Guy picks up date with a sexy gay “realtor” from Craigslist. Chicago area. It’s here this year in these comments somewhere too.

The murder date story is here again this year. I’m not even mad. He told it again rather than copying/paste, somehow it’s more horrifying this way.

Thanks.

Gaaaaaaaaaaaah. The suicide haunted house story didn’t freak me out as much as this did. It’s like they could see it uuuuuggh.

Maybe I posted this here a few years back, I can’t remember. Last year I posted my (bittersweet) ghost story, I thought this year I’d go with something real that still upsets me a lot when I think about it.

I remember your story and I appreciate the re telling. Versus copy/pasting. Umm glad you got the fuck out of there.

That reminds me of when Brett and Jermaine were mugged in Flight of the Conchords... lol and glad she was safe.

Yep. Or tell a story, that’s another one.

Same!

Holy shit shut it down you win. This is right up there with Look At Me from a few years ago. Jesus I’m so glad they didn’t escalate.

I can attest that this approach is extremely off putting to bullies.

Like, I think I would have probably stood there staring at him wide eyed, wondering why he thought that would intimidate me and the whole thing would have gone over my head.

Oh right. That makes more sense to me then (autistic).

Not at all. If that means my mind is unencumbered by bullshit fears of things that don’t happen, then good. See also: Jaws.

It sucks you were scared and I’m sorry... but it’s unlikely an already lit cigarette is going to cause a problem https://www.google.com.au/amp/s/www.scienceabc.com/eyeopeners/can-cigarette-ignite-light-puddle-gasoline-fire.html%3Fisamp=1

Same! I dig it up and read it to people sometimes. Gaaaaaaah.
