Things That Amuse You

Yeah. Curiosity killed the cat. Funny thing is she promptly got refunded and blocked.

The refund is hilarious. The whole thing, actually.... I hope your wife is 100% ready to stare down anybody who questions her. “Fuck yeah, I paid. I had to know.”

[bagtagley]

Paying makes it legit. It would have been weird if she had asked for a free sample and a family discount.

[::: :::]

This is the only thing about that whole story that is fucked up. There isn't a damn thing wrong with making some cashish off of weirdo fetishists, but there is a hell of a lot wrong with "checking up on" a relative who is doing that of her own volition. Mind your own fucking business.

i'm on the other side wondering why someone who is fine doing online porn even gives a shit if the family clicks on it?

unless it's sort of a doxxing thing...

Anyone who has met her knows she may use those exact words.

She wanted to see if she was being exploited, the relative is young. After a few apologetic texts, the relative said since her primary income of tattooing is cut off due to COVID, she is doing these videos to pay bills and actually is not psyched on doing them and wants to quit. Wife mentioned to me about giving her money to help her bills, and I had to stop saying out loud "Ok, what's her website I'll become a member'.

Funny but tasteless in the circumstances.

Probably could get some signups from the TRG. There's more than a few kooks and weirdos here.

I had a similar incident with my truck. There was an intermittent short that would occasionally drain the battery at random, often inopportune times. This went on for a couple of years and I could never figure it out, even after lots of trouble shooting. Finally my mechanic tore into the dash and found $0.37 in the cd player. A nickel had been spinning on the player so long it had a groove cut in it. And one of the two pennies had electrical burn marks on it. Looked like it would move around and randomly short out something then move and be ok for a while. Pretty sure it was wee Owen feeding coins to the cd player.

Nice. While nowhere near the seriousness of a vehicle issue, my kids fed things into the VCR, the DVD player, and the printer. I was able to fix all three because I played this game called "let's open this fucker up before we throw it out.". I found puzzle pieces, money, wadded up paper, books, match box cars, Legos, more tapes or DVDs then it was designed to handle, and DVDs in the VCR. FML. Face it, the world is one giant busy box.

These are hilarious, nice fellas.

So many questions. This needs its own thread.

nextdoor amuses me

I had a successful mercy killing last night

one of the new locals who has been calling out newer locals posted a whiney rant yesterday about how people were being mean to her at the beach and on the internet

she’s quite a douche

being a good maggot I tried to help her out and posted a Hurt Feelings Report .pdf for her. I told her to fill it out and send it to an Admin and we would get her a case number.

she responded “my feelings are hurt”

I reiterated that we could only help her out if she filled out and submitted a Hurt Feelings Report. I further informed her that if she’d had more than one feeling hurt she would have to file individual reports for each.

This morning I saw that her post and her profile were gone.

and I’m not an Admin

the Admin does not like me so I’m sorta surprised I still have an account

carry on lads

Bravo.
Tgr is one of the only places that I haven't been banned from, and I used to be quite spicy.

[Core Shot]

Heh. Nextdoor

I had someone sign up in Sonoma. Using my email. So I logged in and posted “I’m an asshat”
None of the neighbor Karen’s could understand that word.

But then I realized it was probably a distant cousin so I gave up.
Ironically the guys first name was Zander.

I have since moved all nextdoor to my spam folder. The inane drivel on that site made me nauseous.

[old goat]

Just posting to say that my kids never stuck coins in places they didn't belong, legos down the toilet, etc, etc.
Your kids are dumb.

It's one thing for family to know what you do, but it's a whole other thing if they know what you do.

Post on FB in response to question about river float someone posted in a local group

“I didn’t know you could go farther south than beaver dick. I’d love to see a route track of it! Thought there were barriers where you had to portage.”

Saw a POS bookshelf/entertainment center piece of furniture on the side of the road with a sign that said

FREE

Not original.... but: when I let my dogs out this morning they were *this* close to cornering and catching a squirrel that hangs out in the tree next to the deck. It had slipped somehow and was scrambling around for dear life among the patio furniture. Chairs were flying everywhere.

Now that everything has settled down and the dogs are back inside, watching the back deck through the screen door, the squirrel is sitting in a branch about 6 feet from them chirping (almost barking) and giving them the stare down. If it’s not a display of dominance/arrogance/anger I don’t know what is.

Cheeky bastard. Hard to not anthropomorphize this shit.

I worry that some day my wife will put me out in her constant free pile with the same sign. obo. lol.

That's funny.
I love it when people put their CRT TV's out with a free sign. Sorry, but they're going to have to pay the 5 bucks to take it to the dump.

Lately I've been enjoying coming home from work and asking the wife if she has seen any good pornos today.

I've probably already posted this (maybe even in this very thread).

The guy who used to live across the street from me was retired and always puttering around his yard and workshop. He had lived in the same house for over fifty years, and had amassed a fair amount of stuff/junk. So when he came across something he no longer needed - which was frequently - he'd put it on the corner with a free sign.

One day his son in law needed to haul something big in his truck, requiring the removal of the ladder rack that was usually over the bed, so he and a friend parked beside my neighbor's garage, took the rack off, and placed it on his lawn. Shortly thereafter, my neighbor finds some small item in his garage that he wants to get rid of, so he takes it and the free sign and puts them just in front of the rack. The item is snapped up fairly quickly leaving the rack and the free sign as the only two things on the lawn.

Sure enough, someone drives by, sees the "free" rack, grabs it, and drives away.
