Between the two I have maybe seen an hour's worth collectively while I was home due to illness versus being at work. Plenty of real life drama while I was in high school. There were families who changed their name to disassociate with a black sheep relative. Two hot girls who were second cousins running a pretty open family feud in school. Family feuding with another family because the idiot son from one knocked up the idiot daughter from the other. Out in the sticks people would shoot at one another and burn houses down if the hate was strong enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royale with Cheese Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 There are two kinds of people in this world. One kind likes David Lee Roth, the other likes Sammy Haggar. We all know who is in the right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The biggest problem I had was being tarred by my uncle's family in school. Which is to say everybody assumed I was going to act the worst that my cousins did because I had the same surname. One time I had to beg a teacher and a guidance counselor to take a given class because that teacher had a no "smith" policy. Feuding was and is a pretty big deal close to the city as well as out in the country. I know state troopers that will not go into certain areas and certain homes without back up. Better today than 100 years ago when somebody could perform a crime against you and have it go without action because you were not related to 90 percent of the town which consisted of one family. One state trooper friend speculated that a person could go missing indefinitely if it was not reported. The law only cares that you attend school up to age 16 in terms of your whereabouts. Your name could be on the deed to your property and the only thing the law cares about is that the taxes are paid and not who made the payment.
