Up to my eyeballs in work, but I realized I’m much more sane when I spend a little time in here each day.

I thought FB had been blocked at your work?
jenny/tiff/whatever… you need to get a new group of pix… get rid of the grey shirt, the yellow top… and what the heck is that critter crawling out of your arse?
I never quite understood rickrolls.
I love that song, so I have no problem with it suddenly playing. It makes about as much sense as the “Game” people talk about.
OK, I’m incredibly ignorant, I admit. But I’ve been wondering for some time now, this keeps showing up.
What the hell is “Rickrolls”, “Rick Rolled”, and stuff like that? What’s that mean? Is this a TV show or something?
Ah. Well, Brewski, a rickroll is when someone links you to a video, describing it so vividly you desperately want to see it, and when you do, you have been tricked and are shown a music video of Rick Astley’s “Never gonna give you up”, hence the name “Rickroll”.
I had the hardest time explaining rickroll to my hubby – he just kept saying “It’s stupid I don’t get it” and I would say “That’s the point honey. It’s just supposed to be annoying” and he would say “It’s stupid I don’t get it” and I would say “That’s the point honey. It’s just supposed to be annoying” and he would say “It’s stupid I don’t get it” and I would say “That’s the point honey. It’s just supposed to be annoying” and he would say…
Unfortunately no points are scored if the recipient actually loves Rick, which happens ALL the time. I asked my bartender yesterday why he doesn’t do a toe-touch after serving. I keep forgetting to ask where he gets his rad clothes…
I saw this on the voting page, and had mixed feelings about it. Not quite sure it belongs here really, and also not quite sure whether I can post any puns/comments directly related to the fail without feeling guilty.
Technically.. Its a fail.. but its also pretty bad, there’s a line where people getting hurt (like those in the middle of a road getting hit by a speeding police cruiser while in their wheelchairs).
Sorry, But this being posted here on a humour site, is a fail.
Speeding cruiser? It was going like 2 KPH since it had just turned left off of a red light. It also bumped the guy from behind which knocked him out of his chair, it isn’t like he was crushed or something.
D you work for fox news or something? Stop try to sensationalize things, stick to the facts, then you have my permission to whine.
I fail to see the humor in it as well. It’s a very unfortunate accident that resulted in a broken shoulder and hospital time for the victim. And a lawsuit. But I’m not here for the fail.
Not only does he hit the guy in the wheelchair, but he didn’t bother to call an ambulance. When someone is hurt, you shouldn’t move them. Wow, can you imagine the lawsuit. The victim should be living in a mansion by now. With his/her own chauffeur.
Did you watch the video? You can clearly see him keying his radio as he exits his cruiser, one can safely assume he wasn;t calling another cruiser to pick him up some donuts.
Yay! Nice letter, you were from germany, if I recall correctly?
You use those there too?
*proud of few phoneticks used in finland and few other languages*
ÄÖ!
I admit, I don’t get it. But hey – I’m a little drunk right now, so I guess I don’t have to be the usual smartass mofo. I’ll get me another beer, maybe that’ll help me to understand what’s going on (I doubt it, but I’ll try).
Grrr… reading that made me angry.
Why in hell wasn’t the cop cited for failure to yield?! That’s a serious infraction! Talk about covering your ass. I wonder if this was ever resolved.
I’ve known a few cops personally, and think they are good people. But man, there sure are some corrupt departments out there. Boston has been famous for it. They keep getting writeups in the Boston Globe, because they routinely park illegally (in fire zones, handicapped zones, etc), and of course never get ticketed once. They swore to fix it, but did nothing. So the globe did a second story, exposing the failure to correct it. Still they’ve done nothing.
Sure, there a good cops and bad cops (sometimes in the same room ) but here it seems it’s hard to find cops who take responsibility when they fail. When things go wrong they cover each other and the media doesn’t pay too much attention and the politicians always claim the cops did everything right. That is frustrating – and scary. I hope I’ll never be the victim of a police fail that is called a WIN!!!11!! afterwards…
It’s the same way in the US. If the cop did want to take responsibility the department would likely “advise” otherwise. The threat of a lawsuit will do that. Organizations don’t act like compassionate individuals and shouldn’t be granted the same rights.
That’s not just an organization like a bank or whatever. It’s the police, to serve and to protect and whatnot. They should have the highest standards of moral and they should punish bad behaviour of their officers more than those of other citizens. But the opposite is true.
Unfortunately it’s rather: Give several thousand people that much power and you will see many abusing it. Just a couple of months ago a police squad stormed a bar here for no reason other than hostility to the leftist view of the folks who usually visit that bar. Loooots of teargas, one guy lost all of his upper front teeth – and nothing happend. Even though the no-teeth-guy was a journalist and there was a video which didn’t leave any questions. They simply declared that everything was done right – finished. Grrrr.
Is that an oblique reference to a Supreme decision in the making? If corporations are allowed to donate unhindered to campaigns, then us Americans can kiss our voice in government goodbye. That one scares the hell out of me.
Unfortunately I have yet to learn about a cop taking responsibility for misbehaviour. If you have heard about that: Good for you, good to build trust. My experiences with cops were ridiculously often bad.
The only positive experiences I had were when I called them or helped them. Whenever they approach me they don’t treat me too well, even though I always stay polite. It’s like that since I’m 15 or so. You know, 20 years of that can be upsetting…
My sister just had a pretty rough experience that has turned her off of cops. She was at-fault in an auto accident recently, and was being treated as if she did it on purpose. There was some harassment, verified by observers, and she was quite traumatized. Her summation of the experience is that when we are children we are taught that the nice police officers are there to help us when we need it. But that doesn’t seem to be the case when you reach adult-hood. Fortunately I have not had a problem with any myself.
I’ve never had a bad experience, thankfully. But I’m a white male, so that probably helps. The worst I’ve had is revenue-generating police departments that crank out tickets at light speed.
What?! They’ve been watching me all along?! THOUGHT POLICE!!! THOUGHT POLICE!!! THO-THIS COMMENT HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED BY THE MINISTRY OF INFORMATION. KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON.
*panics*
Noo… I mean… YES! I had! It’s been a while, but I had fun back in the days. Ohmygawd, what will now happen to me? What will my mother say?
*sobs*
2nd Fail: Picking up someone after hitting them with your car. They should have had him checked out by EMS first. And the way they hoisted him up… back down… back up… If he wasn’t injured, he should be by now!
When they teach you first aid, the first thing they teach you is to leave injured people where you find them. The only exception is when the victim is in immediate danger. In this case the victim was not in immediate danger as the parked police car would’ve been sufficient to prevent traffic flow.
Aww, I missed you to gorgeous! Work has been busy. I only get a chance to come comment every once in a while. Luckily today I’m procrasting is a little slower.

