once you purposely hide something are you giving up ownership of it legally?
we've had some issues around the complex lately where people will hide things around the property and then someone else will happen upon it and use it for themselves and then the original hider will find out and demand repayment for what was taken, for example a guy upstairs who didnt want his wife finding illicit substances in their apparment hid them in someone's hamper in the laundry room and then that person consumed them the day after when she found them while trying to folld her clothes, i also hid a silverwear set in an unused mail-drop becuase its what i got for my wife and didnt want her to see it ahead of time so once i find out who's using it i'll want it back or the proper retail value as long as my claim is valid which is what i wanted to check with you guys here thanks.
5 AnswersLaw & Ethics6 years agois bathroom violence higher than normal violence because we're not allowed to put cameras in there?
you see it on movies and shows all of the time and it's happened in my gym a few times also where people wait and then corner someone in the bathroom and beat them up there because they know there's no escape and the facility isn't allowed to put cameras around taht room so unless there's a witness they'll get away with it esepcially in movies since one guy at my gym actually ended up admitting to it becuase he got a few injuries during the fight that were obvious. since i use the bathroom out in public a few times each day i'm worried about what type of message the younger kids are getting from this and everyttime one comes in wearing those hooded sweatshirts and rapping i honestly get worried now which didn't happen before when the bathroom's were just as protected as anyywhere else, is this a trend now or do mostt people think it's okay for isssues to be settled behind the scenes like that? also what can be done to add less invasive security inside of bathrooms themselves so a security guard can tell what's happeneing in there and if someone needs help.
2 AnswersLaw & Ethics6 years agohow do cats make sure that they never have water go down the wrong pipe?
one of the main differences between my wife's cat and me is that all the time I end up having huge coughing fits when we're watching tv because I'll drink something and have the liquid swallowed wrong and it feels like it slices part of my throat off and i choke up all over the place and then my wife says i'm gross even though im not doing it on purpose and ive seen otehr ppl do it occassionally too, my wife's cat has nevr coughed like this before in its life and everytime it drinks water she says itts graceful and very coordinated and all of that, did cats evolve so that they dont have a extra pipe like humans do so they physically cant swallow it wrong or do they just pay more attention to how they're drinking things in general?
1 AnswerCats6 years agois it considered drunk driving if the person in passanger seat is sober and stearing the wheel?
my wife and her friend who is kind of pregnant and that friend's sister went out for a rally that went way into the night and they had too much to drink because they were trying to warm up and on the way back the sister who was very drunk was driving becuase they didn't want a pregnant person to sit in that seat but they still let the pregnant person lean over and control where the car was moving while the drunk sister used the acccelerator and they ended up getting pulled over and the police arrested the sister was that legal ffor him to do or do they have a good case that the driver was actually the passsneger do you think?

2 AnswersElections6 years agoare there any rap crews that split their time between community service and dropping bars?
we used to have a rap crew with my best friend jason and his cousin and we performed a few local shows and even signed some girls chest when we were at our peak but that fell off a while ago because I got disillusioned with the idea of fame and how it became more about showmanship than true art, but i figured that if maybe there was crews that showed the community love in two different ways (rap and building up the community through good deeds) i could get on-board with that and reallly flourish in that environment plus my wife has been telling me that i hate our twon and i want to show her that's not true.
1 AnswerRap and Hip-Hop6 years agohow can you burn off the letters on each key of a keyboard that tells which letter they are?
we found out that one of my wife's best friends ex-husbands has been sending nasty email messages to her on another browser and instead of trying to beat him up because he's bigger than us we were going to use the spare key my wife's friend still has for the guy's appartment and go inside when he's not there and erase the letters on all of the keys so it will be much harder for him to write any other offensive things to send to her inbox, the problem is though that we don't know what type of thing we can pour on the keyboard so that those letter-marknigs all fade away and please can use some helpful advice on what should wrk for doing it right?

2 AnswersSwimming & Diving6 years agocould bailing someone out of lockup be considered a holliday gift or do I still need to get her something else?
my wife had a sitaution two nights ago where she was drinking gross wine with her friends and she made some offensive comment like can happen when she's been drinking and the friend asked her to leave but she refused and they ended up calling the police a few hours later and then she refused to leave for them also and she resisted when they forcibly tried to make her leave so she ended up getting booked in and then when i got told by that friend's husband i collected the money my cousin owed me and went to the county jail to bailed her out really quickly so she wouldnt have to spend much time in there. she ended up saying thanks when she woke up the next day so i know she does appreciate it even though she told me im a scumbag on the walk back to our appartment but she still had all that wine messing her up, that was the rest of the money i was owed though so i'm pretty out of stuff to buy her anything with for christmas so i was thinking about telling her that day that when i bailled her out that was her gift do other woman think that be a success or would you expect something elsse like a more traditional gift also?
3 AnswersMarriage & Divorce6 years agois it okay to paint your car tires different colours?
based on some feedback ive gotten about other local law things id assume it would be since it doesn’t seem that the government can technically restrict much I do although in theory there are some things you need permits for or watever but what seems strange about this is that if it was okay to do why wouldnt more people do it? we wanted to apint the tires of my wifes car red-white-red-white in honour of something that has meaning to us but before we invest the money in the paint and brushes i wanted to check here if it would be fine or if you guys have information about why not if thats the case? its not drastically urgent that we know the answer today but id really apprecaite if you could because we want to get the materials why prices are still lower if we can do this thing thanks.

