against her, but this was against a backdrop of her not remembering everything clearly. So yeah, sounds like the defense used her memory holes against her. You'd think the jury would put the pieces together with that video, though... The transcript must be great for this one. Like, how do they make him seem like he was helping her while running after her naked wearing socks? ..

You do not know any of these people this year, you will not know any of these people next year, and you will never know any of these people ever again.” At press time, the darkness was closing in as the word “Lizzo” lingered in the air, but you will not comprehend what it means as the foul hands of death pull you down, down, down."

tumbleweed the wanderer	Fri Aug 30 15:45:56 This week, the Federal Court ordered Air Canada to pay more than $15,000 ($21,000 CAD) and send formal apology letters to a French-speaking couple in Ottawa for repeated language equality violations. The lawsuit concerned more than 22 complaints that Michel and Lynda Thibodeau filed against the airline in 2016. The couple complained the word "lift" was engraved on seatbelts in English but not in French. They also alleged the French translations of the words "exit" and "warning" were in smaller characters than the English words, and, finally, that a French language boarding announcement at the airport was less detailed than the English boarding call. "Air Canada systematically violates the linguistic rights of Francophones," argued the Thibodeaus, according to the judgment for the case. The case concerned their rights under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms and the Official Languages Act, which is meant to ensure that English and French have equal status in Canada. http://edi...nguage-lawsuit-trnd/index.html what a hellhole the article is not super clear... it mentions over '22 complaints' in the filing... and later '14 successful complaints' in the result, so maybe the extra idiotic seatbelt one didn't make the cut

"& ready to take a bat to anyone not taking advantage of the daily double" People *really* need to live a little with the Daily Double.

"what a hellhole" Wows... that dual language issue was made fun of in "Canadian Bacon", but it's funny to think that that couple actually takes it seriously... I really want to believe that they're just trolling. .. "Kittens and a $2 WrestleMania, thrift store find!" Yaaaay! :D :D .. "a fairly decent prank..."

tumbleweed the wanderer	Mon Sep 02 17:47:13 A Nashville Catholic school has banned J.K. Rowling's beloved Harry Potter novels because it fears that the books' magical spells "risk conjuring evil spirits." Students at St. Edward Catholic School, a Roman Catholic parish school, will no longer be able to borrow the seven stories in the popular series, with the school claiming that Rowling's fictitious spells are actually real. The Tennessean reports that Reverend Dan Reehil, the school's pastor, sent an email to that effect. Reehil said he consulted exorcists in both the U.S. and Rome before reaching the decision to remove the books. "These books present magic as both good and evil, which is not true, but in fact a clever deception. The curses and spells used in the books are actual curses and spells; which when read by a human being risk conjuring evil spirits into the presence of the person reading the text," Reehil wrote in the email.
Cherub Cow Member	Tue Sep 03 02:05:50 Wow... I don't know much about Harry Potter, but weren't the spells just descriptions of what they did but in Latin? Though maybe that's the point; in exorcisms and stuff, that's all they're doing too (e.g., "Go away, demon!" but in Latin). (Hail Satan, the Great Deceiver!) .. "this bull did make its jump" Nice :D Next year: higher fences ;p .. "another 5 o'clock free iProducts giveaway" Hmm..

