Stuff that happened to you that doesnt deserve a thread

We have a more liberal policy.
I'll see what I can do to get ecigssa marked as a non tobacco site.

I think it's a generic category and it can be overcome seeing that most organisations use the same firewalls.

What conspiracy is this?

It should be lifestyle.
 
I can’t get to ECIGSSA on my normal computer, but can on our staff internet as my tablet is registered, but cannot access recipies or most vape shops. Go figure.

WiFi probably runs on a different policy to the normal machine connected to the LAN.
 
Had my first meal at Hooters today while visiting the annual SOS Reptile Expo
 
I dont know if I should describe this incident as funny, surprising, honestly don't know the right word for it.
I was at a local engen garage(Kliffontein road) getting new tires and alignment done for my car. I am inquisitive so I was standing by, watching the mechanics work on my car.
I heard a lady scream so I rushed out, saw a man running, then another man getting hold of him, struggling to keep him from running away and all the bystanders were just watching. Now its a busy garage, I guess there were around 15 customers, at least 3 security guards, and several more attendants. No one came forward to help the guy to make sure the guy doesn't run away. My first instinct was to run towards the thief, because I am from Mumbai and we beat up snatchers but quickly realized that no one else is going for it, so just stood where I was.

A few minutes later I learned that the guy running(let's call him the thief) snatched a phone from a guy on the road, the lady tried to catch the thief but he slipped so when she screamed the third guy managed to get hold of him. Within minutes the police arrive on the scene and grab the thief.
The phone is returned and this is the exact words used by the owner of the phone " I don't want to press any charges, I have to be somewhere and it's really important" I mean WTF was wrong with that guy??
The thief is allowed to go with a warning "do not do it again" from the lady who of course cannot do anything more because the victim doesn't want to press charges. The thief walks without even a slap on the wrist or a spank !!

@Faiyaz Cheulkar Quite honestly, if I were in a hurry I would also not bother to press charges. Waste my time on something that will get to court in 3 years time? No ways. How did the woman try to stop him, by the way?

I think I saw the lady grab him by his shirt but the thief managed to run but the other guy caught him. It all happened too fast so it's a little blurry in my head.
But she definitely looked like someone I would never mess with .
I understand not pressing charges, but letting the thief walk is a mistake. Today it's a phone, tomorrow he is breaking into someone's house.
