throwing buckets of urine

Were these multiple buckets filled with urine, or the same one being refilled from some sort of urine barrel?

Why was a woman who lit her sleeping boyfriend on fire granted bail?

TuteTibiImperes: Why was a woman who lit her sleeping boyfriend on fire granted bail?

Probably to save them the money of actually feeding her in jail.

PA law is full of little traps and tricks to wring every last mill from the citizens of the state. Why would they want to turn around and actually spend any of it?

One of the more recent episodes of the podcast Dumb People Town covered her story (the fire/pee bucket thing) and it was wild. So this is a sad outcome but hardly a surprising one.

They were living in the basement of her mother's house. They didn't have a toilet down there. To avoid going upstairs (laziness, arguments, who knows), they peed in jugs.

Yes, really.

"The couple had been urinating in buckets so they wouldn't disturb her parents who lived upstairs."

Finally. The article answers the most pressing question I had after reading the headline.

Whenever I start complaining about my life, I try to think about all the people who have it worse than me. Having to live in someone's basement and piss in a bucket will be one of the first things I think of now. :::shudder:::

I started listening when they had on Karen and Georgia from My Favorite Murder. It's really funny, and the premise seems made for farkers.

Maybe when he screamed he was on fire she said "Urine luck--I have something to put it out with!"

I suppose she could have purchased it ahead of time...

I found DPT from their ad on MFM, coincidentally enough. Probably the first time a podcast advertisement has actually convinced me to do something. Both MFM and DPT have that sort of "friends sitting around bullshiatting, occasionally addressing a central theme" feel to them, which I've found is great for helping the time pass at work.

Because she didn't. He lit himself on fire when trying to lig a cig. She saved his life. But she was a junkie, so fark that lady.

Just out of curiosity, what's with the hate for drug users? I get the standard "don't like" that most people have (for everything except weed basically) but you turn it up an order of magnitude with the praying for their deaths in every thread.

Because they are legally required to except in very narrow cases. Danger to society, flight risk, prior prison escape, something like that.

Is it the lesson about double-ended dildos, or that even as a miserable junkie, Jennifer Connolly was still smokin'?