I had an experience the other day that shows that I need to work on the appearance of health.
I was on my walk (Up to two miles. Woowhatyoucallyourhoo!) and needed to rest. I leaned against a power pole. A lady comes charging up to me to see if I was in need. With the cane, arm in a sling, band aids on the finger tips and less than sprightly pace I must have looked like the sole survivor of a train wreck to her.
Not to sound hateful; but STS, I’ve been lurking on this blog for a GOOD while, long enough to see your arrival and posting up to this point.
I will take this time to come out of the wood work and say “What the HELL are you EVER talking about?”
On Question Time today, the Treasury Secretary Yvette Cooper accused the Conservative leader David Cameron of nepotism. Mrs. Cooper’s husband is Education Secretary Ed Balls. Hypocrite much?
What are they doing hoisting that poor person up without giving them a careful lookover in case there was some serious injury (broken bones, etc.). Particularly since, depending on the person’s reason for being in a wheelchair, they might not be able to feel anything.
For right turns, he analyzes the situation thoroughly by measuring the exact angle and momentum required to get him through, licks his thumb and sticks it out the window to be sure the wind won’t throw him off course, and rewires the traffic light system so that absolutely NO cars/pedestrians will we thereto run in to.
After doing all that for the right turns, he just said “screw it” and flies through left ones.
The sad thing is, the guy that got hit got a ticket while recovering in the hospital(for being in the crosswalk). Not to mention, nothing was done as far as the officer in question.
While I don’t think the vid is funny, it is most definitely a police fail of enormous magnitude.
Cops are so stupid, 50% of the time they take your money for driving too fast, 40% of the time they are stuffing their fat retarded faces, 9% they are beating up their wives, 1% they are catching bad guys. if a cop reads this, good. go f*ck yourself
YOU THINK THATS BAD? WELL HERE IN HONOLULU THIS AHOLE COP TURNS THE CORNER AND RUNS INTO A CUTE ASIAN COLLEGE GIRL ON HER $20 CRAPPY BIKE (SHE WAS IN THE CROSSWALK ON A GREEN LIGHT) SO HE GETS OUT OF HIS PIG CAR AND GIVES HER A TICKET FOR NOT HAVING THE BIKE REGISTERD AND ALITTLE STICKER IT WOULD HAVE COST MORE FOR THE STICKER THAN THE BIKE WAS WORTH also check out the internet to find out about the dumb honolulu cops who where in las vegas for a soft ball tourement caught in a parking lot a a park parked over 2 spaces in a rental van smoking weed and when the vegas cops came they tried to drive and then run away. the cops in florida are punks and inbreed but the hawaii cops are just stupid ALOHA
He meant well (at least I hope he did).
And if not, we can always pretend!
Or not vote
I have to pretend since I can’t see video fails at work. *sigh*
Its a video of a policeman on wheelchair chasing afterpickpockets.
And another policeman pushes the wheelchair, and it falls over.
Thank you!
Well, cause im honest person, ill tell you i was lying (paradox?).
In reality it is much less funny.

