It’s a rural town, so maybe a lot of the kids live in the country and are on wells instead of the town’s water tower?

There are many states where trucks only need one plate, and they put it in the front.
Is this more shit posting or are you serious?
The article says that the man is prohibited from owning firearms, so he probably has a felony or something. I’m not sure about California, but you wouldn’t need any kind of special license to own all of those guns and ammo in a lot of states.
Blasphemy! How can you look at that perfect hairy specimen and not think that is a good shape?
I’m not 100% sure, but I found this old thread that suggests that if it shows closed then the car has already had the issue fixed. Maybe a previous owner took care of it?

My spouse and I did something very similar. It sucks, but the line has to be drawn somewhere. Fortunately, we only had one friend that got offended enough to defriend us and, well frankly, we decided that maybe we were better off without that particular friend in our lives.
Congratulations, by the way!
“I got kids to feed!”
I know that it didn’t actually flee and just drove off because it was following it’s programming, but damn, the mental image of this robot hitting a car and then going, “Oh, shit! I’m outta here,” is hilarious to me.
…I may be a little high.
To be fair, I suspect the average adult in real life probably only remembers, and uses, 5th grade math.

Okay, pretty sure I’ve read the entire article now, but let’s keep scrolling to see how far this bullshit goes.

And then the following pattern SIX times:

FINALLY a whole bunch of links to other articles, some of which are promoted by Taboola, whatever the fuck that is.
And the entire time there was a red popup for “breaking news” taking up 1/5 of the screen.
For those keeping track at home, the article was a total of fourteen sentences, one photo of the school, and two stock photos. And no photo of a bathroom without mirrors.
At least you still get a cookie!
It’s a tough job, but somebody’s gotta do it.
You know, I would like to believe that these people are going to learn their lesson while in jail, but for some reason I doubt it. I don’t know, maybe it’s the fact that after everything trumpty dumpty has said and done, including saying he’s going to be a dictator, and half the country still wants to hand him the country on a silver platter (like everything else in his life)? I don’t understand it.
Cheaper than a kid!
For those that are confused by the name change, Jack is an old nickname for John. It was most popular in the 17th century and has been on the decline since, so I don’t think many people today use it that way anymore. Or any people younger than 70, anyway.
Of a similar origin, there’s Jim for James, Dick for Richard (giggity), Harry for Henry, and Sally for Sarah, among others. I think some of these are more popular than others, but it seems to me that they are mostly out of use in general, though some of the nicknames live on as normal names.
Typical lower decks job.
It’s a fantastic idea on paper; you, and another family, want to go on vacation but want to be more comfortable than in a hotel while renting your homes out while you’re gone so someone one else gets the same comfort and you get to make a little of money to help pay for the vacation. And everyone saves a little on their vacation accomodations to boot. Everyone wins! And then capitalism and greed happened and people turned the rentals into a business and ruined it.
Why not both!
