Working While Black in america.

Khufu says...

Some old white lady hiding behind her curtains probably called 911 saying there was a black kid stealing mail from everyone's mailboxes... She was expecting her social security check, and it never came and she's SURE it was this boy.

ALWAYS Set Your Parking Brake

newtboy says...

That turned out way better than when I did that with a U-Haul truck in town. My truck rolled back about 1/2 block before turning into a neighbors yard and taking out their fence, mailbox, and front landscape. I was incredibly lucky it didn't hit 20 cars on the way there. These days I don't even have a parking brake in my car, so if I have to leave it unattended, I have to turn it off and leave it in gear.

Insurance scam doesn't go as planned

Lawdeedaw says...

I bicycle around, and the one thing I note about it is that I put myself in a situation to get run over every day. See, I live in Florida, so that goes without saying. Here, people don't give the right away to shit. Red light on turn, when I have the crosswalk sigh? Well fuck me.

I find this whole thing funny because I pay attention to people walking so freaking close to my car. I mean the guy could have carjacked her because of this inattention. The guy was pretty brass about it since he made sure to flag someone before falling. Lastly, if you're the van, you don't poke your fucking van out in the middle of the street without a view of both ways. It DOES NOT MATTER if traffic is stopped one way, you don't do it. By her constant need to turn this way and that, she could not obviously, or safely, see both ways.

Ironically I thought he fell in front of the Van, but then noticed he fell to the side of it. Bad day that it turned I myself would have noticed the turn signal... But as I said, I would have also noticed someone blatantly waving and approaching my vehicle...

Another point; some would say that identity theft is the fault of most victims. You leave something if your trash with information, don't regularly clear out your mailbox, pay with a debit card, etc...not sure if you have ever done those things but if you have you definitely opened yourself up for the fraud.

As Clint Eastwood said as William Munny:

Deserve's got nothing to do with it.

I feel like I've tried to make this rather fine point a lot over the years on the Sift: I'm not saying he *should* or *deserves to* be run over by a car for trying to pull a con.

What I'm saying is he put himself into a situation where he could get run over by a car and did so of his own volition with blatant malicious intent. The fact that his pretending to get run over by a car actually resulted in him getting run over by a car yields zero sympathy with me.

Plus, I'm not sure what country you're in or if you're automotively insured, but if you are at fault of hitting someone with your car, you'll be screwed with insurance and paying a significantly higher rater for several years to come. It's not like a bank where your money is insured by the federal government and a robbery of the vault wouldn't affect you; the victim of an insurance scam is directly, immediately, and significantly fucked.

(Someone used my name when they were apparently at fault in an accident before I'd ever gotten my first insurance policy, and when I did first try to get insured, my premium was something like triple what it would've cost me otherwise.)

Again, not saying that ^that means he deserves to be crushed by a car, but he did it to himself. (Likewise, if he was playing Russian roulette and shot himself in the head, I wouldn't feel bad for him.)

You reap what you sow.

Obama's secret plan for nuclear war with Russia

chingalera says...

Ok, I would point-out that everything this puppeteer does so well is based on his stringing-of one cliched phrase to another while using not-so-subtle words to trigger responses. Notice how his carefully-crafted script should he be distracted from it (in this case by a heckler who is not only about to be the brunt of a joke, but probably arrested, detained, bullied, released and followed for weeks and he'll most likely get an IRS audit in his mailbox soon) goes to shit, and he can't improvise a sentence fragment or turn of phrase.

Making the guy the brunt of a joke, then hustling him out of the casino for a work-over. Capone would be proud.

Simple, emotionally-loaded pre-scripted words in every speech, every prepared statement.
He touches his face too much, pretty sure that's a liar's tell, very irritating and one of the most flagrantly insulting heads of state in the history of the office of President.

People, are becoming so overtly programmed to respond to such obvious bullshit....Kill your fucking TV's please people, before Complete Cognitive Warpage occurs...

USPS carrier drives onto customer's lawn to deliver package

albrite30 says...

That driver was immediately fired. The USPS has no, I repeat NO patience for this kind of shit. My stepfather worked for the post office in Rhode Island was fired immediately when he accidentally knocked over someone's mailbox when backing up. He didn't know he had even hit anything (scary I know) until he got back to the station and they canned him on the spot. On the whole, the USPS is such a dependable service with fewer bad eggs than the other delivery companies. This woman should be put up in stocks in the town square.

Your vagina is US Govt property & will be searched randomly.

JustSaying says...

