Window Washers Reveal the Strangest Things They’ve Seen Through the Glass

Washing windows have a high-risk job. It’s dangerous enough to get really high up on a building and scrub away, but they’ve also gotta look at all the weird stuff that’s going on behind those windows.

These stories from AskReddit users that also happen to be professional window washers DO NOT DISAPPOINT. Take a look at these tales.

1. Sad and lonely

“The weirdest thing to me is a mansion with round the clock staff inside, they even wear uniforms. It’s just this one rich dude his wife and their two kids. I’m not allowed inside, but I can see the wife. She’s surrounded by the serving staff, but she never talks to any of them, and they don’t talk to her. She seems really sad and lonely.”

2. Nude

“I washed windows once, still not sure if it was on purpose but was washing skylights on a regular house and the daughter walks into the bathroom naked and starts checking herself out. She was the same age as me, like 20 at the time. I didn’t know what to do so I apologized. Her parents heard and made fun of her the rest of the day, I’ve never seen someone turn so red as when her dad said “so you were giving the cleaning boy a show?” They were getting ready to sell the house and I was there for another 8 hours cleaning.”

3. Sounds like fun

“I only did the job for about 8 or 9 months but saw two unexpected things.

Got to the top of the ladder and saw a guy I know is a priest enjoying some porn. I scurried back down the ladder hoping he would hear me and then slowly went back up. He obviously had heard me because when I got back to the window he was standing up reading a bible.

The other time I got to the top of the ladder and saw a woman in her 80’s sitting on her bed completely naked. I was sure she saw me so I gave her a few minutes before going back to the window. When I get there she’s sitting in exactly the same place, still naked, smiling at me. I got a job in an office soon after.”

4. Just like a movie

“My (maternal) grandfather was a window washer in the 1930s. He saw my (eventual) grandmother on the other side of the glass.”

5. Wasps!

“I was volunteering for the first time at this small place a while ago because high school, and they gave me a simple job. A bottle of spray and a towel to wipe down the windows.

So I did it obediently, and I was looking through the window. I could see across the road there was a sidewalk and some apartments. On the sidewalk, there’s some trees, not too small or big, just your average tree. I could see this lump dangling on a branch, and I immediately recognized it as a wasp nest because my neighborhood had a lot.

I remember thinking to myself, “Man I feel bad for whoever has to take care of that.” (For some reason I thought people like beekeepers didn’t exist) Lo and behold, a white middle aged woman, kinda chubby, probably in her 50s, is watching from a reasonable distance. She goes back into her apartment, and comes back out with a metal baseball bat. I stopped wiping the windows and watched with horror thinking, “Uh oh.” I started heading towards the door to yell stop, but I wasn’t quick enough.

She runs up to the nest and takes a good hit at it. And I guess she tried to run away from the nest, but sprinting is a bit hard in your 50s, and her weight didn’t help. Yikes. She got stung and she kinda fell on the ground in the process. Wasp stings hurt like hell. I told the store manager what happened and she called an ambulance. She got whisked off, and that’s the end of the story.”

6. Watering the plants

“My boyfriend has done a lot of high rise window washing. As he was doing his thing, a man walked into an office, unzipped his pants, proceeded to pee into a potted plant, and walked back out as soon as he was done doing his business. The man was never aware that he had an audience.”

7. Brothel

“I used to wash the windows of a house that turned out to be a brothel.

Should’ve known really the signs were all there. Different men answering the door, all beds were king size with silky sheets Showers in every room Etc…”

8. Okay….

“A piglet. As in, a baby pig, not the Winnie the Pooh character.

No idea why he got an office on the 10th floor.”

9. Back off, lady

“The strangest was a woman who watched me to my work from the other side, pointing at all the streaks and spots as if I were missing it all. Her windows were filthy because we’d had a rain storm followed by a dust storm (only in Texas). I knew it’d take more than one pass to get it all, so I started with the big squeegee to get the bulk of the dirt off before going at it again with the smaller one that doesn’t leave streaks.

She was losing her mind tapping during the first pass, tapping on the parts I was going to go over again. She pointed out the wet streaks that dry up almost immediately into nothing but clean window. She pointed at the spots I had to really get at when the squeegee didn’t get them. She pointed at me a lot, and I’m not sure what that was about.

As part of the job, I also remove any spider webs or hornet/wasp’s nests I see. Wasps/Hornets aren’t really a big deal if you get the jump on them. You reach up, grab their mud nest, and just smash it in your hands before they get out to bite you. This lady kept freaking out and making barfing faces whenever I did it. She looked completely disgusted. She didn’t ask me to stop cleaning her windows though, so I don’t know what she expected me to do. Not do what I was contracted to do?

The lady clearly thought I was a neanderthal. She later complained that she had to do all the work, pointing it all out to me. I tried to explain that I could sit in a bus and point out the route, but that doesn’t change the work the bus driver is doing. She complained that I couldn’t be that smart because I was a window washer and window washers are lazy. I explained it was one of two jobs I was working while taking a full course load at the university.”

10. Some real weirdos out there

“I used to be a professional window washer for mostly very high end houses. Worked on a few celebrity homes but I really don’t have any interesting stories from them. Here are the top 3 weird places I remember working.

The first place, wasn’t a single occurrence but a particular client. To picture this guy, imagine a more boring version of Steve Carrol Carell.

This dude had a larger house. Probably somewhere in the neighborhood of 3500 square feet. He had the Rolladen shutters around his entire house. For those who don’t know what they are, imaging metalish window covers that roll down over the whole window. Something you’d see in a zombie apocalypse movie. That in and of itself wasn’t that weird. But I still remember the first time those shutters went up. The guy had zero furniture. None. Nada. Nothing except for a very basic queen sized bed with white sheets in one of the bedrooms. The guy would follow us around from the inside and leer at us the entire time we’d be cleaning the windows.

Then when we’d do the inside, he’d follow us around with a roll of paper towels and dab up any minor droplet that would hit the ground. Keep in mind, we always used drop cloths when we cleaned inside glass. We were used to working in the nicest of nice homes so we were always very careful to not get water on the floor. Wasn’t good enough for this dude. He’d literally stand 2 feet behind you with the roll and just stare.