In that case, thank you for your eventual honesty.
I can’t even look up “gullible” in the dictionary. My dictionary is in a box somewhere & I don’t know which box.

Thats right. You’ve just been rickrolled by a comment.
I never quite understood rickrolls.
I love that song, so I have no problem with it suddenly playing. It makes about as much sense as the “Game” people talk about.
Oh yeah? Well I just WON the game! HAH! Didn’t expect that one, didja?!
It’s okay!

Uh… Whoops.
There was supposed to be a link to that, but I was too busy winning to put it in.

So, judging by my (somewhat delayed) reaction, yes I expected that.

No, he is keying his radio, probably to let dispatch know he had just drove through an occupied intersection.

Wow that was terrible. I’m tired of these videos that aren’t funny.

Perhaps you should stick with the roleplay hornychat for now.
Roleplay hornychat, check. Too much dissection, check.
*writes notes*
Did you dissect?

Police butt fail.
Not only does he hit the guy in the wheelchair, but he didn’t bother to call an ambulance. When someone is hurt, you shouldn’t move them. Wow, can you imagine the lawsuit. The victim should be living in a mansion by now. With his/her own chauffeur.
Did you watch the video? You can clearly see him keying his radio as he exits his cruiser, one can safely assume he wasn;t calling another cruiser to pick him up some donuts.
No, the other cruiser was supposed to run over the wheelchair guy to finish the job.
…and then get some donuts.
I sure hope he got some Boston creamed pie donuts.