Yeah, I wanna see the part where she hides the rocks she threw into the mailbox in her vagina.
Seriously, they checked out her crotch. With gloves.
Don't you think that's kinda uncalled for? I do. I fucking do.

Esoog said:

So does everyone just take this shit at face value? yeah, I'd like to see the post office video too. To see what she actually did in there. I'd also like to see the police footage BEFORE they take her down. Wonder why that part wasnt in this video?

Automator - It's Over Now (Kool Keith & Dan the Automator)

MrFisk says...

[Talking voice]
Yeah man, just left town man
I'm here, here
Had to get outta town baby
Where you stayin' now?
You can pick me up at the round busstation
Or I can take a plane
There's your cab? I'll be right over
It's gonna be a few sec, and I'll tell you what went down

[Kool Keith]
I stayed in New York, depressed, walkin' mad through the block
Watching brothers go down, my project friends smoking rock
My group divided and everthing was undecided
I was drinking, thinking: "Damn, man, my boat is sinking"
Everybody's wack and new groups comin' back
They on Arsenio, booty's on video
Watch this clown rhyme that's paid for on primetime
Everybody's mean, they're hard, they're killing mothers
Shootin' bang bang, fakin man killing brothers
I had to turn off the radio from all the Walt Disney
Mickey Mouse and friends all talking pop and lippy
Girls excited for what? And over-infatuated
People got their brain washed and folks got manipulated
They start beleiving Donald Duck made the earth
The industry was cursed since the Dinosaur's birth
(The industry was cursed since the Dinosaur's birth)

[Chorus]
It's over now
No problems in this world
It's over now
I'm home chillin' with my girl
It's over now
My mind was in a twirl
It's over now
I'm home chillin' with my girl
It's over now
No problems in this world
It's over now
I'm home chillin' with my girl
It's over now
My mind was caught up in a twirl
It's over now
I'm home chillin' with my girl

[Kool Keith]
Flying nighttime, eating peanuts on the plane
With no moneycontrol, my stress builds on my brain
My ticket's oneway
I'm out to southern Caliway
I left behind some people that wasn't even equal
I thought back with chicks and freaks in 86'
When Marley was in in control +the funky magic mix+
I had the limousine on hold with the real chauffeur
Ripped the ???? up with Ultra and I felt like Oprah
Girls in flocks and fans in lines from blocks
I didn't even hear a peep of you rappin' mister
I was your idol and probably on your older sister
Now you bad you signed stupid with a recorddeal
Your image is butt you perpertrating Shootin' Steel
Holdin' guns on albumcovers just to make funds
You the man quick fast payed out the ?anoass?
You can see I'm back and clear on stereo
with my own style, my intimite material

[Talking voice]
Ye, your style changed every year
Think about what you did
Used to dance, used to wear suits
Then you came back to wearing hip-hop clothes
Then you went back to wearing suits

[Chorus]
It's over now
No problems in this world
It's over now
I'm home chillin' with my girl
It's over now
My mind was caught up in a twirl
It's over now
I'm home chillin' with my girl

[Kool Keith]
No accountant, my lawyer keepin' checks on the low
Money, expenses for trips I didn't know
Agencies finding shows I could get myself
Writing rhymes at night in the house by myself
I open mailboxes, all I see was more bills
Gettin' cold chicken, walkin' down Bronx hills
Askin' moms for 50 cent, just to pay my rent
I had no will to ill, my mind was out to kill
I called up Kurt, got a big deal signed with Capitol
Money's flowin' now wild suckas out blowin' up
They my pupic care, and pupils still growin' up
Sucking mean while the g'ism as it hits the rhythm
They want that new style, no money it's called freestyle
Taping off the radio, smokin' from my crack vial
They on my tip now, as always as usual
You forgot me, but I didn't forget you

[Chorus]
2x It's over now
No problems in this world
It's over now
I'm home chillin' with my girl
It's over now
My mind was caught up in a twirl
It's over now
I'm home chillin' with my girl

Yeah...

What Happened to the Mailbox? Security Camera Catches it All

braschlosan says...

>> ^speechless:

This was just sad. I feel cruel somehow in having watched it.


Why? Kids learn many valuable lessons by getting hurt. I couldn't list a quarter of them. For example - knowing not to go faster than you can handle, when your parents are no longer around crying won't help, keep your wits even when you're hurt etc.

If he finds this video he also learns the lesson that even if you think no one is watching, someone probably is.

That kid was just hit, not by a mailbox, but by the sudden realization that no one is there for you in life. Good on 'im for getting up relatively quickly (9sec?) and walking home under his own power. Valuable lesson learned that day.
