    How is it that you and I both saw the same exact reviews within the past 24 hours?

      He was asking me because I guess he didn't actually know that I really lived here.
      Oh ok..I thought you were next door neighbors.

      Anyways, It's been a while since I've had neighbors so I don't know how any of that social interacting works anymore..
      I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

      I miss the old days of Operation Sports :(

        You just give a wave and hope they don’t want to really talk.

            They're all about how customers have uncontrollable bowel movements as a result of eating just a few of them. It's hilarious.

                My maniac neighbor and his agent of chaos girlfriend were at it again today, and I don't know what to make of it.

                She (the agent of chaos) has changed her appearance. A brand new dude has come to stay with them. This isn't uncommon.

                Brand new dude knocked on my door, I asked who is it. He starts rambling at a volume too low for me to hear through the door. I open the door slightly with my foot blocking it from opening further. He rambles about asking to use my phone.

                I'm extremely poor at thinking on my feet but I actually came up with something, I said "oh I have a broken tracfone I can't even make outgoing calls". He asks if he can make a text. I said "I'm sorry, I can't help you, sorry, man".

                Am I a jerk?

                That was my initial thought.

                5 minutes later I took my garbage out and the dude was on the balcony with the agent of chaos, talking on a phone. wtf?

                Maniac finally came home an hour later, new guy and agent of chaos got into the vehicle he brought over, and drove away.

                fast forward to the night time walk for my dog, the vehicle is back, new dude and agent of chaos parked it in a sneaky hidden spot away from the camera. I'm actually nervous to take him out.

                so I hurry him out real quick, he does his business, and we hurry back inside. if they were planning anything it's too late, they're still in the truck smoking.

                I was right not to lend new dude my phone, right? I'm not a jerk?

                  Saw that character actor John Saxon passed away today too. Was going to make a thread in Entertainment, but didn't think enough people would know him outside of Enter the Dragon and Nightmare on Elm Street.


                  RIP.

                    but Maniac & Agent of Chaos would be excellent on the small screen. I think they are more palatable in smaller, 30 minute doses. as a sitcom, it would make an excellent replacement for Duncanville/Bless the Harts (worst 30 minutes on Sunday nights)

                      Seriously, I don't think you were a jerk. With all the cash apps on phones and security features disabled just for convenience, it would be easy for someone to get a hold of some money.

                      Or they could access your personal information. Or run off with your phone.


                      I know of 2 instances of people leaving their phones behind, and then being found and used by someone else. One was a boss' boss who left his phone unlocked and all his apps logged on. We got a bunch of racist internal messages. Then racist tweets were sent out for the public to see. In less than 30 minutes, an outsider had caused damage to an organization because the boss' boss couldn't lock and secure his phone.

                      The second instance was a local high school kid, who left his phone in the library. Someone found it and accessed his account and uploaded his photo album to a server. It took less than 5 minutes. Then the high school kid's photos were spread on the internet - some of them inappropriate and illegal. When his high-school-aged girlfriend discovered her nude photos were on the internet, she became suicidal and had to seek treatment.




                      I don't think you were a jerk. You went with your initial gut instinct, which is usually right.

                        Different story completely, but I don't know if I mentioned the time I found a Samsung Galaxy at McDonald's that was completely unlocked and all. I tracked down the owner by making calls to recent contacts, and landed on the woman's husband. Met them in a Safeway parking lot, and she was more than grateful. I even remember her when she was in the restaurant.

                        Anyway, funny bit about me calling the husband, he picked up and said: "Hi, honey." Not necessarily unusual, except that his wife was sitting right next to him in the car as he said that. As I was quickly thinking of how to respond to what he said, I faintly hear her go: "Huh?" Haha.

                        Didn't think once about stealing any information though.
