500 isn't a lot, I agree, Furia. They should've used a crazier number like Half a Million or something.

Murphy Brownback posted:Adult wrestling fans are some of the weirder people out there. They are like tropers but instead of seeing real life through the lens of anime they see it through roided and greased up men pretending to fight each other. I have a feeling that if he gets an exit interview, he's going to be told in no uncertain terms that bullshit like this is exactly why he doesn't get the promotions or sweet ambassador gigs (where the main draw is you get to receive lots of food????) he feels he deserves. Also, if the corporation only promotes "nonsensical, douchebag, sociopathic people", why hasn't he got the job?  Also, Fathis Munk posted:Social skills important in the workplace? Whaaaaaa..?! e: also he is furiously Googling to find out whether being fired from his previous job will negatively impact his ability to find another job in the field?  I am beginning to see why he thought this was a good idea as he's clearly a few light bulbs short of a picnic.

In Europe, do employers say why you were terminated? All the places I've worked just give dates of employment.

Baron Corbyn posted:Taken from the WWE thread, Performed a modified CM Punk pipe bomb on my boss .... might get fired now We used to have a guy like this. He wasn't trusted with anything more than low-level data entry (which was always double-checked by others) and physical labor because of poor performance in virtually every category. He always bitched about being given these jobs, thinking he was destined for greatness and deserved more responsibility and money. He was a professional gamer as well, so he whined about his keyboard and mouse not being ergonomically perfect to try and get different ones that suited him. I threatened to confiscate his keyboard and make him use an Xbox controller if he kept up his complaining. When he finally got let go, he went on a huge rant about how he's "the only person who does any work around here" and saying that he deserves more money than the people who have been there for longer and do more important work. Later we received an anonymous letter that was really obviously from him, claiming that the manager who fired him was secretly trying to take over the company. He was a bizarre kid.

This is circulating in Serbia, but with one of their politicians. Also: http://imgur.com/gallery/oOT0X quote:Tuesday night, I was heading out to go on a date. I was hit head on by a drunk driver going the wrong way at 75 mph. I have several fractured ribs, whole face is fractured, recently had surgery on an open fracture in my arm (humerus bone) and a broken ankle. No, you did not get hit at 120 km/h and only got broken bones. Why would she (or whoever) need to make this up? Even if it's true that the person in the photo was a victim of an accident, why do they feel the need to share it? And why go all out on the speed, making the whole thing impossible?

I've been thinking about this one a lot and there is one thing (but only the one thing) that for sure actually happened here. The guy told a really little kid they could have a cookie but they could not have it right now, and the kid flipped out. And maybe they once met an old lady who didn't give a poo poo about manners anymore. Maybe.

Oh boy.... http://imgur.com/gallery/84Lrk  " Vandalized due to my police support..... On Tuesday Night, 9-13-2016, between 9:30PM and 10:45PM, my van was tagged by a supposed Black Lives Matter "Activist" because I have 3 Thin Blue Line Decals (it represents the Police, the blue line, separating the good from the evil). The Van was parked in my Driveway in Florissant, MO. I am an Owner/Operator, and this is my only source of income. I don't want any sympathy, I just want to show that no one is safe from these "peaceful" activists." I give this til tomorrow afternoon before it comes out that this Missouri Good 'ol Boy did this himself.

Head on doesn't necessarily mean both parties were driving. She could be crossing the street, and the front of the other car, who's coming from the wrong side, hits her. I actually looked up the definition, since I was worried I could be getting it wrong. But no, head on means that it involves the front. If that's not the common usage there though, I guess that's possible

CannedMacabre posted:Oh boy.... A few years ago, I came home at 2AM, and a group of six Asian people were at the house across from me. I didn't think anything of it since that house had late night parties all the time, and I lived in Little Saigon, and I just wanted to sleep. The next morning, one of our neighbors was going door to door to ask if anyone had witnessed anything after midnight, and it turned out my neighbor's son's car had been spray painted with "White Power" and had its tires slashed. What I'm saying is the imgurian probably did it to himself because there's no other damage to his car. That's my story, thanks for reading.

Head on usually refers to the positioning of the victim (more specifically that the front of both vehicles collided, really). One generally doesn't say a pedestrian is hit head on because it doesn't really matter what way they were facing. Much like how you don't hear of them being t-boned or rear ended either.

Ron Roenicke posted:Back today with a incredibly important update re: cardboard and rain Ah, the good old "some of my friends are black" rears its head. And loving cardboard. That's the nail in the STDH coffin for me. Like it's really hard to get some enamel spray paint in a close enough hue to cover that poo poo? At least until he has the time/money to get the panels re-painted. If I saw a contractor van with patches of gray or off-white paint on it, I'd assume "ah, must have been some vandalism" at the worst. And that's if I'd even think anything of it at all.

I find it highly suspect that no functional damage was done. No tire slashing. No windows broken. No lights smashed. Just cheap, easy spray paint and an arrow pointing to the offending sticker. Also, I live pretty close to St. Louis on the Illinois side and I've never heard "PIG LOVER" in my life. Usually there is only one word that fills the space in "______ lover" in Missouri.
