Part I
I thought I'd start off thread number 2 with a sad story... It involves the death of my beloved bongzilla, a clean, double chambered glass beauty of a bong, and the first one i bought.
Here goes the story...
My brother decides to have his 16th party at the house this weekend. So some of his friends ask if they can use my double chamber glass bongzilla. I say sure! no problem. I'm then informed later on in the night that they have broken it. I ask one guy who did it, they all point to this one person. I ask him what he did, he says he's not going to do anything, or even pay me back.
What does someone do in this situation? My brother maintains that it's my fault that this happened, that I am the one to blame for lending them my property.
I think its up to the guy who broke it to pay for it. I mean, he was at MY house and he broke MY property. Isn't that fair? John, my little brother, who hardly ever sees eye-to-eye with me says he wont do anything about it, he'll ask the guy and thats it.
What should I do? If you all think I should make him pay for it, how should I do it?
Ps. Please remeber that this is not the movies, so I can't go around there with a bat and hit him. Also, if you have no concept of the value of a bong, think of something that was yours and someone came around and broke it...what would you do?
As for tangents. How can you prove that anything exists beyond your own sphere of influence?
