My friend got pulled over.

[hammocksleeper]

Hey guys. Yesterday my friend was telling me about what happened to him as he was coming home from work. I thought it was pretty crazy so I'll put it up here. On his way home from work, he stopped to fill up his car at the gas station. Well the place was really dirty and not in great shape and as he was putting the nozzle back in the holder, he spilt some gasoline on his shirt sleeve. Not like a huge spill, but he was going to change his shirt when he got home. So he's driving down he highway going home, and his shirt sleeve catches on fire!! What happened was, the sun was bouncing off his side-view mirror and cooking the spot on his shirt that had gasoline on it. Well, it eventually got hot enough on the way home and the shirt ignited and now his arm is on fire! So he rolls down his window and starts flailing his arm around, trying to put it out, all the while trying to get over to the other side of the highway so he can pull over. Suddenly a cop turns on his siren behind him, and motions for him to pull over. Immediately my friend thinks, oh shit was I speeding? But now that he's on the side of the road, he can try and put out his burning arm. Well, the cop walks up alongside his car and my friend asks, "Good afternoon, officer. Can I ask why you pulled me over?" To which the cop replies, "Illegal use of a firearm."

It got a chuckle out of me. Is that a true story? Like, the cop actually said illegal use of a firearm? Because I think that's very classy on the cop's part :).

[Demon_Child]

If I didn't know any better, I would think that the cop had a sense of humor.

[mcflurry_1982]

lmao. did the cop help your friend at all?

[henrywonderchimp]

O.o a cop...with a sense of humor?? no... that can't be

Actually Soldier, according to this little tidbit of info here:

That's a common misconception. :)

In fact, Detective Margaret Bobbitt goes on to elaborate that most police people are at the donut shop for a coffee, a soda etc., but usually not lots of donuts.

There's plenty of nice cops around, i'll tell you one day how a cop did a burnout near my car, :)

Most cops aren't dicks, they're just doing their job. In this case it seems like turning on his siren was one of the best things that could happen for the kid. The other cars got out of the way and the kid was able to pull over. Not half bad. I love the witty retort, too.

[Mordecai2k]

lolol :)

and i agree about the cops thing. i've met many cool cops ^^ they're probably the most likely to be sarcastic or funny on the job

Just watch super troopers ;)

Heh, I got a chuckle. If that's a true story then it's a classic. If it's made up, then it's an ok joke.

[hammocksleeper]

Sorry guys, it's just a joke.

[Graeme]

Sorry guys, it's just a joke.

Oh . .. then I take my chuckle back! No cookies for you!

Sorry guys, it's just a joke.
Damn it! Duddits believed you too.. hehe. You shouldn't have told us that and led us all to believe it was true.
