I think that would just suck for the guy out in the snow with no shoes and all.

Re: Myth or true?

my neighborhood has all underground power lines. so does that mean if i see shoes sitting on the sidewalk then someone is selling drugs from that spot?

I was just wondering because a town over has two spots where there are sneeks on the powerlines on the same street. I live in a fairly rich area where the houses and neighborhood in the surrounding towns makes you think that this would be the last place to find a drug spot.

Would the police know about this? If not, I would let them know and to keep an eye out. (I don't want to buy drugs myself, I just hate those who traffic it and sell it, to those who wish to waste their lives away on them).


Headline: "Rich kid can't come to grips with reality"

I'm sure there's some sort of prescription that can solve your problem.


This is the funniest thread I have seen in a while.

Re: Myth or true?

Rich people don't do drugs, they amuse themselves by throwing shoes onto powerlines.

Neat.

I googled it, and found out the same things people have been saying on here. I guess the only REAL way to tell would be to go ask someone throwing shoes on the powerline in different areas.

Another funny thing I found is the same smartass replies on different forums tot he same question
