My cat would scream a very human "Help!" when he was in the car with me. I was surprised I was never pulled over. He'd only scream it on the way to the vet but never heading home. He knew what he was doing.
My cat would scream NOOOOOO! whenever I gave her a bath. Picture me with the cat having wrapped its front legs around around my neck all the while screaming NOOOOOO!
Had a Siamese that would cry like a baby. Someone called the police about the crying and was told that we were abusing a baby. When they arrived they beat on the door and demanded we open up. Lau answered the door and screamed at them. They figured it out, said they had to search. Told them to come in. Lau followed them around, complaining all the way.
Cop one wonder just how many cases she failed the victims because of her attitude and incompetence, and just how many murderers and rapists she let go free.
You think rapists get punished? Also... When you listen to enough true crime you realise basically all unsolved cases are such because of cops not doing their jobs properly 🤷♀️

The story about the parrot calling out for help reminds me of the true story of a goat this one family owned on a farm that screamed. In fact it's scream sounded so human that a neighbor living nearby called county police saying that someone was possibly being attacked because of the screaming. When deputies showed up they were told that it was the pet goat that was screaming and were shown the goat in a pen. After a few screams the deputies left but not without taking some videos with their phones. Because of that incident that goat was used in a couple of commercials on nationwide TV, so sometimes our pets can be funny and famous due to the most unlikely talent they have. ⭐⭐⭐⭐🌟🌟🌟🌟⭐⭐⭐🌟🌟🌟🌟
WHY do people like these think they can just trespass, damage property and then blame OTHERS for what they did? Thank you again for video cuteness of your kitty. The city with the same name as an alcoholic beverage - Might be Old Milwaukee. Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
All these Karen’s needed to be raised by my mother growing up. The first word out of her mouth when you asked a question was 99.99% going to be a terse “No” from her. Maybe she could have gotten them used to hearing that word. Funny story: I had just gotten home from High School and was unpacking my bag while my mom was in the office/laundry room on the computer when I asked what was for dinner so I could get anything out to start prep work for it and she was on autopilot and said a terse, “NO” while not looking up. Me being a smart arse teen decided to have fun with her. So I asked how should I prepare the “NO” for dinner. Did it need breading or sautéing, baked or broiled and what sides are we having with it? She looked up at me and shook her head calling me funny. My dad had overhead the exchange outside the back door and was laughing so hard he had tears in his eyes telling my mom I got her good. My mom did snicker and told me we were having grilled cheeseburgers on the skillet and to go get the burger meat out so my dad can get it prepped while I peeled potatoes for fries.
Wide-spread and large deficiency of Vitamin N it seems. Guess that's expected when do many parents abdicate the responsibility of raising their children to the state, the television, tablets/phones and social media.
And he is getting all the best Kitty toys as well. Disney is becoming like my Pyewacket. Spoiled totally rotten. As my only fur child currently, Pye, has all the toys at his disposal. Unluckily my cat is not as well behaved as Disney. He is very demanding.

I have used a Paint-it Workshop with my second child and yes these places are crazy expensive. However, my teenager painted this huge dragon that was standing on and around a mountain with some village cabins along the windy road. The store kept the unfinished piece there for months as my kid would come in and spend 4-6 hours each time. Now each visit only about 1/2 the time was spent on the dragon and something else new and one day finishable. Fortunately we lived close enough that a couple times I just had my Hubby play taxi and let my teenager have a loner day to focus. But I think my kiddo logged @ 6 visits in 4 months? Then when the masterpiece was done we turned it in for baking and waited until we could pick it up. OMG BEAUTIFUL! Shading, highlights, pearlescent accents, individual scales in repeating multicolor patterns, That was 2015 I believe. It's still in great shape but yes it's kept away from my Maine Coon Cats!!
I loved the "help Me" story with the talking parrot. Just great. Thank you. Of course, I love all your stories. I used to have a parrot that I raised from a hatchling (he looked like the character Alf before he got his feathers so I named him Alfie. He died from pneumonia, thanks to our drafty old house. I still miss him!) Keep up the exceptional stories.
