Home owner gets the money 10% was a very nice gesture in my book

[@carolinewilliams9215]

Yeah The contractor was very greedy and I would have given him nothing

I'm Japanese. Japanese soldiers absolutely used their blades in WW2. They didn't carry full sized katanas very often, but they did carry Tantos. They were ceremonial, yes, but they were also not mass produced junk. Some were produced for soldiers, but many were family blades belonging to their ancestors dating hundreds of years prior. Blades that had been passed down for generations. They were terrified to lose them to Allies as souvenirs, so many were scuttled. They used them in close quarters like Americans used combat knives. Was it as romanticized as The Last Samurai? No. But they did use them. Japanese soldiers also weren't allowed to surrender, lest they lose their honor. When faced with overwhelming enemy forces, they would charge the Allies with blades drawn if their ammunition and grenades were depleted, or perform Seppuku to keep their honor. Hundreds of soldiers have been found on idlands such as Iwo Jima in caves having had performed Seppuku rather than surrender. They also regularly executed and tortured prisoners with them. Japanese soldiers continued to fight the war long after it ended, one soldier refusing to believe Japan had lost and continued to fight until 1972. Another was fishing beside his issued rifle in the 60s, knowing the war was over and being afraid to surrender. Japanese soldiers had been sold propoganda by Emperor Hirohito that Americans and the Allies were barbaric people who would r*pe and torture anyone they came across before killing them. This fear caused civilians to Seppuku en masse, as they were terrified of the Allies due to brainwashing through this propoganda. This is also the reason they fought so hard and refused to surrender, and also why they took almost no prisoners.

The riddle book is typical of the time. The answers were sold separately. Another example was Nuts To Crack, a sort of broadsheet of puzzles & riddles. Reference: London Labour And London Poor (1840)

WWII Japanese swords were not always mass produced. Some were family heirloom swords that had been in the family for 100s of years. And all were considered weapons and were used often to kill.

[@alexsatyawibawa6240]

I guess so, but his joke about bringing a sword to a tank fight makes me feel like it might have happened during the Soviet invasion of Manchuria in 1945 since he showed a T-34 as the tank in question.

This reminds me of another video I have seen of crazy renovations. One of them mentioned LAYERS of paint over the years. It would not surprise me that there would be anything of value hidden in the house that I grew up in, or even the one I am in now from the previous homeowners stashed away either in the attic or walls. Its like a scavenger hunt that you didn't know was happening!

A bit long story here Ouro Preto, Brazil is a city where most of Brazil gold was mined back in the 18th century (the city name means "black gold") Back then when the Lisbon earthquake in 1755 that destroied mos of the Portuguese capital (and what the earquake didnt destroy the tsunami did) there was a gold tax called "o quinto" (the fifth part), where all the Brazilian gold was taxed in 20% to be sent to Portugal as funds to help raise Lisbon Of course many people used some "creative ways" to evade part of the tax, hiding gold-dust filled urns in walls, under the houses, you name it.. Even saints wooden statues were hollowed out to hid gold inside Now and again some of those urns are found

For the riddles, I'm sorta at odds with the first one: What is it that makes everything visible but is itself unseen? - The two answers I'm juggling between are light and eyeballs. As for the second one, I had to look up the answer: What is it that is often brought to table, often cut, but never eaten? - A deck of cards. No clue about the 3rd one though.

[@tb6303]

For the first one, I thought of light, but not eyeballs. I would guess the answer is the eyes. For the second one, I thought of a knife because it is used to cut, but the answer you found makes more sense (it didn't occur to me that the object, itself, was being cut). No clue about the 3rd one, either.

There is a house somewhere along the Delaware River when George Washington and his party were trying to get across they had stopped at a place that had a well. The homeowners of this house happened to find it underneath their kitchen floor too. So they did the same thing they got it all restorated and put glass over the top and now you can see the well in which George Washington got his water for his men.

[@The_Blazement]

Drinking water is about the least interesting thing George Washington did, lol It's kinda cool but also boring somehow at the same time

Been to those churches in New Haven. Can't remember if I went to the basement or not but I knew about the graves in one or more of the 3 churches on the green. I think you had to have money to be buried like that. It makes sense to do it that way because the ground could be hard to dig in when it use to get below zero there.

In 2004 we moved into our house and there were bees in our wall, about 6x2 area of bee hive. We found out because there was honey leaking through the cracks of the wall and I took a taste. A bee man came and removed them, I got to stand in my room while 100’s of drugged bees flew around me.

[@corysavell6521]

That duck was an antique. The goblets too. Ever watched antiques roadshow? The ducks represent marriage and the "silver" wares were either from ceremony or gifts. Hidden probably because it was a dowry and the most prized posessions of original owners.

[@ShellyGraham]

The house where the $182000.00 was found. IMO the money belongs to the home owner. Not the Plumber. I mean, when they find say a broken pipe,do they share the costs with the homeowner? The original home owner who left it, sorry but when you purchase a property, everything left after signing is the new owners, unless there's some type of written agreement in the closing paperwork. For instance, when my parents sold our home in Eagle River, Alaska my mom had installed a white faux brick wall. Covering that wall was a gorgeous ivy that mom had trained. We're talking 12' x 8' . The new owners made certain that the ivy would be staying!

[@Datrebor]

I don't think the person that found the money had any legal claim to it as it was not his home. Also the people that used to live there does not have any claim to it any more as they sold the home and that includes anything left behind. If I was to find anything valuable I would never tell anyone else about it. I wonder if the person that damaged the comic could be sued for destruction of private property?

[@bobthegoat7090]

If the money is left unintentionally, then it is actually not necessarily the new homeowner's property.

@@bobthegoat7090 Unintentionally or not, when he sales the house that includes anything left, unintentionally, behind. Unless they had set an arrangement for any property he left when he sold the place. Possession is 9 points of the law.

Phobias like these are so weird. I had a work colleague, he is afraid of dogs... We were at our lockers and we were talking... I looked away for just a second because I saw other colleagues go outside... I looked back and he had just disappeared... I was like "😳😳😳hä?". I looked around but didn't see him anywhere. When suddenly a dog came in... A woman who was walking her dog passed by our work place and, I don't know how, but somehow he "saw" the dog coming (although from where we were, you can't see outside 🙈😄)... Turned out he ran in the toilet room😅 that was the first time ever I really saw that phobia happen, how it really is and how a person, who has it, behaves😅 the dog was adorable though... A tiny little dog🙈❤️ so nowadays I kinda understand☺️ I'd have your back although it probably wouldn't be there😅😉

1. If I found a bee colony, I'd call animal control. They know (or they know some one who knows) how to move a colony. 2. I know the narrator is only asking the question to be silly but, just to be clear, army soldiers don't go through customs. 4. BTW, did you know that, when shoes were first made after the dark ages, they were made so they could go on either the left or right foot. Ouch. #? (I lost count) -- $180,000 in the wall, found by the plumber. Yes, that's exactly how greed works. But you asked and I think the homeowner was being very fair offering 10% to the plumber as a finder's fee, it being their property. And, honestly, $18,000 is nothing to sneeze at. Because of his greed, he got a lot less. The basket behind the wall. I bet that was just forgotten when they cleaned out the storage area. Before cardboard boxes came along, baskets were often used as storage containers. What is it that makes everything visible but is, itself, unseen? Light What is it that is often brought to table, often cut, but never eaten? Playing Cards What is black and white and red all over?