Not heeding the pedestrian crossing signal, but also failing to yield to a pedestrian because his wheelchair is considered a vehicle…..
Cop was probably on his cell phone.
maybe he was popping wheelies?
Grrr… reading that made me angry.
Why in hell wasn’t the cop cited for failure to yield?! That’s a serious infraction! Talk about covering your ass. I wonder if this was ever resolved.
You beat me to it, Brewski. I thought they taught you in driver’s ed to LOOK before you turn…whatever! And yes, this is definitely a case of CYA!
I’ve known a few cops personally, and think they are good people. But man, there sure are some corrupt departments out there. Boston has been famous for it. They keep getting writeups in the Boston Globe, because they routinely park illegally (in fire zones, handicapped zones, etc), and of course never get ticketed once. They swore to fix it, but did nothing. So the globe did a second story, exposing the failure to correct it. Still they’ve done nothing.
Sure, there a good cops and bad cops (sometimes in the same room
) but here it seems it’s hard to find cops who take responsibility when they fail. When things go wrong they cover each other and the media doesn’t pay too much attention and the politicians always claim the cops did everything right. That is frustrating – and scary. I hope I’ll never be the victim of a police fail that is called a WIN!!!11!! afterwards…
It’s the same way in the US. If the cop did want to take responsibility the department would likely “advise” otherwise. The threat of a lawsuit will do that. Organizations don’t act like compassionate individuals and shouldn’t be granted the same rights.
That’s not just an organization like a bank or whatever. It’s the police, to serve and to protect and whatnot. They should have the highest standards of moral and they should punish bad behaviour of their officers more than those of other citizens. But the opposite is true.
Oh, I agree. As an agency that can forcibly take away the rights of the populace, they should act in a manner that is above reproach.
Unfortunately it’s rather: Give several thousand people that much power and you will see many abusing it. Just a couple of months ago a police squad stormed a bar here for no reason other than hostility to the leftist view of the folks who usually visit that bar. Loooots of teargas, one guy lost all of his upper front teeth – and nothing happend. Even though the no-teeth-guy was a journalist and there was a video which didn’t leave any questions. They simply declared that everything was done right – finished. Grrrr.
Is police chief an elected position in Germany? If appointed, who appoints the position?
It varies from Bundesland to Bundesland, but they’re never elected by the public.
Is that an oblique reference to a Supreme decision in the making? If corporations are allowed to donate unhindered to campaigns, then us Americans can kiss our voice in government goodbye. That one scares the hell out of me.
Yes, though I didn’t mean it to be oblique.
Nope. The police don’t always anything. They’re people.
In this case the car stopped with a jerk. Then the jerk got out and he was wearing a badge.
Good point!
Unfortunately I have yet to learn about a cop taking responsibility for misbehaviour. If you have heard about that: Good for you, good to build trust. My experiences with cops were ridiculously often bad.
Hmm. I’m a little surprised to hear that. My personal experiences with the police in the US have been mostly positive…mostly.
The only positive experiences I had were when I called them or helped them. Whenever they approach me they don’t treat me too well, even though I always stay polite. It’s like that since I’m 15 or so. You know, 20 years of that can be upsetting…
My sister just had a pretty rough experience that has turned her off of cops. She was at-fault in an auto accident recently, and was being treated as if she did it on purpose. There was some harassment, verified by observers, and she was quite traumatized. Her summation of the experience is that when we are children we are taught that the nice police officers are there to help us when we need it. But that doesn’t seem to be the case when you reach adult-hood. Fortunately I have not had a problem with any myself.
The things I heard from trustworthy sources are worse than everything I have ever experienced. It’s a shame – I want to trust cops!
I’ve never had a bad experience, thankfully. But I’m a white male, so that probably helps. The worst I’ve had is revenue-generating police departments that crank out tickets at light speed.
aaahhh… so you’ve parked in Cambridge, eh?
Most corrupt group of parking ticket writers on the blessed planet.
A villain is rarely villain in their own eyes.
You seem to know some things about me that I don’t know. Hmm.
Ignore that tiny hole in the wall! It is not a camera!!
I wonder what it’s (not!) filming? Me being law-obedient? Kinda boring…
Oops! I thought that was a glory hole.
You never know who might be watching you. (Scary clicky)
What?! They’ve been watching me all along?! THOUGHT POLICE!!! THOUGHT POLICE!!! THO-THIS COMMENT HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED BY THE MINISTRY OF INFORMATION. KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON.
somebody is watching you…
I was referring to the abusive cop. Not you. Now you’ve peaked my interest. Another hmm.
Oops. I misunderstood that, sorry.
CONFESS!! You’ve been having fun, haven’t you!
*panics*
Noo… I mean… YES! I had! It’s been a while, but I had fun back in the days. Ohmygawd, what will now happen to me? What will my mother say?
*sobs*
Oh, Arthur…
*cries*
I’m sorry mum… Wait, my mom has no tattoo! You almost got me again!
At least, none that you know of.
Damn! Foiled again!
*blinks*
Hammy?
I think he needs a poke, mon.
That’s my name, don’t wear it out – I just had it waxed.
2nd Fail: Picking up someone after hitting them with your car. They should have had him checked out by EMS first. And the way they hoisted him up… back down… back up… If he wasn’t injured, he should be by now!
When they teach you first aid, the first thing they teach you is to leave injured people where you find them. The only exception is when the victim is in immediate danger. In this case the victim was not in immediate danger as the parked police car would’ve been sufficient to prevent traffic flow.
First lesson of emergency medical care: When someone is hit by a car, you should, as quickly as possible, move his spine around a bunch.
Don’t do that, you could put the guy in a wheelchair! Wait a second…..
A whole second?
This cop has the wrong idea about his push bumper.
Right idea, he just used too much power.
Uh, Scotty? I think ya got a potential stalker down there. VVV
maybe the cop is a clown who thought he was driving a bumper car?

