Yeah, at the very least the fire chief/marshal/whoever it was will raise hell over this.

Seth Pecksniff posted:I hope they sue this place for every red cent, especially if there's a trail of this person calling a whole bunch of people and them shrugging it off When I used to close my store, one night my key got stuck in the lock. I couldn't turn the key or remove it, passerbys couldn't either, and when I called my boss, he told me I'd just have to stay there until someone got the key out, and hung up. I am thinking we might get some good posts with VDay being the day after Superbowl.

However I wonder if there is a reason the dad did it and the family thinks she is overreacting. Like did she get experimented on? Who the gently caress knows! It’s crazy.

If the fire chief is anything like ones I've dealt with they'd probably personally make sure OP got in touch with a good lawyer and freely offer the formal incident report or something describing the nature of the event. Some of them practically live and breath by going berserk on businesses trying to gently caress around with fire code violations for minor things, much less an employee told to stay trapped in a potential death box overnight. pentyne fucked around with this message at 16:25 on Feb 13, 2022 |

Only met one fire chief in my life but he was in his 50s and showed up to an important civic function for the town in a Pokémon tshirt so I assume he has an account here.

Brawnfire posted:Wow. A long-form work of art that my wife, the woman I love, crafted. A long glimpse into her internal world, her values and fears and hopes and concerns about the world... bits of her humor, nuggets of her wisdom, even the flaws of her ignorance.

From comments to another story.quote:Absolutely right. I was a stay at home wife and student finishing my degree. He was the breadwinner. He kept a log of everything and then online banking made it easy for him. I could never purchase anything without an argument. If I bought take out, I should've cooked. He bought take out the very next day. He said he was just doing what everyone else at work did. I couldn't buy a vacuum cleaner but he bought an $80 remote control.

I admit they can overwhelm the casual listener. I'm a little wary of anything that presents people in mental health crises as "quirky" because the first thing that comes to mind is some tumblr high school poo poo. Not saying it's the case, but it would probably be obvious ~10 pages in. It's also clearly not a doorstopper of a novel if literally everyone else in the family could find time to read it, so taking an afternoon to read through it, maybe skim through just to get the general gist , is literally the least thing you can do for someone you married who achieved a major life goal.

My ex forced me to dress as Elsa from Frozen whenever we had sexquote:I really hope this is the right sub for this. I think enough time has passed (four years!) since this relationship ended that I can finally talk about it. I know that this might sound like creative writing, but I swear to god this is true. My ex-boyfriend had a fetish for Queen Elsa of Arendelle, from Disney’s Frozen. Be as sceptical as you want, I’m the one that had to deal with this bullshit. I was still a super religious fundamentalist at the time that this story took place, so I had no idea what a healthy relationship looked like. Now that I can look back on this, I can see just how strange this was.

I'm in the UK as well and I've yet to encounter any kind of kebab shop serving you food on a skewer lol. Ask for a kebab and you're going to get thinly sliced and lightly spiced meat served over flatbread, usually with onions and a yoghurt based sauce of some variety.

Kebab/kabob (the spelling doesn't matter since it's just a transliteration from arabic anyway) is a whole huge genre of food with many many varieties. It's not quite as overloaded a word as curry, but it's up there.

Also you're describing a donner, cooked on a big skewer. If you get chicken, it's cooked on a little skewer. I know it's confusing as these delicacies are usually enjoyed after ten pints as you stagger home from your local.

Look at the cooler at the front, you'll see a bunch of meat on metal sticks. That it's no longer on the stick by the time you get it is irrelevant. And as mentioned, go into a kebab shop - what's that giant hunk of doner meat rotating on do you think, anyway? Oh, a big long vertical metal stick. What do we call those?

I used to know a guy who would make a big show of pronouncing gyro "hero", probably because he wanted people to realize he was the only person smart enough to make the connection between the word gryo and the origin of the "hero" sandwich (there isn't one). "I think I'll have my hero with feta. Are you also getting a hero? What are you getting on your hero? Ahh $5.99 not a bad price for a hero."

I think this one was posted in this thread: quote:UPDATE: after reading all of the comments telling me no one cares about our wedding, the vacation doesn’t sound like it’d be fun at all, I’m being controlling, I’m being a selfish and an entitled bridezilla, I clearly don’t value my family etc etc, my fiance and I have decided to cancel our wedding all together!!! We’ll have a small ceremony for us and our parents and then my husband and I will use the big beautiful mansion we rented out as our honeymoon!! We’ll message the Airbnb host tomorrow about moving the date up. We’re very excited!! I realized neither of us wanted to cater to anyone because the only people that matter when it comes to our marriage is us!! gently caress everyone else lol! Which still makes her sound insane, but this update cautiously makes me on her side... Cautiously... quote:Here’s some things wrapping up my post. I couldn’t add that much to the post, so here it is.

Who the gently caress knows! It’s crazy. I'm assuming it's one of those things that start out innocent enough; like he is struggling to bond with his daughter, so he starts making notes of her likes and dislikes, preferred topics of conversation, and such. As coping mechanisms go, that's fairly inoffensive. He notices it smoothing things over, so he then starts jotting down other things; who her friends are, what they're like, how she professes to feel about her life and relationships. That's a fair bit more alarming, but could theoretically be settled with an open and honest conversation about how and why that is wrong. But his behavior keeps escalating and now he's got lists of theories about her sexual partners and time tables of her comings and goings during the day, and gradually he's inched his way into "run and don't look back" territory.
