A constant complaint I have when I go out shopping, we have too many damn people, too many damn children and nobody pays attention to their kids. Idiots are just running around.

I also work as a Stage Manger. Let's just say it's been cultivated.

Then he tells (not asks) me to remove the security tag from a pair of socks that I'm guessing he stole from somewhere. I ask him if he knows someone in this office, he says no and tells me again to remove the tag. I said I can't because you need special tool for it. He then sits down and starts pulling at and at this point I realize he is not going to leave until I help him, so I grab the scissors and was just going to cut the stupid thing off. However, he gets upset because it will make a hole so he takes the scissors and starts sawing away at the tag until it FINALLY popped off. THEN he proceed to change his socks right then and there. After he finished, he got up and said have a nice day ma'am then left.

I still decided to lock the door. That's enough randomness for one day.

Wow!! That same exact thing just happened to me too!!

I think there should be leash laws for children.

An accessory to theft?

Just read that and it was the first thing to cross my mind, lol.

Knerys · 06-09-2012, 09:55 PM

Oh whatever. It was the quickest option in getting him to leave.

shained · 06-09-2012, 10:39 PM

I would have just told him to **** off ha ha

Tolkien · 06-09-2012, 10:45 PM

True. Next time though, follow the "Rule of 3" instead.

1. use nad kick
2. throat takedown
3. call security

Unless he ends up being a legitimate customer, then...

DarthVader 2004 · 06-09-2012, 11:01 PM

Why is it when you get these fast food coupons you meal is never really that price with the taxes and what not. Why even send people the scam vouchers when it is false ad really.

As for the kid and the Socks. Welcome to the Red Vader school in dealing with brat children 9-17.

1 You simply proceed to remove mace from said purse if your a women and politely douse him right in the eyes and say move on little ucker.

2 You take the socks and jam them in his mouth give him the best wedgy you can muster.

3 Drop the socks and grind them with said foot and then hand the socks to him and say have a nice day now hit the road little ucker.

Apparently seeing Prometheus in IMAX 3-D at 9:30am on a Monday morning is $7 cheaper than seeing it on a Weekend anytime.

SOLD!!!

Fanible · 06-10-2012, 04:50 PM

Seeing Prometheus again in IMAX in about an hour.

Or have a limit on how many children you are allowed to have. People need to be more effective with their use of contraceptives.

Tolkien · 06-11-2012, 08:45 PM

**** you NJ Devils!!! Your asses are going home today!!!

Ramplate · 06-12-2012, 08:57 AM

Woo hoo!

I've had a little Webber grill for 3 years now and I finally used it yesterday!

Usually been in rehab in grilling season

Unfortunately I didn't pour in enough charcoal so it didn't get searing hot - but it cooked well

Mmmmm... Medium rare porterhouse steak

Knerys · 06-12-2012, 11:08 AM

It doesn't sound legit (these things never are) but more info is needed.

KUacuraChick · 06-12-2012, 07:30 PM

Oh shi! You mean those calls from The Captain telling me I've won a free cruise might be a lie?

I just saw a picture of the guy's face who was eaten by some bonkers dude in Miami. Gross.

Knerys · 06-12-2012, 09:51 PM

I got one of those calls last week...

The email is just a simple message telling me to update my account by clicking on the link. It reeks of a scam but I've been receiving dozens of them (I've deleted them all).

But I kinda like to NOT lose my address because I use it for all my theater and film correspondence.

Ramplate · 06-12-2012, 11:10 PM

Sounds like you've had a lot of those e-mails.

Have you lost your address? If you haven't yet - it's probably not real.
Don't click links - go to the actual site and check there for veracity.

(I think you'd only "lose" the address if you haven't used the account for a while. Happened to me [on Hotmail] when I was in rehab and had no computer for a long time - I just reopened it with no problem)

Knerys · 06-12-2012, 11:12 PM

It's only been in the last 3 weeks or so. Unless that's the new MO.

I've seen worse.
There's a .gif of a guy on the internet who has a medic holding his face together because if he didn't, it would fall away from the middle in several pieces - and yeah he's still alive in it - no idea if he survived though.

Ramplate · 06-13-2012, 09:22 AM

just reported my second junk phone call to the National Do Not Call Registry.

This one was some Charleston SC recorded message about my current credit card and how I should switch to theirs - I have never owned a credit card and have always refused to get one.
