OMG! I've been calling him Jughead for as long as I can remember. 😆 But really, what difference does it make who takes over? Takes over what? Well, yes, I suppose he could raise your taxes to 90%. Maybe he and his horse-faced paramour need a new castle somewhere to get away from all their onerous duties...?

OH, BTW, Jughead is refusing to pay for round-the-clock security for his whipped progeny and his loving wife. Harry expressed utter shock when he found himself without this kind of protection. He was "born into this position" and just took it for granted that everything was paid for by someone else. Harry, dear, you are in for many other shocks when you experience just a teeniest, tiniest bit of what Real Life is like, for example, if you ever have to pay a bill by yourself. Yeah, fat chance of that.

Yeah, like he's prepared for that. A "Normal life" is fine when you haven't the slightest clue what real life is and others are paying the tab for you to live in mansions. When reading about these "Royals" over the years, I'd have fleeting thoughts about what any of them would do if they found themselves transported to some crappy dwelling and be forced to go pound the pavement and find a job to put food on the table. I'm convinced they'd just keel over and die on the spot. But it seems the Ginger Cuck is  going to pimp himself out for some sort of fawning Netflix dreck. He reminds me of the Kartrashians - being famous for absolutely no reason other than merely existing.

I left my house! Went to Charleston for the weekend. Safely distanced. Ate outside. It was decent. Went to the hotel bar and noticed right away “social differences”. There were 5 people at the bar and they were talking as if they were still in a crowded club/bar. It was like they were shouting. Perhaps being locked away for a year either made us notice more or made them talk louder? So we get up after they leave. Because it’s my friends birthday and we’re obnoxious we joked that we’d like to order a “sex on the beach” and a”screaming orgasm”. Oh the poor bartender...he says “I’ll have to look that one up” so I pounced on him. “What? A man admits he doesn’t know what a screaming orgasm is? I feel bad for your girlfriend.” He laughed. He returns with his phone where he’s told his girlfriend what I said. Her reply, “I’m glad they’re giving you shit”. I told him I approve of his girlfriend. So then my friend asks a dude at the bar “did your palm hurt?” What she meant was “did the tattoo on the back of your hand hurt?” But she had brain damage because she fell at the gas station on our way to Charleston (not really but she split her lip and was rattled so I kept teasing her about Brain damage) so everyone immediately thought she was making a joke about masterbation. The dude looked at his hand and says “I spend a lot of time alone, how does SHE know? I just shaved my palms” we all laugh.  She has no idea that the words she said didn’t connect with his tattoos. So that was the most entertainment we had all weekend.

In fact, I don't think you could be more wrong in your assessment. 

That’s fair enough, but I don’t think you could be any more wrong. There are far too many people today, of all ages, who think that appearing on any of these talent(less), lifestyle, human zoo shows, is akin to stepping on the rocket-ship to fame and fortune, I don’t want to spend years achieving anything the hard way, going out and working for a living? Not me. The sad thing is that these shows are a rocket-ship to fame and fortune, watched exactly by the people I’m talking about.

As for demeaning people, or taking the piss as I prefer to call it, maybe my comment was a bit ‘generalised’, I have no problem with my taxes being used to help people in genuine need, when I was younger and lost my job I received some financial help from the state, it was greatly appreciated and helped a lot, I did however get a job at the earliest opportunity. The people I’m referring to are those that come to the realisation that whether they look for work or not, they will get a cheque every two weeks, if the rent is also getting paid plus free prescriptions etc, if they got a job they may work 40hrs for only a few extra pounds take home a week, so they don’t bother.

Having no respect for oneself or anybody else by choosing not to work has nothing to do with genetics, it does have a great deal to do with upbringing, although becoming an adult should remove even that as an excuse.

This obsession with sitting on your sofa watching the lives of fictional characters, rather than getting out and living your real life is beyond crazy. They are or were until this swamping of celebrity / insta-fame shows, the most popular shows on TV here, madness.

