Someone parked halfway blocking my driveway and the car(van) has been there for a week and hasn't moved. What's the etiquette here. I can get out of the driveway ok still, but it's really fucking annoying me. Because it's rude as fucking hell to do that and they were too lazy to pick another spot.

Should I ignore it?
Call the cops and get it towed if they'd even tow it and risk another neighbor war?
Push it forward a few feet if I even can?

Who doesn't use their car for a week? I swear everyone on this block is a fucking lazy ass bum.

Try being the eldest, by the time the middle ones in my family appeared they'd already taken their beatings out on me.

Wasn't nice, first kids are the experiment. Middle-late ones ... well they got off lightly. My parents probably realised no amount of beating would stop me being a little bastard.

They were right.

I grew taller and a bigger bastard that was too dangerous to hit.

Can confirm it's true, you get ignored when the other babies are born, expected to "Grow up" faster, get punished harder for "Being old enough to know better" (Only two years difference). Younger siblings get better presents, clothes or whatever than you had because your parents are now earning more money so they get spoiled.

The worst kid to be when you've grown up is the youngest becuse it's the last baby your mother will have and she doesn't don't want to let go and keeps spoiling so he turns into a massive man child.

On the plus side though, being ignored gives you more freedom as they are glad you are out the house, and you'll likely have your own bedroom as your the oldest.

Dude, I haven't even written my blog yet. You just did.

What's your rates on ghostwriting?

Have to put boobs and drugs in, you know, for the Hollywood adaption.

Millions man! All spent on ...

Had a laugh yesterday when that guy with the Garfield avatar in the Sony sexism topic and he's being all male feminist said he used to get beaten by his parents and grandmother with a cane in the third world country he grew up in and that would never happen in the west because your parents would get arrested and put in jail! :messenger_tears_of_joy:

I remember teaching my younger brothers to sell one of my dads beatings like a football player that got fouled. If you tough it out in silence, not wanting to look like a pussy of defiant and say "Didn't hurt" he'd keep beating us until he thought he'd hurt us. So the lightest of slaps you'd be OWWWWW AHHH that hurt.. and he'd stop.

Except my little brother one time tried that on a slap my dad whiffed and missed him with. He got more slaps for lying about it or something.

I’ve had a moment this afternoon to think about what kind of person I am, and I’ve come to realise that I’m extremely self-destructive. I’ll be faced with the prospect of being happy with something, get scared, so destroy it before I have a chance of being happy. I’ve done it with all my past relationships and even some jobs. It’s a cycle I can’t get out of.

Recognizing the circle is the first step. Stay on the path and you'll figure out how to get out of it.

Everyone in my personal (and work) life was jumping for joy when I told them I wasn't seeing her anymore. Gonna have to keep this on the down low for a while. My coping mechanism: post it publicly on the internet for anyone to see.

Unless you've stated your name at some point it's all good buddy. We'll keep your secret. How was the sex?

One of the main things is that I’m a Trump supporter / conservative and she has gone pretty far left. She loves AOC, reads woke books, etc. We don’t really talk about that because it always turns into a fight.

Are you me? My gf and I are very similar. We simply don't talk about politics because it can lead to pretty hellish fights. The sex is also fantastic so I put up with her socialist ass.

I just noticed a giant plot hole in the third Harry Potter book/film. Towards the end, when Harry and Hermoine go back in time to save Buckbeak and Sirius, a scene plays out in which Hermoine throws a pumpkin seed at the back of Past Harry’s head in order to draw his attention to Dumbledore and Fudge approaching Hagrid’s hut. When she does this, Future/Present exclaims that he too felt the seed hit him. From this, we can assume that Future Harry feels exactly what Past Harry feels.

If we are applying this level of rationale, then the scene that follows, in which Future Harry casts a Patronus charm to save the lives of Past Harry and Sirius from the Dementors. But, and this is where the plot hole lies, as the Dementors are sucking out Past Harry’s soul and causing his body a great deal of pain and torment, shouldn’t Future Harry also be affected? He should be curled up on the floor too, unable to cast the Patronus. By rights, Past Harry (and, by extension, Future Harry) and Sirius should both be dead.

Lazy writing, JK. I’m disappointed.
