“My cousin picked up a hitchhiker about 20 years ago.
My cousin was hungry, so they stopped at McDonald’s and grabbed the hitchhiker some breakfast, too.
Then, they dropped him off where he said he was headed.

“She would steal my underwear, wear them during that time of the month, and put them back in my underwear drawer, unwashed."
No big deal.”
“The next morning, my cousin’s watching the morning news and sees that hitchhiker’s face.
Dude was a serial killer and had killed someone that picked him up.

Cousin calls the cops and they have him come in.
Turns out the hitcher had killed the verynextperson after my cousin who had given him a ride.
He’d killed a few people who had given him rides, that was his MO.

They asked the hitcher why he didn’t kill my cousin.
I couldn’t kill someone that bought me breakfast.'”

“I had something similar happen to me.

I was hungry so I asked the driver to drive by McDonald’s first.
And I got a bunch of food and invited the taxi driver as well.
We had a good conversation and later on, he dropped me off.

But because I bought him food he didn’t go through with it.

“Someone made brownies with ground meat in them for a church potluck.

My vegetarian friend discovered this when she bit into one.
She was more confused and horrified about their existence than she was upset about eating meat.
I thought she had to be wrong.

Then I tried them.
I was disgusted and really, really, really confused.”
“Years later, I found out that apparently, this was a thing.

“My roommate poisoned my food.
She started out with ‘harmless’ pranks like putting salt in my jello before it set.

Then she put bleach in my pasta water, as if I wouldn’t fucking smell bleach noodles.

It’s been called that ever since.”

“My uncle got out and the man drove away with his girlfriend and pulled a weapon on her.
She immediately opened the door and jumped out while he was driving.
My uncle and his girlfriend reconvened and were okay, but were trying to process what happened.
It was Ted Bundy.”

People started eating them and complaining that they tasted like dirt.

This was a mixed department potluck, and we havent found the person that brought the nine-year-old chips.”
