The New Joisey Drones are taking over the news cycle. People think they’re aliens, they think they’re our adversaries, and some just think they’re drones that the military is testing out. It’s been a wild couple of weeks in the news. The wildest theory involves a nuke:

Imagine losing a nuke. A fucking nuke. Rule #1 for nukes is don’t lose the fucking nuke. The good news is that report turned out to be fake so I can go back to not caring about the drones.

Instead I can focus on a drone conspiracy that actually matters like this asshole who was hooking up tie dye pods to his and dropping them in pools:

I know it’s the holidays so I’m not trying to end up on Santa’s naughty list, but FUCK THIS GUY. Ruining the neighborhood pool should be a crime punishable by death. I won’t take anything less than a tar and feather in the town square. All I can imagine is some parents who want a break from their kids to read a steamy romance novel or listen to a podcast not being able to take them to a pool because some 31 year old dork was bombing pools with dye via Hayden Mitman at NBC10:

An Atlantic City man turned a drone into a makeshift vandalism bomber, police claim as he is alleged to have repeatedly used a flying device to drop dye packs into pools throughout the region from June through September of last year.

Last week, on Thursday, Dec. 12, 2024, Anthony Spina, 31, of Atlantic City, New Jersey, was indicted by a grand jury on criminal mischief and conspiracy offenses after he, allegedly, flew drones in order to drop dye packs into commercial and residential pools to turn the water in them to a greenish/yellow color.

In instances between Aug. 2 and 15 of 2023, Spina is alleged to have caused more than $2,000 in damages after using a drone to trop dye packs in a pool at a condominium complex in Atlantic City, as well.

If a condo in Atlantic City isn’t already bad enough.