Police in Davis County pulled over Heather Garcia, 38, on Saturday night, after noticing her car did not have a license plate. An officer searched the vehicle and found drug paraphernalia and a white powdery substance which later tested positive for meth. What the officer allegedly didn’t get was a straight answer from Garcia about her identity. At first, according to reports, she told police she did not have her ID. Then she said her name was Mercedes and that she was born in 1998. “I went back to my patrol vehicle and performed a records search on the name given,” the arresting officer wrote in a police report obtained by Gephardt Daily. He said the photo that came back “appeared to be a different individual.” Once a positive ID was made, investigators discovered Garcia had outstanding warrants and took her into custody. She was also charged with providing false personal information with intent to be another actual person; possession of a controlled substance; driving on a suspended or revoked license; and operating a vehicle without insurance.
tumbleweed the wanderer	Tue Sep 03 13:23:59 HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- An armed group of people rushed the door of a Popeyes Chicken restaurant in southeast Houston Monday night demanding chicken sandwiches. Houston police were called to the restaurant on Scott Street and Corder just after 9 p.m. Employees told ABC13 a mob of two women, three men and a baby were told at the drive-thru that the chicken sandwiches were sold out, but that apparently triggered the would-be customers. That's when police said they tried to get inside the restaurant. One man had a gun, but a restaurant worker was able to lock them out. All the while, the group left the baby inside their vehicle. "It was more of an aggravated assault because he was displaying a weapon and threatened employees," said Lt. Larry Crowson with Houston Police. http://abc...es-chicken-sandwiches/5510088/
tumbleweed the wanderer	Tue Sep 03 13:26:01 this was a related article link from above... EAST RIDGE, Tennessee (KTRK) -- Hungry chicken fans around the country left Popeyes restaurants empty-handed this week when the chain sold out of its new sandwiches. One man became so angry about the news that he decided to sue the fast-food chain. Craig Barr of Tennessee filed a summons accusing the restaurant of false advertising and deceptive business practices. He said he drove around to several locations only to be told at each of them that there were no more chicken sandwiches available. Barr told WTVC that he even responded to a Craigslist ad posted by someone who said they worked at Popeyes and was selling the sandwiches under the table for $24. He says he paid the money, but never got his sandwich. The ad is no longer online, and police say they haven't had any reports about it. Barr is expected to appear in court on Oct. 28. He's suing the restaurant for $5,000.

Cherub Cow Member	Wed Sep 04 06:01:53 I was about to say that I don't either, but I just Googled, and there are a *lot*, they're just in areas that I don't frequent. Oddly enough, in checking the Police maps, Popeyes locations here overlap well with violent crime density ;D ..can't imagine getting upset about the availability of a fast food item. That's a full retard type of thing. .. "bull kicking guy" He was right in the danger zone ;D .. "(i realize that's probably not called a pace car :p... i don't know cycling)" Yeah, just a support vehicle of the caravan or a race marshal :D In Googling, rider Sylvain Chavanel also had this happen to him; a support vehicle braked suddenly and he ran into it (no video of that)... Unsurprising to see the blame going onto the cyclist in the comments, but it's misplaced in the case of a bicycle race — on a training ride on public access streets, sure, but not a closed-access bicycle race. Worn out riders put their heads down to catch their breath if no other riders are around, and they can do this with the expectation that vehicles won't impede. I.e., this driver wasn't doing his or her job correctly; they're not supposed to become obstacles. Their entire job is to support without interfering in any way, which includes paying attention to whether or not cyclists are approaching from the rear. That level of incompetence is matched by that 2011 Tour driver who I don't think was even permitted to be driving a support vehicle and who was banned for disobeying orders to pull over prior to this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?&v=PJEtNfnDLCk ..you may remember me complaining about that in 2011 :p There was video of that driver parking after the stage, but her identity was concealed and I suspect that her passenger/coworker took the blame for the sake of apologies to the riders. It was mostly swept under the rug by the race organizers and not settled legally until 2014...

tumbleweed the wanderer	Wed Sep 04 12:11:18 pretty dramatic shooting video http://www.liveleak.com/view?t=ubhJR_1567583871 a couple secs missing for some reason seems like guy on ground was surrendering before cop came back around the blue shelves... not that i blame him for not noticing and finishing the guy off :p, clear blood pouring from cop's leg & smears on floor (text says he was hit twice)
Cherub Cow Member	Wed Sep 04 16:06:53 D: "seems like guy on ground was surrendering before cop came back around the blue shelves... not that i blame him for not noticing and finishing the guy off :p" Yeah... he was definitely surrendering and could have survived if the officer had noticed, but in a shootout... not much time for dilly dally; I wouldn't blame him either. That was classic LL, though! A zoom-in on a dying face, video continues until people stop moving... If you want blood!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6EWqTym2cQU You got it!! ;p

tumbleweed the wanderer	Wed Sep 04 23:02:52 i'm not a big cinnamon roll fan ------- Fayette County Sheriff’s Office deputies have charged a 44-year-old pastor’s wife with wanton endangerment after she allegedly fired a pistol in a church parking lot in May. The incident reportedly happened during a heated meeting with the wife of the church youth pastor. Melinda Frye Toney, of Oak Hill, was charged on Aug. 22, after police viewed video surveillance that had been taken at New Life Apostolic Church in Oak Hill on May 11, according to Fayette Sheriff’s Detective Kevin Willis. Willis said that Toney had been in a conflict with Lori Haywood, 29, who is married to New Life Apostolic Youth Pastor David Haywood. Willis said the two ministers’ spouses had tension over a “minor conflict” and that an argument over a themed T-shirt that Haywood had worn to an event was “the straw that broke the camel’s back.” the long rambling article that definitely needs editing... & needs a photo of that themed T-shirt: http://www...a2-5435-9178-2496e765fd49.html

