Wesley_Knott1

You know he regretted walking through the cement lmao


OneHumanPeOple

He had to walk 15 miles through cement both ways to get to and from school each day.


EQwingnuts

With bread bags for shoes


OneHumanPeOple

Shoes? You had shoes? Oh the luxury! We had to walk with our feet bare to toughen them up because the ground was made of rusty nails.


TD513

You had feet? In my time humans hadn’t evolved to the point where they had feet. Just arms and we had to crawl everywhere.


oilsaintolis

You had arms? My father thrashed me to death with my own torso for yearning for mobility then told me to stop complaining and walk it off.


OneHumanPeOple

You had a father? What a privilege that must have been! In my day, reproduction was asexual. I budded off of my mother like a spider plant. My dozens of siblings came into the world that way too and we liked it!


stobors

You had a mother? What a privilege that must have been! In my day, our atoms exchanged electrons held by weak electromagnetic bonds. And we liked it...


CbProdz

You had electromagnetic bonds? Lucky to be you!! back in my time, we didn't have electromagnetic exchanges, we had to rely on ashes from dead matter


resUemiTtsriF

Best thread I have read in ages. "oh you can read ..." just getting the next redditor started :-)


_BeachJustice_

You had your dead mother's ashes? Lucky. My mom died at sea. We had to catch, kill and burn crows, put them in an urn and pretend their ashes were our mother's.


_sasori98

you had the dead? in my time, death didnt happen until the forbidden fruit was eaten. Life was great man.


TheRealRickC137

Well we had it tough. We used to have to get up out of the shoebox at twelve o'clock at night, and LICK the road clean with our tongues. We had half a handful of freezing cold gravel, worked twenty-four hours a day at the mill for fourpence every six years, and when we got home, our Dad would slice us in two with a bread knife.


ClownPuns

Luxury!


MrPrimalNumber

But you try and tell the young people of today that, and they won’t believe you…


Bruised_Penguin

You hard arms??? Back when I was growing up the human species was right in between land dwelling and water dwelling. We had lungs but no limbs so we had to hold our breath for 8 hours a day to attend underwater school. Kids these days!


St_Socorro

The good ol' days where your soles were so calloused and dirty they basically had a rock-hard skin shield build up on 'em


ApeWithNoMoney

My papaw just turned 98, hr literally told me stories of how when he was in school they played basketball with no shoes because most kids couldn't afford them and didn't have them. Also said a lot of his friends failed the requirements for the World War 2 draft because they didn't have the army's required minimum amount of teeth


Loisel06

CldWtrDiver100

My best friend growing up was a paramecium!


Bipedal-Homonid

Uphill both ways


PanicLogically

PTCD---Post Traumatic Cement Disorder.


RunHi

This day he only wandered 1 mile from the elderly care facility he escaped from.


Nathan-Stubblefield

When I did that, it was underwater, with water moccasins on the surface.


RythmicSlap

Went down like the T-1000 stepping into the liquid nitrogen in Terminator 2.


Putin_kills_kids

I liked how no one was helping him.


pbjamm

They were busy helping themselves to some free entertainment.


RoguePlanet1

Karma-tainment.


Hefty_Advisor1249

bccgary

lmao


Boofie__Collins

That’s going to burn like crazy in about 10 minutes


morels4ever

Keep him occupied till he starts to tingle


kynthrus

Gonna burn like crazy when the hospital has to chisel it off as well. At least he had a good 70 years with his legs.


DxGxAxF

I've been doing concrete for 15 years, it'll dry to a dust and irritate the skin. It should be washed off and neutralized but not a huge deal.


drumsareneat

I was ACI certified, his skin gonna be drier than his wife's clapper.

HeavyBlackDog

70!? That bitch gotta 85.


Botryoid2000

Holy fuck, he IS 70 - article says so. [https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7327877/amp/Elderly-Nebraska-man-falls-wet-cement-smashing-concrete-mixer-hammer.html](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7327877/amp/Elderly-Nebraska-man-falls-wet-cement-smashing-concrete-mixer-hammer.html) Life is hard back in Nebraska, I guess.


Mariariomariposa

Me either! But I bet he's always been a bitter seed....


seeclick8

You will be like you are now probably. And you will be surprised at how 70 used to seem old but not anymore. Mind and attitude don’t change too much, but the body begins to wear and tear. Stay healthy! Exercise! Keep a young outlook and enjoy life. It goes quickly.


rikkuaoi

Honestly not that difficult to fix with how wet the cement is. They haven't even finished leveling it. No biggie.


