When I was a kid, we had this one guy whose entire property was a heavily forested "compound?". He had a sign saying beware of traps at the edge of it. He was always very weird but kept to himself. One day apparently, he had like his only friend come over, excused himself, and then ate a .38. Turned out he wasn't lying about the traps. It took cops and medical a while to navigate what I vaguely remember were Vietcong style traps. Still to this day have no idea what his deal was.
Everyone knows a Brian Griffin in real life, but do you know a Dale Gribble?
