OK Dad, but let’s make a good thing out of a bad thing
A six-year-old boy playing on his dad’s phone before bedtime spent about $1,000 on Grubhub orders, which his parents didn’t know about until the food started coming to their Chesterfield Township, Mich., home. While his father was giving him a stern lecture on the matter, the boy put his hand up to stop him and said, “Dad, did the pepperoni pizzas come yet?”
AND NOW EVERYBODY HATES HIM: A man faked his death just to see who would attend his funeral.

SURPRISED TO SEE US, ARE YOU, SIR?: Police responded to a call that someone was trying to steal copper wire from an industrial building in Burrell Township., Pa., and followed footprints in the snow leading into a wooded area where they found the burglar and arrested him.
CALM DOWN!? NO, YOU CALM DOWN!: A man tried to buy a small bottle of booze at a liquor store in Linden, N.J., but asked for a discount because he didn’t have enough money.
