The extra r in the title of the video really shows how pro the revenge is.
Yarrr, Prrrorrrevenge, matey!
It's grrrrreat revenge!
Or it was written by a cat
Lol, I did NOT see that! XD
Revenge so pro, it deserves a prrromotion!
I had a similar passport thing happen to me. For a time, I lived in a country with a questionable government, and in a city where locals called the police 'the mafia'. There were 'fines' (read bribes) for everything, especially at times leading up to major holidays.
One day, I was walking down the street doing my regular thing, breaking no laws, when a cop stopped me - I was obviously a foreigner and so presumably 'was rich'. The cop asked to see my ID, which I had to show him, so I gave him my passport. The cop told me, OK, now you must pay 'a fine' to get it back. I explained to the cop that the passport belongs to my government - it says that right on the passport, so I would let my consulate know and he could explain to my government why he was keeping the passport from me, the person my government authorized to carry it.
Yeah. The cop gave me my passport back.
Imma be honest, the OP from Dick’s story…. Homeboy really did redefine revenge porn
Good one! Thank you for a chuckle to start my day.
I almost spat out my drink... thats a good one.
yo, thats good
@@supervegito2277 You spat out? Hmmm.
Not sure how I feel about that one... They didn't sound like they were 18, so a kid showing other kids porn to get back at his classmate is uhhhhh... I dunno. Feels sketchy and gross to me.
I'm in my thirties tho so meh.
A friend had a similar experience with a landlord. Moved in only to discover bedbugs! Landlord feigned ignorance and refused to take care of it. Friend talked to neighbors in his hallway and if course they were all dealing with bedbugs and had been for months. Friend organized tenants to submit complaints to License and Inspections. City quickly sent an inspector who insisted on a very expensive remediation process. Also, friend gave inspector the door code to come and go as she pleased. She inspected that 10 story building top to bottom and found tons of violations. Oh and my friend got out of the lease and moved. 😂😂
Oh my gosh... I would've been going crazy, because I have a real disgust or even phobia from them.. luckily I live in a country where we don't have them usually.. Only in homeless shelters usually but not in homes/apartments etc..
@@minnarosenqvistmr Yeah, he had to bag up all his clothing and wash it. Threw out his mattress... it was all a mess. Luckily I had a spare room he could stay in. They eventually ripped out the apartment's flooring and replace it because the infestation was that bad.
@@fdm2155That pisses me off!🤬 I should hope he sued that landlord's balls off for the replacement of his ruined furniture. A mattress is expensive, like 2 to 4 hundred bucks!
@@SinisterScoundrel6562 He negotiated an exit to his lease along with a small financial compensation. But mostly he wanted out of that building AND to know that the inspector was dinging them for everything she found. Once she had the code to the front door (from my friend) she could turn up and walk the building at her leisure.
Some of those infractions were thousands of dollars to correct. The managers were doing all sorts of things like improperly storing a ton of stuff in the basement - unsafe/fire hazard. Wrong door at the main entry. Lack of inspections for their elevator which was also in need of repair.
29 Palms is a USMC base right outside 29 Palms, California. The base population is probably 10x what the town population is. It's mostly used as a training and logistics base. There's a few permanent units there, since 80% of the base are live fire ranges so those units can train. It also serves a joint training base for other branches to train before deployment.
That's my hometown. 😊
I been there when i served and yeah and slept on the ranges so. 😂😂 the min i heard shitty command i knew exactly where this was going
Exactly! Even the wiki states the population (don’t know if this includes the base or not) is about 26k. Not exactly a tiny little unknown town.
29 palms is a United States Marine Corps base and trust me. If any truck drove down those roads I guarantee you it needed every bit of the suspension re-done and probably two tires patched
Lol so much truth. The roads through 29, Joshua tree, and yucca valley are always crap and never smooth
That place is the main reason marines leave broke as shit
How Dabney managed to "research" 29 Palms, and somehow miss the base, makes me wonder if the dude has anything between his ears.
lol I thought that too “yeah it’s a small community but it literally has this big ass base on it… 🤔 “
@@SkunkApe407 to be fair the marine corps forgot about 29 palms
Story 2: Geez, how many times has Dick pulled this stunt before? He's a procrastinator who lies, cheats, and steals from others because he would rather ruin other people's grades than accept that he's just terrible at group projects.
I hope this is lesson learned
and the fact nobody had his back to cause everyone already hate him so he had nobody with him but his parent
Idk if it’s just me but the story just seems so fake.
@xxoxEVAxoxx i was thinking the same thing cause the teacher was gonna fail OP for their name not being on it? But they had to have proof that Dick wasnt doing the work.