Next place that I can remember that was weird was this gay couple’s house. They were super friendly and perfectly normal for the most part. The inside of their house however, was unsettling.

All of the walls were painted either blood red or black. Pagan and Satanic looking statues, paintings and decorations everywhere. It was unsettling to say the least. The last was this weird guy with insanely curly hair who had like fifty life sized statues of children on his property. Dude lived alone. My co-worker joked he was an angry old mage who would turn children to stone for walking on his lawn when they weren’t supposed too.”

11. Oh my!

“Wash windows for a hospital certain operating rooms have windows… the doctors just waved at me as I could see this persons midsection cut open on a table. I almost threw up down the side of the building.”

12. From the other side

“So I was on the unfortunate side of the incident. Went to go #2, the window is right behind the toilet.. you can see where this is going. I turned back to see a guy looming over me through thinly veiled curtains. I immediately flushed and farted out of there. I’m sure he will never forget that.”

13. Unpleasant

“Finally a question I can answer. We were cleaning a fairly tall building 12 stories iirc adjacent to an equally tall government office building. This office building had several bedrooms on the top level, which we could see from the roof but certainly not from the ground. From where we were standing this bedroom was about ten meters away. As we’re setting up a naked dude jumps onto his bed with an ipad and starts rubbing one out furiously. Facing us.

Not weird necessarily but certainly unpleasant.”

14. What are the chances?

“On my first job as a window washer I went to this house and started washing windows and saw my ex-girlfriend having sex with her new boyfriend. And then she came outside and started yelling at me that “this is insane” and “window washers don’t come to people’s houses at 3 in the morning” and “I’m pretty sure they carry more than just Great Value Window Cleaner and a roll of paper towels.”

I hate when people can’t be professional and mature when it comes to difficult jobs.”

15. Dress shoes

“Just a regular window cleaner here. I was once going up my ladders to clean a bedroom window on the second floor at around 8am. As i got to the top of the ladder i was confronted with a couple going for it at an angle which indicated that he was, shall we say, taking the road less travelled.

Fair enough, lots of window cleaners see people naked or doing it, but this dude, for some reason, at 8am, was wearing a pair of socks and dress shoes. Apart from that they were both butt naked.

Now i can only assume that they were too deeply engrossed to have heard the clatter of my ladders against the window sill, but i got done with that window real quick and just about slid down the ladder.”

Students Share the Most Insane Teacher Meltdowns They’ve Ever Witnessed

As if teachers jobs weren’t hard enough, some students make it their personal goal to drive their educators to the brink of insanity. I certainly knew a few teachers in my youth who went off on the class a time or two.

But I don’t think any of them snapped like the teachers in these AskReddit stories.

1. Never saw her again

“Lost it totally in the middle of 4th grade class. Stood in the middle of the room clapping her hands and chanting “I before E except after C!” and would not stop. The music teacher finally came in and led her away, and we never saw her again.”

2. Vietnam vet

“This was years ago, but in high school shop class. Teacher was a grizzly ole Vietnam vet who didn’t take s*** from anyone. For a clearer picture, he liked to start the first day of class talking about safety around tools, gesturing wildly, then proceed to “accidentally” jam a carpenters knife all the way into his leg. Of course it freaked the f*** out of everyone until he showed us it was wooden and it was to show us to always respect the tools or you could easily f*** yourself up.

We had one kid who was always a dirtbag. Constantly talking, distracting other students, talking back, sleeping… just generally being a douchey little “thug”. Well our teacher was going over a project we were gonna start, mousetrap cars. We were gonna be working on them using bandsaws and other dangerous equipment. Kid just lays his head down and starts snoring. He wasn’t really asleep, just being a douche. Teacher set 3 mousetraps, and threw them straight at the kid. 1 clipped his ear, another hit his thumb, and the last missed.

A stunt like that would get a teacher fired nowadays but I’ll tell you one thing, he didn’t act like a douche in his class after that.”

3. Sounds like a wonderful educator

“Oh hang on for the ride. I had a humanities teacher in middle school who would hand out McDonalds applications to students who failed her tests, but that’s kid stuff. A friend of mine cried after a test (middle school hormones) and the teacher told her she was screwed because her only shot was stripping and she’s too fat. But who would believe a teacher said that? The thing that finally got her fired was back to back incidents in which she threw a desk across the room and kicked over a drum a student was carrying from class to class.”

4. Racist

“My 10th grade English teacher had a mental breakdown/racist rant in the middle of class. She’s white and our school population at the time was 76% black. I can’t remember exactly what was said but the teacher made some sly racist comment and no one really caught onto it – except one girl.

When the girl called her out, the teacher just lost her s*** and started babbling on with racist comments. The entire class was in a absolute uproar. Security was called and eventually the police because it kept escalating. Students were actively searching for her throughout the school. That was the last time anyone ever saw her.”

5. A little unstable

“Said she could fly, and challenged us to believe her. When someone tentatively asked her how, she climbed up on the desk and jumped off, flapping her arms. Then she talked about scientific process.

Also owned something like 70 rescue animals. Would bring one in each week on a rotation- hamster, tarantula, etc. Can you imagine how her house smelled?

But she could also be really cool. This poor kid in our class had some serious social disorder that made him really awkward/loud. Some redneck prick kicked him so hard that he got a testicular injury of some sort. I was late to class and didn’t witness it, just the aftermath.

Teacher came into the class and found him curled up under a desk crying. She got him immediate medical attention and then locked the classroom door, turned to us all, and chewed us out until she outed the perpetrator. I have rarely seen an adult be so scary. After the kid got hauled off to the office, she kept us locked in that room, alternately hissing and yelling about violence to others, accountability, standing up for others, etc. She even cried in front of us. No one looked each other in the eye for a long time.

She’s no longer a teacher. Works at the health food store in town.”

6. At least he kept his job

“Six foot five and chubby beloved science-biology teacher in his late sixties who breeds his own lines of roses and other fauna. Played football at collegiate level then fought in a war.

Stupid spoiled redneck sixteen year old that can barely read who has rich farmer grandparents on both sides and thinks he is untouchable.

Teacher calls him in up to his desk and demands his notebook and homework assignments; complete or not.