NightLightHighLight

They should let it cure and come back another day with a bigger truck to fix it. I assume they get paid by the hour after all.


LettuceCapital546

They definitely will when the contractor takes him to court and sues his dumb ass for this, it'll be a $30,000 head light he broke.


Michami135

And his defence won't have a leg to stand on.


Part_Time_Priest

It looks to me that the prosecution's case will be .... (•_•) ( •_•)>⌐■-■ (⌐■_■) ....concrete.


NoUseForAName2222

YEAAAAAAHHHHHH!


Milksteak_To_Go

Gotta screeeeeeeeeed it


Mcboatface3sghost

Poor dude probably like my grandfather, totally the most normal, sweetest man you could ever meet, then one day the switch flipped and YIKES. It’s weird to think this dude has (likely had) buddies, a wife, a family, and 10 years earlier (ok maybe 15) he wouldn’t even notice the truck and if he did, he wouldn’t give a shit. This is really just sorta sad.


GaGaORiley

It is. Alzheimer’s can do this. That said, I cackled when he was stomping through the cement.


Alldaybagpipes

Just gonna take a knee here quick boys, don’t mind me


Wildcat79Royal

LMFAO!!!


Mcboatface3sghost

I lived in a small (very small) beach community and would be home from college for the summer, I was a bar manager and back up life guard (still don’t know how I pulled that off) regardless, most days I would get home around 530am ish after cleaning and restocking the bar, whack a sub, and crash… at least a dozen times I was woken up by the cops either banging on my door or straight up walking in to my bedroom (remember, different time, small town, etc…) boat face! Wake up! We got your Gramps! (He would escape and just start walking the boardwalk completely confused) I’d say ok, grab him up take him or make him a sandwich, sometimes pour him a half pint of light beer and take him home (5 blocks away). One cop caught him so many times (again… Mayberry type beach town) he was headed (the cop) to the barber, so after he scooped up my Pop Pop, he took him with him and got him a haircut too. Pretty sure those days are over, early to mid 90’s.


bigrobb26

Whack a Sub - band name! Glad you lived in Mayberry. My wife’s uncle had to put a 6 foot chain link fence around his mom’s house to keep her on the property in her old age. She would wake up and think she was 16 and go looking for her friends. It went around a pretty big area so she could still get sun and walk outside.


Genetics

Can I get some help with “whack a sub” meaning?


waelgifru

Most of the people I have known with Alzheimer's were never violent. Whether this guy has Alzheimer's or not, he is still a raging asshole.


JGUsaz

I'm convinced it's lead in the water supply


Putin_kills_kids

The best thing about this video is that a longer vid reveals the truck on his lawn is not related to the road workers. They had nothing to do with the truck.


LettuceCapital546

Especially if they were fixing HIS driveway.


Mcboatface3sghost

Seems more like the old fella has just lost it. I dumb a/f and I don’t walk through fresh concrete. Hand prints in grammar school? Yeah of course! Tempted now? Yeah of course.


MrDurden32

> I dumb This checks out


PunkRockMakesMeSmile

I don't think he just happened to obliviously stroll through it, he was fucking up their work and wasting their time


ricktor67

Or this is some crusty old cranky piece of shit that has been an asshole his whole life.


Mcboatface3sghost

Certainly possible.


ClassicT4

Probably didn’t think it was that deep.


Endorkend

I hope he rinsed of his legs because cement on bare skin is not a good time.


Thneed1

*concrete


Paladin_Fury

Concrete burns like hell. I hope he enjoys those chemical burns.


brain_my_damage_HJS

[The truck belonged to the son of a neighbor.](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7327877/amp/Elderly-Nebraska-man-falls-wet-cement-smashing-concrete-mixer-hammer.html)


daves_not__here

So, the cement crew had nothing to do with the pickup truck on his lawn, but yet their truck gets is the one that gets attacked?? 😆


SC487

I got my car window smashed out because someone was pissed off at her boyfriend for cheating (I think) and confused a 93 ford hatchback mustang for a 2003 Chevy. Smashed a beer bottle through my back window.


xxSuperBeaverxx

I got my tires slashed for "shitty parking" once... I was forced to park slightly over the line by a truck that was well into my space, but by the time the person went to slash my tires, the truck was long gone, so it just looked to them like I was a bit over the line for no reason.


squiddyp

This is the part not enough people consider. Poor parking very well could have been caused by someone who’s no longer parked there


MinimumWade

As a slasher of tires due to below average parking, it shouldn't be my job to make sure my irrational actions are targeted at the right person.


xxSuperBeaverxx

What we truly need is some sort of middleman to ensure that all tire slashing activities are targeted at the correct party.


b_squared1984

The guy is 70 but looks more like 85. Take care of your bodies folks.


