Have I got a doozy.

I'm here at the bar, eating a late meal, and the group next to me is drinking a lot and being annoying. One of them is harassing another customer. His friends are telling him to knock it off, regularly, but he's not having any of it. Eventually, he stumbles to the bathroom, where I'm told he projectile vomited all over. His friends put him in their car to sleep it off, apologize for their friends, keep drinking (one drink each, a shot for one of them, and the bartender tells me the most any of them had before I got there was two beers), still being annoying but not "these guys need to be cut off" annoying.

As they are kinda-sorta getting ready to leave, one of their coat falls off the bar, spilling/breaking a Captain Morgan bottle that was inside that nobody knew about. Christ, I can't honestly tell where it was, thats how covert they were hiding it.

Police are called, they spend ten minutes at the front door in a "We're leaving" holding pattern, before actually leaving. One of them tries to walk back to the bar to finish his drink, twice. Police are informed of what the dudes look like and which direction they walked off.

I found the going from bad to worse thing schadeny. Plus, if the cops find them (they couldn't have gotten far), it's public intoxication at least.

I assume the police intercepted them and gave them a much deserved drunk driving ticket or penalty of some sort.

No. "You $thing!" takes a noun.

Compare: "you clown" (noun, sounds natural); "you tall" (adjective, me jane, how can English)
"You are $thing" takes an adjective, though, which is at least what got quoted.

quote:

You will destroy him in every way because you are female and family courts hate males.
Male, on the other hand, is being used as a noun there.

I get the feeling that some of it in the beginning is true, but it also changes formats and has a website watermark starting halfway through, and that's when it starts getting a bit too silly.

I won't say anything about the veracity of that particular story, but when I was in Basic our fourth platoon had a group of concerned parents who put together their own Support Are Kids forum and would coordinate sending out waves of care packages full of snacks.

The drill sergeants liked to have the soldiers cram as much food into themselves as possible, work them out mercilessly until floor of their bay was mostly covered in partially-digested hohos, then have them clean that poo poo up and repeat. Oversolicitous parents are the loving worst, and regardless of whether this particular story is true or not, poo poo like that story has happened hundreds of times and invariably leads to the soldier in question getting hosed over.

Heh, also there was a dude in my platoon whose brother was already in the army; he would get care packages full of glitter and gay porn mags with 'please gently caress up my brother' notes. Fortunately our drills were all right (and he was pretty good at army poo poo, always helps someone get hosed with less) and only complied the first two times!

To be fair, the Onion is satire, whereas most other sites are "satire" in that they just make poo poo up to get page views and put a little "YO DUDE IT'S A PRANK IT'S A PRANK" disclaimer at the bottom.
