A friend of a friend is dating a dude in prison for being a hitman (needless to say she has terrible taste in men and we've told her that many times). He apparently accepted $7k to travel across the country to kill someone then travel again to Mexico to collect the payout, meaning probably like $6k all said and done, and all I can think is that's way less than I ever would have thought one would accept for such a service, especially when I can't even get a second car key included when buying a car for 2-3x that!

You think it's too little because you're not keen on the idea of killing someone in the first place. Would you take the money if instead of murder you just had to go attend a work meeting? Some people treat crimes just as casually as that.

They all think they are so smart and no one will ever find out while leaving traces all over. morons

Why does she date a loser that allowed himself to be catched for years for 6k, ask her. Terrible taste

You don’t date incels of crime but CEOs of crime

Tell her she can date me. I'll commit a sex crime for her ...:)

The fuck makes you think that's an okay thing to say?
