Let's see, this lady who watched my kids one summer took me to court for owing her $60.00 for daycare. I had refused to pay because her own kids ruined some of my daughter's toys that were worth more than that... toys that SHE asked me to bring over for them in the first place. She and the judge both went to the same church (I was told later on when it was too late for me to back down), so in the end I had to pay $90.00. And I learned a good lesson about small towns too. It's not who you owe, but who you know. So it's too bad you weren't like, attending their church, LOL. That sounds like small town bullshit? and a lot of pressure for you at that age, for sure.

My old landlords brought legal action against me when I got evicted, because they said I owed them money. Which was bullllshit. But they were hardcore Mormon and I had let a buddy of mine paint a pentogram on the basement wall in drippy red spray paint. The eviction letter I got was the BEST EVER though. It listed 5 reasons... (I had a party the night before) 1. Drug paraphernalia (a hookah!) 2. Indecent exposure (a buddy of mine mooned us and the landlord happened to be walking by) 3. Excessive noise (can't argue with that one) 4. Destruction of property (we were gonna clean up the beer bottles the next morning, honest!) 5. Language use (Since when did swearing loudly become illegal?) I was so proud of that eviction letter I framed it. This story’s getting good now!

We then went to a Pizza Buffet where I got the bright idea of throwing a fork at an old lady. She dropped the charges but I still had to go do community service.

Clearly you've learned your lesson since. My ex-boyfriend's ex-girlfriend threatened to sue me because she said I had some of HER things in my house!? The only thing of hers I had was him. Whoops.

Eventually the building got sold and everyone except 3 people were extremely happy with the deal we got.