I'm sorry it is so easy to forget or erase a name and the teacher would know that soooooo and op said the teacher didnt like dick either
I almost had that happen to me with one person on a five-person group project taking credit for a couple of the slides that I made and presenting them as if they made them, but the project was on Google Slides which saves the history of who edited the document, and I emailed the teacher after the presentation letting them know that their only edit on the slideshow was putting their name on the slides that I made. Not sure what happened to them after, but I got a good grade and that was enough for me.
Notably, another person on the project *almost* didn't have their stuff done on time, but the day before they reached out to me and told me how lost they were and asked for help, and I was able to give them directions and clarity that helped them to finish their parts in the slideshow. It wasn't easy; I had to teach this person how to use *citations*. For a junior-level college class. I hope the help I gave that person helped them do better in their other classes and reaffirmed that it's good to ask for help.
Unfortunately I don't think he learned anything. At least if the "Dick"s in my life are anything to go off
For Dick Dickerson story, if that teacher had even the tiniest amount of computer knowledge, they could have checked to see who was the creator of the document…so sad when lack of tech experience penalizes good students
I was wondering how deleting OP's would prove anything since couldn't OP just delete Dick's name everytime?
The final story: The cops may or may not be increasing the fine(s) to make side money, but to me it sounded like it was just a way for the police officers to have to do less work by getting the people to come to them.
PrroRevenge: When regular ProRevenge isn't good enough. :P
While in high school, we had a group project in history. We had to write a paper on Ireland. My friend and I were glad we were put together and then we had to have another person. He was a looser. He said he would write it if we did all the research. We did and handed over a shoebox full of index cards in order and we also included an outline. We gave this to him 2 weeks before the paper was done. On the due date, he didn’t show up. He came back 3 days later with a 2 page paper, saying we hadn’t given him enough information and he had to do everything himself. Luckily, before handing over our info, we had showed it all to our teacher. We passed-he failed.
Loser*
That was a really smart move! I’m glad you showed it to the teacher before handing it off to someone else.
I mean what did he really do to deserve that though. Like all you said is “he was a loser” which is not very specific and not much of a justification for screwing him over. From what it seems he didn’t really do much other than say he could write all of it and then you made him fail
@@TheWeirdkid_64 whenever he was in a group project, he NEVER did the work and then blamed it on the people he was working with. All my classmates knew this.
@@amyspeers8012 ok well yea that justifies what you did and makes alot more sense with that context
Lol RSlash....you need to do more investigating on stuff. 29 palms...my hometown, is small yes, but its home to americas largest military base and that post has like 2x as many people on it than the town right outside the base. Its completely normal to see convoys of trucks driving through town or convoys of tanks on flat bed trucks going through town every week. Helicopters from there used to fly over my house every single day when i was a kid living there 25 years ago and it hasnt changed.
"You make too much money, therefore you deserve a worse apartment"
What?
Edit: Where tf do these people live that the man thought he could do anything he did or threatened to do???
OP was a very naïve idiot to think that that line was normal.
Yeah, the amount of money their tenant makes shouldn't matter to them, just that they get their rent (though, admittedly, it can matter when deciding to rent to someone, but that's only if they make too little to actually rent the place). My guess, the slumlord just wanted to rent the apartment to someone else for more money and so tossed OP into an apartment he couldn't rent out to anyone. Still, I don't think what they did was at all legal.
@@akl2k7
If the amount of money their tenant makes does matter to them that much, then the fact that they make good money should lead to a more expensive place, not a worse one. The logic there is completely unsound.
Just charge OP more and come up with an excuse for that. If the goal was to make more money, and OP supposedly makes a lot of money, then how is moving OP into a worse, cheaper place the solution? It genuinely makes ZERO sense.
Also, a landlord absolutely should be at least somewhat concerned with a tenant's income, given their relationship does actually depend entirely on whether the tenant can pay them.
@Richard_Nickerson Unfortunately, this was a scammer operating on scammer logic and preying on someone inexperienced. Their goal was to make as much money as possible in as little time without regard for long-term consequences while hoping the tenants aren'tsmart enough to report what happened.
that first story reminds me of an apartment I once lived in. It was an old house split into 3 units (basement, middle floor, top floor). I lived on the top floor and my friend lived in the basement part. I had gotten evicted at one point because I had lost my job and fell behind on rent. So I moved in with my friend. The landlord lived an entirely different city. After I got booted out, I sent an email to a local building inspector mentioning mold, the dangerous stairs, and the fact that there were pigeons in the ceiling of the top unit. One day maintenance came to my friend's unit with a dehumidifier and tried to get him to sign a form saying it has always been there, he refused. Shortly after, they received a notice saying the building was condemned. After we moved out, we popped back down on the day to watch the building be imploded.
