‘A guy I knew was a recovering alcoholic and on his last chance with his wife. He had been clean for several years, but one night he didn’t come home. He was found in someone’s front yard passed out with beer bottles around him. He had no recollection of anything that had happened the night before. His wife kicked him to the curb and he was shunned by family and friends.

‘He ended up going to the hospital because his hangover never went away and he was feeling terrible.

‘As it turns out, he wasn’t out drinking that night. He had gone for a walk and was jumped and robbed by a bunch of drunk assholes and left unconscious in someone’s yard. He had a tbi and a lot of people around him feeling pretty bad.’

‘Up against the barriers at a Bob Dylan concert. Mark Knopfler was opening. Half way through Knopfler’s set the couple next to me started arguing.

‘The dude was screaming at her, calling her a slag because she was “making eyes at the bass player”. Finally he stormed off, excruciatingly slowly, because the crowd was so thick. Asked her if she was alright and she said “Yeah, he’s a prick.” and she seemed to have a blast the rest of the gig.’

‘Hurricane Katrina. Wife was a team A medical first responder for a hospital. Husband was not. Once it became obvious how serious the storm was going to be, both made the decision for the husband to evacuate with their cat and stay just north of the city with family.

‘Wife was stuck for well over a week in the city dealing with hell on earth. She eventually made it safely out of the city.

‘Her husband claimed that the cat ran away from their family member’s home. I can’t remember the reason he gave.

‘It wasn’t until they were gutting their home when the wife finally found out the truth: husband forgot their cat and left it at home. The same home that received several feet of floodwater and sludge. They found what was left of the cat’s body in the home.

‘She filed for divorce so fast. 100% do not blame her. It’s still a crazy reason.’
