“Give” or given under duress? If I tell you that I am going to beat you up if you don’t give me your drink and I give it to you, I technically gave it to you.

[cuban leaf]

He didn’t steal that drink. It was given to him. That’s a huge difference.

He may have stolen drinks in the past and if he is still in this one it would have been different.

>>Her kid Gave the drink to a kid who stole his drink on previous day.

It could have been “given” under duress.

[Clutch Martin]

I’m calling horse shite on this. Vinegar, lemon, salt and water are not caustic. People deink vinegar and water daily as a health tonic.

[metmom]

Lemon, vinegar, etc and the kid took more than one sip? Enough to make him sick? Stupid kid with bad taste buds!

And he didn't spit it out immediately?

Not buying it.

[heartwood]

How would a child even drink salty vinegar? 999 people in 1000 would spit it out with first taste.

[chopperk]

The parents of the kid who stole the drink should be jailed for lack of training given the little bastard.

[1Old Pro]

Bully won’t steal drinks again.

[ViLaLuz]

Haymakers punch!! Great stuff when working in hot summer weather.

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

I sip pickle juice, instead of a sports drink, during my workouts.

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

Likely not the parents.
The \school\ called for an ambulance.
Bank it.

[gundog]

Meh. Just let the kid steal the drinks. Tell him in a few months that it was two parts urine.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

It almost sounds like he was hospitalized just to get a case against the mother.

Yep.

They hospitalize for everything these days.

Unless you say you were raped in the bathroom by a pervert. In that case you should just walk it off and be arrested for saying he assaulted you with his penis. Her penis you bigot!

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

I remember students who took candy or cookies to school loaded with e-lax to stop bullies from stealing from them.

[Disambiguator]

I work in a machine shop, and one of my coworkers once told me they solved a lunch thief problem by putting metal chips in a sandwich.

[Daveinyork]

My college roommate would eat anything, as long as it was free. He was handed a chocolate bar, and he wolfed it. It was a whole bar of Exlax, nine pieces. Needless to say, his next day was far from pleasant.

“I sip pickle juice, instead of a sports drink, during my workouts.”

I help support a long-distance bicycle ride in the early summer in Oklahoma & riders love to get the packets of frozen pickle juice offered at the rest stop.

[ansel12]

I forgot about hitting the bar after summer work and loading up on Salty Dogs or Margaritas.

[ansel12]

Pickle juice is great stuff, and brined pickles are the best dill-type pickles.

I recommend that everyone tour the Middle Eastern stores for a huge selection of pickled foods cheap, and usually excellent and cheap coffee beans.