11:30 - In the Army you get promoted into leadership by earning promotion points. When I was in a few years back beofre the APFT overhaul, you got points in this way : High PT score (physical fitness), High range score (pew pew), Going to the board (rote memorization and how buddy buddy you are with the higher ups on the board), awards (in my unit, you were given awards not based on what you did but who you knew). Now the Airforce - last I heard - you have to take exams that relate to your MOS in order to prove that you have the technical expertise to go up in rank. The Army needs to add that because this "good ol boy" stuff leads to not-technically proficient people getting promoted.
Back in the late 1970s in my first hitch in the Airforce promotions up to E4 Buck Seargent were automatic. Then the top brass figured they had too many young inexperienced NCO Seargents, not yet ready for leadership. They created the new Senior Airman rank, still E4 but not an NCO. Basically it just meant waiting another year before making Seargent and NCO status. Still no real training or courses.
Later in early 1980s in my second hitch - US Navy - we got our E4 NCO rank upon completing A School for our rating (job specialty). We then had to take courses to advance to E5, as well as be in the group that was allowed to advance. Sometimes there might not be enough new E5 slots for all who qualified.
Being an "OSVET" or Other Service Veteran when I joined the Navy, I'd had to drop a rank from E4 to E3 during training. So about another year delay in being able to advance again.
knowing that people get promoted by nepotism really makes everyone of a higher rank look bad imo.
Story 3: 7 ton trucks are exclusive to the US Marine Corps. 29 Palms (the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center) is the biggest single base the USMC has, covering more than 998 square miles of the high desert, which makes it larger than some small countries. So the local city may be relatively small, Dabney - but the base certainly isn't!
Story 3: Moral of the story, don't be an arsehole, and let the experts do the work. Let the logistics work with logistics, not the non-logistics. Keep your nose away
" what people who specialize in something do what they train for?, nah, that isn't good enough" - management
The military believes in "cross-training"
29 palms is a Marine base.
Yeah, basically just step in when something goes wrong or check in from time to time to make sure things are going well. Micromanagement does no one any favors.
“Dick’s parents once tried to spread a rumor that my parents were having an extra marital affair.”
Wow. Rotten apple doesn’t fall far from the rotten tree, it seems.
The military: Johnson, EXPLAIN these 4 cents above your approved food budget, NOW!
Also the military: Hey Gregson? WHERE are these 92 billion dollars going? It says here we received them... but there's no papers on WHERE they went... - I unno! Who cares?
doesnt black mould just mean youre not allowed to rent out or live in the place? that man put OPs life in danger
Like the Landlord cared?
@bibigamer502 well no, clearly he didn't.
Landlords aren't human. They're insects, they don't have feelings.
"Just", heh. Dude, that shit kills people.
@wmdkitty purely talking renting laws and stuff, the final sentence was about that.
Story 1 is actually a type of renters scam, “landlords” will have 1 property they keep up to date and nice that they’ll get new tenants into and then after a month or two will ask them to transfer into another rental that they don’t maintain. Get new tenants into nice place and repeat. That way they can ask for rent prices of the nicer home from people who are not in nice homes anymore.
Hearing this military story just makes me think of that one movie scene where they were like we respect the rank, not person. For me, is the rank really worth anything if you're giving it to such shity people.
Any huge organization-and the US armed forces are nothing if not huge-is going to have their share of assholes and idiots. We hear about corporate assholes and idiots all the time, and yet commerce continues!😂 The US armed forces also have their share of competent, hardworking people and, fortunately, it’s way bigger than the share of assholes and idiots!
Respecting rank and not the person just means. "Yes, we'll follow your orders, but I'm not going to make it a priority or do it well if at all." Ignoring orders is something that, as military, we can't just do willy nilly. You get into legal trouble. Not that it does much, you're not a Marine unless you have an NJP and all
@@JosieJOK So very true. We had more than our fair share of arsehats in the Navy. One on my ship tried to get me in trouble with an Article 15 for something I didn't do. I upped it to Captain's Mast, which had much stiffer penalties and would have ruined me had it gone against me. Surprise, AH! He was the one who got ruined. I was an E4 not planning to stay in. He was an E6 planning on a career. Later he committed a serious crime upon leaving the ship, and NIS was not amused. Got him some prisontime. 😂
"Band Of Brothers", for one. The guy from "Fiends", Schwimmer?, played a dbag officer that everyone hated, but someone mentioned to another as he passed to "salute the rank, not the man".