I so agree. I grew up around people like that, who saw and see forced charity as their right and their career. If they spent as much time trying to be productive as they did figuring out every single angle on how to work the system, my hard-earned paycheque wouldn't have been so badly ransacked. 

Not only free prescriptions, but around here they used to be able to get anything in a pharmacy for free! So they would go in and get all kinds of toiletries and sell them. Our government finally woke up and realized that maybe makeup and suntan lotion weren't really necessities.

When I saw they (and my sister and her husband were two of them - two able-bodied people on welfare) had things I didn't have, like new electronics, etc., - and of course, the money for lots and lots of beer -  and I didn't even have a TV, I really asked myself why was I hauling ass out of bed early in the morning and freezing at the bus stop in a blizzard while they sat around drinking, partying with their friends who were also living on my dime, and staring at the tube all day?

I have zero objections to helping anyone who, through no fault of their own, are in genuine need due to some catastrophic event in their lives. It can happen to any of us with no warning. It's the career parasites who feel entitled to get a lifetime free ride that make me furious.

My sister is one of those people. Has never held down a job very long and she is both crazy (actual medicated not just me being mean) and just plain lazy. She COULD work she chooses not to. and she a weird obsession with Sharon Osborne where she believes Sharon listens to her and will give her things. As in, she thought she was going to turn in my sisters old car (2009 Ford Edge) as "evidence" of all the things the government was guilty of...Sharon Osborne was going to get her a new one. Because Sharon once visited the homeless shelter she lived at in dallas. Sharon didn't visit there when she was there, she's never been in a room with Sharon Osborne, however, because Sharon "endorsed" this charity that meant that Sharon was heavily tied to it and so she would write to "the Talk" to sharon specifically and ask for things. She also asked Ryan and Kelly and quite frankly anyone who she thought might give her stuff. She thought Sharon was going to put her on tv because "I'm mentally ill and my voice needs to be heard, I'm important to getting the word out and helping people". yeah, no. I always thought she was crazy like a fox, this was her scam. Because I know what she's capable of. My friend Marcy's brother is 6000% more "mentally ill" than my sister. My sister can do things...she would kind of need to be supervised kind of like a person with Down's Syndrome. There is a place here that employs Down's Syndrome people and other challenges and they make pins like campaign pins, has a photo or a slogan on them. If you were having a family reunion/class reunion and you wanted a cheap pin maybe with their old high school photo or name. along those lines. My sister can do busy work, she can type she could possibly work in a library aside from the part where she never shuts up. but you have to observe her, if you walk away she'll go sit somewhere and futz with her phone. Marcy's brother would be one of those people who twitches and is homeless, hears voices 24/7 is very far, far gone. Medication only calms him it can't clear his mind. My sister can but won't. She absolutely believes the world owes her something. And we weren't raised like that. We were raised to drag yourself into work even if you had to chew your leg off from a bear trap

Yes. If you complain about "parasites" so many will get up in arms and lecture you how not everyone getting assistance is a scammer or parasite. I know that. I am never referring to every single person, just the scammers.

My former SIL was bipolar and finally at the young age of 38 could not function well enough to keep her job after working all her life. Believe me, she would have much preferred to work than get disablity payments. She was nothing like those who collect gov. disability because their backs hurt, precluding them from doing any job of any kind, except they can do landscaping under the table for cash ("I only lift the light rocks!") or they have PTSD because they tripped on a pothole and fell or they're traumatized because someone said something mean to them.

I'm reading that many restaurants and such are having a hard time filling positions because people that were laid off are collecting far more in unemployment than they would make actually working.  Doesn't give me much faith in my fellow man, but at least I know they won't be collecting that money forever, like some do.

Depending upon (a) the laws of the country in which the scammers are based and (b) what sort of software they’re utilizing in their schemes and how they’re using it, some serious table-turning may often be in the realm of possibility.  Flipping their remote-access software such that you take control of their computer instead of the other way around, for example....