someone who has betrayed me before is coming to dinner in a few weeks and even though we've tehcniocally reconciled and I said I'm okay with whats in the past and we'll move forward im still angry inside so I've been doing small things to inconvenience them and this is the perfect opportunity to do it again becuase they're favourite food is carrots so we promised they would be there but what we didn't promise is that tehy'd be cooked right and i want to make sure they're severly overdone. i was planning to boil them for too long and then take them from there and put them straight into the microwave for too long also so that when i put them on this guy's plate they look like normal carrots on the outside but taste more like charcol when he tries to eat it, the thing i dont know is how long i'd need to do those cooking processes for does anyone please have any idea as to a appropriate amount of time?

there isnt a big storm coming yet but I know its only a matter of time and lots of insurance companies and stuff say to come up with plans in case of a disaster to keep everyone safe and I was thinking that since there's a lake in our town would it wrk if we all bought scubaing equiptment with that oxygen tank and then dressed warm and went underwater for like 6 hours and sat on the bottom while the storm happened and then come back up again after to replenish the tanks and then go back down again if the storm isnt over yet? i'm not sure what happpens on the bottom of the water during a storm exactly but it seems like it should be safer then up above of the water becuase there wouldn't be any things moving around that could hit you?

2 AnswersRunning6 years agoare hospitals overrated and will we even need many of them once everyone has internet access globally?
whenevr I have a issue now I'll check with my wife's computer what the symptoms are and how to treat it and then if I need medicine there's always people around who would be able to get it for me even if it's perscription and if there's just like some exercises i need to do to rehab a injury or some spetcial tea leaves i neeed to eat i jsut do that and am better always without having to ask the hospital what they think, lots of my friends and their family have the same technique and it seems that if everyone had the internet then people could get rid of some hospitals and then only a few could remain for the serious diseases and like when my friend's brother got shot and needed surgery that you can't really perform at home?

1 AnswerGarden & Landscape6 years agowhat's it called when you have a urge to always wake ppl up who you see sleeping?
we're filling out these forms for insurance and I have to list any disorders and I cant leave it blank my wife said or else we might not qualify for what we're trying to get so the first thing that came to mind is how I always have this senstation where i have to wake people up when i see them asleep, one time i was in a whole bus full of people who were mostly sleeping and i had a massive panic attack wanting to wake them all up so i ended up screaming about how happy i was to be going to the city and they all woke up and then i got to calm down, it's also happened in the park when it's nice out i have to wake up people who are tanning and when my mother-in-law stayed over our apartment when her hosue got flooded i almost got divorcd becuase i had to keep walking out to the couch in the middle of the night and shaking it til she woke up and i'm not reallly sure why i just saw a documentary on sleep apneiar and now it freaks me out to watch people be asleep im not sure if they could be in pain or whatever can you please explain the term that tthis type of thing is called?
1 AnswerPsychology6 years agoIf a mob vandalized a rental car would the guy whos renting it be liable for some of the damages?
there's one guy we know who's extremely arrogant and he's coming to our city again soon and he always rents a car when he lands near the airport and then takes up the good spots on the street and never leaves because he goes around cheating on his wife and drinking and the car pretty much stays there until he drives back to the airport a week later to leave and he gets all of us angry becuase he pretends to be our friend but its obvious that he doesnt really care and he thinks he's better than us becuase he has more money and success and can get away with cheating on his wife when he feels like it. he parks near to the big sports stadium and this year we were going to put the rival teams flags and stickers all over the outside of his rental car so after people get drunk and come out of the staidium from watching a game they see it and become a mob, would he have to pay for anything where they do if it cuases damage or would he get out of it becuase he's covered by some clause that we're nott thinking of?
5 AnswersLaw & Ethics6 years agohow many marshmellows would you need to put in a pillowcase to make it like a real pillow?
we were thinking about proper new years resolutions for when it happens and my wife thought that maybe we could become vegans and recycle more like these 2 guys she saw on a tv show but she said if we do it then we need to be full-on and not like people who just do it for the fame or to make a point or whatever and part of that is we can't have any animal-prroducts at all like shoes even that have leather on them or milk cubes or regular pillows she said becuase they have feathers from malllards in them and something about upholstery. for the shoes we figured we can get around it by doing slippers and i never liked the milk cubes anyway but with the pillows the best alternatvie we could think of was filling the pillow with the jumbo marshmellows and as long as they're in a plastic bag and then wrapped in the pillow case it shouldnt matter how old they are or anytthing but we're not rich either and can't buy so many marshmellows so how many exactly do you think we sshould be planning on to do this resposnbile and not be even more broke than whats now.

one of my friends who I don’t like all that much voluneetered me as a reference for a place he wants to wrk at that deals with lots of pills and he'd be around them all day and I think the people there deserve to know that he's actively addicted to cigarettes and smokes at least 4 of them every day no matter how many times i tell him to stop, would this be alarming to them becuase they know that he would probably end up becoming addicted to eating their pills as well or will they not make that assumption based on his cigartte sickness alone?