Um, Rslash... 29 Palms is the largest Marine Corps base in the US, also known as the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center.
Aye. And it's a big empty desert shit hole....ahh I sometimes miss my hometown
I was going to say something similar.
Yep, and as units rotate out there they have a ton of vehicles going in and out.
Last Story: It never ceases to amaze me how people like that end up being cops. He really tried to claim nothing was stolen, as if he is immune to criminal charges because he is a cop.
Here’s a fun joke:
What’s the difference between the mafia and the cops.
Organization.
An officer’s routine is messy and lacks consistency due to variants of criminal activity or how much is going on. Corruption gives organization and consistent routine, it feels calmer knowing what to expect.
Story 1: Nothing better than when someone does their effin' job and makes sure a building they own is liveable.
"must be a tiny town"
Hmm 40-80 people, maybe less than a dozen?
Rslash: (lists a number in the thousands) whoah nelly, that's pretty large all things considered
40-80 people isn't a town, that's a hamlet. Although, the town being described would be a large town.
Yes, I'm a nerd, and yes, I'm fun at parties.
@@transsnackngl im the exact same i pick up on everything
I think 5,000-2,000 is a small town, anything less is considered a village
A town would be at least in the thousands, I think
Small 5000 - 20 000
Medium 20 000 - 75 000
Large 75 000 - 225 000
This is for towns, any larger and it would be a city. Smaller and it’s a village, tribe, hamlet, homestead, or settlement.
Legally in the US, a town is 10,000 people.
Places with 200 or less is legally a village.
A rural area is 500-5,000.
But since were not speaking legalease and most of you dont even know the actual government guidelines...it seems youce proven my point in the most roundabout way. For a lot of people, a town is a lot of different things.
So...did OOP ever find out what happened to his wife's passport? Cause thats not something I'd like to be just... floating around 😶
Apartment story: I live in a city that's considered higher class and one of the best school districts....if you have a house. But the apartments and mobile home parks are often neglected. The new Fire Marshall got the city inspectors on board to change things. Every single complex in the city got cited for inspection failures. The one I live in was the only one that responded to the press. My unit by far was not the worst. I had one major complaint and fortunately was able to get them to fix it after the 3rd property management group in under 2 years. I feel bad for them. The fallout isn't their fault. They had no real idea what they were walking into. The old company dumped everything on their desk on a Wednesday and left. I'm glad stuff is getting cleaned up, but I'm so scared for rent to go up. We can't afford it and a lot of residents cant. Our only saving grace is the last PM group after raising rent 15% and preparing to try and raise it another 25%, lost a crap ton of tenants. They're still trying to fill vacant units even after dropping the price. No one wants to pay mortgage prices for 800 sq ft, even if they can't get approved for a mortgage. They move to other newer apartment complexes. The landlords letting stuff like that go on are something else. Glad OP got her revenge and hopefully it made things better for the next tenants
Twenty-Nine Palms has a Marine base. So, don't worry - they did stay within the DoD chain of custody. They did not end up in some small town USA Main Street.
So not only did OP get revenge on Dick, but also Dick's parents for their own parents. Now THAT'S ProRevenge!
No, it’s Prrorevenge!
(Said like Tony the Tiger)
I’ve never had a landlord like what op had but I’ve heard stories.
The 2nd story I’ve known someone who was like dick I’ve never had a pro revenge on this person but I’ve told the teacher when I had to be parents with this person
You had to be their parent!?
That last story needs to make local news. "Cops pay for theft from car break ins to boost registration ticket numbers" is hella illegal and smells like a class action to me.
I
-adopted a puppy
-Went to my first pro wrestling show
-got a van even though I can’t drive on my own, but I’ll have my caregiver back soon
I’m finally not in such a hurry to die. I’m still ready and excited for when the time comes… but I’m finally slowing down a little and learning how to get through the day.
If you’re feeling really depressed or worse… get a pup/dog/rescue! It helps you relax and put things into perspective. Love you Rslash! ❤
What if you're allergic and/or afraid of dogs?
@@meowatbabiesthecat They have allergy tablets if it’s only minor allergies. If you’re afraid, slowly work up to that. First, see some other dogs, maybe friends and family dogs, and let the dogs warm up to you. It’s a process!
When the entire family is warming the house for a party and you're in a suit with your niece and nephew while listening to rslash prorevenge 😂
Cheers to everyone!
"Prrorevenge" Trying to become a cat? 😂
As a Military Veteran I can confirm that story of Gov't waste.
