why would you even bother buying master keys when you can just unlock all of them with a bent paperclip

I never understood the purpose of buying locks that were required to be unlockable by the people most likely to steal your things, anyway

There's I think one series that uses a dimple key that's actually a worthwhile lock, and the rest make Master locks look like Fort Knox.

I feel like if you care enough about that kinda stuff, you'll just do what Deviant Ollam does and travel with firearms.

(The TSA legally can't open a container that houses a firearm for obscure reasons; I'm not suggesting he waves his gun around at the airport to skip baggage screening)

Oh yeah, not saying the OP was in the wrong here though she probably burned some bridges by going scorched earth in public. That aside, the parents can probably recoup most if not all of whatever the kid spent and lock down their accounts more effectively in the future.

If it were the first or second time, possibly. Given that it is the 4th time this has happened, their bank will not be reversing any transactions without at least a police report, and depending on the details of the transaction maybe not even then. And they shouldn't, because it's obvious the parents are doing nothing to prevent this.

depends on the state, but the parents would be liable for fraudulent criminal acts done by children. and if she's stealing from family it's less likely the courts would be involved, unless auntie presses charges

oh, definitely not. those charges are legitimate in the eyes of the seller, and the bank would agree. you can't do take-backsies because your kid emptied your bank account on a device your family owns

Apple got hit with some FTC fines over purchases made by kids, and both they and the Play store will issue refunds almost without question for "kid got access to account" requests. Especially since it mostly hits the app owners instead of the Apple/Google, and where else we they going to go? And any physical stuff just usually needs to be in its packaging, though these parents of the year may not have prevented them from getting opened.

Power Khan posted:

I'm not totally sure what he's asking

Girl (29F) I’ve (30M) been seeing saw a message from my FWB.
[new]
I’ve been seeing Cassy casually for about six weeks.

My FWB and I hang out every so often, max twice a week but we often go a week or two without seeing each other. I haven’t been seeing her even though she hits me up about once a week, and we haven’t seen each other in the last two weeks. I was going to call her this week to explain that I’ve enjoyed our time but I’m not interesting in continuing.

I dropped her off and she gave me a half-hearted kiss before looking at me sadly and getting out.

I’m really interested in taking our relationship further but now I don’t know what to do. She texted me last night around 9 asking how I feel about her and I sent her a text that reads “i really enjoy your company and have been waiting for the right time to ask if you’d like to be exclusive. I’m interested in taking things further.”

Oh yeah, I was loving another girl for the last month, and the only reason I haven't hosed her recently is because we were too busy with work, but I was totally going to end things with her next chance I got, yessir. By the way now that you bring it up want to be "exclusive"? Like in the sense I'll stop loving the other girl who I have been with for the entire duration of our relationship, and who I have almost certainly not told I had started dating someone else. I was totally going to though.

What a dirtbag. 6 weeks is way into the "assumed exclusive" zone unless you're completely upfront. I don't really know the exact amount of time you can be in a new relationship before needing to break off with a FWB, but it's certainly a lot less than 6 loving weeks. Like, I would imagine if you hit it off with somebody and you go out with them a couple times, they seem interested in you too, time to drop the FWB. Like as soon as you think there's a "relationship" at all, you gotta stop with the other partner.

You're better off not locking your checked baggage so the zippers don't get damaged from being open with a pen. Just don't keep anything of value in checked luggage, ever. Better yet, learn how to pack everything you need in a travelmax carry on.

Yeah I have a lot of first hand experience with this and pretty much if you want to keep something don't pack it in your checked luggage.

Also like 99% of the time its not gonna be TSA that jacks your poo poo its either the baggage handlers or someone comes and takes your poo poo off the carousel before you get to it.

I know that in every major airport the TSA areas have about 8 billion cameras that cover everything. I can't speak for the smaller ones but everything in the screening areas is on camera.

The older sister needs to cut ties with the family now to minimize the future nightmare of the youngest sister stealing CCs, identities, cars, drugs, etc. while the parents bail her out every time. It's shocking how long someone can go on financially abusing family and friends when the family/social group as a whole is too afraid or unwilling to escalate to "serious consequences".

Everyone having to hide their wallets because she'll steal anything not bolted down and being regarded as a "quirk" is some Stockholm level mental gymnastics. There are r/relationships post where this behavior has gone on into the person's 40s doing the exact same things time and time again to family and friends and no one ever filing police reports or taking a stand because "family"

you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

once you've done this and graduated to knowing how to travel, you can level up to learning to pack everything into a single underseat backpack so you don't get stuck having to curbside check your poo poo after everyone jams their poo poo in sideways and fills the rest of the overhead with their goddamn coats

I would go further and say that the parents enabling their daughter's behavior is child abuse, because stuff like this can be handled if addressed properly early but they're just letting it spiral. They aren't raising her to be an eventual functional adult.

Come on hee-ho, just give us 300 more macca



My (39f) best friend (43m) got so drunk at Thanksgivjng he poo poo himself.

quote:

My husband and I hosted Thanksgiving dinner at our home we recently bought. Only invited a few family members and my best friend (David) and his husband. I've known David for many years and his alcoholism is well known to everyone in our group of friends. There's only been a handful of times I've hung out with him pre-blackout in the last couple years. I naively thought he wouldnt blackout around my family and young child. He was ok at first but at some point crossed over. I knew it when he wouldn't stop wagging his tongue behind my husband's friend (J). It was so awkward because J could see me making faces at David telling him to stop. David's husband just kind of rolls his eyes and tries to ignore it. And David just kept on. Would even size him up if J walked toward him. Eventually I pulled him outside and told him he was being disrespectful and gross. He blackout apologized and told me he poo poo his pants. He didnt want a change of clothes. We discussed AA and therapy for a minute. The next day I told him I love him and sent a link to some local gay AA groups. He didn't respond and I haven't heard from him since. Was hoping for a sober apology. It's making me madder each day that passes. I feel like a hypocrite because we used to party together and encouraged each other to drink until a blackout. Starting a family changed all that for me. Now his alcoholism is getting worse with no incentive to change. I kicked around the idea of putting a hold on our friendship until he gets help, but afraid I'll end up just losing a friend.

Dream Man (literally) Won't Let Me In

quote:

I've (26F) have been dating someone (31M) for the last three months. We've fallen for each other really quickly, and are moving closer and closer to a committed relationship. There's a deeply emotional connection between us.

There's one (big?) problem...I have yet to see the inside of his apartment. In the beginning it just worked out that my apartment was closest to all the things we enjoy doing together.

He has said that he is deeply ashamed of the state of his apartment, saying that he is overwhelmed by the condition it's in, and doesn't know where to start. He has a cat and a dog. I have yet to meet his cat, and get to spend very little time with his dog.

Is it worth pressing this? I don't feel comfortable getting deeper into the relationship until I've at least been inside of his space. Really don't want this to be an ultimatum, but it feels that it may be.

*Edit: definitely no wife or kids in the mix. I've met his friends and coworkers, and they all attest. When he does need to get something from his apartment when we're together, he asks me to wait in the car/outside of the unit.

Besides the obvious of him not wanting you in his life any further, behind his door lies either: all the trash he's hoarded, his wife and kids, or an army of blowup dolls