Idiot grabs teachers ever-present giant coffee mug from the desk. Yells “Sooey pig pig pig!” and splashes coffee in teachers face.

Idiot runs for the door giggling like a madman but doesn’t make it. Gets tossed out of the classroom door so hard he hits the opposite wall in the hall and we hear him squealing and crying down the hall as he is repeatedly caught and kicked in the a** by a giant.

He kept his job.”

7. Father and son duo

“Art teacher threw a metal stool at a student. Soon after he “retired”.

The next art teacher was his son. Who then proceeded to hit on high school freshman and made fun of art work done by special Ed students (to the kids face). He got fired real quick. Father art teacher then harassed the other art teacher in the school, due to his sons termination, which resulted in a restraining order and him being banned from the school property.”

8. Substitute

“We had a substitute teacher in high school one day. It was for the last period of the day too. He was short, stocky, balding, looked similar to George Costanza from Seinfeld.

Anyway, the class is going well, everyones relaxed since we have a sub, the sub was pretty cool. I remember he asked a question about why his head is shiny (because people asked I think) and I was the only one who knew the answer apparently; oils on his scalp, its normal.

I thought we hit it off and it was all good. Anyway, fast forward to the end of the class. Hes writing something on the board and someone throws a balled up piece of paper at him. He gets immediately infuriated. Thinks we’ve been making fun of him the entire time and he’s just been trying to keep his cool. He loses it, he’s throwing chalk and erasers, he shakes and pushes the teachers chair, then he demands that whoever threw it came forward.

This goes on for about 15 minutes before the final bell rings and we’re supposed to go home. I can’t remember if he locked the door or stood in front of it, but he said he’s not letting anyone leave until the person confesses (so he could tell on them.)

The bell rings, nobody confessed yet, we’re all sitting in our seats, hes staring at me like he knows I did it (I didnt do it – im not that much of an a$shole) and I basically talk with him, “You can’t really keep us here forever, if we miss our buses you’re going to be the one in trouble for 30 students missing the bus.” and he still is adamant that nobody is leaving until he gets a name.

I look around the room to see if anyone looks guilty, nobody really does, and I cant think of who would have done it. I don’t have patience when it comes to going home right on time, nor dealing with childish antics. I stand up and put on my bookbag, I say to the substitute, “Yeah, it was me, now can we go?” he lets us leave and writes my name down on a piece of paper.

“YOURE GOING TO BE IN BIG TROUBLE!!” he says as I walk out of the class room with everyone. I just shook my head, because that entire thing makes him look so foolish. My friends are laughing and some ask, “Dude did you throw it?!” “That was awesome!” I just said, “F*** no man, that’s mean, he was a nice dude.”

The next day the real teacher returns and sits me down, “What is this I hear about you throwing stuff at the back of the sub’s head before the end of class the other day?” — Thus I had to explain again that I took the fall for whoever truly did it, because I dont have that sort of patience. And I wasn’t going to have my dad drive all the way to school to pick me up because some teacher had a napoleon complex.

I don’t know if he believed me or not, but it kind of bothered me. I don’t like lying, I don’t like taking the fall for cowards, I don’t like people being mean to other people and bullying, just everything that I hate about humanity happened in that class.”

9. Sounds like it

“Smashed a desk a kid was sitting at in half with a sledgehammer, he was legitimately a great teacher.”

10. Breakdown

“Physics teacher when I was in 12th grade. It was her first year back after being out a few years. No one knew why she had taken several years off. Every class she would spend at least five minutes, sometimes ten or even fifteen, gushing about all of her son’s accomplishments. This woman was really proud of her son. Fine and all but can we learn? She wasn’t even that great of a teacher and the class mostly struggled.

More than halfway through the year someone found out the reason she had taken several years off. Her son was in a horrible accident and had passed away. She had a mental breakdown and couldn’t teach. She talked about her son like he was still alive every day to us. Someone reported it to the school and they made her leave. We got stuck with some unqualified substitute teacher the rest of the year. More than half the class failed the final exam. I myself barely passed with a 70.”

11. At least he apologized

“One kid kept acting up in our grade school class and wouldn’t heed the teacher’s warning to quiet down. So teacher walks casually down the aisle where the kid sat, feigned a trip and elbowed the kid on his head then profusely apologized.”

12. Classy

“In 4th grade, my teacher tried to tell us that ducks can’t float. She claimed ducks feet were always paddling to keep them above water.

My friend and I knew this wasnt correct. My friend told his dad about it after having dinner.

My friends dad told him to tell the teacher she was “full of sh*t.” He had been drinking whiskey and beer as all good dads do.

So ny friend did tell the teacher she was full of shit. In class the next day.

The teacher said…. verbatim “your dad is full of f*cking sh*t” in front of a class of fourth graders.

She got fired.

13. Wow!

“My 8th grade science teacher bit me on the shoulder and left his dentures on me when he pulled his head back.”

14. Tatted up

“Had a teacher who decided he needed a tattoo. He’d never got one before, but now in his 60s he NEEDED one. He came into class one day with this huge bear taking up his entire lower leg. He wore shorts every day which was just awkward.

Then one day he just didn’t come in. Nobody could find him. Turned out, he disappeared up to Alaska like some neurotic supertramp.”

15. A few good ones

“Heh, I have a few that from the same school system.

I witnessed this one first hand but my 10th grade English teacher had a mental breakdown/racist rant in the middle of class. She’s white and our school population at the time was 76% black. I can’t remember exactly what was said but the teacher made some sly racist comment and no one really caught onto it except one girl. When she called her out, the teacher just lost her sh*t and started babbling on with racist comments. The entire class was in a absolute uproar. Security was called and eventually the police because it kept escalating. Students were actively searching for her throughout the school. That was the last time anyone ever saw her.

Our freshmen principal was a weird one with girls. I had seen him a few times doing some odd things such as hugging onto a student or rubbing their back as his hand got lower and lower. About halfway through the year he was gone. Years later I met someone who was a part of administration in my former school system and they told me several girls made sexual harassment claims against him. They did nothing after the first few because there wasn’t any evidence.

A 6th grade teacher got completely hammered before class. Ended up walking out of his class with his shirt off. No clue what happened to him when he walked out but we never saw him again either.”

