    why did i click into any of those lol

    love this comment tho

    [–]nogoodnamesleft426 44 points 2 days ago* This didn’t happen in SF, but i remember sometime 10-12 years ago, i was in Mountain View and saw an RV parked on the street next to a DIY car wash, and there was a long orange extension cord plugged into an outlet on the car wash property with the other end of the extension cord leading into the RV.

    The owner/driver of the RV was so blatantly siphoning electricity that i called the non-emergency number of the police department to report it. I did wait around to see that they sent two officers to talk to the RV owner, but i ended up leaving before i could see if they made him unplug his cord or not.

    I understand completely the plight of some of the RV folks who are truly struggling and who work around here and genuintely need help. But regardless of if that’s the case or not, i have ZERO sympathy for things like siphoning electricity or gas, leaving garbage and in general causing trouble. If the police need to come down hard on those people, so be it.

    Edit: why TF am i being downvoted? Can anyone explain what is so bad/wrong about my comment? You really think it’s okay for someone to just steal someone else’s electricity like that? Who the hell do you think has to pay the electrical bill every month??

    WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU NARC ON SOMEONE STEALING ELECTRICITY FROM A RANDOM CARWASH. bunch of fucking losers. seriously.
