  • It definitely sounds like a ‘pig butchering’ scam. They find someone lonely, give them a sob story, proclaim a special bond, talk to them for months, then start asking for money or pumping an investment scheme. Most likely, he would never come to your country, but rather will start saying “i need <thousands of dollars> to travel there…”


  • Lets see, I just looked it up in the city I lived in and no. No permit to replace in the same location, but a license is required for people who don’t live in the house where the work is being performed. I wasn’t remotely qualified to do that especially in less than 18 hours, though. My realtor ended up finding a plumber who could come the next morning.


  • Reminds me of when someone came to fix my bathroom floor, which had a hole in it the entire time my house was on the market because some morons from Home Depot who ruined it were disputing whether they’d fix it. So this guy removed the toilet and sink, finished the bathroom floor, awesome… then he said “oh, I can remove the toilet and sink, but I’m not licensed to put them back, sorry” and left. This was the day before closing.

    Racist phrenology is alive and well among the racists who hang out on 4chan, and definitely, they also apply it to incel theory, mixed with misogyny and a feeling that genetics and society dealt them an unfair and poor hand which can’t be rectified.
