The tips were shared with everyone at the end of the day and weren't a lot. I might get like 20$ a week and over time it built up. I also worked 60 hrs a week and never had free time to go anywhere and spend the money. I also didnt realize I could use the register to exchange for large bills. I was young and dumb.

Kicked a Dwarf (self.LegalAdviceUK)quote:So over the weekend I was in a bar with a girl I've been seeing for a few weeks. It was early so there were no bouncers yet and this guy who is a dwarf walked in. This guy wanders round the pubs from time to time and he has a reputation for getting absolutely hammered and exposing himself to women. I've seen him do this probably a dozen times over the years but this was the first time he did it to a woman I was with. top comment posted:Are you from Inverness by any chance? If you're talking about Davie Gnome, I wouldn't worry. He's a loving menace and I don't think a weekend goes by where he's not getting kicked in the head. If not by somebody else, then by himself. The Police won't waste their time over an assault claim filed by him unless it's life threatening.

A friend [28M] tried to surprise me [27F] with a birthday present and it backfired hard. What do I even say to him? Alright so this happened last night and I'm still kind of reeling. I'm going to try and break down this sequence of events as concisely as possible because otherwise we'll be here all day, but if anyone needs clarification on anything just ask and I'll do my best. Last night at 9PM someone rings the doorbell. I'm not expecting guests and my two roommates [30s M/F] are asleep so I ignore it. Doorbell rings again so I go to check through the peep hole. It's pitch black outside and our porch light isn't on so all I can see is a vaguely dude shaped outline, but he looks big. Decide I'm not answering that while I'm the only person downstairs. Man outside continues to knock and ring doorbell. It's been ten minutes and by the 4th ring I'm getting antsy. Roommates have been woken up by the noise, I tell them what's going on. Man rings 3 more times and the knocking is getting more aggressive. Male roomie opts to call the police at this point since we have no idea who this is or why they're being so insistent. We wait ten more minutes for police to arrive. It's been nearly half an hour since this started and our mystery visitor continues to knock and ring the bell throughout. Then female roomie gets a text on her phone from a mutual friend of ours asking "Is everything alright? I'm trying to drop off OP's birthday present." Sure enough I open the door and there's Bob (mutual friend) standing there looking incredibly confused. I proceed to tell him he's scared the absolute heck out of me. For reference Bob and I have not been in contact for nearly four months after I had to drop the meetup we were both part of. He hadn't even left a happy birthday message on my facebook timeline, I'd figured the friendship had largely fizzled out. I certainly wasn't expecting him to show up on my doorstep unannounced on a Monday night. While I'm trying to figure out what he was thinking (apparently he'd wanted it to be a nice surprise gift and this was the absolute earliest he could swing by) the police finally arrive and we have to explain what happened to two vaguely amused police officers who give him a lecture about visit etiquette and send him on his way. FAQ (from friends I've talked to about this) Q: Why didn't you call out through the door? A: Our front door is a solid oak slab surrounded by equally solid stone walls, there's no window or pane of thinner material that lets sound carry. I could scream bloody murder and no one outside would hear it. Q: Why didn't older male roommate open the door once everyone was up? A: By that point knocking/ringing had increased in frequency and intensity and none of us felt like it was safe. The three possibilities that presented themselves were that this was a drunk guy who had the wrong house, an abusive ex boyfriend of female roomie, or someone less than all there mentally. Q: Does Bob have a crush on you? A: This question came up surprisingly often but yes Bob had asked me out shortly after we first met, but I declined. I've since gotten engaged to a lovely woman. I don't know if romantic feeling was what motivated a surprise late night birthday visit after four months of radio silence but I guess I wouldn't rule it out. Q: Why did Bob keep it up for nearly half an hour instead of calling or texting after the third unanswered ring? A: Bob is Autistic, this would be far from the first time he's been clueless about social niceties and he said as much when asked by the police. It didn't occur to him that someone who keeps ringing your doorbell after not getting an answer would be in any way unsettling to the inhabitants. He also thought we could see it was him (we could not). Q: Has Bob ever shown up unannounced before at a place you were and/or otherwise been inappropriate with you? A: Not at all, that's part of why he wasn't even in the top 50 people I would have guessed while we were trying to figure out who it was. The Question: Bob wants to apologize, he's texted asking if we can meet up so he can do it in person. I don't know how to respond, or even if I should respond. I don't know if I'm even mad at him it's more like the idea of trying to explain why three knocks/rings is just right but 15+ is kind of frightening is exhausting. I know it would take more than one try before he got it. I know he's sorry he upset me but doesn't really understand why I was upset, and the prospect of trying to unpack all the layers to this wears me out just thinking about it. I guess should I bother meeting up with him? Would it do any good? I'm not actually looking to rekindle the friendship, but I understand this was a well-intentioned gesture with abysmally poor execution and on some level getting coffee to smooth things over sounds nice. Like a physical gesture of putting it behind us. But part of me also feels like giving him a firm "no thanks" and resuming radio silence is the least stressful option. It also feels kind of mean. TL;DR: A friend I hadn't spoken to in four months shows up at my door with a surprise birthday present. Problem is I didn't know it was him and he spent 30 minutes ringing the bell and knocking on the door trying to get someone to open it until police showed up. Now he wants to apologize but I kind of just want to go back to not talking. Is it better to let him get it out or tell him thanks but no thanks?