The child they did fine was screaming for his Mom when the cops arrested OP. Didn't they consider talking to the kid on scene and asking the questions? They should have searched the semi for another child as well. Once you seperate the child from mom, will the people thay take kid to know what kid is talking about when kid says, "My mom is that white lady you almost shot. I want her back!" What if the kid actually said that and pulled a stupid prank. I believe the cops did everything right by detaining OP but they should have taken kid to a seperate area out of sight of mother and talked to kid on the scene. Call in a specialist or something. They could have cleared up the confusion by just asking the kid for the story. BTW, let's assume the kid was Mexican with a Mexican parent, Black with a Black parent, White with a White parent, Asian with Asian parent, (insert any racially matching parent child here), etc. Would the cops have believed the parent and investigated further the source of "Help me Help me" before driving away with the kid? All that incident did was teach the kid to not trust cops.
OP in the first story - somehow, I think he could be making way more money per acre if he just rented out his land, maybe built some recreational stuff, etc. There seems to be a big enough city nearby that this might be a very profitable operation... A cousin of mine recently bought a farm (no idea how big, not that much), planning on setting up a facility to educate people (especially children) on the treatment of animals, possibly also an airbnb with a couple of rooms... I think what she's doing is fairly unique here in Germany.
I'll never understand why people tell such unnecessarily windy stories and then toss in terms most of us have no comprehension of! I guess a CAG is a parrot, but I didn't know til the last line!!
Last Story: I don’t feel bad about the OPs “uncomfortable moving situation” since she did it to herself. A single mom with a kid and doesn’t need to have 6 PETS. Plus the ‘freedom’ from another man in her life admirer her ex passed away?! Definitely NOT wife material. Sucks about the cop situation though. Police have a job/duty to investigate in any/all situations to get to the truth. But they just didn’t do that with her, with no evidence to support their preconceptions. Police are human too and make mistakes; I wouldn’t just forgive and forget though since they tried taking the kid away too. Lawsuit!
Brilliant as ever, well nearly. Having HOA withdrawal, they're the most ridiculous stories,.... just!? I enjoy your stories! 😁👍 The XJR got stolen last night...... 😥
@@RipeStories Bless ya, I appreciate your kind words, just a little gutted. Enclosed small back garden 6ft fence rear garden, have no idea how they got it ,😡
I can only say that there's more opportunities to make money off a stolen motor bike in the UK/ western countries. We both know that if their wasn't the demand, this type of crime wouldn't happen! 🤬🤬 How the hell they lifted my xjr over a 6fft fence is beyond me??????? 🤷🤷🤷
Years ago my sister and brother-in-law bought a parakeet from a breeder. On the long drive home, the car is very quiet when out of nowhere they hear," Let me out of here! ", coming from the bird's box. That was probably the last time he was that quiet.
I never assume ignorance when people are being full on racist pieces of shit... ESPECIALLY when cops are doing it... they have to be specifically educated on that shit and being a cop is practically education on that shit in of itself.
I myself had a malicious compliance moment, at my old workplace one of my former supervisors was a real tool, she went as far as to tell me not to answer the phones or touch the registers for ANY reason whatsoever, so when she was swamped and the only one working the returns desk and note I was the door greeter during this, she asked me to help her out, my shift ended 5 minutes prior to when she asked, so I repeated to her exactly what she told me earlier that day and left her to it.
In the early days of my mom having a parrot, we were living in Colorado, and she put the bird in his cage on the front porch. Bird started screaming help and all sounding like a child. Neighbor a couple doors down comes running out of her house, calling for her child, thinking he had been hurt. The parrot just starts laughing.
Could you please send prayers, healing vibes or get well wishes to Loki? He was really wobbly and fell trying to jump on top of a chest of drawers he usually has no problem with. Hubby and I are just back from the emergency vet where they have kept Loki in for the night so he can see a neurologist tomorrow. I’m so worried about him. Thanks.
Hey Mark, in the story about the trucker, he makes mention that the city “is famous for a bottled liquor “,not that the city is named after the drink or vice versa. So maybe OP meant the drink was Jack Daniel’s or Southern Comfort, something like that, though I honestly don’t think it would/could be Southern Comfort, at least from the description of the weather conditions!!!! Whatever, I would say that you would be able to work out where and the name of the town through this.