I squoze you (partially to remove excess moisture) during the last fail, but then this one started up.
I know you barely know me — but it’s very nice to see you back here!
I could never forget you nightshayde! *big squeeze* Thanks for helping me dry off in the last fail!
How’s everything over a ICHC?
Rather boring at the moment, I’m afraid.
I’m sure it will pick up with the next lol.

Hey, Cuddles! (Assuming that IS your real name.) I guess your a regular then? Well, you don’t really know me, because I just hopped on about a month ago, but I’ll welcome you back anyway.

Leviticus, Brewskie. He ever encourages husbands to stone their wives… now, if he’d only encouraged husbands to get stoned with their wives. …
Why the old-time hebrews had multiple wives I’ll never understand… on some days, 1 seems like 4 too many.
You’d rather have, what, -3 wives?
Wouldn’t that be great? (↑)

Don’t think so, I think squeezing is more of a hobby. And Admiral – say hi to Barack, will you? I mean, it must be him who gives you things to do, considdering you’re an Admiral…

My girlfriend’s dad used to work at the Charmin factory many a year ago. I believe it was in Pennsylvania. He says he got to meet Mr. Whipple one day, when he visited the plant. I have no idea if Mr. Whipple squeezed the Charmin that day or not.

Tasteless. That’s not funny at all. Definitely a fail, but not a funny fail.
Well, you see, Maki Naki, it’s not funny, but it is a fail. I was rather torn, too, but my Fail Peeps let me see that I was being … well … rather too serious. Loosen up a little. Read the rest of the blog. Heck — you might even become a regular. Stranger things have happened.
Fails my mind.
There’s my little sweetykins!

Now, you must tell me: Were you aware that I hijacked your >ZAP!< Dot Org the other day, or were you just toying with me?

Nope. I can’t find it, either. Maybe if you take off your pants.

Hello there!
I had an experience the other day that shows that I need to work on the appearance of health.
I was on my walk (Up to two miles. Woowhatyoucallyourhoo!) and needed to rest. I leaned against a power pole. A lady comes charging up to me to see if I was in need. With the cane, arm in a sling, band aids on the finger tips and less than sprightly pace I must have looked like the sole survivor of a train wreck to her.
Why don’t we work on the ACTUAL health first? Then we can work on the appearance of it.
*gentle squeezes*
I’m so glad you’re doing okay.
I thought this story was going in a different direction when a lady came charging up to your power pole.
I’m glad you’re up and around, coyote.
That one had me holding my sides. Thanks.
I tried to wish you speedy recovery, but the blogmonster ate my post!
Bad blogmonster! BAD!
*smacks blogmonster*
*also wishes Coyote a speedy recovery*
I just posted “Thank-you.” to you and it got ate.
The blogmonster has a weird appetite. I tried to post “Thank-you.” a couple of days ago. No way.
You’re a dancin’ man and you just can’t lose.
*squeeze*
You’ve never seen me try to dance.
Actually, due to stealing WN:s >ZAP!< Dot Org, and Ms B renaming me due to killing an punrun, i've lost my name!
Sorry, no, but I’ll keep an eye out for crows!
Any distinguishing features?
You should try to keep a handle on your handle.
And a grip on your grip.
Speaking of which…
…want a sandwich?
Always.
Ooh. Make me one, too?
Not to sound hateful; but STS, I’ve been lurking on this blog for a GOOD while, long enough to see your arrival and posting up to this point.
I will take this time to come out of the wood work and say “What the HELL are you EVER talking about?”
Sir, You have a valid opinion. However, it does seem hateful and we don’t take kindly to that around here.
Also, whenever I just look at your name I
Really? I sort of
like that. I stick my tongue out whenever I laugh. Yeah. Trust me, it’s not as weird as you think. Right?
Whoopsie daisy. That Texas Ranger bit must have carried over from yesterday.
Pit Maneuver: You’re doing it wrong!
That guy was kersed.
Was this rehearsed?
For knowledge he did thirst.
That was the worst.
No, “FIRST” is the worst
For dinner I’ll make bratwurst.
Careful, throwing that word around may get you hearsed.
That’s not a condition easily reversed.
Not reversed, but widely dispersed.
What about to the point that it will burst?
You shouldn’t need the pit maneuver to pass somebody in a wheelchair.
Stop doing that while I’m driving n…*crashs*
Now you did it!

