    Neighbor From Hell

    I haven’t had any direct incidents and I hope this remains the case, but the neighbors behind my place are pretty disruptive. They’re a couple around my age, with I think six kids, and they’re constantly yelling at one another and the kids. Pretty awful, degrading language all around. Not...

    Favorite music albums?

    Oh my gosh I LOVE Impossible Princess. Most people don’t seem to be aware of it, as that was the whole indie-Kylie phase, but it’s so underrated and so good. “I Don’t Need Anyone†and “Did It Again†are two of my all-time favorite songs.

    If you could cure a disease/ailment, what would it be?

    As much as I would love for cures for cancer, AIDS, and the like to be found within my lifetime… I think I’d have to go with depression/other mental disorders as well, especially as they are quite insidious. People are becoming more aware of how serious they can be, which is great, but for...

    Hammer Time?

    Alrighty… was hammer dude drunk? Haha. Seeing all those cops just standing there watching like “Well hey, would you look at that†gave me a good laugh. If they did take phone pics I wonder how many of them are on Facebook with captions like “You don’t see this every day!â€

    Positivity - Stories of People Helping Others (Including Animals)

    A bittersweet story indeed. What a lovely thing for their community and local businesses to do for them. It would be extra awesome to hear that she beat the odds, I agree, but they have this happy memory now, which is wonderful.

    Favorite music albums?

    Ah, I was really impressed by “The Monster.†I hadn’t listened to Eminem in ages before that song, but he and Rihanna knocked it out of the park on that one. I should check the album out, it’s pretty great to hear him in top form again.

    Favorite music albums?

    Does what it says on the tin - I’d love to hear about some of your favorite albums. I’ve got a few, including Zooropa by U2, Parklife by Blur, and Mezzanine by Massive Attack, which I always turn to when I don’t know what else to listen to. And they hit the spot every time. Lately...

    Another drug to worry about!

    Flakka sounds like a dangerous drug indeed. I’ve seen the name around but I wasn’t sure of exactly what it was, or its effects, until now. It doesn’t even sound particularly pleasant. Why the hell would anyone WANT a drug to send them into paranoia and a potential murderous rage? The mind...

    Character alignment

    I actually got lawful good on that test, lol wut. 33.3% lawful, 40-something good. Gave me a laugh. Probably the lawful-good-wannabes I’ve run into would have tested over 50% lawful.

    Pet peeves!

    Smoking, that’s a weird one for me. I don’t like when smoke blows in my face, true enough, but I’m usually just content to let smokers be (and/or leave the area if possible). The only time it ever really irritated me was when I was riding in the backseat of my friend’s car, and our...

    Character alignment

    I’d have to say I agree, I don’t think there’s a single person in this world who’s Lawful Good. And if they try to be, they may find themselves falling into Lawful Stupid more often than not. Have had more than one run-in with that type over the years, haha.

    If you could eat lunch with one famous person, who would it be?

    Nicky Wire, for sure. We could swap makeup and fashion tips, badmouth crappy indie bands, and discuss philosophy and literature all on the same lunch date. And I could make lame puns and make him laugh like I did when I gave him a plush tiger toy that one time. Hey, it happened once, it could...

    Pet peeves!

    Slurping. I can’t think of anything more insignificant that absolutely gets on my last nerve. I’m not even as bothered by people chewing open-mouthed (though don’t get me wrong, I don’t enjoy that either). I just cannot stand the sound of slurping. I get if if the drink’s still too hot...

    What country would you visit?

    Personally I’d like to do a tour of Europe. It would be extra awesome if my two European friends could join up. Other than the obvious western Europe destinations, I’d like to visit Poland, Czech Republic, and Bosnia and Herzegovina in particular. I’m sure I’m forgetting a few others...

    Positivity - Stories of People Helping Others (Including Animals)

    Aww, both are sweet stories indeed! I love reading stories of people leaving huge tips, and also how kind of those officers to take the time to rescue that cat. I hope the owner is located soon, or if there isn’t an owner, someone can take the cat in. Kudos all around. Also, I think...

    Suspect Forgot To Log Off Facebook On Computer In Home He Was Robbing

    Hahaha, I think I remember hearing about this story. Thought to myself, “Well, there’s a laundry list of things NOT to do if you want to rob someone!†Well done sir, hope you enjoyed your jail sentence.

    Character alignment

    Where would you all consider yourselves to fit on the character alignment grid? For those of you who play or have played RPGs, do you/did you like to play the same alignment you identify with IRL, or something completely different? I’m definitely in the neutral sector. Most likely neutral...

    Dispatchers Deserve More Credit Than They Get?

    Dispatchers definitely deserve more credit than they get. They may not be the ones out there in the field but without their guidance, things would be disastrous. This instance is all the more impressive; I can’t even imagine delivering a baby by proxy like that. Much respect to both the police...

    Are Guns Really Necessary For Cops?

    It's less a question of need, I don't think anyone would take a cop without a gun seriously. Although these days, people seem to be taking police less seriously in general, so it's really no surprise things are going as downhill as they are. But I'm getting off track. My pacifist...

    I LOVE the dumbest criminals stories

    I vaguely remember a World’s Dumbest Criminals show, and it was pretty entertaining. Come to think of it, I’m pretty sure there was a similar site that was super popular in my high school keyboarding class. I’ve found it again and I’m browsing through it now. I’m particularly fond of...
