How can you have a name like that and not have it changed to remove the c and the r? Electra Shock

If I wanted a comment section full of jokes, I wouldn't have left Reddit.

It's a story ripe for joking around with, especially since it's also a subplot of two and a half men.

You could always make your own community. Something like "AnhedonianNews"

Or just block you.

It's celebrity news and he's unharmed. I feel like the jokes are appropriate enough.

They might be appropriate if they were funny.

If I wanted nasal gazing gatekeeping, I wouldn't have left reddit, but I'm not here shitting out my personal opinions about how people express themselves.(oh wait I am and it's super shitty, huh?) Don't like it? Who fucking cares?

"Nasal gazing" says everything anyone needs to know.

Meeeeen! 🎶

This story is Schrocking...

Sounds like Sheen was between a Schrock and a hard place....

Also starring Dwayne "The Schrock" Johnson. A Yiddish wrestler.

There's definitely a lot more to this story. If she's a neighbor of Sheen's, she's not some random deranged fan or anything. This was in Malibu, which is very expensive and was very expensive before this latest real estate crisis. This is a wealthy woman who had some sort of personal issue with Sheen.

I'm not trying to defend her actions or anything, they were obviously inexcusable. I just think this goes beyond 'random crazy person.'

Could very well be a random crazy rich person.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

Poor people are "crazy". Rich people are "eccentric" 😉

The only thing I care about is that her name is Electra Schrock.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I wondered if the weapon was a Taser or cattle prod... But it says "deadly weapon" so maybe it was some kind of custom supervillain lighting gun.⚡

Yes and she was eventually detained when her batteries ran out.

At which point the police were forced to charge her
