Arrested for unpaid parking tickets? Probably cost the State/City more to feed and house OP than the tickets are worth.

If someone knocked on my door claiming my wifi were killing their plants, my response would be "Yes, it's intentional. I invision a future free of plant life. Thank you for confirming it is working." then I'd close the door and then say out loud "Yes, I'm glad it's all coming together, now".

Anyone else thinking that it might have been a family member who stole OP’s ID, and the family pushed all the blame on him to cover it up? Wouldn’t be the first time.

Story one is a bit olf(few moonths) and had an update: op got stressed by his parents, talked with his awesome cousin and shee spilled that those 2 waste of people were being blasted by grandpa(mom's father) for the family in the dark, and the whole "family name" stuff is just delulu talk since mommy and daddy are the most disgracefull people in the family(mom got pregnant early and out of wedlock, dad tried to "mingle" with father-in-law bussiness collegues to feel superior and failed miserably)

Story 1: What "lesson" is OP supposed to learn here? To me, the only lesson he learned here is that his family will cut him off over the smallest things and "face" is more important than their literal son. Why do they want OP back in his life, obviously it's for money, what else? I know they didn't explicitly say they need money, they are likely just trying to make small talk and gradually bringing up the fact they need money.

Story 5: If the plants are confusing wifi and sunlight at 10pm, they're clearly not very bright plants and she'd be better off with new ones.

Story 1: Okay first of all, they disowned their son for 15 years over parking tickets that weren’t even his, and I doubt they didn’t know that. I would consider it being nice not to slam the door in their face. Second the friend was not listening because if they were, they will understand OP did listen to them until they said something he did not like. The fact that it was the second sentence is on them. I think R/ has a point, they probably can’t lie to the family anymore, found out their own son were doing well and they decided they wanted a piece of pie. Fuck because they’re incapable of pretending to be sorry, and it’s impossible for someone to not want to see their terrible parents again they assume they could just come in and force an unearned apology out of OP for having his identity stolen.

Story 5: yeah so obviously this woman was trying to steal OP’s Wi-Fi, but she could’ve at least tried something more… not stupid. Like has this scam worked before? Is that why she thought OP would’ve fell for it?

He got lucky by graduating? I am sure OP worked his ass off to graduate. 👨‍🎓