Well, many times the stories we hear of "$600 hammers" doesn't take into account the time, fuel and other logistics costs involved in shipping these "cheap" items to where they need to go. At my Airforce base in my first hitch, we'd order aircraft parts and they'd be flown in that evening on a C-9 transport plane. I'd guess the costs got amortised across all items.
In my second hitch I switched to the Navy. I'd often order a part and wait weeks for it's arrival. If at sea, it became a game of the part chasing the ship around. I once ordered an electronic part for a radio. A couple weeks later I get notified it's waiting for me on the pier. It was a danged watertight door! Send it back and reorder. A couple weeks, get the notice.... got me a lower clear window for a Huey helicopter! Sadly not joking! Third try was the charm, finally got my part.
Another time, I ordered two things, a 1/2" diameter nylon washer and a simple toggle switch. The cost of that little washer was $150! The switch came attached to a big heavy bulkhead mounted metal box. Cost.... $12! And I had to paint the switch red as they sent me black, the wrong color! 😂
Navy Supply System, that's the real adventure! 😊
Once I needed a simple fuse, didn't have it in stock on board. Not wanting to wait, I went offbase and bought it, just a few cents. My Seniorchief found out I bought a part myself, and chewed me out!😮
I see Hugo is finally pulling his weight,
and doing the titles for Rslash. 😂
Yugo
29 Palms is not just a small town it’s a marine training base so the army soldier sent the trucks that needed to be up armored to the marines
My brother was in the military. They found out that a married Sargent was sleeping with a private that was under his command. Apparently, the military has a rule against adultery. They put the PRIVATE on trial for adultery & she was discharged for it. Nothing happened to the sargent. So they wasted money on the trial AND were incredibly misogynistic about it. The private confided in my brother that she was being mistreated by the sargent when she was rebuffing his advances, so while she wasn't forced, she didn't feel like she had much of a choice.
I can't even count how many times group projects almost ruined my grades growing up. Unfortunately my generation's teachers were taught sticking the worst students in class with the best was a great thing to do, because the peer pressure on the students who could care less about their grades would somehow make them do actual work. Of course it didn't because most of the time these students weren't stupid and in need of help, they were lazy and truly could care less if they flunked classes.
I once had a middle school project where we had to make are own board game. You were allowed to use an actual board game as a hard base for support, but had to cover up the real game board with the game your group created. My group members didn't listen to me when I explained this and insisted my Candy Land board without any alterations would be fine. Finally when we only had 1 day left to work on the project the teacher told my other group members I was right and we couldn't use Candy Land without covering the board with one we had made ourselves. So we were left with less than one class period to quickly design a board, draw it, color it, and get it taped down so it didn't ruin my board game underneath.
As a result it of course looked rushed and way worse than anyone else's in class. The entire project got C- because the board was a huge part of the grade. My mother ended up talking with the teacher about how I and one other girl in the group of 5 had not only done all the work but had advocated for a week that we needed to make our own board and weren't listened too. Thankfully the teacher had been paying attention and had heard the other group members refuse to make a board. She had also seen them practically do nothing while the other girl and I did everything. She agreed to change my grade and hers to a B- so that we would not lose the high A's we currently had in that class.
It turned out okay but should have never happened as we (the other girl and I) should never have been put in a group with 3 of the laziest (because no they weren't dumb, one girl was even very smart they just didn't want to work) students in the class simply because we had good grades. The fact that "Dick" was allowed to run free and ruin other people's grades reminds me of incidents like mine so much.
TLDR: Don't put bad students with good students for group projects it's not fair on anyone if the student is bad because they're lazy and uncaring, not because they truly need help. It's also not a student's responsibility to teach someone else with a worse grade than them if they aren't an actual tutor.
Story 3 is 100% a Marine. Someone told me this story as a warning against the Good Idea Fairy and also reading before you sign.
Also 29 Palms is a base! It’s located in the fuckin Mojave desert and I was stuck there for three months in the summer for a training exercise
I was going to say this.
I was there for 9 months from October to July as a student in MCCES. Dunham chow hall was the best.
@@gabrieldavidson4442 they gotta have something to compensate for the base being in the middle of the damn desert
lol I know of a single incident where 2 idiots cost almost 50 million $$. An Air Force pave hawk had an emergency precautionary landing under fire in Afghanistan. 122 From the 82nd CAB sent out a DART to recover the helicopter. The 2 idiots were a QC SSG and an officer MTP. They gave the order to dump fuel. So someone has to go under the aircraft to dump fuel. Someone also told the remaining recovery crew to remove the blades from the helicopter. The blades have steel and titanium. They would have to use a saw. The fuel is called JP8. It’s a lot like diesel fuel. It reaches its flash point at higher temperatures. Lucky for them it’s a very hot Afghanistan summer day. The fuel catches. The guys under spot the fire first. They get out. The guys on top abandon the aircraft. All their gear is in or on the aircraft including weapons and ammunition. The aircraft frame is magnesium. There is nothing they can do at this point except to make sure they are not within arc of the 2 door gunner weapons. Miraculously, nobody was injured. Someone had to stay to ensure the aircraft was completely destroyed. They couldn’t leave anything recognizable. I can’t imagine being the one who has to explain that.
