I love how this is the perfect example of what I tell newbies: The best way to not get muddy/wet is to walk slowly through the middle of the mud/river. Anything else is gambling with losing your balance and falling in. But no, their precious sneakers! Nevermind they'll be just as muddy/wet in another two hours.

So what I'm saying is thank you, I'm off to get this framed.

Roos fight for dominance by grabbing each other and then kicking each other in the belly. If they're fighting in a dam then they'll straight up try and drown each other or stomp the poo poo out of things.

quote:

A COUPLE of Gold Coast blokes have thwarted would-be robbers and filmed the entire dramatic encounter overnight.

James Ross-Munroe and Kane Wiblen found themselves in the right place at the wrong time at an Arundel service station late last night when thieves broke into an Oporto shop.

But instead of standing idly by, Mr Ross-Munroe — who had just ‘busted a plugga’ (broken his thongs) — ran over to the white Commodore getaway car — which had no registration plates.

A shirtless Mr Ross-Munroe took the keys from the ignition while the thieves were still in the Marble Arch Place shop.
James Ross-Munroe quickly took the keys from the getaway car’s ignition.

When the bandits reappeared and jumped in the car, Mr Ross-Munroe lept in after them, throwing several punches and yelling obscenities to the men as they took off on foot.

He and Mr Wiblen gave chase but the robbers got away.

The pair immediately posted the vision on Facebook saying ‘The moment we caught two blokes breaking into Oportos Arundel, they ran inside so I took their keys out of the ignition.”

“When the driver came back to the car he realised his keys were missing, the passenger jumped in and I managed to land a few punches ...

“I chased them but because I’m fat they got away.”
And confronted the thieves as they tried to escape.

The video has since been shared hundreds of times with friends commenting that they are heroes.

Gold Coast police confirmed the robbery saying both robbers fled west along Brisbane Road toward Helensvale

Police have a 23-year-old man in custody but are asking anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Taco Bell exec is suing the Uber driver he beat up for $5 million

quote:

Remember Benjamin Golden, the former Taco Bell executive who beat up his Uber driver? Golden is now suing the driver for $5 million for recording the violent attack. From the Orange County Register:

As a result of the overwhelming media coverage, Golden says he suffered severe emotional distress, humiliation, anxiety and the loss of his job.

The lawsuit claims invasion of privacy, negligent infliction of emotional distress, intentional infliction of emotional distress, assault and battery. He is seeking damages in excess of $5 million.

I wonder how the judge will react to this? Hopefully this will backfire on him and generate some schadenfreude.

They were probably pissed and were going to the service station for food and were loving around on the way, hence the recording.

Look! A teddybear doll!
It's soooo cute!


The Uber driver originally sued the exec for $25,000 for his damages, injuries, and whatnot. The exec came back with this counterclaim for $5 million. I believe the lawyer who filed the counterclaim was the same lawyer that is handling his criminal charges.

Folks, there are different types of lawyers. Some lawyers are very, very good at criminal cases, and know how to handle those matters in a way that will work. These same lawyers will do things extraordinarily poorly if you let them near the civil side of law. Regardless of the merits of the case, or the merits of the underlying action, this was an extraordinarily stupid thing to do for both your case against the driver and the criminal case pending against you.

I haven't read any of the details because I'm lazy, but I'm pretty sure that $5m figure is because the Taco Bell dude lost his job when the video surfaced. Not saying he deserves it or anything, but he lost a boat load of money when that video hit youtubes.

It's how her species communicates

The lawyer doing the counter suit is gonna get paid whether he wins or not. Basically just padding his bill a little.

Write civil complaint : $
Submit complaint: $
Read judge's decision to dismiss: $
Phone call to client to discuss civil suit: $

Goddamn do I wish I was a lawyer sometimes.
