What can I do to make him see reason?

He should be charged for child endangerment. Seriously

Shit like this is why I’d rather take my chances on a bear.

The cartoon is by the daughter of Martin Mull, who passed away this week.

“Guys”, plural? Maybe improve your vetting process? Maybe have a look at “good guys” and not “bad boys”?

Let’s all prey for Patrick Swayze’s ghost to help her!

True. Sadly many guys like this are entirely self-aware of their behavior and how it might send a significant other running away eventually, so they built ways of trapping them in the relationship that can include threatening to harm their own children.

“She needs to leave him”

At least we are not thanking God for this miracle. VS the engineers, fabricators, etc

Weird flex, but okay

Wait until this woman give his beloved car a door ding or something.

Given the numbers involved I think it would still be small claims court which is a bench trial(no jury).  I think most judges would throw this out for the shit show it is but there is a chance you get a real asshole judge who rules in this jerks favor.   

What if they got him a bicycle instead?  I mean, and divorce papers, yeah, but dipshits on bicycles is kind of a Lance thing, no?

Seems like the kind of case that would get postponed indefinitely after the judge reads the details. Or if they are a rare judge that doesn’t have a over a year backlog of cases, they let it go to trial just so they can verbally horse whip him and bait him into a contempt charge so they can toss his butt in jail.

A cousin of mine married a spoiled brat husband like this, whose parents also bought him a car that he spends money customizing instead of saving for his family he can’t afford. He’s done equally stupid stuff like this and would behave in the same manner.

Take me to court, bud. I look forward to your testimony in front of the court. I’m going to want the jury to hear my daughter testify and see the photos of her injury, she’s absolutely got the guts for it. I am, however, unclear at which point you will get charged with child neglect.

His name is Lance.

Yeah, if that’s not a prank and I was the neighbor I would pay the guy’s deductible and wait for the car to get fixed and then immediately smash another window. No scratches or dents, just smash the window and put a doll in the car seat with “X” for eyes.

I join the chorus of people saying they hope this is made up, but... I have dated guys who were just that self centered. Too many of them too. Every single one of them was a giant walking:
