DoctorTristan posted:By ‘better friends’ you mean ‘friends who would tell this to your face’? Yeah, thats a tough one. On the one hand, your friend is an adult who is responsible for making their own decisions and just telling them over and over again how bad their situation is probably doesn't help, and risks getting them shut out of your life (voluntarily or involuntarily) even further. On the other hand, honesty is important, and maybe they need a wake-up call. Its like how delicately and/or how many times can you responsibly tell someone, "hey dude, you have a giant growth on the side of your head, maybe you should get that removed."

That and the idea of making a secret group chat to bitch about the guy's wife seems pretty immature.

Imo it depends on whether your friend’s poor decisions are on the scale of ‘pissing upwind’ or ‘pissing all over the bikes outside a hells angels bar’.

The Lone Badger posted:Murdered by cops during a no-knock warrant. I hate how the first thing the cops did was ask "Do you have antifreeze?" Everyone who owns a car and drives in an area where the temperature can go below freezing should have antifreeze just as a matter of good maintenance practices. "Do you have something very common? Well now you are a suspect."

Relationship with a Thai massage girl? am I insane? u/RomanianTrump quote:I went to Thailand on vacation and went into a massage shop that does everything except actual sex (penetration). Me and the girl clicked like crazy. We are both 25 and for the next few days she stayed with me every day and we had so much fun, laughed like crazy, she was super sweet, packed my bag, ironed my clothes, gifted me a sweet necklace and told me not to forget her when I get home.

Whorelord posted:Got sent an anonymous screenshot of all my (28m) best friends bagging out my wife (28f) in a group chat. quote:They are also complaining about when I hosted a UFC men’s night at my place, and how my wife came out and pulled the plug to the stereo and shut down the night because she was in a bad mood. They also spoke of another occasion where my wife banned a girlfriend of my buddies from coming to our house because my buddie’s girlfriend smokes cigarettes. Your wife sucks and your friends do too. After examining your case for a good 15 seconds, I have determined the common factor in this to be you. You suck,  from your wife and friends because you are poisoning their lives.

Found out husband is the one stealing shallots from neighborhood gardensquote:This has been going on for several years. I live in a small rural neighborhood with an HOA where the houses are spread apart but neighbors are expected to keep their houses and yards nice. As with most HOAs, some members can get a little carried away with the seriousness of it all. There will be passive aggressive emails about escaped dogs, shirtless runners, unsightly fencing, etc. It really annoys my husband. I just laugh at it

Tater Love

[update](AZ) Our neighbor's dog was apparently poisoned and because we had complained about the dog barking, police wanted to go through our "internet history." Original here: https://www.reddit.com/r/legaladvice/comments/a75f0o/az_our_neighbors_dog_was_poisoned_police_want_to/ So thank you to everyone who responded. And I guess thank you to everyone in the DMs who accused me of torturing dogs by forcing the owners to keep them inside because god forbid, I want to sleep in my own house. Just to allay the fears of the other nice DM's, I did not in any way shape or form hurt the dog. Also a legit thank you to everyone who offered tips on anti-bark devices, the problem is these people aren't next door to us (which goes to show how loud the dogs are) so we don't have the ability to set up any sort of device. I took the advice of 99.9% of the posters and did not call the officer back on Monday night. I also showed my wife this thread and she was pretty convinced so thank you for all the rational responses. I called a criminal defense attorney first thing yesterday morning. He was very cool and said that he didn't want to waste our time any money because the chances of the DA actually pursuing this were slim to none. He did tell me to not answer any more questions and if the police did come for me again, I could refer them to him or if god forbid they arrested me, he gave me the number of his answering service. He said that he had a good friend who worked as detective and he'd try put a call in to figure out "off the record" what was really going on. So basically nothing happened yesterday (of course the other dogs are still barking, even as I type this) but I just heard (Wednesday morning) from the attorney and basically he had talked to his detective friend who looked into it. Basically regardless of what the neighbors say, there is actually zero evidence of them owning three dogs. In fact the best evidence that the now dead dog ever existed were my calls to animal control, the mediation records and the judges ruling. The people could not provide any pictures, social media posts, any shot records, vet bills or purchase receipts for any of the dogs, let alone one that died. They also had not done any sort of medical exam to prove the dog had been poisoned and they immediately buried the dog in the desert when they found it dead (for all I know they buried the dog instead of taking to the vet, they are the trashiest people I've ever encountered). The can't even really remember where they buried it (or don't want to say). So with almost no evidence of the dog ever existing, let alone being poisoned we shouldn't hear from the police again. So our complaint to animal control from last Thursday is still on the books. The lawyer is going to refer us to a civil attorney who he thinks will take our case to bring a civil suit against the dog owners. Our city and county ordinances very clearly state that dogs can't bark for more than 15 minutes a day and you have the right to an expectation of quiet in your own home. The criminal lawyer doesn't know how successful we'll be but he does think that maybe the threat of lawsuit will get them to address the barking problem, because it would be easier them to just bring the dogs inside as opposed to a court case which they stand a chance of losing.