My (29f) husband (32m) isn't comprehending what it means to be separated. My husband and I have been married for almost 7 years. We have been going through a lot these past two years because of my husband being unable to keep his vows to me. The last argument that we've had involved me having to jump out of a window and spraining my wrist because he wouldn't let me leave out the front door. It was actually HIS idea for us to be separated because we just can't get along but a divorce also isn't an option for either of us. I'm getting married one time and one time only. I've told him that I was willing to go to counseling or anything so that we wouldn't have to be separated but he disagreed and thought it was for the best. As I was saying, he was the one who brought forth the idea that we should spend some time away from each other. He didn't want to move out of the house so we were still living together for about a month until I decided to start staying in a hotel because the animosity and tension in the house was too much. We did talk about what we expected out of the separation. We agreed that we could date whoever we wanted and that basically there were no rules, great but we would still keep tabs on one another and communicate when it came to shared finances. I spoke to him on the phone and told him that I was considering taking out some money so that I could rent myself an apartment and not have to depend on my family for a place to stay. I told him that I just wanted to take out some money for a deposit and some furniture but then I'll set up my own bank account and take it from there. He disagreed with me doing this. He told me that he didn't understand why I was renting an entire apartment when we already have a home.... I've explained to him that we are separated so I need my own space. Separated means not together. Not by him. I know that this separation is just temporary but I need my own space and I hate staying in hotels. He calls and texts me every single day. I don't understand how he expects us to get some space from each other if he's doing the same thing he was when we were still together. It's never anything important he just asks to FaceTime or to see what I'm up to. I've explained to him that he has to stop doing this because this goes against everything that we are trying to do. We are trying to have a break from one another so that we can think and heal but he's just not following suit. Tl;Dr: Husband and I are separated but he is constantly contacting me and not giving me space

A Wizard of Goatse posted:If it just took a phone call to SWAT somebody into involuntary no vaguely weird child of a conservative family would ever spend a night outside. The commitment may well have been bullshit but there is zero possiblity that's the whole story you cant swat someone into a 72hr hold but if you can prove your family you can sure as poo poo do it with a phone call to the cops. 51/50 laws are extremely vague and up to personal discretion of the cop / emt. You dont need to prove they are a danger to themselves or others thats what the hold is for. You just have to assert that they are.

He can't wander around, flailing his junk at people, with no fear of consequences. The law is for everyone, not just those who are six feet tall. Being disabled (yes, I am) does not give me a free pass to act like an rear end in a top hat.

I don’t think it’s funny that he’s a little person, I don’t think it’s funny (per se) that he got kicked, but I do think it’s funny that that top commenter read “masturbating little person somewhere in the UK” and was immediately able to be like “Oh, you met Davie!”

How to “un-register to vote”quote:This is happening in New York. I am currently being harassed by my neighbors because I’m a registered Democrat in an apartment with apparently majority are “republican”. I have no idea how they found out my political party. But I’ve gotten harassing letters in my mailbox and knocks at my door. So far the people coming to my door have been old ladies telling me about pro-life and what not. I just want this to end. Is there a way for me to just “un-register” and just be done with everything? I hope LAOP votes to spite them and is successful in getting them all arrested for harassment, gently caress those people