15 Redditors Tells Their Scariest Stories That Are 100% True

Think you’re brave? Well, check out these 15 true scary stories and see if that changes at all…

AskReddit users chimed in when they were asked, “What’s the scariest story you know that is 100% true?”

1. Terrifying

“There was a serial killer known as the Weepy Voiced Killer. He would kill people then call 911 from a payphone, crying and begging them to catch and stop him. You can find the recordings of his 911 calls on YouTube.”

2. A crazy story

“That Netflix documentary “Evil Genius” about the pizza guy in Erie, Pennsylvania who had a bomb collar put around his neck then was forced to rob a bank. As a former delivery driver I was scared the entire time, but also super intrigued by the investigation and the people involved.”

3. A local story

“There was a young girl kidnapped in the middle of the day on a neighborhood street in a Springfield, MO. Someone in the street witnessed the event and tried chasing the car on foot to at least get the plate number and call the police. They sent out an amber alert after a few hours, identified the owner of the vehicle and his residence but by the time they got to his house, they found her body in a plastic tub in his basement and she had been shot dead.

The most messed up thing was that this guy was a middle school coach. We found out at my catholic high school that the murderer was the son of our theology teacher. Our teacher left school for over a week I’m sure trying to fathom how his own son could commit such a heinous crime.

The murderer was sentenced to death this year for the death of the girl, Hailey Owens. Her family, as well as the family of the murderer, lobbied to change amber alert laws so they can be issued faster after a kidnapping is reported.”

4. She survived

“A woman was abducted by 2 men who stabbed her over 30 times. Her neck muscle completely removed, her guts spilling out. She crawled to the hospital WITH HER HEAD ALMOST DETACHED and survived. She wrote a book and now is a motivational speaker with 2 kids.”

5. High speed crash

“This is a hometown story that stayed with me. It happened literally right around the corner from where I grew up, maybe a two minute drive away.

Judy Kirby murdered six children and one adult by intentionally driving the wrong way on a divided highway in an attempt to commit suicide. She had been hospitalized for depression, but had also just ended a relationship with her ex husband’s brother and was by some reports involved in drug trafficking and fearing an imminent arrest.

She picked up her sister’s son, who was celebrating his tenth birthday that day. She then loaded her three children into the car, supposedly to pick up a gift for the nephew. Instead, she went missing with the carload of kids. A short time later, calls started coming in to 911 about a car going the wrong way down the highway at a high rate of speed. They made it about 90 seconds before a head-on collision with another vehicle, driven by a father with two children and another child along for the ride.

The crash annihilated both vehicles. The only survivors were Kirby herself, and the child who was along for the ride in the other car. She was sentenced to 215 years in prison.”

6. A knock on the door

“This is second hand from my mom so I dont remember everything, but when I was younger (like 3 or 4) and she was home alone with me some guy came up to the door. This was before cellphones and people were nicer so she answered it even though it was like 8 or 9 at night. Well the guy was asking if he could come in and use her phone but she said no. He asked a couple more times before walking in and immediately got stop by the family dog grabbing his hand and holding it tightly.

He started to get nervous and my dads dog led him back to the door (he had walked further in at this point) my mom was able to push him out and lock the door before running upstairs and calling the police. The cops picked him up a little while later and they found out he had been in a bar fight and stabbed a guy a bunch of times. Without my “older brother” my mom and I could’ve been seriously hurt. He was the best dog ever and lived till the ripe age of 15.”

7. Massacre in Mexico

“The 2011 San Fernando massacre. Mexican cartel members (Los Zetas) abducted people from buses in Mexico. They executed the old and weak, tortured the women, threw the children in acid, and separated the men. The men were then forced into gladiatorial combat to the death, all in some kind of game to find new cartel recruits. They even forced the bus driver to run the bus over living people. It still blows my mind that this happened right there in Mexico, just a few years ago.”

8. Close call

“A friend of a friend was traveling in the UK and had to hitch-hike. The guy dropped her off at home. The next day police came knocking and proceeded to take her to the station and demand how she knows this man, what is their relationship etc. She finds out that the man had killed another female hitch-hiker that same day and had her in the trunk at the same time he was driving her (the friend). For some unknown reason he hadn’t killed her. She couldn’t sleep and cried for days and her home was placed on watch.”

9. On the highway

“Back in the 90’s, my mom was on the highway heading home from a friends house late at night. She was driving a really nice Thunderbird. After a while this big white van drove next to her and the driver started performing some very rude gestures and being young and dumb, my mom reciprocated the gestures. Then the dude pulled up a big Bowie knife to the window. My mom started panicking and sped up to get away and the van was following right along. Then the guy tried to run her off the road.

Keep in mind they’re probably going about 100 miles per hour. She gets on the exit to get home and he’s still following her. When she does get back to her house, which she shared with my grandparents, she pulled into the drive way honking the horn and screaming trying to wake someone up. The van pulls into the driveway just as my grandfather comes out in his underwear with a gun. The dude got scared and drove off. My mom wouldn’t leave her house for month except for school, but never at night.”

10. This is about the worst thing ever

“Fatal Familial Insomnia. The whole story is crazy and perhaps the most terrifying Wikipedia rabbit hole I’ve ever gone down. Only a few families have this genetic disorder, and once you develop it, that’s it, you die an agonizing death from an inability to sleep. It starts off like regular insomnia, but progresses over a few years until you legit go insane and finally shut down. NOTHING, not even the most potent drug, can induce sleep. Even when they tried to put them in comas, the brain remained completely active.”

11. Cannibal

“Issei Sagawa, the Japanese cannibal who admitted he still fantasizes about killing and eating women (after killing and eating a woman in Paris) walks free unmedicated and unmonitored in Japan to this day. Pretty creepy to know people like that walk around freely.”

12. A tragedy

“Last summer in my city a 14-year old girl was raped near a train station. After her abuser left her she tried to get help and flagged down a vehicle and was raped a second time in the car of the man who stopped. Two complete strangers raped her on the same day, it happened only a few miles away from my house and I still think about it from time to time.”

13. While they slept

“My great-aunt and her husband owned a successful horse farm and found out that their son was stealing money from them. After he found out he went into their house while they were asleep and shot them to death, first my great-uncle while he sleeping and my great-aunt was found shot in her back laying across the front porch steps. He’s currently in jail for a long time.”