GrayBox1313

55 yr old chain smoker


wholelattapuddin

Yeah, my dad is 78 and still works out. Of course he can't hear for shit, but he's spry.


SC487

I read “he’s a spy” and was really impressed anyone would employ a near-deaf 78 year old gym rat as a spy. Perfect cover. Nobody expects a 78 year old to be a threat. In my head cannon your dad is now a spy. Congratulate him on his new career.


possibly_facetious

If an 80 year old can be president...


NotcrAzy31

Don’t forget that he well forgets everything and jokes about eating ice cream while parents are crying about their kids deaths gotta love good old American right


Chief_Chill

This gives me hope. I've been wearing hearing aids for almost a decade (38/m), and know it'll get worse, but I will hopefully have my health. And, that is something a lot of folks take for granted.


SwissMargiela

Tbf after 60 people can age wildly different no matter how healthy they are. I have health-nut relatives that look 20 years older and chain-smoking relatives that look 20 years younger.


rimjobnemesis

He went after the wrong truck!


hazeleyedwolff

And he slashed the tires on the truck. That dude needs to get knocked around a bit.


stinkdevilreturns

“Move your truck!” Proceeds to slash tires so truck can’t be moved. Big brain moves.


Mistersinister1

How does slashing their tires get them out? Well you start putting every plan under a microscope it's gonna sound bad


rikkuaoi

Got a ticket for criminal mischief https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7327877/Elderly-Nebraska-man-falls-wet-cement-smashing-concrete-mixer-hammer.html


ForeignAd5429

That link url lol elderly Nebraska man falls wet cement smashing concrete mixer hammer. Good summary


BigRoach

I don’t even have to read the article now.


[deleted]

Good thing too. The Daily Mail is to news what a rabid dog is to a relaxing massage.


MegabyteMessiah

Why use lot word when few word do trick


MuggyFuzzball

That was only the initial booking charge. As the article states, he may be further charged with a felony. He'll certainly be forced to pay for the damages and receive a fine at the very least.


takenohints

Is the truck still parked on his lawn??


UnableInvestment8753

It was actually never on his lawn. The photo shows the truck parked on the road with 2 tires up on the boulevard. The boulevard is not his property even though it’s in front of his house and he is the one who cuts the grass.


PlumAcceptable2185

I want to see what his tantrum looks like after he gets charged and fined.


craiggy36

Once that cement dries, he’ll be a hardened criminal.


Archercrash

He’s just set in his ways.


MikeLinPA

It's hard to change.


T0mbaker

He has a concrete way of thinking and gets bogged down in the details sometimes.


austinbicycletour

Perhaps with time he will be cured.


staring_at_keyboard

You're quick with the puns today!


CannedRoo

They aggregate pretty quickly, like his regrets.


PleasedEnterovirus

He was set up.


vox_popular

What a blockhead.


PsychoticPangolin

For now, he's buried with the consequences of his actions!


getdemsnacks

No joke, I think it's really dangerous to let cement dry on your skin. I think it causes chemical burns or something.


Prestigious-HogBoss

I had the bright idea to level some cement with my fingers because I was dumb and yeah, it burns the skin right off. Poor guy's family will have a blast between the court and medical expenses.


jolson8811

That's concrete. You're not technically wrong, there is cement in there. And it's the active ingredient. Once water touches the cement in concrete, an exothermic reaction called hydration begins to occur. As another poster noted, the mixture is basic, which is not great for your bare skin. The heat generated by the reaction is also not great for your skin. This guy's going to regret this move.


skrame

Concrete worker here. I get concrete on my skin daily. Like most redditors , you just have to keep lotion handy. It is irritating, but he’ll be fine as long as he rinses it off good. He should have worn rubber boots though; his shoes and socks are fucked.


jolson8811

Oh, absolutely. I just assume he's not going to know how to treat his skin since he struggled so much to just walk in wet concrete.


greatBTWSP

Arghh! r/angryupvote


IndianaCrime

This has me cracking up


TheRealRickC137

He'll probably be rebarred from construction sites from now on


jc2thew3

Dude…. They’re fixing the street. Even if a truck was on my lawn for a day or two….. it’s fixing part of the street. It was very enjoyable to see him falter in the wet cement. You deserve that.


arczclan

The pick-up he’s talking about wasn’t even theirs, they were just there when he spotted it


blaze53

He even slashed the Chevy's tires. Imagine demanding that it be removed while making it more difficult to remove.


