pail Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 'Das right. This guy. <----- After a long and grueling day to cap off a long and grueling week at work, I went to the bank to cash my check. Since every girl crazy for a sharpdressed man and a fat wallet decided to mozy on over to the gas station. There I picked up a drink and a scratch ticket. I walked back to my car, turned it over and let the AC get to work cooling off the cabin. Lastly, I made sure to lock all my cabin doors (just something I do when I'm just sitting in my car idling in public places); now, in hindsight, that one small, seemingly insignificant action is probably led to the proceeding events. The last thing I remember is popping open my soda and starting out on my scratcher. Next thing I know there's a cop rapping on my window and shining his torch in my face. Confused and acting on instinct I roll down my window and shut the car off. The cop asks for my license and explains that the store clerks had been worried about me because apparently I had been sleeping in my running car for the past two hours, so they called the cops. It was at this point I realized the clock, and in my rearview I could see 3 cop cars total, a fire truck and an ambulance. I apologized to the cop, explained my situation and like he understood. He asked me to step out so the paramedic could be perform some basic physical and mental tests. Afterwards he said everything checked out and the cop said I was free to leave. I apologized profusely for wasting everyone's time but the cop just kind of shrugged it off. Probably wasn't his first encounter with a weird, misunderstanding like that. Even though it was a strange situation, and everything worked out in the end I still feel embarrassed and ashamed. Also I can't stop wondering just how much time and money I made hardworking citizens waste because I accidentally fell asleep in my car outside a gas station. Hopefully that never happens again.
André Toulon Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 I'll admit. Not sure where you're going with this one. Is this bait to get people to slam you about you worsening opiate nods......Is this a setup for people to tell you how this would have played out differently had you not been white. Or is this a combo troll....What's the endgame here.

Like I said, one second I was drinking a soda and starting to play a scratcher next thing I know the police were there. I just instantly fell asleep. Then the cop was there.

scoobdog Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 Sounds like the perfect end to a day in the pathetic existence of Bucket. Thankfully you're not black, because you would probably be dead.

stilgar Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 Did you pretend you were your father so you could collect his social security money?
pail Posted October 8, 2017 Author Posted October 8, 2017 Did you pretend you were your father so you could collect his social security money? No I just fell asleep in my car for a couple hours. By the time the civil servants showed up to perform a wellness check I'd had enough of a nap to function properly. Like I said theEMT cleared me, the cop gave me back my license, said I was good to go and let me drive home.

pail Posted October 8, 2017 Author Posted October 8, 2017 Without the weirdness or amusement. Go play in traffic. I'm not in the mood for your snark. Say that dumb shit to my face and I'll tip the cops off about a man sleeping in a parking lot
Rogue_Alphonse Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 I had a similar thing happen but no cops and not as long of a time. Pulled up to a red light behind a flatbed tractor trailer, waiting for the light to change... clutch pressed in, still in first gear. Suddenly I wake up to a slight bump.... I had drifted off and the truck had slowly drifted forward into the back of the flatbed. I was asleep with my foot still pressing the fucking clutch The truck driver never noticed and drove off when green happened, and I had no damage to my truck ... like it mattered, it was a $900 1992 Explorer.
Rogue_Alphonse Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 Dude you pretty much blacked out. Drugs bad mmkay Uh, had he been on drugs the cop probably would not have let him go, especially after a paramedic checked him out.
naraku360 Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 What part of I wasn't on drugs did you not understand? What part of nobody believes you do you not understand?
