ONLY twice? Her brother may be physically blind, but she's worse!

[Arcus]

My sister-in-laws little brother has that kind of blindness. For some reason he too decided that riding a motorcycle was a good idea and was giving rides up a canyon to my nieces. My brother and sister-in-law got in a huge fight over it because my brother refused to allow his kids to ride with a blind man on a motorcycle in place where there are steep drop offs and sharp corners. My sister-in-law said he was being unreasonable and her brother had only crashed twice that canyon.

This one is almost horrific.

It would have been horrific if not for the store staff standing their ground. In addition to the immediate sickness and death, it would have represented a major attack on the credibility of, and faith in, public aid to the poor.

I've heard of a case where a major shelter for tigers (ex-zoo etc) got handed a "contribution" of a few pallets of chickens... which turned out to have similarly been sitting in the hot sun for several hours. I don't recall if any of the tigers actually died, but they did get very sick indeed, and yes, criminal charges were in the offing.

No, they don't. The link is to a published patent application. That application never issued as a patent and was abandoned.

Probably a good thing....

And a commenter pointed out that IBM has a patent for it.

Karma gets delivered, in the end.

TL;DR - OP encounters crazy woman at coffee shop, who continues harrassing OP outside the shop, ends up antagonizing someone else and crazy woman gets banned from coffee shop; sometime later, OP witnesses crazy woman nearly hit a pedestrian in crosswalk, crazy woman complains about "unreasonable people" to OP, who agrees; crazy woman recognizes OP and then angrily speeds off, and gets pulled over by a cop
