Not my experience, but my grandma (86 years old) told me about this woman from her area who was supposedly together with her dad (as in, this woman’s own dad) for decades. My grandma is a strong believer that this rumor is indeed true, because apparently it was indirectly confirmed by the woman’s ex-husband and the dad’s ex-wife multiple times. Both of them are dead now, the dad died in 2013 and the woman in 2016. Truly insane. Very curious about your own communities’ scandalous rumors.
That while Hollywood actor Armie Hammer was dealing with some personal issues, including rumors that he was into cannibalism and that he abused some girlfriends, he spent some time near Joshua Tree. Not long after, around 6 bodies were discovered at various times and places in the desert.
I just googled him and the first thing that came up is that his mother bought him a vasectomy for his birthday. She knows lmao
You think he ate em?
My cousin lived next to a crazy old man and his family for most of our lives. The old man just went about his day carrying a shotgun, mind you over here its very rare to see anyone carrying any guns so boldly, and was quick to anger. His family always argued that it was an old useless shotgun he kept from being a hunter in his youth. No one knew enough about guns to argue otherwise, but it did look pretty old. Eventually he kicked the bucket and the family moved elsewhere, selling the house to a relative of theirs that my uncle knew. It was pretty sudden. So this relative is just casually drinking with my uncle and offhandedly mentions that the house was terribly built so he was getting the walls and some floors redone. He mentions that the crew found this big block of cement buried in sand in what seemed to be what was left of an underground water reservoir, joking that it was about the size of a person. My uncle asked him a few days later but he panicked and denied anything of the like.
There were always rumours that the old man had killed someone due to how quick to anger he was, and this almost solidified it in my uncle and cousin’s minds.
tl;dr that my cousin’s crazy neighbor killed someone and he&his family hid their body inside their house. Further supported by the family leaving as soon as he died and the new owner backtracking after mentioning finding a suspicious block of cement when remodeling the house.
It’s damned hard for a shotgun to end up useless. I restore old shotguns, have one from most decades starting in the 1890s. No matter how beat they were when they showed up, they worked just fine.
This wasn’t in my community, but I worked with a guy once who was going through a rough breakup, and he shared some of the details with me and another coworker. Some of it was pretty wild.
Apparently, his girlfriend found out he’d been looking at videos from a particular model, who he said looked like someone he had a crush on but never pursued because he was in a relationship.
The twist is that this was during the whole “what are you doing, stepbro?” meme era, and the model he liked happened to make videos with those kinds of cheesy, over-the-top storylines because they were really popular at the time.
It gets even better, though. He wasn’t actually into that genre of content. He just liked the model, and to avoid awkwardness, he always muted the sound when he watched, saying that if you ignored the titles and kept it muted, you wouldn’t even know what kind of video it was. He also said the acting was so bad it was almost funny.
On its own, it might not seem like a big deal, but it stuck with me because after all that, he had to explain to his girlfriend that he had a crush on this girl they both knew or risk her thinking he was into that weird, meme-based content.
