my rant

[cocoa_pleco]

sorry, just have to let it all off

first, in the morning, i heard a hissing in the basement. thought it was maybe just a powerhead or something. 5 hours later, went down and went to see what it was. I thought it might be a gas leak so i was worried. felt a squish under my shoes

the WHOLE back basement had a inch of water, water heater cracked.

next, my hands were dirty. no water either. my cousins apartment is a 5 minute drive and theres a washroom in the gym. went in, 2 10 year old kids bug me for change. I mumble youre not getting any. of course, some idiot locked the bathroom on the outside for the fun of it. went out, pest kids were far away.

I get to my car, *** holes bug me AGAIN for change, i go in the car, they jump on it and smear crap on it. I said **** off (odd for me, i have extreme patience) and they keep smashing on it til i leave. these kids are the ones that gang up on you, theyre not petty little things.

Next, i just go to 7-11 for some food. get to the car, and i see a semi with a guy in it and a woman. the woman screams call the cops to me. I thought its a joke or something. I stood for a minute, and she SCREAMED it. He said shut the **** up and starting going Mike Tyson on her and smacking the crap out of her. I went in and told the guy what was going on and called the cops. the semi left but they have cruisers looking for the semi. I wanted to go up and get the license plate but it was dark and i was worried the guy might have had a pistol or a bat

What f*****g kills me is i was on hold with the cops for 10 MINUTES. I told the dispatcher everything and she put me on hold, and within that 10 minutes is when the semi left. If they dispatched 2 cruisers right away the semi would have still been there

A+ day:help:

I don't miss the city because of a lot of that crap!
Go 100 miles due west and park for a while and enjoy the veiw! That'll clear your head,give your wheels a good work out(you pick the speed limit cause I ain't payin'):hmm3grin2orange: and you will probably feel a whole lot better!lol

I like the city but honestly crap like this is a pain. Lately its just been cops infront of the house every 3rd night over something, cars getting broken into, gangs around.

Still mad about the cops putting me on hold for so long, my parents car got broken into 5 nights ago and the cops were here in 2 minutes, yet theres a person actually being abused and it takes that long?

DANG! thats pretty bad man, sounds like one heck of a day, at least you came out clean and clear, that's a pretty bad response time for the cops, hope it gets taken care of duly. Keep your chin up man, maybe you'll get good news about these events in the future. Take a few minutes to relax in front of your tanks, have a cocktail or your preferred beverage, enjoy the fish, and just be glad your here, and didn't do anything but the right thing, you can't solve everyone's problems.

I get to my car, *** holes bug me AGAIN for change, i go in the car, they jump on it and smear crap on it. I said **** off (odd for me, i have extreme patience) and they keep smashing on it til i leave.

You must have a lot of patience, thats the point for me when the arms come outta the trunk, or from behind the seat of my truck.

...and the next time you hear hissing...don't wait 5 hours to go check it out...:14:

That is why my dad has his carry and conceal permit, and 3 pistols (38 special, 9mm and colt 45 with hollow tipped rounds lol). Theres not many bad areas like the city by me, but a couple and he has had to use it (not shoot, just aim).

I honestly could never live in the city, or in boondocks somewhere lol. I'm a suburban type of kid, and I'm going to live in one when I'm older, but probably down south.


Glad your ok though, but that sucks about the heater...If you were closer, I would send my dad your way, our service company fixes them lol

lol, the worst part is if it wasnt for that squish i would have left again without noticing the water

[jackson17]

And then in your mind it was a f*****g great...actually probably out loud lol

Frankly, young people have no respect for anyone any more much less themselves. They fear nothing because nothing happens to them. They treat school bus drivers, cops, parents and teachers all with total contempt because adults are raining on their parade. They wouldn't hold a door open for you if you were carrying an elephant much less a truck driver with a pallet of stock. They race thru Walmarts using every F letter word they can think of not caring that young families are within earshot.

Thank God there is also the great kids who were raised correctly and got a whipping when they needed it. They will be tomorrows shining examples while the others will be wearing orange suits.

Someone ended up with the WRONG truckdriver! I hope she wasn't killed and dumped.

Theres 12 year olds even here that have to get arrested and thrown in cruisers and even SWAT SUV's. its pathetic that they get fingerprinted and even jailed for a while.

the 2nd cop i talked too was horrible too, after i told him everything, he said something like "sooooooooo, what do you want me to do?" A persons getting beaten to death, everyone knows at any age if you see violence, call 911.

If it wasnt a semi, i would have parked my car behind it so he couldnt get out. I hope they at least found the semi and like you said she isnt sitting in a ditch on the highway
