BassResource.com Administrator Glenn Posted March 12, 2012 BassResource.com Administrator Posted March 12, 2012 A manager of K-Mart in my area was shot over the weekend by a would- be burglar who was demanding that he give them all the money in the store's safe. We're not here to tell you how to commit a crime, but who robs a K- MART?!? There's Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, Tiffany's, Barney's... again, not trying to encourage you to rob anywhere, but if you're gonna risk going to jail, aim higher than K- Mart. Just sayin'... if you're gionna go to jail for, say, grand theft auto and you have the choice between a Ferrari and an AMC Pacer, choose wisely. Similarly, yesterday afternoon a family feud involving some 20 family members ended with at least 2 of them with knife wounds. This went down at the Old County Buffet. Come on... we expect this type of thing at Chuck E. Cheese, but the OCB? Then there was a story last month of a Chicago man who jumped up from the front row of a movie theatre naked. Thing is, the movie in question was Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked. No one expected to see that, and that's the basis of today's question: WHERE IS THE LAST PLACE YOU EXPECTED TO SEE WHAT IT IS YOU SAW? Quote
preach4bass Posted March 12, 2012 Posted March 12, 2012 Glenn, I like this new series of posts. Can tomorrow's theme be: Of all the smells you've ever smelt, have you ever smelled a smell that smelt like the smell I smelt smelled? Hey, Long Mike, can you check my grammar/spelling on that one!? 1 Quote
Super User SoFlaBassAddict Posted March 12, 2012 Super User Posted March 12, 2012 Visit South Beach. Seriously. You're guaranteed to see some of the most oddball stuff and some of the strangest people ever. When I was installing SOBE W&FF a couple of weeks ago I witnessed some of the oddest stuff. Within the span of twenty minutes I watched a witch doctor trying to bless the sand, a drag queen randomly singing and dancing on Ocean Drive, and some guy practicing to be in a carnival. He strapped a ratchet strap between a pair of palms and did his thing. Until he fell and tried to castrate himself on the strap..... Quote
Super User tomustang Posted March 12, 2012 Super User Posted March 12, 2012 Glenn I think you're forgetting that a K-mart would have more cash in hand than say a Nordstroms or Tiffanys since people that shop there mainly use credit. Quote
Super User slonezp Posted March 12, 2012 Super User Posted March 12, 2012 I live/work in Chicago. Nothing suprises me. I do find Tennessee a bit different though. Quote
Super User Bassn Blvd Posted March 12, 2012 Super User Posted March 12, 2012 My girlfriend and I were at night club. Girlfriend excuses herself to go to restroom. Girlfriend gone mighty long time. I go to check on her. I find girlfriend making out with Ryan Klesko, (when he was playing for the Braves.) Girlfriend is no longer my girlfriend. (nor Ryan's) 1 Quote
Super User Bassn Blvd Posted March 12, 2012 Super User Posted March 12, 2012 Didn't expect to see this either, LMAO. Quote

Our first condo was 10 minutes from South Beach in 1982, before it got "hot". My wife and I love just love South Beach, Hollywood Beach (in Florida) is pretty good too. Once we hit 60, we gave up on Haulover, lol. Quote
Sfritr Posted March 12, 2012 Posted March 12, 2012 Was actually at the boat ramp yesterday to check if the docks were in yet. Watched a husband and wife lauching their boat. The wife, actually, was in the boat Yelling at the husband on his technique. So much so that she made him pull up the ramp and kicked HIM out of truck while backing the boat in by herself... I was laughing hysterically and thinking "this must be opposite day at the ramp" My wife wanted to get out and hug the lady Quote
Super User Redlinerobert Posted March 12, 2012 Super User Posted March 12, 2012 Oh geez. I could go on for hours about this one. I Don't see the issue with KMart for the reason stated above, I would think most people there use cash. So thats actually a pretty smart robber if you ask me. Quote
Super User ww2farmer Posted March 12, 2012 Super User Posted March 12, 2012 After visiting many rural area Walmarts around here nothing shocks me any more. I have yet to see a toddler smoking, or people totaly naked, but I might not be there at the right time. 1 Quote
GrundleLove Posted March 12, 2012 Posted March 12, 2012 idk about you but OCB is EXACTLY where i would expect to see a knifing go down around these parts... Quote

I gotta say walmart is the golden standard for what's to come when seeing how people act in public. I remember one of first things that I've seen there years ago were people shopping in their pajamas a decade ago, I use to think 'yeah that's walmart people' but here it is a decade later and I see it happen more in public now.

scrutch Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 This list is long. I wish I had a dime for every time I saw overstretched spandex at Walmart! GAG! There's a guy that comes to pick up his kids from church on Wednesday night in his pajamas! My wife and I call him PJ boy at home. Quote
Super User Raider Nation Fisher Posted March 13, 2012 Super User Posted March 13, 2012 When I was 16 I saw a heavily pierced fella with purple hair and his 70 year old Grandma in a CD store. When the grandma turned around I saw that she had a tongue ring. Quote
