William Zeckendorf, Senior, six feet tall, powerfully built and with an unusually large, bald, oval head, often topped by a pale grey homburg, was always overflowing with ideas. His brain was dangerously ingenious and fertile. "If I had been a woman," he once remarked, "I would have been pregnant every nine months."

Incredible... possibly the most large happy and sexually normal description I've ever heard

Buster Moon's Total Sing 2 Crime Counter

And we're back again with Buster's lovely crime spree, this time in Sing 2! The numbers had to be estimated way more here than in Sing 1, mainly cause we have no idea how many people are in the room at any time in the theatre so just roll with it cause I'm lowballing stuff. I'm also not a lawyer so this is about as legally sound as the first one.

Anyways! Let's gooooo

-----

Traffic violations (x3)

Say it with me everyone, waving through traffic on a bike is a traffic violation! Seriously, its like he needs to nearly cause six wrecks within the first five minutes of every film.

Harassment 

Following someone and chasing their vehicle down and then proceeding to talk to them through a car window after they ask you to leave them alone is, not no one's surprise, harassment.

Public Menace

Okay, yes, I'm bringing this back again, but how would you feel if you're driving and in the lane next to you, there's a weird guy on a bike screaming into a taxi window? I, personally, would be fearing for my safety. So I'm adding it.

Trespassing

Grey area because there was no signage we could see but the backstage of where Ash was performing was private property that he likely wasn't supposed to be on so I'm gonna count it.

Trespassing

Buster sneaking around inside the Crystal Tower was trespassing, especially since Karen, the receptionist, insisted he leave previously and said she would call security if he didn't.

Aiding and Abetting the Delinquency of a Minor

Now, since time has passed between the two movies, I'm only gonna count one of the younger teens (Johnny and Meena) as 17 or younger, so take your pick. But, either way, Buster did convince them to trespass in Crystal Tower.

Aiding and Abetting (x5)

And this is for convincing the rest of the troupe to trespass in Crystal Tower.

Breaking and Entering

Buster does proceed to jangle doorhandles and finally find one thats open to break into the backstage of the auditions. Which could count as both breaking and entering or potentially just entering, but still a crime.

Aiding and Abetting (x5)

And then he convinces the rest of the troupe to do the same...

Aiding and Abetting the Delinquency of a Minor

Including at least one kid. Man, Buster loves aiding and abetting charges doesn't he?

Unsafe Working Conditions (x150)

Now I'm not sure just how many people were on set daily at the theatre, as it has to include construction crew, cleaners, dancers, pr agents, the troupe itself, and stage crew, so we're just going with 150 and rolling with it. Buster put them in unsafe working conditions by knowingly lying to Crystal, who was obviously not the safest guy to be around at this point, therefore potentially putting all the employees at risk.

Breach of Contract/Fraud (x13)

Say it with me now, lying in a contract is bad. You are breaking the contract. For example, claiming an employee you do not have as your employee, like say Clay Calloway, is illegal. Doing so over and over again is continuing to commit that crime.

Fraud 

This is more along the lines of lying to the cleaners to get them to not say anything and to help them, therefore withholding essential information from them. And continuing to lie to other employees with the same effect.

Endangerment (x212)

Okay, when he was doing the show, he knew how dangerous Jimmy was. He knew he was willing and able to kill people. He put everyone in that audience and on that stage in danger by doing that performance.

Endangerment of a Minor

And that included at least one kid! We don't know the ages of all the dancers, but I wouldn't be surprised if there was a 17 year old in there. Just be glad I'm not including the piglets.

Final Crime Count for Sing 2: 397 individual crimes!

Buster, I know that's less than Jimmy but still, come on man. You don't need to up your crime total every movie.

In light of HASBRO and other such entities carrying property doing something incredibly fucking stupid and selling off their history and wares, I would like to set up a little idea of hope:

The stupid in question. He's not supposed to be a "try to kill myself" new world sheep, but he's trying his best!

[binch-i-might-be]

in the last episode of House I watched the sentence fragment "and her heart went boom" was uttered and I almost catapulted myself out of the bathtub like "LIKE IN MY FUNNY LITTLE MUSICAL BY MY FUNNY LITTLE MAN?????"

[asexualjedi]

Was like damn there should be an ace dating app for people who are like asexual or gray romantic or gray sexual. And then I went to google that and realized that would involve sharing my information with an app and giving up personal info to people. And I’m reminded of the people I had to block and the issues I’ve had with guys™️ in the past and that makes me want to break out in hives. Like would hopefully ideally be different. But. Alas. I’ll just have to believe in rom communism.

Reading about currency controls in the old days is crazy... like what do you MEAN you need the Bank of England's permission to invest £500,000 in Canadian real estate. Don't they have better things to do.

The real estate properties boom in Andhra Pradesh is a testament to the state’s dynamic growth and forward-looking policies. With continued infrastructural development, economic diversification, and urbanization, the future of the real estate market in Andhra Pradesh looks promising.

So tired of everything being derailed by racists.

Want to talk about jobs? Blame immigrants.

Want to talk about the state of housing? Blame immigrants.

Want to talk about post-secondary education? Blame immigrants.

Want to talk about healthcare? Blame immigrants.

Want to talk about the state of the economy in general? Blame immigrants.

And it's never about the systems in place that lead to immigration or the how companies exploit young workers from elsewhere in the world (by taking advantage of their inexperience, their lack of support network, taking their money, and so on), it's all about how those dastardly non-whites are trying to screw honest Canadians out of everything by taking advantage of us, and they're personally going after you.

You can be talking about something and even be open to talking about the complex issue that is immigration but it immediately gets taken over by THEY TOOK OUR JERBS! assholes.

It's at the point where as soon as immigrants/immigration comes up, I peace out unless I know the person and can expect them to have a point beyond bigotry and fascism.

Because it's never about our systems, decade(s) of neglect, neoliberalism or conservatism, or anything like that, it's about how selfish, rich, and anti-white brown kids are and things would be perfectly fine if not for them.

"You've been hiding a TRAIN this ENTIRE TIME?? My five year old self is going crazy, how could you hide this??" -primeguarded (pls kels loves locamotives, she gets so giddy whenever she hears a whistle)

❝Not easily,❞ Emmett answers, despite knowing that wasn't what @primeguarded meant with her question. ❝The construction of the hangar alone was incredibly time-consuming, not to mention the security measures I installed to ensure that anybody who broke in couldn't make off with either of the time vehicles.❞

The overhead lights in the train's hangar bounce off its polished curves onto the walls, creating an almost splendid light show. Despite its incredibly limited use compared to the DeLorean, Emmett hasn't had the heart to dismantle it.

It's the beginning and the end of a boyhood dream for him. It's the culmination of nearly ten years of work, the start of a brand new life for his family, something that had become almost a legend in the eyes of his boys as they eagerly anticipated its completion, their heads and hearts full of stories of Emmett's past—their distant future, yet soon-to-be present—and a world that sounded almost too fantastical to be real.

He and Clara spent hours tinkering away at it together, sharing coffee on late nights and aches and pains in the mornings and ideas on the drawing board.

No, he can't dismantle it. And not when it serves as perfectly suitable transportation for their trips into the past where the DeLorean, even under holographic disguise, simply won't cut it.

The DeLorean was never designed to hold a family.

Emmett steps around to the side of the train and presses his palm to a scanner. After a moment, an electronic latch clicks and the gullwing door rises at the same time a pair of steps unfurls.

❝Come inside; watch your step. I'll show you the cabin.❞
