Micro plastics in the soil 😠

[–] [email protected] 88 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yes please if you're going to do this be responsible and use a real skeleton.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

It should also be locally sourced

[–] [email protected] 41 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wtf, it belongs into my blood

macro plastics 🀀

[–] [email protected] 44 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This would scar me for life and I’d never recover

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not even once you find out it's plastic?

[–] [email protected] 34 points 1 year ago (4 children)

By the time I’ve called the police (which would feel utterly horrible), and the police have confirmed it was just plastic, I’d be a rattled mess for a long time. (I’m already mildly mentally ill and this would not help)

rattled

Lol, lmao, perhaps

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

It will help.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'd do my very best to see if it was realor plastic before I called the cops, they would probably try to blame you for the murder.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If you find something that looks like human remains hidden in a shallow grave, you really shouldn't go poking around at it and disturbing it. If it is real, the forensic people will be pissed if you've been down there giving it a good fondle before they get there.

I'm less worried about the forensic people at my local PD (They don't have one) and more worried about the very real possibility that no matter what evidence is found, it will get pinned on who found it, because cops in small town Okkahoma are not the same as cops on TV.

EDIT: Also, it's worth mentioning that anyone who has a dog will be able to determine if that's a plastic skeleton or not.

The new owner would report the previous owner to the police

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well, they’d probably just call the police, who would come and find its plastic. Maybe it would stop them from harassing a minority for a minute.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

... unless the new home owner is a minority.

I wonder how this would stand up to water under the deck?

[–] [email protected] 87 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't think it will have enough room to stand up

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

Dad, what are you doing on the internet again?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

As it's probably PVC or abs, it can fall apart in a couple of years when exposed to uv. But as it's covered by the deck, it will probably stay intact for a long time.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Oh yeah, I mostly meant the water washing up the dirt and either completely covering or uncovering it

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago

Hmm. Re-doing my deck right now . . .

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

risky but funi

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

In Germany it's a crime to pretent a crime.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Plot twist: Someone took this opportunity to get rid of a real skeleton by selling it anonymously as a plastic one.
