My sister and I popped into a pub for a couple of drinks, the staff and customers alike, were rude and took the Mick because we weren't local. When ended up leaving after the first drink, but not before we put enough money in the jukebox the play " Shout " by Lulu, on repeat, 25 times. Best fiver I've ever spent 😊

John Mulaney would be so proud of you! He tells a story in his stand up about doing the same thing with a jukebox, had it playing Tom Jones "What's New Pussycat?" WOOooo-OOOooo_OOOooh! Over and over. Just to really eff with people, he put one play of a different Tom Jones song, much to the relief of the other patrons, but after that it went right back to playing "Pussycat", and folks lost their minds! 😂 You and your sister are awesome, my kind of petty! (edit) Oh Lordy! I'd never heard Lulu's version of the great Isley Bros. tune so I had to give it a listen to fully appreciate the wrath y'all unleashed on that pub. Geez... last time I heard a sound like that was when a big june bug got fried in the bug zapper. The Horror! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Back in the 80s, a terrible novelty song called "Pac-Man Fever" was, for some reason, popular once. Having breakfast in a rural town in upstate New York (if you think rednecks are only in the south and midwest, you'd be surprised) our New Jersey accent received glares, and we were treated rather poorly by the staff and were looked down upon by those at other tables and the counter. This was one of those diners with a jukebox 'terminal' at every table, and every few feet of the counter. Just before leaving, I packed the jukebox with as much money as I had at the time (not much, I was 13, and sacrificing it was worth it for me) but it was enough to play the terrible song 20 times. The first instance was as we were at the desk at the door, paying the check. KZbin search the song. Or trust me that it sucks!

@solomongrundy-ri6bl I used to visit neighborhood pubs and bars in the 1980s, when I was young. In almost all of them, there was some type of cabinetry built around the jukebox to keep people from vandalizing it, so customers and staff couldn't get to the plug. Sometimes people would unplug it, then cut the plug off. The only thing they could do to turn it off was throw the breaker. Sometimes that was a hassle if there were other lights and electronics on the same breaker. One bar had to build something around the jukebox because some patron(s) was putting records in it that were VERY offensive, or they would mix them up so they didn't match what people wanted to play.

8:43 I can understand being annoyed by it, but if the worst thing your neighbour has ever done is not say Hello back to you, which can have dozens of reasons, than you're at least as bad by taking the one thing you know they have trouble with and make it so that they can never escape from it. The story gives little detail, but I know of a situation a little like this, and that person had autism. After having non-stop noise from their neighbour, even after telling her it was really bothering them, they became so stressed that they almost got a burnout from it.

This. I'm so fortunately as an autist to have the end unit. the guy next door occasionally plays guitar but is otherwise quiet. I had the option a few months back to potentially move to the unit directly next to the dog potty area, as I'm the only owner of a dog in the complex (my guide dog). I opted to not even though it was an end unit because the person in the apartment next to it is a screamer. I'll take the guitar dude any day... and my dog and I can just deal with the walk. I don't regret this one bit.

Management just tossed it out as a neighbour-noise thing though they did write a memo to all the residents (it's a big building). No one else "hears anything". Never met her. I would have to file a police report. That makes more fun for her to continue. It's annoying, scary, medically costly, and cruel.

The person who wanted to see the Mario Bros. movie but didn't want to go alone, so he hyped it to his kids so they would want to see it with them reminded me of when I did the same thing with my son @ 25 years ago. The movie was "George of the Jungle", loosely based on my favorite cartoon when I was a child. Mostly though, it was because it starred Brendan Fraser, one of those rare men who can be smoking hot and adorably goofy at the same time. The movie did not disappoint! I sure saw a lot of other "moms" in the audience, but I think some of them forgot to bring kids. When I talked about the movie with other moms later, we always talked about that scene where his long hair is flowing, he's wearing a loose-fitting white shirt open in the front, and he's working with a beautiful white horse (gentling a "wild" horse). Siiiigh! I still think Brendan is wonderful. I'm okay with "dad bod", he's still adorable and a genuinely good person according to people who've met and worked with him.

The even better part about that scene is all the other dudes watching the women present watching him on the horse and one of them turns to the other and says "What is it about chicks and horses, huh?"

Because, in a capitalist system, you are doing things right if you’re making enough money and keeping your health and happiness. Why is it only companies and corporations that are allowed to make unethical decisions for financial gain, but the actual living human beings have to dedicate themselves to hard work. Some people just aren’t motivated or fulfilled by working; to them, it’s only wasted energy to put in more effort. And that okay. I’d put money on a guess that almost all, if not all, of those examples are from America or a similarly capitalistic country. Work ethic doesn’t mean anything. There are minimum wage workers with incredible work ethic going hungry and people who never work a day in their life due to generational wealth. The system doesn’t value morals, it values money.

I’ve got one…so at my local gym/spa that I attend 3-4 times a week, there are signs all over, saying not to leave bags out on the benches and to use the lockers provided (free lockers). There are also signs in the gents changing rooms saying not to shave due to ppl leaving a mess, and anyone caught shaving would face immediate membership cancellation. Last week I walked in and couldn’t sit to change my shoes due to bags…ignored it and walked around the corner only to find one of the bag culprits, shaving…I took my time and when, as I suspected he left his bag unattended, I picked up his shit, put it in the dirty towel bin, covered it up and went to use the facilities…around half an hour later I watched from the jacuzzi, through the glass screens, him in reception in his Speedo’s, asking for help…it took them a while but they eventually found his kit. Apparently he was late for work…it worked as he’s not done it again since! To be fair, I could have easily just reported it to the staff and he would have been banned, so I think I was lenient.

Was a recently promoted SGT in the military. Had just returned from the initial invasion of Iraq. Common practice is for people to PCS, ETS, and get replacements over the next few months. Due to me having re-enlisted to stay at my current duty station, I was one of the few NCOs not going anywhere. During this period, units don’t conduct any training due to combat teams not being 100%. So work is fairly boring with a lot of sitting around. Got a chance to attend EMT-I at the local military hospital with 3 other individuals (all E4 and below). Course was supposed to be 8 weeks long which would take us all the way to the Christmas holiday. I work the deal with the command group where I can take accountability of us four and send it up every morning so we don’t have to attend first formation. We get to class and the instructor announces that due to a personal reason, this course will be condensed into six weeks, even though the paperwork and the digital system claims 8 weeks. The four of us finish the course and then agree to act like we’re still in the class for the last two weeks. None of us went to work until the day before everyone signed out on leave for the holidays. We were able to finagle two extra weeks of paid vacation and ended up taking the whole month of December off. No one ever found out.

"Train him to be a better kisser" I had to cringe at that. The conceit behind that statement, as if she was in posession of the truth of how to kiss. Hate to break it to you, sweetheart, but you are not training him to be better, you are just pushing him to do this particular thing exactly the way you like it, to accomodate you, without having to actually tell him. Ah, but this a two people matter. Did it occur to you that maybe he doesn't like the way YOU kiss him, that he thinks YOU are the bad kisser, that it's YOU who needs to change, because the way you do it is not appealing to him? "Oh no, I know how it shoud be done, so I need to teach him". No, you don't. You need to talk to him, tell him what you like and also listen to what he likes, and reach a common middle ground.
