"I love true crime" Proceeds to not call the police and put themselves in danger by investigating by themselves and offering ride to *a total stranger*.

[@_k_a_t]

That story really bothered me lol… fully inserting yourself into a “scary” situation for no reason, and then telling everyone how scary it was 😂😂😂

[@TheGateux]

@@_k_a_t I was most surprised by the sentece "now he listens when I tell him I can see a body"... how often does she see a body lying on the street??

[@kathryncumberland]

In Story 2, the OP said that now their husband listens when they say there's a body on the side of the road. How often does that happen to them?!

[@candiedpandie]

I thought the same thing LOL

[@JessicaSuedfeld]

She was joking hahahaha 😂

[@g1rl_veteran]

I just read the 2nd story this morning and I was thinking that same thing!

[@hayasheeeesh]

Felt bad for the person in the penultimate story. Imagine getting nearly kidnapped and your mom blames it on what you're wearing.

[@blackrose5838]

This would be my villain origin story and exactly something my own mother would say

[@HeyIwasaValedictorian]

Props for 'penultimate' 😁👍

[@cheyennetetrault3213]

The second story was sorta nice to hear that some people stopped. It’s scary to help people these days but it’s nice to know that someone who did indeed need a kind gesture revived one.

[@nerrissarichards]

The story where the mother blames the child, stating her outfit and long legs are the reason for the nasty man’s actions pisses me off!!!

[@crazymulatto8981]

On the NYC subway listening to Let's Read. Always a great way to pass the time.

I played this last night to go to sleep, then replayed this am to actually hear the stories. I’m assuming I’m not the only one to do this! Thanks for the stories Joel, and Merry Christmas! 🎄👍🎅

When the second story started I remembered a news story about a drunken woman who passed out while crossing the freeway on foot in the dark. She passed out on the lanes and was hit multiple times by people who thought she was a garbage bag.

Holy crap. The first story. I'm from that area and drove past it no too long after it happened. So sad.

[@charmainemary1]

The first story kinda reminds me of something that happened at my previous job several months ago. It's different but someone died in our parking lot. There is a Hookah bar across the parking lot. I don't know details still couldn't find much online but I'm guessing a fight happened outside the bar and a young man was shot and lost his life. Both the hookah bar and our store remained opened and just business as usual. Several of us hoped they would close one if not both places to let the employees have a day. Cops were outside when I showed up in the afternoon. I was told our store couldn't open for a while because it was a crime scene and they had to take the body and clean the area. It was pretty crazy!

[@Non-religiou]

Did they caught the suspect

[@charmainemary1]

@Non-religiou From the information I could find it said there was a short chase which landed right near where I live and that the suspect was in custody I believe. I don't know anything else if the person was charged or anything.

Some what? Playing what? Lol

[@kathryncumberland]

​@@Taakabron211I haven't made it to that story yet (only just started Story 3), but wain is Irish slang for a youngster and Belfast is a song about the city during the height of The Troubles. So I believe she's basically saying, "Imagine calling the police cuz some kids are listening to music."

#9: Fake...we don't say windscreen in the US

[@Storm_Bringer]

One thing I picked up on in the East Texas clown story, I've never heard an American say wind screen, we as far as I've always heard say windshield, and I'm in North Louisiana right next door. I know that's the British term for it so I'm wondering if they just slipped up a little. I'm sure not every story on here is true, and this one might just true and he calls it a wind screen. Being from the South I just found it odd

[@brittnaylynn2678]

I’m from East Texas, and I cannot even think of one time I heard somebody native to the area say windscreen.

[@wildling_wolf]

@@brittnaylynn2678 I lived in DFW 20 years, no one says windscreen. Nor ‘backwoodsmen man’ either. A Texan would have called him a drunk redneck. Or wondered if he was on meth.

So many people saying "we booked it out of there" when it's "bucked". It means to jump/kick. The verb "book" has nothing to do with running fast.

[@g1rl_veteran]

It's a term that became popular in the early 80s. Many words are turned into verbs and used in ways that make no sense.

No. Booked it out= left in a hurry Booked out, checked out, left. Bucked it out is literally not a thing anyone says