29 palms has anywhere from 10 to 20k active duty with 20k+ family. Then well over 50k cycle in and out all year for training. 4 trucks is a tiny delivery for that base.
US Marine here! 29 Palms is one of the largest military bases in the country owned by the United States Marine Corps with thousands of square miles of training areas. A shipment of 4 trucks would probably go unnoticed for a while because a lot of hardware passes through for various training events for all branches.
29 Palms, CA: the largest marine base we have. MCAGCC, Marine Corp Air to Ground Combat Center. There are about 15,000 marines on base, adding to the population of 29 Palms residents, which is about 10-15,000. Percent was there during Bush 1’s presidency. Everyone trained in 29, then shipped out to the Middle East. They also came home from the Middle East via 29.
I remember my first training rotation to the National Training Center (NTC), at the end of it, I and a bunch of other guys got a cushy detail loading the tracked vehicles we brought onto rail cars and tying them down.
This was much preferred to repairing the tanks we borrowed fixed.
One day, we had to go to 29 Palms for something or other. It's primarily a boneyard for older vehicles. One of the M47s there even had a big divot in its frontal armor from being shot at by something.
Rslash, 29 Palms is not only the town but also the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center. It additionally handles all communications training for The Corps. Think massive live fire range where division size units can train together.
29 Palms is a Marine Training center. The town is small, the base is big. If you are a Marine heading farther west, I'm pretty sure you are headed to Hawaii, but they came from one of the farthest east posts so it is about as far as it can go by train and ended up somewhere that "makes sense."
Imagine how much money the landlord could have saved if they were a decent person
penny wise, pound foolish. that kinds of attitude is everywhere, sadly.
Yeah, this kind of thing is about making a quick buck. If they'd spent some money up front making sure everything was up to code, they'd be able to actually rent the apartment without any fines down the road and possibly even be able to rent it at a higher price, but of course, they have to have money now, so they decided to be a slumlord instead, even when it doesn't benefit them in the long run.
Years ago in the Army we got a new commander assigned to our unit in Germany. He was some snotty know it all who was very pretentious about everything. He found out that because of his new command he was authorized to have a helicopter assigned to him personally. He wanted to make sure absolutely everything went perfectly getting this thing shipped to us, including all the paperwork. Took about a month for a huge truck (with a crane attached to it) to show up, supposedly with his new toy. He pointed out the pad that he had built to the delivery squad and went off post for a while. When he got back his brand new 80 ton anchor was sitting on its new display pad. It cost so much to ship this thing that they made him keep it and he didn't get his helicopter LMAO the locals laughed their butts off at the huge anchor on an army base in the middle of Germany nowhere near an ocean.
If this had been in the US.
For the last story that sounds like institute of Justice is just going to come through and give them a new butthole. The lawsuit on that would be so massive. ( Not because they were failing to enforce the theft because you can't be sued for that but because you could show their involvement by preventing any investigation you could potentially be considered eating and abetting and therefore as guilty as the ones who did it)
With the trucks going to 29 palms, I don't know if the maps will show you but 29 palms base is massive. And another example, if you look for Quantico, VA and Quantico MCB/ Marine corps base, you will find the town inside the base which is several thousand times. The size of the town. I imagine 29 palms is a similar situation
Started my shift yesterday to a new rslash video and 24hrs later I’m ending the same shift to a new rslash video
29 Palms is also the place where every state side Marine Infantry unit goes for desert training. So even though it has a small population. They are almost all Marines and the area is MASSIVE.
As a senior in high school we were given a project to create something related to calculus. The something was vague, but examples were poster, video, essay. The class clown immediately asked if they could make a dirty movie if it related. Everyone but the teacher cracked up, but that was as far as it went.
Later, after I graduated I saw the teacher and she let me know that she too wanted to crack up. Our class was good natured and well behaved, so she wasn't concerned about getting a movie like that, but knew administration would hear about it if she laughed it off.
I live near 29-palms California and for us out here it's the furthest point on the map that no one ever wants to drive to for any reason. The Military mainly uses it to train Marines for Desert Warfare.