Weston, MO (McCormick Distillery/Whiskey) came to my mind. She still had 4 days of traveling to get to her destination, so that sounded about right to me. However, it's not "famous," so my next thought would be St. Louis, MO.
🍓☕🍫🍊🍶 Loving the Disney pram footage. Well spotted on the "On the Road" style of writing. Most northern or mountain areas have just two seasons -- snow removal and road repair. (Some people say road removal and snow repair. Minnesotans say snow removal and mosquito breeding.)
I loved the parrot story. When I was a teenager, I was given a parakeet. I named him Jeepers. We went to see some friends of hours several hours away. So we had Jeepers in his cage in the car. It was a hot summer day and we had the windows down. We were at a stop light and was about to start up to go thru as it turned green. All of a sudden Jeepers very loudly said,” Dirty Buzzard”! The guy in the next lane over heard it and glared at my dad. He told me to,” Shut that Damm bird up”! Needless to say I still laugh when I remember it to this day. Love your Disney videos. Oh that saying was Jeepers favorite word. When he was taking a nap in the afternoons he would recite everything he knew. Dirty was his favorite word.**************😂
I remember a case that happened in my office (the regional sales office of a multinational firm). Office hours were 9:30 am to 5:30 pm. Month end sales periods were extremely busy and hectic. It was normal that in the evening the workers worked 30 minutes/ 45 minutes or 1 hour past closing time just to keep the office running smoothly. Managers were extremely thankful as they too put in overtime (without extra pay). Therefore if sometimes someone wanted half a day off, he was allowed this without clocking his absence from office. One day a diligent worker… extremely hard working, extremely intelligent and efficient had to take his mother to see a doctor in the morning, so he informed the office that he would be late. He arrived at the office one hour late (around 10:30 am). His senior was a supervisor who had recently been promoted to supervisor level, and was out to impress the management of his efficiency. He gave a tongue lashing to the worker, and said that if he wished to take his mother to hospital, he should have taken a day or half a day off. The worker didn’t argue, signed his first half of the day leave, and immediately walked out and spent the balance time till 12:30 (time when first half is officially over and lunch hour begins) in a park, sunning… as the weather was cold. When he reached the office, the supervisor asked him where had he been as so much work was pending, it was month end and he should have got to work immediately when he came in at 10:30. The worker pointed out that he had taken first half of the day off, and reporting time was 12:30. The supervisor had no reply to that. But till 12:30 that supervisor had to face it lot of wrath from the meeting room for absence of reports etc. Come evening, the moment the clock touched 5:29, the worker closed his files, logged out of his computer, (at 5:30 pm), gathered his personal things, and informed the supervisor that he was going. The supervisor ranted about the amount of work pending and the reports the board room was waiting for. Worker says that “that’s not my lookout”, that “the official closing time was 5:30 pm”, and walked off. You can imagine the shit that hit the fan when the board room learnt that the reports that were to arrive through that worker would now only be available the next day. The branch manager and area manager got an explanation from the supervisor, then asked him to go out of the meeting room for some time, and then contacted the worker on his mobile, and got his side of the story. After this, the BM came down hard on the supervisor. He told the supervisor not to be a smart-ass if he wanted to remain a supervisor. That there was a difference between efficiency and being over-smart, that the whole office worked with a feeling of mutual cooperation, and that in future he should avoid spoiling the office atmosphere, and not to antagonise anybody unnecessarily. That was the last time that supervisor tried to be bossy or overbearing. 😊
It feels like something that could only happen in fiction, but people have actually used excuses like that in court. Makes you wonder how some people manage to breathe, let alone anything else.
I think OP was talking about Lexington Kentucky, home of the Jack Daniels distillery.😘😘💖💖⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ETA: Jack Daniels is whiskey. In case you didn't know👍💖⭐⭐
Hello, Ripe. Love all your stories. I believe the cops in the last story (nurse driving semi) did act appropriately. Until the parrot was revealed they had to presume that a child was in danger. Kudos to the cashier and the cops, and kudos to the OP for keeping her head and NOT being stupid with the cops. Glad everything worked out. BTW, I'm guessing the city was Lynchburg, Tennessee, which is famous for making Jack Daniels whiskey.