What sucks is that he gets paid by the jobs he does, so if he's on jury duty, he gets nothing except the $9 check they give you for serving.  They could at least give you 8 hours of minimum wage.  No wonder so many people don't like it.

When I was in high school, for one class we went to the courthouse to watch court proceedings.  The first one I don't remember anything about.  The second one involved a grandfather who had gotten in bed with his very, very, very, young granddaughter while she was asleep and was attempting to orally gratify her (sexually assault/molest/rape).   Hearing what went on there with that grandfather's testimony while he was on the stand still totally haunts me to this day, as it should.  He had admitted to what he had done.  We left before the proceedings had completed.

I concur! although we went to the MORGUE and I touched a dead brain. or they wanted me to. They showed us pics of teenagers who died huffing paint.

I have served jury duty and it both solidified my belief in the system and completely tanked it. On one hand the effort they went to, to ensure someones rights...and the complete and utter ineptitude of the entire thing. Dude was accused of destroying property when he left a boarding house. $700 constituted a felony at the time. He supposedly sprayed chemicals around the bathroom and left the water running that overflowed and caused water damage as well as destroying a bed. So we were there for 3 days. The defense attorney was "foreign" so we couldn't understand him half the time, I'm sure he was court appointed. Everyone who got on the stand was lying, no one's story added up. The defendent kept stating he had "millions" of dollars worth of clothes. MILLIONS he repeated. I was very worried that a black defendent on a mostly white jury was going to haunt me forever as an injustice. First day we did a mini vote and 3 black people voted not guilty and all white jurors (including me) would have voted guilty. by day 3...they finally showed us pictures of this "damage" JFC there was hair gel on a tub, the "destroyed" bed was a headboard that came apart anyway and could be reassembled. and the water damage, we double checked, when was the photo taken? IMMEDIATELY after the defendent left the premises. If that is the case there was no time for the water to have dried and there would be no stain on the ceiling below. There was water damage and if they'd said 2 weeks I could have concluded he did it. Nope, that was old water damage. boom, innocent. 2 seconds.

I have multiple times.  Even went on a road trip once.  All of the jury members hopped on a bus and traveled to a bar where the incident took place.

In fact, every time I had ended up as a juror, ever case involved violence at a bar.  And I mean every time.

Last time I got tabbed for jury duty was sometime back in the mid-2000s; got called for two jury picks, got selected on the second; a civil case involving a traffic accident, nothing gory - dang it.

Actually, the first day of the jury summons call was kinda hilarious.  The summons stated I - everybody summoned, actually - had to show up at the county courthouse on a specific date/time to report to the circuit court judge.  The judge called roll on everybody who had been summoned - in alphabetical order, by last name - and issued bench warrants for those who didn’t show up.

Here’s where the funny part kicks in, because both my father and I had received summons for the same jury pool - and I don’t know if I’ve ever mentioned it before, but we share the same name; for purposes of illustration we’ll say he’s John Wayne Gacy Sr., and I’m John Wayne Gacy Jr.  So as the judge is going down his roster:

Judge: Dennis.

Dennis: Here.

Judge: Franklin.

Franklin: Here.

Judge: Gacy.

My father and I (in unison): Here.

Judge (quick glance at his papers): John Gacy.

My father and I (again, in unison): Here.

Judge (slightly longer look at his papers): John WAYNE Gacy!

My father and I (third time’s the charm): Here!

Judge: Now just WAIT A DAMN MINUTE...!!!

My father and I both stand up.  
Me: This is my father, sir; he’s John Wayne Gacy Senior and I’m Junior, and we both got summonses for the same time.

Judge: 30-plus years on the bench, and that’s a first.

And the icing on the cake?  My next door neighbor was in the same summons pool, just a few names further down the list - and when the judge got to her name, she was still so choked up from stifling laughter she could barely answer him without cackling.

 

Just goes to show NOTHING - not even something as staid as jury duty - ever goes just plain normal for me.  😆
