Was the address actually the sheriff's office or just some random abandoned Walmart?

Excellent choice to think of the pig balls website when having car troubles with a rental in a foreign country.

Here's their menu, and yes, you have to order the items as they are named and yes, the server does ask every table the question in the top right corner too. That menu would be way more classy if the cents part of the prices was in fractions.

In Toronto there is, or was basically a mob war, but with towing companies, which were probably owned by various crime organizations. Trucks getting burned, blown up, shot at, fist fights at the side of major highways, the whole thing.

Kenning posted:Gratuity and surcharge creep is related to the broad, slow-moving reduction in living standards, at least in the US. Profitability is an increasingly difficult proposition for business that actually sell a product or a service (rather than engaging in financial bullshit), but simply raising sticker prices to achieve profitability will scare away customers whose disposable income is continuing to drop. But using gratuities to supplement worker pay (rather than giving raises) and adding surcharges rather than increasing the sticker price, they're able to squeeze a bit of blood from the stone. It's a very short-term band-aid, and it's not going to work for long.

Reverse mortgages, they seemed so scammy to me the first time I heard of them but I have no idea what the scam actually is. Best I can come up with is, they give oldies a bunch of money for their houses, basically "buying" the house in all but title, owners keep paying the taxes, maintenance etc and when pop-pop and meemaw finally die or go to the old folks home, the "financial institution" gets the title/legal poo poo that says they own the home for rizzles, and then they sell the house for its (presumably) higher value than they paid for it. Is that more or less it? What about selling your life insurance policy?

I kinda sort of could have gotten scammed a couple months back. I bought a motor cover for my boat, but for whatever the gently caress reason, it could only be bought through Mercury USA, and not Canada. Shipped by Fedex. The website said something like "international orders might be subject to additional fees for customs duties, brokerage etc etc.". A day or so after I ordered, I got a call from "fedex" telling me that I had a shipment that was subjected to duty or some brokerage fees and I should press 1 to pay or something along those lines. I don't recall exactly. Having had to deal with that poo poo before though, I just figured I'd wait till they send me a notice telling me it wasn't going to be delivered due to additional fees, and to pick it up at the local shipping depot. A few days later I got an email saying my package had been delivered. Nothing about duties, or any other fees.

Professor Shark posted:I’ve almost done dumb on stuff like that too- at some point, everyone has a package they’re expecting. I think that’s how those scams work, dropping your guard. Yeah, I'm constantly getting emails for it, but the call was way too coincidental.

Volmarias posted:That's one of the things that gets called out in Meads, litigants in Canada will reference the US Bill Of Rights for their arguments, an important document which is also completely irrelevant to Canadian law. I see people (from Canada) posting conspiracy poo poo on facebook and they get fB jailed for 30 days or whatever and they're all like "MY FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS"!!!! Forgetting of course that we're in Canada. Or that Facebook is "private" property where free speech doesn't really exist as such.