I don't think anyone believes the cops acted inappropriately EXCEPT when it was ASSUMED the child couldn't be HERS because he was BLACK and she was WHITE!!
I disagree Innocent ppl could have been harmed because of their lack of thinking skills op should be able to proof it was her son but they were too racist to understand
I'm guessing that the last story is about a Congo African Grey. Being prior military, I was trying to figure out what a Combat Air Group had to do with getting the OP in trouble. LOL
Every case the Karen cop did needs to be completely reevaluated! If she's like that with her coworkers, then God knows how terrible a job she did on them! Probably arrested, etc, the exactly wrong people! Of course, Karen's are bullies, and so are most cops!
It's nice and warm today here in Iowa for a change. I'm glad I don't live out East! My cats will be thrilled to see the vet today for checkups and shots.

Hello Ripe! It boggles the mind the level of self-entitledness some people have. When I was a young man (20 something) my friends owned a farm, and I was one of the guys who would work on the farm from time to time. This farm was 17 acres on one side of a semi-main road, and about 25 acres on the other side. The whole farm was surrounded by land which was either developed, or was in the process of being developed, and as new houses were built and then sold and occupied, new pesky neighbors increasingly became a problem. Now, I could go off on a tangent here about how the farm was there first, and the yuppies had no business building McMansions there, and the township was doing everything in their power as well as several illegal things in order to force the Indigenous landowners out so that they could destroy the farms and build more McMansions... But that's another story for another time. We had numerous incidents with yuppies trespassing. One kid asked the owner for permission to hunt rabbits with a BB rifle, and then proceeded to shoot the windows out of every vehicle that was parked in the fiield, and the old house, and probably shot at the sheep too, but we couldn't prove that. One woman repeatedly called the cops for noise complaints, and one of those times she actually came down the dirt driveway after the cops and was standing there yelling, "They have _animals_ down there!" (It's a _farm,_ lady.) She also said something about the "junk" cars and trucks scattered about (Again, it's a _farm._ ) before the cop kindly informed her that she was currently trespassing, at which she argued, claiming that it was a "public" road, (It wasn't, it was a _private_ dirt driveway clearly marked as such.) and she got arrested. One time I ran a car full of dudes out of there by firing over their heads and raining squirrel-shot on the roof of their car. I hope they shit their pants. Eventually, several years later, the tyrannical municipality "won," (by cheating and lying, no surprise there,) and my friends sold their farm to some scumbag developers. (Because poor American farmers don't have the resources to pay attorneys to fight big bully government, and big bully government makes up its own "rules" to screw the people however it sees fit.) Municipalities _want_ yuppies to build McMansions, because yuppies have money, and so they "justiry" raising taxes, thereby generating more tax revenue for them, ie: more stolen loot in the politicians' pockets. Someday their own built-up karma will come and bite them all on their asses.
It took me until the end to understand that a "CAG" was a freaking parrot. Because OP's a nurse I thought maybe it was something like a pager that they gave a custom sound to.
I had a coworker that drove home at night at 1 to 3 in the morning. Now he had a system that went on a back road and he past a certain intersection he would count three house and know in 100 ft to make a turn. SO hear he goes and count one, two , three, and then four. While his tired brain was trying to figure out how they could be four houses the road end and he does a duke of hazzard jump. WE thought he had been drinking but it turn out that between the time he left for work and the time he went home, some mover had place a new house on the road.
Jack Daniels Whiskey is made in Lynchburg, Tennessee USA. And that would be the town in the truck story. And Lynchburg is a dry town (cant sell alcohol), so the sell the bottles and give away the whiskey. LOL
I almost went to the exact same thing I heard the sound of a child crying I responded to it it turned out to be in front of a pet store and found out it was just a parrot imitating a child crying
The entitlement is a pre existing condition... whats new is all these Karen's not having the social skills that they need in order to get away with there antics anymore. Also if you give a phenomena a name more people will notice said phenomena.
My cat would scream a very human "Help!" when he was in the car with me. I was surprised I was never pulled over. He'd only scream it on the way to the vet but never heading home. He knew what he was doing.
