WHAT TO DO [WHEN SOMEONE HARASSES YOU ONLINE]

When most people think about trolls, they picture the creatures from fairytales that live under bridges taunting people as they pass by. And while these trolls are only fictional characters, there are some real-life trolls that behave just like them. In fact, these real-life trolls live in the shadows of cyberspace with the sole purpose of making people’s lives miserable.

I HAVE A NEW STALKER [ONE OF MANY]

Someone going by the alias of “michtypoo” with the IP address of “24.237.30.159” will not quit stalking me. This person claims I’ll be investigated, however, doesn’t say for what charges. They even go on to post links on these articles that either don’t work when you click them, or they don’t have anything incriminating on the page once you click through. I’ve deleted every comment simply because the comments are not constructive criticism, nor do they have anything substantial to contribute to the article, so why should I care if I delete it? Their comments are spammy, misleading, exposing personal info, or just flat out harassment.

ALLEGED FATAL WRECK ON EGAN [BY FRED MEYER]

20190715_172258.jpg
It’s a beautiful day. I’m at work. Things are going great. It’s about that time and I’m heading outdoors. I drive toward Egan and without a second to lose– there’s a Fire and Rescue siren, but no car in sight. Then, suddenly the vehicle is visible and it’s passing me in the turning lane headed towards Downtown Juneau. I get to where I’m headed and I see the lights that passed me flashing on the other side of right where I’m parked. The grass made things too tall to see, so I went inside. When I came out, I took a better look and noticed that there was what appeared to be a car that had been flipped upside down.

I can’t believe what I’m seeing, but I’m a busy man– so I go about my business. I tell other people about what I had seen in order to warn them about anyone complaining about traffic later on in the day, only to learn that it was a female that wrecked and that no others were involved in the wreck. I also learned that a bus then parked itself in both lanes to block anyone from driving through in the double-lanes of Egan Southbound to DoJu in front of Fred Meyer. However, let’s just say that Fred Meyer has earned a reputation of its own around here, and it’s not a great one. Sure, they’ve got great prices. But what else do they got going on in there? Listen to the Sheriff Says Sup podcasts and you’ll see.
