Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


My years of watching Forensic Files have pretty much confirmed that the only reason anybody would take out a life insurance policy on someone is if they plan to kill them within the next six months.

Can the parent take the life insurance money for themselves without the child knowing anything about it when they get 18?

Depends who the policy owner is. The owner of the policy can always cash in if they want.

So can the beneficiary, but it's a little messier.

If you wait seven months before killing them, is it less suspicious. Asking for a friend.

Wheat Loaf posted:

Yeah, Luke was an essentially good guy and they were evil. It fits. And obviously Luke went bad when, like John Wilkes Booth, he converted to Catholicism later in life. And much like most Catholics have never read the Bible, Luke never read the ancient Jedi texts; underlining this is the fact that he is helpless until the Pope (Yoda), who he, as Catholic, worships instead of God, shows up and tells him what to do.

I have watched a lot of soverign citizen videos and read a lot of blogs. I have swapped my licence plates with a document that says "I am Moorish, I do not Consent". I have relinquished my insurance, drivers licence and now carry stacks of paperwork indicating how wrong the police are.

I tend to always travel with my kids in the car so they can watch how smart I am in order to teach them how much smarter I am than the police officers who think they can arrest me when there is no crime committed without victims. The Police CAN NOT arrest me if there is no victim, I do not need to consent to provide my identification. I have paperwork that show the articles of confederation to show I'm being illegally detained. I am a traveler and it is against the constitution to prevent me from traveling if I am not participating in commerce. I will also fight the jurisdiction of the maritime court of corporations of which I will not accept any attempts to create joinder with someone who wants to arrest the corporation Tater_salad, as I am a representative of the corporation tater_salad"

You're making this sound entertaining almost.


I've been lurking opiate communites for a few years, and have known people irl addicted. It's truly the worst poo poo and so tragic.

But to me codeine always seemed like a 'safe' opiate, despite how knowing how false that is. It just never seemed as dangerous to me.

I've no intentions of getting hooked on opiates. Financially I'm way too uptight to buy more. My past experiences with speed addiction nearly killed me. So gently caress that.

Its totally cliche'd and every single person experimenting with opiates says the same poo poo "hurr durr I'm only going to try it once or twice".
But come hell or high water I'm not loving getting hooked on it.

Ive only tried treshhold doses. At the moment my urges to smoke weed are far higher than anything.
But.. the scary part is... suddenly that lil sample baggie of heroin I have doesn't seem so intimidating anymore.

I'll keep y'all updated if I do become an addict but don't hold your breath on it happening.
I am stronger than that.

It's just amazing how he spins "almost died of a previous drug addiction" into an argument why he is less likely to become addicted.

But it's not unique, every single "responsible drug user" story on SA goes like this:
I've always been super careful with drugs, so it is not a problem for me. Except yesterday I went on a huge bender and almost killed myself. Which is why going forward, I will always be super careful. No I don't have a problem, what are you talking about? I just said I'm being super careful, what more do you expect from me?