Yeah, cats can be pretty devious when they want to be.

that’s the Million Dollar Question, ain’t it ?!?!?!
Question, shouldn't that make her worst then the murderers and rapists that she helped?
All because of her ego, probably.
You think rapists get punished? Also... When you listen to enough true crime you realise basically all unsolved cases are such because of cops not doing their jobs properly 🤷♀️

One must always think things through when teaching a parrot to talk. It could come back to bite you hard.
i happened to listen to an old video today and it's amazing how much your accent and your struggles with some words has changed since then.
Agreed haha
I'd have told her" the car now belongs to the fish, because I'm not giving anyone permission to get it out."
Contamination?
only reason not to do that is it could kill the fish, even with the short time it was in the lake. I like the thought though
If there was a way to get the chemicals out of the car without contaminating the pond or land, you bet I would do that without a court order.

Sucks about the cop situation though. Police have a job/duty to investigate in any/all situations to get to the truth. But they just didn’t do that with her, with no evidence to support their preconceptions. Police are human too and make mistakes; I wouldn’t just forgive and forget though since they tried taking the kid away too. Lawsuit!
💫 love your show!
Brilliant as ever, well nearly. Having HOA withdrawal, they're the most ridiculous stories,.... just!? I enjoy your stories! 😁👍
The XJR got stolen last night...... 😥
Wooooot. Where did you park it?
My condolences 😿
@@RipeStories Bless ya, I appreciate your kind words, just a little gutted. Enclosed small back garden 6ft fence rear garden, have no idea how they got it
,😡
@@FozzyZ28 Wow fk. I heard that in Western countries motorcycles are never safe. 😿
I can only say that there's more opportunities to make money off a stolen motor bike in the UK/ western countries. We both know that if their wasn't the demand, this type of crime wouldn't happen! 🤬🤬 How the hell they lifted my xjr over a 6fft fence is beyond me??????? 🤷🤷🤷
A Captain Dropbear repeat. She tells great stories.
♾🌟s and 😻🤗s for Ripe, JB and Disney!
You have a very soothing voice. Thank you❤🎉😊
Thank you Marsha! Some douchebag in school back then told me my voice is horrible. Guess whose laughing now 😈
Years ago my sister and brother-in-law bought a parakeet from a breeder. On the long drive home, the car is very quiet when out of nowhere they hear," Let me out of here! ", coming from the bird's box. That was probably the last time he was that quiet.
Great stories as usual Ripe, keep up the good work!!!!⭐🌟⭐🌟⭐🌟⭐🌟⭐🌟
I never assume ignorance when people are being full on racist pieces of shit... ESPECIALLY when cops are doing it... they have to be specifically educated on that shit and being a cop is practically education on that shit in of itself.
That would be Jack Daniels Whiskey made in Lynchburg Tennessee...
That last story reminds me of footage I saw of a parrot that sounded *exactly* like a crying child.
I myself had a malicious compliance moment, at my old workplace one of my former supervisors was a real tool, she went as far as to tell me not to answer the phones or touch the registers for ANY reason whatsoever, so when she was swamped and the only one working the returns desk and note I was the door greeter during this, she asked me to help her out, my shift ended 5 minutes prior to when she asked, so I repeated to her exactly what she told me earlier that day and left her to it.
In the early days of my mom having a parrot, we were living in Colorado, and she put the bird in his cage on the front porch. Bird started screaming help and all sounding like a child. Neighbor a couple doors down comes running out of her house, calling for her child, thinking he had been hurt. The parrot just starts laughing.
had a friend once who taught one of his birds to say "help me, im trapped in a bird!" that was the funniest thing ever
Could you please send prayers, healing vibes or get well wishes to Loki? He was really wobbly and fell trying to jump on top of a chest of drawers he usually has no problem with. Hubby and I are just back from the emergency vet where they have kept Loki in for the night so he can see a neurologist tomorrow. I’m so worried about him. Thanks.
My rescue kitty Queenie and I are sending you the best love we got. Hope your boy is going to be all right. 🖤📿
@@weezylone Thank you.