14. Dead on the balcony

“I lived in an apartment in Marina del Rey, California. 9 years ago, just before Halloween, a third-floor balcony was decorated with a prop of a dead man slumped over in a chair. For a few days, every time I’d come home I’d look up and think how cool looking it was and wondering why they didn’t have lights shining on it at night. After a few days, people realized it was actually the resident of the apartment who killed himself. I was looking at a corpse thinking how cool it was.”

15. Creeper

“Not the scariest thing that I know about, but the scariest thing that ever happened to ME: I worked at a pretty well known record store in Los Angeles in the 90s. A guy in his early twenties used to come in and ask me about records a lot, and one day in conversation he let a weird detail about my life slip that I hadn’t told him (my dad is not American). I brushed it off, thinking my co-workers has mentioned it to him since he was such a regular. About a week later I was driving home and my car broke down. It was incredibly hot and I had to walk several miles to get to a payphone, which was outside an elementary school. I called a cab and hung up the phone, and after sitting a moment, it started ringing, so I picked it up.

The person on the other end said, “bad luck about your car- talk to me until your ride gets there. “ I hung up the phone, but it was definitely that guy. He had to have followed me from home, trailed me from the car, called the school to ask for the payphone number, and found a way to call me at that number. There weren’t really cellphones at that time, but there was a gas station and a grocery store across the street so who knows. I immediately quit my job and moved back in with my parents within 48 hours. I went in to visit old friends from work a few months later and they told me the guy was arrested for kidnapping. Fml:

Escorts Reveal the Differences Between Attractive and Unattractive Clients

This may not have ever been something you wanted to know, but now that you know it’s out there… aren’t you a little curious?

In this article, AskReddit users who work as escorts explain how attractive and unattractive clients act differently. Interesting…

1. Not relationship material

“My attractive clients are less likely to try to pursue a relationship. Other than that I don’t notice much of a difference.”

2. Looks don’t matter

“How my clients treat me has never something that is connected to how attractive they are. However, I can say that all clients that have genuinely scared me or have been really unpleasant have been older (40s-60s) unattractive men. That’s not relevant though.

There is no such thing as an attractive client in terms of that their looks. I do not want them, I want their money. I’m at work, not seeking sexual pleasure.

There most definitely is a thing which is a good client. A good client is respectful, showers before, doesn’t try to push boundaries and most importantly, treats me like a human but remembers that I’m there because he gives me money. And acts accordingly. Yeah, of course non-gross people (not obese, not too old) are easier, but they’re not “attractive.”

How the client looks or how attractive he is has nothing to do with how I am treated and doesn’t define if I like him as a client or not. It simply doesn’t matter.

A client’s looks don’t matter. We’re not in a relationship or having something that requires genuine lust or want from my side. What matters is how well behaved and respectful they are. You could ask for example a shop keeper if it matters how the person who buys milk and bread from them looks. Let’s start respecting sex work and sex workers as they deserve to be respected, as working people who are doing their job.”

3. Dealing with crap

“You’re making a huge assumption here which is that there’s a wide range of attractiveness in clients. If you want to see what most of my clients look like, Google “middle aged white man” and pick the most average result. Not extremely ugly, but by no means super hot.

That said, my experience is that some clients who think they’re hot (they aren’t) believe that they deserve a discount for it. Apparently the idea is that if I enjoy doing my job I’m entitled to less cash.

It’s these sort of behaviors from clients – flakiness, insisting on discounts, and otherwise being difficult – that ultimately made me leave the profession a year or two ago. For all the money you make per hour there’s several hours of dealing with client crap. The actual work itself was fine.”

4. The whole shebang

“Female escort here, first time posting but I always welcome a chance to share my experiences and shed some light on the job.

I’ve found a lot of my younger and/or more attractive clients are cockier (no pun intended), ruder, and a lot of them want a “adult film star experience” which is just a pain in the butt a lot of the time (again, no pun intended). Obviously this can’t be said for everyone, though; I’ve had plenty of unattractive dudes that were worse.

Regardless of appearance, in my opinion the best clients are:

-Hygienic

-Respectful

-Don’t have sex at all but just pay for company and conversation

The worst clients:

-Are smelly/rude/aggressive/too drunk

-Try to haggle

-Are delusional about their “talents” in the bedroom

-Ask if I have a boyfriend/ask to date me/tell me they love me.”

5. Clingy

“Former escort. Honestly I found my more attractive clients generally better behaved, and more interested in pleasuring me. The unattractive could get pretty entitled and pushy, less thought or care to me enjoying it. Or get very clingy.

I’d say however there was a bigger split by age for behavior. And there were a lot more attractive men using escorts than you’d think, it was just more convenient than online dating for many.”

6. Behave yourself

“It’s more their behavior. I have found suits who are more attractive can be more mean.

But I really go on behavior.”

7. Words from a veteran

“Now, as somebody who worked as an escort for almost a decade, I have to say it’s different for everyone. But the not so attractive ones tend to be… More humble, in a way. Some attractive dudes were cocky as hell. One instance I’ll remember forever is the time one pretty handsome guy said something like ‘You’re lucky to be with me, any woman would want me.’ Like, you hired a sex worker to be with you, when you could’ve gotten together with ‘any other girl.’”

8. Doesn’t matter

“When I was an escort, it didn’t matter how they acted as long as they were respectful of me and they had my money. As long as they weren’t violent I never cared. Ugly men pay more though and are most likely to be a nice regular. The goal of a good escort is to get a group of no nonsense regulars. My regulars kept me paid.”

9. Make that money

“Yeah, that’s the thing- reality tends to be a different from what people tend to imagine. As someone who has actually done it for four years, I can say with absolute certainty that the client’s look don’t matter one bit. I’m not there to “enjoy.” I am not having sex as in enjoying intimacy.

I am giving sex as someone who isn’t me, concentrating 100% on the client and being on my guard all the time. What I care about is making money, as quickly and easily as possibly and keeping myself safe. If by “kind” you mean someone who respect me and my boundaries and acts like he should, that matters.”

15 Clever Ways to Get Unwanted Guests out of Your House

Listen, friends are great… but we all need our own space at the end of the night.