Cherub Cow Member	Thu Sep 05 05:18:18 lulz... he replied in the comments saying that he got down fine, but that video ending makes me think that he's a liar and that he's actually dead, sending messages to the living to trick them into hugging tree fires or something ;p .. "pray for these dogs" Good comment from there: "Don’t be bad in this life or you will get reincarnated as a cockroach or god forbid, an Indian." .. "the long rambling article that definitely needs editing... & needs a photo of that themed T-shirt:" Ouch... That was painful even to speed read. It mentions video, but I don't see any links and Googling got me nowhere. Maybe police will release it soon ;p ..

tumbleweed the wanderer	Thu Sep 05 13:52:02 NEW YORK (AP) — A scientist who collected DNA from Scotland’s Loch Ness suggests the lake’s fabled monster might be a giant eel. Neil Gemmell from the University of Otago in New Zealand says the project found a surprisingly high amount of eel DNA in the water. He cautioned that it’s not clear whether that indicates a gigantic eel or just a lot of little ones.

Cherub Cow Member	Sun Sep 08 01:48:12 India must be compensating :p .. "He cautioned that it’s not clear whether that indicates a gigantic eel or just a lot of little ones." Sounds like a forgotten Hollywood script is about to be dusted off and a writer paid ;) .. "the skull & spine are important" Yeah.. he seemed okay afterwards D: .. "maybe the woman is trying for an insurance scam? or just reflex action for insurance scam... insurance scam muscle memory..." lol Good estimate for a China video :D Definitely over-acted. Someone made this comment: "Woman is obviously a professional soccer player" .. "the cat really sells this man vs bird video" Totes :D ..

tumbleweed the wanderer	Sun Sep 08 12:19:06 a District 9 at Home Depot in Oakland: http://www.liveleak.com/view?t=Cqmcc_1567925054 i may have noted this story before: when i first moved to LA, my sister-in-law who had lived there her whole life, suggested going to Home Depot 'to pick up some Mexicans' (for moving furniture). ...it was an odd thing to hear if you come from places where that's not a thing :p
Cherub Cow Member	Sun Sep 08 19:55:40 Wow, yeah.. That's odd. I didn't even realize that that was still a thing. I thought maybe Home Depot had ended it with some kind of policy (in Googling, that's a "no" — just a couple articles about particular stores cracking down). There's a large Mexican presence where I live, and I'm aware of some trailer parks, but none of the Home Depots just have people standing around waiting for work. Must be a border state thing? .. "wow, that rock not only got the car, smashed the hell out of that tree" Totes! The car seems like normal rock power, but the tree exploding adds that extra "Wow... that was a huge and heavy piece of rock flying through the air"-factor :D .. "Swedish behavioral scientist Magnus Söderlund has suggested that eating other people after they die could be a means of combatting climate change." I mean... to a very small degree? A problem is that when peeps die the meat spoils pretty quickly.. and then another problem where most people who die aren't very tasty anyways. Like, it's not just sweet-meat teenagers dying in drunk driving accidents; a lot of times it old people whose meat has turned from age and from dying in their rooms and not being discovered for a while. Not good eats. ;p .. cat makes some really wacky noises when getting back scratch: http://imgur.com/gallery/sf9Zt60

tumbleweed the wanderer	Mon Sep 09 01:24:12 Ian Ziering, apparently branching out from Sharknado, is in a movie on now called "Zombie Tidal Wave"... i haven't been paying attention, but caught one quote: "it's a zombie tsunami!"
Cherub Cow Member	Mon Sep 09 07:16:52 Sounds like my next movie night ;D .. "how about using people in pet food? like they do in China... probably" That... sounds like a good idea :o I was only thinking of people palate, but plenty of *animals* would love to eat people. You're on to something :D .. This might be for lol thread, but it also sums up the reality of being a wage worker XD (Gordon Ramsay talking to an honest cook) http://imgur.com/gallery/F0vsf9l Reading the comments, it sounds like this particular cook has his own food truck and makes great food there.
