An observation:

If it wasn't for the 2 or so actual people behind the few active screen names constantly regurgitating copyrighted content without consent, mindless political memes, and racist tropes, this place - and the other - would be complete ghost towns.

This is so damn funny:

She is visiting from out of town and borrowing her mom's car.  She went some store and came out and got into someone else's car, just like her mom's, who left the key fob in it.  So she was able to start the car and drive it away, despite it being the wrong car.  She couldn't lock the doors, so she was buying batteries for her mom's key fob, thinking that's why her mom's fob would lock the doors on the wrong car she was in.  That's when the police showed up, lmao.

Was he the A's ball boy and some of the players invested in him?

I had no idea:

"Before becoming a global music icon, MC Hammer (born Stanley Kirk Burrell) worked as an 11-year-old batboy and clubhouse assistant for the Oakland Athletics from 1973 to 1980. Team owner Charlie Finley hired him after spotting the energetic kid breakdancing and selling baseballs in the stadium parking lot.The A's players affectionately nicknamed him "Little Hammer" (later just "Hammer") because of his striking physical resemblance to baseball legend Hank "Hammerin' Hank" Aaron. Beyond just handling bats, the charismatic teen became Finley's close associate, and would spend games in the owner's luxury box calling into Chicago to relay live play-by-play."

That's how he got his name.  That's cool.

Very nice but there is no excuse for there being a need for this
