One constant in the universe is Allie in a relationship needs to be the boss. And don't lie, admit the fact you like that role.

SPEAKER_03

I do like that role and I am the boss of that relationship. I'm fake.

SPEAKER_02

I mean, it's not that you really, I mean, I know therapists would tell you that's not the way it's supposed to go. But with Ellie, it is. And it's okay because, you know, I'm not saying that your guy is um He's just so sweet. He's so sweet. I'm not saying he's weak and willing to, but I think that's He doesn't like confrontation, I can tell you that much.

SPEAKER_03

Well, hates it.

SPEAKER_02

But but I can all well that's there you go. Now the Vipers figured out their prey.

SPEAKER_03

And you know it's He even told me the other day he's like, I can't tell you no. I'm like, I know he's scared, but that's all right. Scared. What? Uh so either way. Do you think I walk in the door and I'm like I mean, you know.

SPEAKER_02

Do you do the old belt snap? Remember the old your dab or do the snap snap snap.

SPEAKER_03

Oh my gosh, yes.

SPEAKER_02

Oh my god, the loudest thing in the world.

SPEAKER_03

And he's like, oh my god, that's coming. That's the scariest thing in the world.

SPEAKER_02

All right, this TikToker shares an unconventional solution to keeping uh a boyfriend uh in line in check, if you will. Give it to me.

SPEAKER_01

One time my ex was yelling at me for like two hours and I couldn't take it anymore. So I walked down to the local cemetery, he followed me there, and I fully pretended like I was getting possessed. And this six foot two man, fully yadded out, was hunched over my body, going, I'm sorry. Get this ghost out of you. So if they don't listen the first time, just spook them.

SPEAKER_03

Just spook them. Spook them. That's great. What a genius idea. Also, he was yelling at you for two hours. Oh, God. Get rid of him.

SPEAKER_02

Well, yes, that's I mean, there's that. All right, now I take you to Pennsylvania. We're really not far, but I take you to Pennsylvania. And uh a man turned into a literal home wrecker. So it turns out that his wife's like, yeah, I think it's uh I think it's over. We're gonna get divorced. So what did he do? Started tearing down the house with an excavator.

SPEAKER_00

You never know what people are thinking today. It's an unfortunate incident, I will say, for all involved. And you know, hopefully it's an isolated incident. There's no other ones in the future. His wife and two children weren't in the home. Weren't when he started to demolish the home. Prior to the officers getting on scene, they were notified that he had fled in a vehicle. Officers had reached out via phone, and later in the day, around one o'clock, he did turn himself into our department.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, now wait a minute. I got a question on this. Is this a crime? Okay, now but now hold on a second. Obviously, the guy's reaction hearing from his wife, the marriage is over.

SPEAKER_03

Love makes you snap, doesn't it?

SPEAKER_02

Well, it it can. Thank God there was nobody in the home. No kids, no wife, no nothing.

SPEAKER_03

Um Ray, did you hear that sigh of relief that I had? Because I was like, oh my gosh.

SPEAKER_02

Well, it would have been it would have been a crime if if that happened. Not just a crime of passion, but a crime. Yes. Is this a crime? I mean, I want you to think about something for a second. You built the home together, and she's now told you that marriage is over.

SPEAKER_03

I mean Doesn't it come down to whose name is on the deed? Okay. Okay, and also the stuff in the house, though, too.

SPEAKER_02

Well, let's for the sake of argument say the the title's just in his name.

SPEAKER_03

Then I don't Well, I'm not sure because at first I'm thinking then it's not a crime, but there's still the stuff that I paid for that's in there that well, it's covered by insurance, so who cares? Well, right.

SPEAKER_02

No, no, I don't think it would be. Not if you uh ripped it down yourself. I think insurance would be like uh probably not. But then the guy could also legally argue, hey, bad business deal on your part. Uh I'm the one that owns the home, so anything in it is mine. Yes.

SPEAKER_03

Um but this being said, other than the fact too.

SPEAKER_02

Well, that's a factual argument. I mean, you know, look, other than the fact that the guy's reaction was way over the top. What is the crime? Is there an actual crime? You own the house, it's your property. Right. I don't know. If the marriage is over and you want to rip down the house, I mean that's the ultimate. Let's if forget a bonfire to burn their stuff, just rip down the second floor.

SPEAKER_03

The only crime that I could think of is you know how you always have to have a permit for everything, even to have a lemonade stand. Did he ever did he have a permit?

SPEAKER_02

Okay. I mean, is that the that's what they're gonna get him on? They're gonna take him into court and be like, well, you didn't have a permit to demo your house.

SPEAKER_03

Right. I well that's that's what I'm saying. I don't know.

SPEAKER_02

I'm kinda like, here's the $500. Now get away from me because I don't want to be with the cheating woman. I just don't think now I've made her a cheater.

SPEAKER_03

Right, right, right. I I don't think it is a crime. And it's weird how you can can't you like kind of understand it in a weird way? Yes. Because I mean, you've had people leave your life. Sure. And when they left your life, then you're in this house, you're by yourself. Well, maybe I mean you have kids, but you know, and and you're like, oh my gosh, all my memories are here. How do I get rid of them? Sure. So it's odd that I'm like, I kind of get you, bro.

SPEAKER_02

I I do it's extreme. And and obviously I'm gonna.

SPEAKER_03

Especially because that's where your kids live.

SPEAKER_02

Well well, right. I'm gonna also bet that anger management classes should be in his future, but still no crime. But well, that's my question, other than a permit from the town or the county or whatever. What is the crime? It's your house. I mean, if I want to pay some paint my house pink polka dots, my neighbors might hate it, but it's my house.

SPEAKER_03

Right, exactly. I don't think there is one. Okay. Well maybe somebody can clarify.
