That's the opposite of not making me want to live on this planet anymore.

Bit of both. Museum quality house maybe. He lived there largely by himself and some house staff. It was kind of a B&B for a while. Then he would shut himself away and not let anyone in unless you bought paintings. Then you could stay as long as you want.

If by Mannequins you mean sex bots, then it gets creepy.

But if it makes them happy then I'm all for it.

UPDATE: We’re saved everyone: By Inside Edition, of all things. Apparently as sick of this story as the rest of us, IE set up a meeting between Vezmar and his date, so that she could give him the $17.31 back. In return, she asked for him to please god, “just leave this alone.” Vezmar carefully counted out all the money, and agreed to drop his lawsuit. We’d like to say that this will be the last we hear of this, but we would undoubtedly be wrong.

WTF those two have the same eyes..perhaps they are related and didn't know?

Maybe it's tenant occupied. That's a lot of stuff in the house.

Default The "I Don't Want To Live On This Planet Anymore" thread

A backpack was left on the hood of a car parked in a 7-11 parking lot in north end Winnipeg. A group of friends stole the bag, and when they were driving away they opened the bag, and discovered a bomb inside. It went off.
A few rumours going around that this was done on purpose since that area of town has a ton of theft.

That's a little extreme. Why not use the exploding dye packs like you see with those backpack pranks where they leave backpacks so thieves steal them only for them to blow up paint in their faces when they open them up? Gets the point across without seriously injuring someone.

Easier to make a bomb than an exploding dye pack?

A Calgary man died while trying to break into a clothing donation bin. He got stuck and his feet were sticking out upside down. Found by a passerby this morning at North Hill mall

Wow, weird. How does one die doing that? Was he completely stuck vertically upside down and the blood all went to his head and eventually that was just it? That would be the only way, right?

Not sure if I'm doing this right...

https://www.theatlantic.com/business...h-rate/534291/

Basically Japanese labour laws prevent most men from securing decent employment in a society with outdated patriarchal views on family hierarchy lead to shrinking birth rates and see many people in the country forced to eek out livings barely above the poverty line.

Really? People actually thought they'd throw Michael Phelps in a tank with a great white shark for a shark race on Shark Week? Who in their right mind would think he had a chance anyway.