OT-
On Question Time today, the Treasury Secretary Yvette Cooper accused the Conservative leader David Cameron of nepotism. Mrs. Cooper’s husband is Education Secretary Ed Balls. Hypocrite much?
Sounds like Mrs. Cooper has a lot of balls.
hey all whats coming down besides the person in the wheelchair?
…
This:
What are they doing hoisting that poor person up without giving them a careful lookover in case there was some serious injury (broken bones, etc.). Particularly since, depending on the person’s reason for being in a wheelchair, they might not be able to feel anything.
DOUBLE FAIL!
And he just stops in the intersection……….FAIL
Warning this cop makes blind left turns.
What about right?
For right turns, he analyzes the situation thoroughly by measuring the exact angle and momentum required to get him through, licks his thumb and sticks it out the window to be sure the wind won’t throw him off course, and rewires the traffic light system so that absolutely NO cars/pedestrians will we thereto run in to.
After doing all that for the right turns, he just said “screw it” and flies through left ones.
*sigh* Isn’t it a terrible feeling to see a mistake in a post JUST after you hit “Add Comment”?
*Wedges there and to apart*
WTF!!!!

And they say that Women can’t drive. Dumbass Policeman.
um… does he get a ticket? O_O
Yes, the cop gave him a ticket in the hospital.
Lol, this is sad, they even uploaded to internet,… lol that weelchair dude got owned
And that cop made my dream come true.. hit a weelchair guy ;D
i think this video are not good to play here, this site for just fun. because this video are accidentally hurt the handicap man.
That should give him a 1000 points.
cops sucks……idiots……
It’s America, nufsaid
I can just imagine the wheel-chaired person yelling “I can’t feel my legs, I can’t feel my legs!”
IM AMAZED THAT POLICE DIDN’T TAZE THAT GUY!
protected and SERVED, son. BOOM!
The sad thing is, the guy that got hit got a ticket while recovering in the hospital(for being in the crosswalk). Not to mention, nothing was done as far as the officer in question.
While I don’t think the vid is funny, it is most definitely a police fail of enormous magnitude.
Cops are so stupid, 50% of the time they take your money for driving too fast, 40% of the time they are stuffing their fat retarded faces, 9% they are beating up their wives, 1% they are catching bad guys. if a cop reads this, good. go f*ck yourself
it’s alright, the guy was a terrorist!
Considering it was the USA, the cripple is lucky the cop didn’t tazer him for scratching the car.
Wheelchairs count as vehicles…the policeman had the right away
Hmmm…I think you mean the “right of way”. “right away” = “now”
YOU THINK THATS BAD? WELL HERE IN HONOLULU THIS AHOLE COP TURNS THE CORNER AND RUNS INTO A CUTE ASIAN COLLEGE GIRL ON HER $20 CRAPPY BIKE (SHE WAS IN THE CROSSWALK ON A GREEN LIGHT) SO HE GETS OUT OF HIS PIG CAR AND GIVES HER A TICKET FOR NOT HAVING THE BIKE REGISTERD AND ALITTLE STICKER IT WOULD HAVE COST MORE FOR THE STICKER THAN THE BIKE WAS WORTH also check out the internet to find out about the dumb honolulu cops who where in las vegas for a soft ball tourement caught in a parking lot a a park parked over 2 spaces in a rental van smoking weed and when the vegas cops came they tried to drive and then run away. the cops in florida are punks and inbreed but the hawaii cops are just stupid ALOHA