It happens to everyone: You invite some friends over for dinner and they stay for a few hours. But when you’re ready for them to leave, they just don’t get the hint. They linger on and on…and your night never ends.

Well, I have good news! AskReddit users were nice enough to share the best ways to get these folks out of your face when it seems like they’ll never leave.

1. Snooze alert

“Start talking about a topic that bores them.

Had that one friend living in the same building and visiting me too often and too long. But she kind of detested video games so whenever I started with “When I was playing Final Fantasy the other day…” she always blocked “Oh, look at the time! I have to go! Bye!” and went home for the day.”

2. The perfect song

“Play ‘Closing Time’ over and over again until they get the hint.”

3. Fight!

“My girlfriend and I always act like we’re getting pissed at each other and about to fight. No one wants to be around that.”

4. A good plan

“Stomach problems. Tell a guest that

“As much as I’d love for you to stay, I’m about to have serious gastrointestinal distress and I’d like you not to have to experience it with me!”

That has always worked for me.”

5. Take the small one

“English here. I have 2 sets of tea mugs in my house, small and large. If someone turns up and I don’t want them to be there long, I give them the small mugs and hope they leave when they’ve finished”

6. The British way

“If you’re British, you wait for any lull in conversation, put your hands on your knees as you stand up and say, “Well then…” “

7. The yawn is key

“Say, “Well, it was great catching up with you.” Stand up, head towards the door. Yawn loudly.

Although one time this didn’t work and I lost it. We had friends come to pick up an item they’d bought. They wouldn’t stop chatting. Oh, the questions about everything. I had an appointment 2hrs drive away and I didn’t want to be late. SO and I finally got them out of the house but they just stood there now talking about different stuff. I’d said I had to leave. Now. That I might be late. I felt panic. “It was great seeing you.” I walked to the car and started getting in. SO was trapped on the doorstep talking to them. I lost it, screaming, “Hurry up (SO’s name), we’re going to be f-cking late. Get in the car, now.” I look up to three shocked faces. SO says, “I’m coming. We’re just saying good bye.” “

8. This is great

“My grandpa used to get up, put on his pyjamas and act surprised that people were still in his living room. Worked like a charm.”

9. Adam

“My sister comes back from university for the weekend and one her friends gave her a lift home, let’s call him Adam. Bare in mind she arrived home at around 4pm. I get home from school around 5 and Adam is still there after inviting himself in as he wanted a quick rest from the 2 hour drive from Birmingham to London.

Anyway, skip forward a couple of hours. It’s 7pm, he’s still there and keeps saying he needs to leave soon as he is having Friday night dinner at his aunties, whilst my mum is cooking for our Friday night dinner. Finally my dad walks in at 7.30 and is greeted by Adam who he has never met before with his hood up and feet sprawled over the sofa. My bald dad asks why he has his hood up to which he responds wittingly with “I didn’t want to make you jealous of my hair.” Dad’s not happy, but laughs it off.

Eventually, Adam asks if he can stay for dinner, my mother being the typical Jewish mother that she is even though she has only cooked for the four of us can’t say no. Now, we don’t have a traditional Friday night dinner it usually last around 45 mins- 1 hour so think he will leave after. Oh, wrong we were, he’s still here at 11pm and not looking likely to leave any time soon.

Eventually, Adam leaves to use the toilet. At which point my dad comes up with an ingenious solution, someone will phone the mobile and he’ll pick up and pretend to be his brother claiming some emergency and we all have to go to his house. So, Adam comes out of the toilet, I ring my dad’s phone, he has a fake conversation with no one and hangs up. He tells Adam we have to go over to my uncles whilst my dad puts on his coat. Adam accepts this and start to get ready to leave.

10 minutes later, Adam is still there ‘getting ready’. This time my dad say we have to leave now and ushered everyone outside, locks the front door and we head to the car. Adam, gets into his car and just sits there. We wait a couple of minutes expecting him to drive off, but he never does, he just sits there looking at his phone. This is getting ridiculous now, my dad turns on the ignition and drives off. We go around the block and drive back up the road, and he is still there. So my dad parks up in the road next to house and wait 10 minutes to go back when he has finally gone.

We had to run away from our own house to get rid of an unwanted guest, because we are too polite to tell him to f-ck off.”

10. Turn up the heat

“My grandfather would always turn up the thermostat so all of the rooms got unbearably hot/stuffy haha.”

11. Infestation

“Scream rat / mouse and run out of the house.

Then when everyone is running out of the house you can run back in and lock yourself in.”

12. Straight to the point

“Tell them to go away.”

13. No job = No responsibilities

“When we have our unemployed friends over, that don’t grasp that we have to get up and go to work in the morning, I will change into my pj’s and start taking off my makeup. That is usually a big enough hint, at least for the women, then they take the guys with them.”

14. Not a bad idea

“Follow Carrie Fisher’s advice. Put on the Star Wars Christmas special.”

15. Time to leave

“Start stacking your chairs onto the tabletops, like you’re in a restaurant at closing time.”

The Foods These 12 Picky Eaters Would Turn Down Even If They Were Starving

Most of us have a food or two that totally turns our stomach, but if you were starving? I think most people would choke down what’s available (and the contestants on Naked and Afraid seem to prove the assumption) – but these 12 people have found at least one food that makes them ready to die rather than make the best of things.

#12. To save my life.

“In boot camp, I learned for a fact that it is broccoli.

While it’s not the most physical thing in the world, you rarely sit down, and you don’t truly rest much. I ate as much as humanly possible because I was losing weight so quickly, but most importantly, the DI’s check your plate. I could not choke down the broccoli to save my life. I ended up mashing it up and hiding it under my orange peels.”

#11. Calories are calories.

“Anything moldy or spoiled.

That’s it. I’ve been starving before, like “Sleep for dinner” and then “We’re out of oatmeal and milk but you can drink coffee creamer for breakfast” starving.

I will eat ANYTHING if I’m hungry enough. I may not enjoy it, but calories are calories.”

#10. Like an oil spill.

“Salad with a ton of mayo. Looks like you caught a lettuce in an oil spill.”

#9. The real texture.

“Anything with onions. I like the artificial flavor (funyuns) but the real texture is disgusting to me.”