Hugs and prayers to Loki. Keep us updated please 😿
@@RipeStories Thank you. We’ll hopefully know more tomorrow morning and I’ll definitely let you know how he’s doing .
now that last story is funny that cop falling on his butte and almost weating himself like that I laugh at that one
Hmmm if the op was talking about whiskey/bourbon, the town is probably Lynchburg, Tennessee. They are famous for being the home of Jack Daniels.
The last story the beer would be Old Milwaukee Beer made in Milwaukee, Wisconsin
She mentioned a city famed for its HARD core LIQUOR. That rules out beer. Think Jack Daniel's, made in Lynchburg Tennessee.
True the story said hard core liquor but I can't think of any liquor with the same name and named after a USA city. So that's why I came up with beer.
The talking parrot story is too funny
Hey Mark, in the story about the trucker, he makes mention that the city “is famous for a bottled liquor “,not that the city is named after the drink or vice versa. So maybe OP meant the drink was Jack Daniel’s or Southern Comfort, something like that, though I honestly don’t think it would/could be Southern Comfort, at least from the description of the weather conditions!!!! Whatever, I would say that you would be able to work out where and the name of the town through this.
My first thought was Pendleton, OR lol
Bourbon County, Kentucky?
Figured Louisville of somewhere in Kentucky. Whole state is famous from n
Kentucky Bourbon Whiskey.
I was thinking of Lynchburg, Tennessee, the home of Jack Daniel's whiskey.
Weston, MO (McCormick Distillery/Whiskey) came to my mind. She still had 4 days of traveling to get to her destination, so that sounded about right to me. However, it's not "famous," so my next thought would be St. Louis, MO.
Disnii out for a walk in a stroller!!! @Ripe, how did she like it? ❤️
She likes it a lot.
Great stories, thanks!!🥰
Awesome stories and AWESOME ending
Lynchburg Tennessee is famous for Jack Daniel's whiskey
🍓☕🍫🍊🍶
Loving the Disney pram footage.
Well spotted on the "On the Road" style of writing. Most northern or mountain areas have just two seasons -- snow removal and road repair. (Some people say road removal and snow repair. Minnesotans say snow removal and mosquito breeding.)
Glad you included a shot of your cat in the baby buggy.
I loved the parrot story. When I was a teenager, I was given a parakeet. I named him Jeepers. We went to see some friends of hours several hours away. So we had Jeepers in his cage in the car. It was a hot summer day and we had the windows down. We were at a stop light and was about to start up to go thru as it turned green. All of a sudden Jeepers very loudly said,” Dirty Buzzard”! The guy in the next lane over heard it and glared at my dad. He told me to,” Shut that Damm bird up”! Needless to say I still laugh when I remember it to this day. Love your Disney videos. Oh that saying was Jeepers favorite word. When he was taking a nap in the afternoons he would recite everything he knew. Dirty was his favorite word.**************😂
That last story had me when the cats were mentioned. I have two polydactyl cats..... 22 toe beans each.
I love the footage of you and your cat taking a walk
OMG Disney in a carriage, just chefs kiss.
I remember a case that happened in my office (the regional sales office of a multinational firm). Office hours were 9:30 am to 5:30 pm. Month end sales periods were extremely busy and hectic. It was normal that in the evening the workers worked 30 minutes/ 45 minutes or 1 hour past closing time just to keep the office running smoothly. Managers were extremely thankful as they too put in overtime (without extra pay). Therefore if sometimes someone wanted half a day off, he was allowed this without clocking his absence from office.
One day a diligent worker… extremely hard working, extremely intelligent and efficient had to take his mother to see a doctor in the morning, so he informed the office that he would be late. He arrived at the office one hour late (around 10:30 am). His senior was a supervisor who had recently been promoted to supervisor level, and was out to impress the management of his efficiency. He gave a tongue lashing to the worker, and said that if he wished to take his mother to hospital, he should have taken a day or half a day off. The worker didn’t argue, signed his first half of the day leave, and immediately walked out and spent the balance time till 12:30 (time when first half is officially over and lunch hour begins) in a park, sunning… as the weather was cold. When he reached the office, the supervisor asked him where had he been as so much work was pending, it was month end and he should have got to work immediately when he came in at 10:30. The worker pointed out that he had taken first half of the day off, and reporting time was 12:30. The supervisor had no reply to that. But till 12:30 that supervisor had to face it lot of wrath from the meeting room for absence of reports etc.