'It's a tiny little town, it has to have a population of like, 2,000.'
idk man, that sounds pretty big. Not like, the size of a city, but still like, sizable. Decently big. But what do I know, I live in a tiny town, like less than 1,000 population
he was so off by the population numbers😂 why did he even lie about “looking it up”
@@lillikoontz5289 ikr, 2,000 is nowhere near 27,000 🤣
@@yadfud363 besides the population i feel like lots of people (espec military) have through there or traveled to joshua tree next door. When I worked as a bartender/server out in 29 I met all kinds of people from all over the world who traveled far just to see the Joshua trees. I don’t like how r/slash ignorantly portrayed Twentynine Palms.
For the 3rd story, I'm imagining some other country seeing four huge military trucks going to some ridiculously small town, then going somewhere else as this huge mistake that blew US military secrets like it's a hidden base, or they're using it as a staging ground for something, and freaking out, making plans and counter plans, then someone sees this post.
Hey, cool! I was born in Twentynine Palms, CA! It really is a nothing town, but there is a military base there. Marines, to be specific. My dad was stationed there approximately 100 years ago when I was born. There's a big bombing range out there, IIRC.
I wish the last story get more petty by telling them that one of the stolen document is military secret and those cops are all arrested and interrogated, maybe some threats of sending them to guantanamo.
Funny to hear about Twenty Nine Palms. I lived in Palmdale for about 2 years. One morning, my friend and I were shaken awake early in the morning, due to an earthquake. Apparently it was a 7.2, which started around Twenty Nine Palms, and we felt it in Palmdale.
I'm in my early 50's. I had a stroke a few years ago. My neurologist rightfully took away my driver's license (one of my complications is vertigo. I wouldn't wish a spinning world on my worst enemy!). My U.S. passport was expired and I could not renew my driver's license, so I renewed my passport. Now, I don't have any plans on any international travel, but I do carry the very convenient passport card which is the same size as a driver's license (Yes, I also have the big blue book which resides in my home safe.). I'm just waiting for some poor register attendant/bar keeper/server to ask for my I.D. when I am purchasing an adult beverage. I am willing to wager that they have never seen this form of I.D. It is not issued by my, nor any other state, but issued by the U.S. Department of State.
LMAO one thing you didn't mention about 29 palms which had me cracking up is the fact this little nothing town is also in the middle of nowhere in the california desert. Follow signs for "indio and other desert cities" XDD That's an amazing place to redirect people to
OP is referring to Camp 29 Palms, a Marine base just east of LA. I'm pretty sure it is the biggest Marine base there is. It's enormous and miserable
Guy on that last story is gonna get pulled over every time he leaves his house from now on for committing the greatest crime you can in America: making a cop help a taxpayer.
LOL! dude, 29 palms is the single largest marine tank and air bases in the US, along with where "Top Gun" use to be (before being moved from the area). Home to the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center and Marine Air Ground Task Force Training Command, you won't find a larger set of marine bases anywhere.
29 palms base is a huge base if im not mistaken its one of the biggest it houses 100,000 people the town it's self is around 40,000 people it's the desert about 50 min north of palm springs also has a entrance into joshua tree national park since joshua tree is 29 palms neighboring city
story 1: I don't think that 50k is the fine. They just force him to be a "owner" by improve "his properties" which other non AH owner would do anyway. They need a fine and 100% deposit return for tenants. Now that is a fine.
29 palms is a marine corps base and training camp covering 998 square miles in socal. Idk if the city is related but certainly not tiny and there is definitely a distinct military presence lol
Story 2: OP's PowerPoint was about forces and friction in physics class, and he used explisicit screenshots for his lazy class partner, that's poetry
6:22 the second I heard this I was dead laughing in the middle of my kitchen💀
29 palms is a Marine Corps base where desert environment training is conducted before Marines and their respective equipment is shipped to the middle east from Yuma, AZ. Since it's a military base, it has to have a contingent of personnel who keep it running. It's considered the worst place to be stationed in the Marines and has the nickname of being the armpit of all Marine bases. No one wants to be there.
29 Palms, CA, aka "29 Stumps" by the folks in the area. They have (had?) a Jelly Donut location that was good, but the one in Yucca Valley, CA was much better! I'd stop at 3 am on my way home from work for a warm, gooey cinnamon twist that was fresh out of the glaze! OMG THOSE WERE THE DAYS!!!!
What a crap move from the teacher for story 2. The guys a known work thief. He literally did the simple erase a name, the student already brought it up to the teacher beforehand, but still they gave them lower marks for it. It is even provable who did it if Op got a copy of the PowerPoint to the teacher.
