Apparently, in most places, you have a grace period to change the name on a birth certificate without having to involve the courts, so Harlot mom could easily fix this.

Pope Corky the IX posted:Smoking wasn't banned on airplanes entirely until 2000. Why do you think some seats still have ashtrays? There are actually a few airlines that still allow smoking on commercial flights: Air Algeria, Cubana and Iran Air. mom and dad fight a lot posted:I think people forget just how everything smelled like smoke in the 90's. It wasn't just bars late at night or in alleyways, it was everywhere. I grew up with parents who smoked in the house, car, everywhere. I never realized just how much everything in that house reeked of smoke, including me and my brother, until I left for college and wasn't constantly in an environment where everything smelled like smoke. Gnoman posted:I remember in my freshman year of high school I was talking to another student about a cleaning mishap I had while washing the walls. She was dumbfounded that I talked about washing the walls like it was a normal thing, I was extremely confused that she didn't know washing the walls was part of routine cleaning. It wasn't until ten or fifteen years later that I realized that her parents didn't smoke, while mine did. Thankfully, my mom finally banned smoking in the house after she hosted my cousin's kids when they were in town to see a friend, and heard through back channels that they came home reeking of smoke. She then decided to clean the curtains in the living room, took them down, and they were saturated with brown sludge to the point that they had to be thrown away.

Pope Corky the IX posted:I remember my grandmother taking me to the bingo hall when I was a kid and you literally couldn't see the ceiling because of how much smoke was in that room. When I was in grade school, they would host bingo on Thursday nights as a fundraising thing. The old guy who ran it would start setting up in the afternoon, while school was still in session, and he would be smoking a huge cigar the entire time. This wasn't a big building, and he easily stunk up the entire school within a half hour. That was the unmistakable smell of Thursday afternoon. Wii Spawn Camper posted:I asked a flight attendant why they still had ashtrays and they told me it was so they could have somewhere to put out cigarettes when people tried to smoke during the flight. Now you have the vape crowd whining "Why can't I use it on the plane? It's just water vapor!!"

Yeah, "seniority rules" only works when people put in their time and move on, not when you can be somewhere for 6 years and apparently still be at the very bottom, constantly getting poo poo upon.

I don't think that one ever got updated either. I kind of want to know what happened to that lady who announced that she was leaving her husband to go be a second wife/concubine to some old boyfriend in Qatar, since the guy's parents now had their racially pure grandchildren by his first wife and basically said "OK, we have grandchildren of the proper skin tone, so you can have your fun with the white lady now".

If you want to experience actual rejection from entering a bar/club, just go to Berghain, where countless people will queue for hours only to be told 'nein', because they had an article of clothing that wasn't black enough, were heard speaking a language that isn't German, or exhibited the slightest hint of a smile. They are infamous for having turned away the DJ that was set to perform there at one point.

DeeplyConcerned posted:First of all, they're just wrong. it's the driver that gets the ticket. It's a loving moving violation. Ticketing the passengers just doesn't make sense. Like how would that even work? Depends on where you are, as the policy varies between states/provinces/countries, and you just write the passenger a ticket like any other. You can get tickets for non-motoring-related offenses too.

Baronjutter posted:Also no bar is that special, there's no establishment worth waiting more than 5-10 min to get into. Just go somewhere else if there's a big line. Clubs/bars with huge lines are rarely any good, they exist pretty much to make a certain type of person feel cool and special to be in the *exclusive* bar. Our monkey brain sees a big line and people being rejected and thinks that makes us special if we manage to get in. Inside the drinks are just more expensive, that's it. There's a loving brunch place by my house that always has a 45+ min line with huge crowds gathered out front. It used to be above average, but they earned a reputation and advertised heavily and now they coast on mediocre food and the huge line tricking people into thinking its surely the most fancy and exclusive brunch spot in town. There's way better bunch a block away for less money and no round-the-block lineup. The same goes for places with huge cover charges, security with metal detectors at the door, "if you aren't drinking you're outta here" policies and such. Maybe you deal with it if there's a band you really want to see or something, but if you just want to relax and have a drink, go somewhere else. Also, if you are a non-creepy adult, you probably don't actually want to hang out at some place where being 25 makes you the oldest person in the room by several years.

Baronjutter posted:The crazy thing is if she just said she'd like her brother to live with them for a while so he could go to a better school, husband probably could have been convinced. I think for that to be completely above board, one of them would have to become the legal guardian of her brother. People will frequently use the address of a relative to get their child into a better school district, and it's considered fraud. Schools can and do ask for proof of residency from the parents/guardians when changing districts. That said, they probably could have pulled something where they show the school a fake utility bill to prove residency, and as long as she always intercepted any mail from the school (do schools send physical mail anymore?), her husband would have never known.

mystes posted:Yeah I don't know if potential employers care more in the UK or wherever the OP is but in the US in general I wouldn't think it would matter that much? Depends on the company. Some places apparently ask for college entrance test scores or transcripts from people who have been out of school for decades, which basically shuts out anyone who didn't go to school in the US, or didn't take the path of a traditional student. The hiring process at Canonical has a notoriously bizarre focus on high school. quote:Mark begins our call by saying: "I've read your essay responses. You say you didn't go to high school. Generally I only want people who are in the top 5%. You obviously can't prove that applies to you. So tell me why I should believe you were the equivalent to the top 5% of your peers at 16."

Wii Spawn Camper posted:In my old apartment, the lady upstairs had just moved in and she flushed like 100 wet wipes down the toilet. They clogged up right at my bathroom, and backed up a bunch of gross stuff into my bathtub and bathroom floor. I discovered this by stepping in it right after I woke up. They had to use a hydro jet to cut through all the wipes and unclog the line. I also got the landlord to pay to clean it up, but I’ll never forget the sight of it. Some people I know moved into a new house and within a week the toilets were backing up. The people who were there before had bidets, so they flushed almost no toilet paper, but within a week of the new residents using "flushable" wipes, the old, root-filled, clay pipes were blocked, and every drain in the house was backing up. They had to have a plumber come out for an emergency call to snake the drain that was quite expensive.