Come evening, the moment the clock touched 5:29, the worker closed his files, logged out of his computer, (at 5:30 pm), gathered his personal things, and informed the supervisor that he was going. The supervisor ranted about the amount of work pending and the reports the board room was waiting for. Worker says that “that’s not my lookout”, that “the official closing time was 5:30 pm”, and walked off.
You can imagine the shit that hit the fan when the board room learnt that the reports that were to arrive through that worker would now only be available the next day. The branch manager and area manager got an explanation from the supervisor, then asked him to go out of the meeting room for some time, and then contacted the worker on his mobile, and got his side of the story. After this, the BM came down hard on the supervisor. He told the supervisor not to be a smart-ass if he wanted to remain a supervisor. That there was a difference between efficiency and being over-smart, that the whole office worked with a feeling of mutual cooperation, and that in future he should avoid spoiling the office atmosphere, and not to antagonise anybody unnecessarily.
That was the last time that supervisor tried to be bossy or overbearing. 😊
At first I saw the stroller and was like "okay, blah blah-- IS THAT A FUCKING CAT LESGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!"
Hey ripe like your stories
Great read, today. Thank you. ♥️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Karen: The lake came out of no where.
Lakes, telephone poles, and trees--the attack ninjas of the natural world.
It feels like something that could only happen in fiction, but people have actually used excuses like that in court. Makes you wonder how some people manage to breathe, let alone anything else.
Well done!
I think OP was talking about Lexington Kentucky, home of the Jack Daniels distillery.😘😘💖💖⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
ETA: Jack Daniels is whiskey. In case you didn't know👍💖⭐⭐
Love the last trucking tail.
the ultimate way to stop a karen say "I am the manager"
Hello, Ripe. Love all your stories. I believe the cops in the last story (nurse driving semi) did act appropriately. Until the parrot was revealed they had to presume that a child was in danger. Kudos to the cashier and the cops, and kudos to the OP for keeping her head and NOT being stupid with the cops. Glad everything worked out. BTW, I'm guessing the city was Lynchburg, Tennessee, which is famous for making Jack Daniels whiskey.
I don't think anyone believes the cops acted inappropriately EXCEPT when it was ASSUMED the child couldn't be HERS because he was BLACK and she was WHITE!!
I disagree
Innocent ppl could have been harmed because of their lack of thinking skills
op should be able to proof it was her son but they were too racist to understand
I'm guessing that the last story is about a Congo African Grey. Being prior military, I was trying to figure out what a Combat Air Group had to do with getting the OP in trouble. LOL
I had the same problem. Even a Google search didn't clarify.
Every case the Karen cop did needs to be completely reevaluated! If she's like that with her coworkers, then God knows how terrible a job she did on them! Probably arrested, etc, the exactly wrong people! Of course, Karen's are bullies, and so are most cops!
Oh. The kitty in the carriage is adorable! Give her kisses for me?
Will do! 😻
Yay Herr Ripe and Disney floof. Chilly and damp today so going out as little as possible. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
It's nice and warm today here in Iowa for a change. I'm glad I don't live out East! My cats will be thrilled to see the vet today for checkups and shots.
@@randystegemann9990 My nephew lives in Arizona but I still don't plan to ever visit the USA again. Sticking with civilised countries. I know there are many good Americans but as a percentage I'd guess a lot less than good Iranians or Russians. I do have an invite to visit a repair base in Puerto Rico and might well do that. I did used to visit California in our winter.
@@robertsmelt6638 Hard to argue with that civilised comment, given politics here.

Hi Ripe. These stories were great and your narration was top notch as usual. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Looking forward to the next stories. Take care.

P.S. Yeaaaaaa! You got Disney a pet stroller. I bet you both love it!

Polydactyl cats! Cool. I've had a few too.
