The second where we read weird 6 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,279 Speaker 1: news stories around the globe, just like everyone else, except 7 00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:26,000 Speaker 1: we've got a laser. 8 00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:27,880 Speaker 2: These other foot finders just don't. 9 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:31,720 Speaker 1: This first laser story is out of Utah. You ever 10 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,280 Speaker 1: lived with someone who did a really lousy job with 11 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:38,159 Speaker 1: the dishes. It's more annoying than not doing the dishes 12 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:40,520 Speaker 1: in the first place, because you're to do it again. 13 00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 2: I live with two of them and they're under the 14 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:42,360 Speaker 2: age of. 15 00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:45,560 Speaker 1: Ten, but it's probably not worth going to jail over well, 16 00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:48,159 Speaker 1: I can arrest them because a twenty three year old 17 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,159 Speaker 1: woman named Miranda Lapruit got into a heated argument with 18 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 1: her roommate over dirty plates not being washed it. Police 19 00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 1: say Miranda asked her roommate if she'd do the dishes 20 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 1: since they were in the sink for the last six 21 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:02,600 Speaker 1: days and it was her turn. 22 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:06,839 Speaker 2: But the answer that she got back was maybe later, 23 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 2: oh after six days. They're probably moldy. 24 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 1: So Miranda then flew into a rage through her roommate's 25 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: closed bedroom door and made her fall to the ground. Okay, 26 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,759 Speaker 1: she then kicked her, grabbed her by the hair and neck, 27 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:26,600 Speaker 1: and strangled her to the point where she couldn't breathe 28 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: for five seconds. There'd be a better way to solve 29 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,240 Speaker 1: roommate problems that Luckily, the cops were called by a 30 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 1: neighbor and everything turned out all right. 31 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 2: Her roommate did not suffer any. 32 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 1: Serious injuries, and Miranda was charged with aggravated assault. Man. 33 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's an awkward night when she gets back from 34 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:48,000 Speaker 3: the police department, unclear who's. 35 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 1: Going to be doing the dishes while Miranda is locked 36 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 1: up because it still is Miranda's turn. I think that 37 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 1: this is a case where they just need to move 38 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 1: to paper plates. Yeah, I think that's the only good choice. 39 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 2: Bro. This next story is out of Asia. 40 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 1: A Chinese newspaper called Beijing Youth Daily did a story 41 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 1: on how young people in China are paying five dollars 42 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 1: a day to pretend that they have a job. 43 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 2: A wait, why, Yeah, here's the idea behind it. 44 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 1: You go to a shared office, but you don't do 45 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: any actual work.
