I do find myself thinking about the bears vs men conversation that was happening not too long ago.

Very confusing development.

Wherein @enipla’s wife came out better than the bear did.

Lesson for today: do NOT f\*\*\* with @enipla’s wife.

One time a bear screwed up the center console of my wifes car. Just wouldn’t lock down when you closed it. No biggy.

They are very polite, except they don’t close the doors when they leave. 😀

You don’t live near [Tucker Carlson](https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/nov/01/tucker-carlson-demon-attack), do you? The bear might have gone to his house too.

At least it wasn’t this bear:

Although @enipla’s wife would _really_ have done a number on that bear.

No, he’s about 2000 miles away.

😀 We both carry bear spray when hiking, but fall is over and winter is here, so bears should be cozying up in their dens.

Spring and fall is the worst time.

I wonder if Tucker was with a different kind of ummm bear.

Or even this “bear.” Poor bears, getting framed for so many crimes!

That’d be an antarctic bear, or an ‘away from the bears’ bear.

The original bear we were talking about **[was](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/omnibus-evil-mfers-in-the-news-thread/983496/1990)** that bear.

Also, so disappointed that web site isn’t _Lowering the Bear_.

A Spokane couple have plead guilty to murdering their daughter’s teenage boyfriend (who suffered from cerebral palsy), after falsely claiming he had sold their daughter into prostitution in an attempt to justify the murder.

But him being autistic and having cerebral palsy adds nothing to the story. Why did they include that detail?

Because that was probably their real motive. “No way our daughter is going to date a freak!”.

That was my reaction. Where’s the daughter? With a side order of “Judging by the pix, those parents are real winners.”

That’s something that I will never fathom: you commit an illegal act - no matter how justified you feel you may be - and then go brag about it to someone later. The mom in that story told a coworker about it something like 2 years later.

I’ve done a lot of bad things (mostly immoral, but broken the law a few times, though not anywhere near to what they did. Mine were mostly drug or traffic incidents), and I don’t feel the need to brag about getting away with it to someone who, in all likelihood, would do the right thing and report it to the authorities.