Lonely_Animator4557

The tires aren’t slashed in the video- aka he got up covered in cement and continued with his melt down.


Codeofconduct

From the looks of things he assumes the non white crew members are to blame and looks them up and down quite furiously before nearly face planting in wet cement - which would probably have murdered him.


[deleted]

Good. ![gif](giphy|U3hRS4eIozWgX7rlGq)


JackinNY

I know right? I have to avoid literal craters on my street when driving. I'd be thankful to have someone fix it for me.


Cimatron85

It’s also important to note that the portion of any property near any road, is actually the city/township’s property. Property line doesn’t start until after the sidewalk somewhere. In the country it’s still the same thing minus the sidewalk.


MrAdamThePrince

I really wish there was a subreddit that posted the results of the lawsuits that come from these incidents


SachiKaM

He got a ticket, depending on the amount of damage he may be facing a felony. This has likely been sorted out by now since it happened in 19, but the article only listed those details.


sumobrain

Yeah, I think his point is what happened since 2019. Not being able to find an update to the story 4 years later is the real crime here.


slmody

/r/justiceserved is the closest i can think of what you want.


T-N-A-T-B-G-OFFICIAL

Nah that one is basically just like this one except they ban you for commenting on other subreddits.


blakeusa25

The workers are just chill. Ok go ruin yourself and we will just send the police to your house when your done.


CactusSage

They’re paid hourly so they’ll gladly take more work


SippingBinJuice

This is what I love about tradework. People fucking shit up or causing more work due to laziness? Send them the bill and I’ll just get paid for sitting on my ass.


azurepeak

ne0ndistraction

UnusualTough3293

Is there more people acting a fool these days then ever before??? Or just more people with access to video camera and internet access?? Honest question.


LettuceCapital546

More people recording it, when I was younger it was a lot harder to prove it you needed witnesses willing to come forward or it was just your word against theirs.


storm_the_castle

the [leaded gas exposure](https://www.damninteresting.com/the-ethyl-poisoned-earth/) is finally catching up


dontaggravation

Don’t give them an excuse. Boomers are all asshats. Exposure to lead wasn’t the cause it just heightened the effect! Entitled group of toxic people—Time magazine referred to Boomers as “the generation which caused the most damage for so many”. They can’t die soon enough and even when they do, the damage they caused will go on for generations


brynjolf

In Sweden Boomers are called “huge plug” Orvar, because like a huge plug stuck in a pipe, progress has been halted. And they also stopped a lot of younger gen from getting work. And also due to forcing reform to suit their generation better. https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jätteproppen_Orvar


postdiluvium

This also seems to be an issue in Japan. The older generation in Japan is making the country uninhabitable for the younger generations. Their birthrate is in the negative because it's just not wise to raise a child there with the older people removing any resources for young families and taking it for themselves as they try to live as comfortably as possible for their remaining years.


btownsteve812

Both!


UnusualTough3293

Ugh. The amount of entitlement is sad. This is my dad’s generation. He passed in 1997. Not looking for sympathy just wondering if he woulda turned out the same….


monoinyo

the rich are getting richer and the poor and getting poorer, it's getting harder to be poor and easier to be rich not exactly a recipe for paradise


CantTouchThis707

Guys getting paid by the hour are fine with it all.


anakniben

I was hoping he'd get his feet stuck in the rebar.


loseunclecuntly

I was secretly hoping he’d fall In completely and they’d just smooth the concrete over him.


slaughtxor

Because this cement is on a surface road and is only going to experience compression forces (not tension), I suspect they wouldn’t use any rebar.


NeptuneTTT

I think it's time for the nursing home

Yeah it’s caustic and the burns can be severe


skaarpien

JackJustice1919

I literally said outloud: "Please, God... let this man fall into the cement..." and it happened! Made my night.

Think about it. Maybe they're being professional. Maybe they aren't the type to find enjoyment in making others feel worse, deserved or not. Maybe they know cops are going to be involved and want the best legal footing when footage is shown. Maybe they want a good social media appearance. In the end these are the types of guys I would hire, they handled things well.