Hey, RSlash. Twentynine Palms is a military base. It’s the largest stateside USMC base. That tiny town is a crack town just outside of base. You should be able to find it under MCAGCC Twentynine Palms. It doesn’t show up just scrolling through the maps app.
Shipping 4 trucks across the country is nothing for wasting taxpayer dollars. We spend anywhere from $10-$25 million for our unit to go from North Carolina to Louisiana for a training mission we could've easily done on base without having to fill up multiple trains, semis, and even some aircraft with stuff. The only people who learn anything we can't currently learn on base is the command team and that could easily be in a simulated environment. Oh yeah, we do this twice a year.
Regarding 29 Palms, yes it's small. It's total area is less than 60 sq miles and the name supposedly came from how many palm trees were there when the town was founded.
OP1: Yeah should have gone to the authorities immediately.
Twentynine palms is a BIG Marine Corps base near a podunk town. Nobody would be surprised when military vehicles arrived there
I always wonder about stories like number 2 and I generally tend to think that the teachers in these stories aren't great teachers. How did this physics teacher not believe OP when they complained repeatedly about having to do all of the work because they didn't have "proof"? What even constitutes that? It would have been simple for them to confirm or deny OPs claims by simply having both students present and seeing if Dick knew literally anything that was written in the assignments. It would have become apparent very quickly that he wasn't doing any work.
29 palms CA is home to the biggest land marine base... the population accounted for is mostly off base. I had seen tanks casually stopped at stop lights on the main street.
Daily rslash, best part of the day!
29 Palms is also a huge military base, there are several military in that part of California
Police: here's your stuff we stole.
Me: what about the plutonium?
Correction for you 29 Palms the town is a small place, but 29 Palms Marine Corps Air and Ground Combat Center is a HUGE Marine Corps installation. It is the premier places for the Marines to do training. Very common for Marine Corps units to ship stuff there for unit training. So this shipment as far as the powers that be at the time were concerned could have been feasible. Still I gigantic F up for that StaffSgt. He should have been busted in rank for that ordeal for incompetence.
If I was the first OP, I would have never moved, but lets say I was naive enough to move. I would have trashed the apartment before i left. Take all the appliances, copper wires, rip up the floor board, take down the drywall. Insulation? Bye bye.
If he tries to sue me, he has to proof that I lived there. It would have probably cost more than 50k, because the construction guys he hired would have seen the "mould" (😂) and the other highly probable issues the place had.
29 Palms is a military base outside of the town of 29 Palms. So yes, there is a base there and yes, they were the ones who received it.
Source: I'm a veteran, and my BIL was stationed there.
The first post is pissing me off not because of OP but bc essentially the same thing happened to me and my dad when I was a teenager and the black mold was everywhere and She entered the property without notice on several occasions( on film) and had been stalking me on my walks home from school. No one would help us when we seeked legal help. No one cared that I was sleeping next to black mold. How did op get people to care 😩
29 Palms is one of the biggest Marine Corps bases in the country. It's used for a lot of training, so lots of open spaces to blow things up.
If you live in Socal, you know what/where 29 palms is. It's not that small, it's just a desert military base with a small town at the entrance. 😂
29 palms does have a Marine Corps base there, i had the distinct honor of riding shotgun in a 7 ton there wearing my flak and kevlar, and then sitting in that truck for the whole training exercise, and the drive back. Sometimes light duty is a blessing, but when all your boys are sitting in a nice airconditioned van and you're stuck in a big ass truck wearing your body armor for 2.5 hours, you wish you could be training too
Fourth story: I would have recorded the conversation and then sue the whole police station because no matter for what they are doing it, break into people's cars and take their stuff is illegal, no mattee what it is what you take or who takes it.
29 Palms is also where the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center is located. According to their site, it's "the worl'ds largest Marine Corps training base."
OMG, did not expect my hometown of 29 Palms, California to be mentioned in a random rslash video lol.
Story 2: Teacher needs 'proof' that Dick isn't contributing but Dick leaving OP's name off the presentation is good enough to nearly fail OP despite OP telling the teacher about the issue earlier? Not to mention that OP would have a copy of the project on their PC with an earlier date then the earliest Dick had.
Imagine someone having the nerve to say you HAVE to rent from them and can't move
A little Rslash before work never hurt nobody
29 Palms is huge and has a population of 27-30k. Everything is spread out there. This doesn't take into account the Marine Base which is practically a city unto itself. I know this because I've camped and rock climbed at the Joshua tree national park nearby.
The truck one and the Dickson one had me laughing pretty hard
Twenty Nine Palms is a Marine Corps Base and the base itself is NOT small, I think it’s either the biggest or second biggest (first possibly being Camp Pendleton) MCB in the world
