Stoners stink.

This is unalterable fact.

I know and like many stoners. You can ALWAYS tell.

Also, most piggies are cool.

I also agree that smokers of all types stink. I smell it much more strongly now that I've quit smoking. I used to think that a little cologne & a piece of chewing gum would take away the stench but I now realize that I was just in denial.

I also imagine you'd smell if you swam in denial.

If you're not careful, JLee will jump into his black helicopter, fly to your house, and arrest you!

P.S.
You're a nice enough guy on the forum but I think it's pretty likely that as soon as you step away from the keyboard you become a real ****wit.

Yeah, you probably say things to people like... like that!

Speaking of ****ty cops: (not you, JLee!)

The only nice cop I've ever met was Jlee, and he was off duty and afraid for his life at the time. All I see is stories about them ****ing up or doing **** and getting away with it. I can say it and mean all of them; **** the police.

SARCASM METER IS CONFUSED

That's because rarely is the front page news story "Local police officers pulls over mother of 5 to inform her that her taillights are out" or "local police officer called to domestic dispute, presence of police officer defuses situation resulting in nothing interesting happening".

P.S. I have only met two officers who I truly thought were ********s, and I have met enough cops to fill a decent sized swimming pool. So...think about THAT. A SWIMMING POOL.

Exactly, this stuff is the standard, every-day, boring stuff, that's not going to make the news.

Except it's more like,

"Local police officers pulls over mother of 5 to inform her that her taillights are out, gives her a $100 fix-it ticket, then writes her up for some other bull**** to justify his existence and/or pay for stupid decisions the city council made."

More like Nuh-Uh.

Vote better.

Like, are they all ground up or what?

No, it was just one really fat guy.

Haha, similar to what I was thinking.

Three extremely large sheriff's deputies and a skinny lieutenant. There is no water, only coffee.

Hey JLee you're the worst cop ever!!

i still <3 jlee. (I also still have a Junior Officer sticker that he gave mb to give to me (or mb just gave me his) on my laptop!).


Honestly guys, there's a lot of ********s in the world. If you think that all cops are dicks when they strap on a badge, fine, probably nothing's going to change that fact. But you can't (shouldn't) pass judgement on a whole slew of people just because of their profession (unless their profession is professional ********).

the quota misconception isn't so much about salaries as it is departmental budgets

Read: cop

But seriously, I've never had an major problem with cops. I've been pulled over 4 times. The cops were professional. Didn't get cited any of the four times.

I've encountered police on 3 additional occasions. All three times the cops were absolute dicks. I was breaking no law, and got thrown on the ground on frisked I walked around a corner and bumped into a cop during a big car show in the downtown area of the city. It was quite an accident, I apologized, and he grabbed me and tossed me on the floor. He dug his knee into my back and bruised me up pretty good. It makes me mad that I couldn't hit him back because he was wearing a badge. Anyone else and he would have at least gotten a run for his money. He was a thug, but I'm pretty sure he was just in a pissy mood. No excuse, though.

I guess it depends on which cop, but in general, I don't like them and avoid them as much as possible, on or off duty.

No, because those STILL make the news and the others where it doesn't happen, don't.

Maybe in your boring, slow, little town. The only stuff that makes the news around here involves blood, money, or politics (often all three!).

Boston isn't really slow and boring

You were suggesting (I think) that even the mundane incidents aren't, but I'm insisting they are because you never know about them. And a few anecdotes is no evidence either.

I'm not really sure what we're arguing.

I'm not arguing any particular point, other that what I posted before about not avoiding cops in general.

I just like to argue with Emon.

Hey Brian, your mother is excessive in size and copulates too much.

There's no such thing. Hope springs eternal.

Maybe it's because you were a Mexican.

He was a mexican? What happened?

He got better.

I've had...3 incidents with police officers. One gave me a warning for failing to stop at a stop sign at...11:45 at night on a very quite street. One gave me a speeding ticket only because I blew right by him in kind of a defiant manner. Seriously he had this "are you serious? Really?" look when he gave me the speeding ticket. The third time, I nearly rammed a cop and was given a field sobriety test on the spot. I passed but he didn't give me a breathalyzer which is good because I'm sure I would have blown a 0.09 (It's 0.08).

My track record would indicate I'm increasingly defiant of local and state ordinances.

When did that happen?!

You look way more Mexican than me and I've had several people think I am Mexican

The cop might have also thought so

I'm the tallest, whitest Mexican I've ever met. Except for my brother. He's taller and whiter.

The cop was just a prick.

The surname "Valadez" belies you. I would fathom that Steven doesn't know a lick of Spanish. But yes, he is pretty tall, pretty white, and pretty portly

I got pulled over because a brake light was out. This is an MOT fail and by rights the officer could have demanded I bring my license and insurance documents to the police station within a month.

What happened was this:

Bobby: "Scuse me sir, did you realise your off-side brake light is out?"
Martyn: "No, thanks for telling me - I'll get that fixed in the morning on my way to work"
Bobby: "Good stuff, have a safe journey home"
Martyn: "Thanks, have a good shift"
*Martyn drives away*

Most policemanofficers are normal human beings. Of course there are a load of racist, thuggish planks doing the job, but that's true of any occupation and particularly those involving power and big sticks.

The only bad cops I've ever encountered have been women.

When I was 16 one female cop tried to pick a fight with me. I was with my mom. ****ed up ****.

Whatever you say, Esteban.

I don't know if you're really this ignorant, but I'm going to spell it out for you. If you were drunk enough to almost ram a cop, you should not be driving. Regardless of whether you can pass a field sobriety test or even a breathalyzer. You should not be driving because your decreased awareness and reaction time puts other people in mortal danger. People who drive when impaired are only one step above murderers --- they've made the decision that they care more about their own convenience (driving home vs. taking a cab or bus or asking for a ride from someone else) than the lives of others. The fact that you post it here and poke fun at it indicates that you either really don't understand the possible (and perhaps probable) consequences of driving drunk or you just don't care. Given your somewhat intelligent posts in other threads on this forum, I'm leaning towards the latter. And that sucks.

You would be correct. I'm fully aware of the gravity of being impared behind a wheel and the grave consequences that would follow. You'll be happy to know that incident did put a little fear of God in me. However, I'm probably just as bad 100% sober. I've scared people who were riding with me. Namely I don't let go of the gas pedal.