#8. Organs.

“Liver. Gross…”

#7. Gooshy?

“Straight tomatoes. Will not eat! Too gooshy.

Chopped up and made into salsa? Will eat.

Mixed into a paste and spread on something? Will eat.

Straight? Nope.”

#6. In the can.

“Canned green beans.”

#5. Never say never.

“I will never ever, ever eat dog meat.”

#4. Americans, man.

“Spotted dick. It’s a real thing but the name really turns me off.”

#3. The worst.

“Raisins.

The worst food possible.”

#2. I would die.

“Not really food but milk…If I was dying and milk was my only option, I would not consume it, I would die.

Chocolate/strawberry milk is fine, but regular white milk literally makes me gag and throw up. I’d pass on the life saving milk.”

#1. Not even if you paid me.

“Mushy peas. Not even if you paid me.”

The Exact Scariest Moment of These 15 People’s Lives

Some of these people have had some seriously terrifying, rough days. And to you, my friends, I offer a trigger warning – beware going forward if you’ve experienced any serious trauma (like suicide or other violent death) in your own life.

#15. It’s a void.

“An accident in which I lost 2 full weeks of memory. I have seen pictures where I’m in a wheelchair being pushed around the hospital by my parents and brother, I have my eyes open, I’m laughing, but I remember literally zero of it. Nothing. It’s a void.”

#14. They still scare me.

“I was at an airport and a woman’s leg got stuck in the escalator. I remember a lot of blood and her screaming and watching her pray to god as the paramedics wheeled her away.

Escalators still scare me.

Edit: I also just remembered another detail, people were pressing the stop button and it didn’t stop.”

#13. Glad to this day.

“As a child, around 12, I was walking back to school, from a tennis lesson. The route was around a km and some.

I just started on my way back, and this car soon comes by and pulls over. A senior, possibly in his late 60s is the only occupant.

He asks where I’m going, and if I need a lift. I politely decline, then he started asking other questions. Being oblivious, I answer him, discussing my father’s work, what my mother did with her time, and how many siblings I had. Didn’t think anything of it for so many years, till around 2 years ago, the memory popped up in my head.

Only then did the gravity of what was happening at the time come home. He was trying to familiarize himself with me, and in some way grooming me to see him as a friend.

I’m still glad to this day that I never got into that car.”

#12. It haunts and horrifies me.

“Watching my 7 y.o niece have her arm mauled by an 80 lb dog. Desperately smashing its head with a broken shovel to get it to release her. Having to use my hand to hold her upper arm to stop the loss of blood looking ar yee mutilated flesh. It haunts and horrifies me. Everytime I hear a child yell or scream I have a moment panic that goes to.my core. Every time I look at her arm I feel deeply saddened and sickened.”

#11. As dumb as I was.

“When I was 10 or 11, I was at the mall with my mom. We were in Venture, near the entrance to the mall. Some guy in his early 20s or late teens was standing there at the entrance, my mom a few aisles over. He started talking to me, asking if I wanted to go to the arcade with him. He claimed to know my brother, that he went to school with him. Me, being young and stupid, pipes up with “oh, you know _______ (my brothers name)”. He’s like yeah I know _______!

As dumb as I was, I was thankfully at least smart enough to go and ask my mom if it was okay. She freaked and went over to where he was, and of course he was gone.”

#10. Always wear a helmet.

“About two years back, I saw a live road accident involving a bike and a truck. The biker’s head was squished like a water melon. This was too disturbing to see. A human body in a shape like that. I will never forget that sight.

ALWAYS WEAR A HELMET GUYS!”

#9. The sound.

“A man jumped/fell from a building in New York and landed about three metres behind me. The sound when he hit, and the way he hit half on the sidewalk, half on the road, and his body had moulded to the kerb and just..spread out.

This happened in 1998 and I can still remember every detail..”

#8. Every time I think about it.

“Directly behind my house is a huge recreation area with miles and miles of hiking trails. People have gone missing there in recent years and they’ve found bodies there too. One day about two years ago I fell asleep on the couch accidentally and at like two AM, my dogs went absolutely crazy barking at the front door and they wouldn’t shut up so I got up to see what it was. There was a man standing in my doorway with the screen door already opened in his hand- like I caught him the second between opening my screen door and opening the door to my house, which I had accidentally left unlocked because like I said, I accidentally fell asleep. I was totally out of it and still half asleep so the situation didn’t really dawn on me and the first thing out of my mouth was “Oh, hey. What do you need?” Then I woke up and realized what the hell was going on and slammed my door shut in his face and locked it and called 911. The dude left and the police never found anyone. I obviously don’t know why that man was on my doorstep but the fact that he could have taken me into that park very easily and no one would have known until it was too late shakes me up every time I think about it.”

#7. So dang creepy.

“I was going through a hard time and needed money. I saw an ad in a local paper that said “buying musical instruments. Any condition. Call ####.” So, I called to sell my guitar. I talked to a man on the phone, and he seemed nice enough. He asked about the condition and what model it was and what not. He said he wanted to buy it and agreed to meet me at a guitar center near by.

So, I meet this guy in the parking lot and I show him my guitar. He asks, “why are you trying to sell your guitar?” I tell him that I am going through a hard time. He then says, “well, you could stay with me if you want.” I say, “um, no sir. Are you still going to buy my guitar?” He ignores me and says, “How about you jack me off and I’ll give you $50.” I calmly reply, “No. Are you going to buy this or not?” So he asks, “How about you watch me jack off in my car and I’ll give you $50.” To which I replied, “No! What the FUCK?!” I grabbed my guitar, went into the store and waited inside until he left.

He stayed in that parking lot for a bit too. So dang creepy. I called that paper and got his ad removed.”

#6. Life is a funny thing.

“When I was 22, just graduated college, I began my job search. Within the first 3 weeks out of college, I was lucky to find a job relatively close to where my family lived. I still lived at home to help pay off my loans, and as a recent grad, I was more concerned with getting a job than getting my own place.

My older brother and I are both very close, basically best friends. We decided to celebrate with a long night of gaming 3 nights before my “big boy job” started. He doesn’t live at home with us, so it was going to be some good ol’ online gaming.

