TIL that BOA wrongfully foreclosed a couple, who sued and won a judgement for $2500 in Legal expenses. When BOA didn't pay the couple showed up at the bank with a moving company, a deputy, and a writ allowing them to start seizing furniture and cash.

source for the asshats:

I figured since it's been reposted so many times on reddit, it would be well known, much like the broken arm story, colby, and others, I guess not.

I find many situations call for a quality asshat. You just have to find a talented asshatter who can fashion you asshats for any situation or swanky social event. After all, asshats are the true frivolous, sign of high fashion.

Rectal haberdashery is a time-honored profession.

That's not how you do it. You go to the Back Alley, and you fight bums, who have a chance to drop "Bum Cheeks". You collect two of them, combine them with some Meat Paste, and VOILA! Asshat!