Great stories 😂
Oh, Disney in a stroller. ❤️
Hello Ripe! It boggles the mind the level of self-entitledness some people have. When I was a young man (20 something) my friends owned a farm, and I was one of the guys who would work on the farm from time to time. This farm was 17 acres on one side of a semi-main road, and about 25 acres on the other side. The whole farm was surrounded by land which was either developed, or was in the process of being developed, and as new houses were built and then sold and occupied, new pesky neighbors increasingly became a problem. Now, I could go off on a tangent here about how the farm was there first, and the yuppies had no business building McMansions there, and the township was doing everything in their power as well as several illegal things in order to force the Indigenous landowners out so that they could destroy the farms and build more McMansions... But that's another story for another time. We had numerous incidents with yuppies trespassing. One kid asked the owner for permission to hunt rabbits with a BB rifle, and then proceeded to shoot the windows out of every vehicle that was parked in the fiield, and the old house, and probably shot at the sheep too, but we couldn't prove that. One woman repeatedly called the cops for noise complaints, and one of those times she actually came down the dirt driveway after the cops and was standing there yelling, "They have _animals_ down there!" (It's a _farm,_ lady.) She also said something about the "junk" cars and trucks scattered about (Again, it's a _farm._ ) before the cop kindly informed her that she was currently trespassing, at which she argued, claiming that it was a "public" road, (It wasn't, it was a _private_ dirt driveway clearly marked as such.) and she got arrested. One time I ran a car full of dudes out of there by firing over their heads and raining squirrel-shot on the roof of their car. I hope they shit their pants. Eventually, several years later, the tyrannical municipality "won," (by cheating and lying, no surprise there,) and my friends sold their farm to some scumbag developers. (Because poor American farmers don't have the resources to pay attorneys to fight big bully government, and big bully government makes up its own "rules" to screw the people however it sees fit.) Municipalities _want_ yuppies to build McMansions, because yuppies have money, and so they "justiry" raising taxes, thereby generating more tax revenue for them, ie: more stolen loot in the politicians' pockets. Someday their own built-up karma will come and bite them all on their asses.
The hard liquor city mentioned in the last story was maybe Lynchburg, Tennessee, where Jack Daniels whiskey is made?
🇺🇦🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🇺🇦🇵🇱 That last story could so easily have been tragic! A talking bird almost gets his owner arrested!
She was arrested. Deprived of her freedom, her son kidnapped by the state, her rights violated.
I really enjoyed your video, and the story of the bird calling help me was so funny.
It took me until the end to understand that a "CAG" was a freaking parrot. Because OP's a nurse I thought maybe it was something like a pager that they gave a custom sound to.
I love your accent! You sound like my German Grandmother! 💋❤❤❤
I had a coworker that drove home at night at 1 to 3 in the morning. Now he had a system that went on a back road and he past a certain intersection he would count three house and know in 100 ft to make a turn. SO hear he goes and count one, two , three, and then four. While his tired brain was trying to figure out how they could be four houses the road end and he does a duke of hazzard jump. WE thought he had been drinking but it turn out that between the time he left for work and the time he went home, some mover had place a new house on the road.
the liquer is Jack Daniels and the city is Lynchburg, Tenessee.
Jack Daniels Whiskey is made in Lynchburg, Tennessee USA. And that would be the town in the truck story. And Lynchburg is a dry town (cant sell alcohol), so the sell the bottles and give away the whiskey. LOL
Love your work, keep up the good work. Also, love the cat
I love you stories! I cancelled a lot of my others, but I wanted to keep your vlog! (Love the cat!)
I almost went to the exact same thing I heard the sound of a child crying I responded to it it turned out to be in front of a pet store and found out it was just a parrot imitating a child crying
This one had me in tears 🤪
She is referring to Lynchburg TN.
Really enjoyed the videno
Glad to hear it!
Moving truck: had similar issues when I moved from Iowa with the truck breaking down.
myocardial infarction is the fancy way of saying heart attack
The entitlement is a pre existing condition... whats new is all these Karen's not having the social skills that they need in order to get away with there antics anymore. Also if you give a phenomena a name more people will notice said phenomena.
I'm thinking the town mentioned in that last story, known for it's whiskey is probably Lynchburg, Tennessee.
Disney sure seems to like her stroller ! LOL!