I was planning on playing his voice audio over the speakers in my room, but it wasn’t working. My younger brother (16 at the time) was in the room with me and wanted to hear my older brothers voice. For whatever reason, we couldn’t get it to work because he would hear himself through my microphone. So instead, we were going to use a headphone method instead, both wearing headsets. We were seconds from putting those headsets on when we heard a faint scream. It was a strange sound, and we were unsure what was going on.

When we ran down the stairs (we were on the second floor of the house) we searched frantically for what that noise was. My parents were on the front porch with friends, so we knew it wasn’t them. The only other person who was home was my younger sister (~20 years old) who at the time was going through A LOT of dark times.

We both ran down into the basement, turned the corner, and saw my sister hanging 2 feet above the ground with an electrical extension cord around her neck. Chair was knocked over, and she was frantically clawing at her neck. Her face was swollen purple, it was a horrific thing to see. My brother FROZE, and I ran up and grabbed her, lifted her up on my tippy toes to give some slack to the cord, and yelled for him to get my parents. I had to yell a few times for him to finally go and get my mom and dad. She ended up surviving. When emergency personnel came to assess the situation, and take her to the hospital to check for brain damage and injuries, the first officer on the scene pulled me aside, shook my hand, and said she could have been dead in seconds. He said he was happy to finally come to one of these scenes where the person survived.

The story goes on from there. Had we not had audio issues in my room, I wonder how this situation would have been different. I mean it, we were seconds from putting on the headsets.

Life is a funny thing.”

#5. When I was thirteen…

“When I was thirteen I found my best friend hanging from a belt in my closet. I thought it was a joke at first until I pushed him and he started swinging. He had just knelt down and let it happen. I got him down and pulled the belt loose and there was a nasty mark and I think that was when I realised how serious it was. Ran and told parents to call 911. Ran back upstairs and could hear some gurgling noises coming from him. He was in a coma for a week but he lived thank God. To top it off a lot of people including his parents blamed me.”

#4. A BLACK MAMBA.

“Not as morbid as some of the others in this thread but probably getting stuck in the shower ( technically a wet room) with a black mamba while on holiday aged 8. That was pretty terrifying.”

#3. Four years later.

“When I was crossing a road and a car came screaming around the corner didn’t see me and hit me. This happened right outside my sons school. He saw the accident but didn’t know it was me ( I was in all black gym clothes ). Concision, head trauma, obliterated my left shoulder ACL and tore my ACL in my left knee. Huge bruise from hip to lower calf.

Hospital said they only thing that saved me was I didn’t see it coming so was not expecting it and was basically a rag doll. Turns out the driver was not insured, suspended license and the car wasn’t his.

I still shit myself 4 years later when crossing the road.”

#2. The last time.

“Finding my six week old baby deceased. Trying to do cpr on his obviously lifeless little body while on the phone with 911 while I listened to my husband and kids screaming in agony. Holding him against me trying to warm him and knowing this was the last time I would ever have him in my arms.”

#1. Never knowing.

“I was a freshman in college when I received a series of mysterious/threatening phone calls. At the time, I was pledging my fraternity and assumed that some of the brothers were pranking me. The calls always came from a restricted number. The calls were innocuous enough at first – asking me how I was enjoying the pledging experience, etc. Over time, they got more and more threatening, telling me that I was going to be murdered/threatening to hurt me. The actual weirdest part, though, was that the mysterious caller started calling random people in my life and telling them that I was in love with them (there was no pattern to who these people were and I was certainly not in love with these people). A lot of these people were men (I am queer but was deeply in the closet at the time and definitely no brothers knew that). I only found out because these people, many of whom I hadn’t spoken to in awhile, independently called me asking me why they were receiving these weird calls/voicemails.

Eventually, I confronted the fraternity’s president telling him to let the brothers know to knock it off. He was genuinely confused and assured me that no one was pranking me. Eventually, the calls stopped, but to this day, I wonder how the caller (A) knew so much about my personal life and (B) why he would invest so much time and energy into something so pointless. I genuinely hope I figure out who it is one day but have resigned myself to never knowing.”

6 Adorable Animals That Are Surprisingly Violent

They say don’t judge a book by its cover… and the same goes for animals. Don’t trust an animal just because it’s got a cute, fluffy exterior. Beneath those big eyes and purrs is a ferorious creature just waiting to be unleashed. These six animals are way more violent than you’d expect.

1. Swans

Similar to cows, most swans are beautiful, gentle creatures, but there are some that are natural born killers. For example, a swan in Wales named Hannibal killed 15 fellow swans in a particularly vicious manner: Hannibal bit his victims, beat them with his wings, and broke their toes before holding them underwater and drowning them.

So basically, Hannibal is a swan serial killer.

And then there was the swan that was constantly attacking rowers on a river in England, until he and his mate were relocated to avoid further carnage.

2. Beavers

Beavers may look harmless, but they have huge, razor-sharp teeth that can chomp right through a femoral artery, which is what happened to a fisherman who died from his injuries in Belarus in 2013. They’ve also been known to attack swimmers and go after dogs. So it’s best to avoid these guys.

3. Cows

Most cows are not violent, but a specific type known as Heck cattle are also called (this isn’t a joke) “Nazi Super Cows.” These cows were bred in Nazi Germany and still roam parts of that country today. A farmer in England bought some of the cows and brought them to the UK, but soon discovered his mistake. He said, “They would try to kill anyone.”

4. Dolphins

Not Flipper!!! Yes, I’m sorry to report that dolphins are actually pretty deadly, especially to each other. It wasn’t until the 1990s when researchers discovered that male dolphins slaughtered other dolphins, including their own babies.

They’ve also been known to occasionally attack swimmers.

5. Prairie Dogs

Prairie dogs are plant eaters, but that doesn’t mean they don’t murder other animals. Their main competition for resources on the prairie are squirrels, and they’ve been known to attack and bite them to death, though they don’t eat their bodies.

Prairie dogs that kill have offspring that live longer than non-killers, so scientists are curious whether this phenomenon is occurring in other animals as well.

6. Koalas

Koalas mostly keep to themselves and spend 22 hours a day sleeping, but sometimes they can snap and go after dogs and humans. And their bite is quite nasty.

Be careful out there! The animals might be taking over!
