did he ticket him?
Things overheard while riding
this morning-
motorcycle cop to driver:
"...you don't have insurance on the car, it's not registered, and you don't have a license. I understand you wanna drive, but...you're not allowed on the street..."
Me: snicker snicker
didn't stick around long enough
the silent grazing of not 1, not 2, but 3 fat bastards sitting in V8's with the engine running eating fucking mcdonalds on my morning commute. Lol america
when is spak gonna have a drive/bike thru?
Two girls walking down Atwood by Mad Mex:
"I don't know..."
"He wouldn't pull out a d*ck with herpes on it."
yikes!!
can't say I have ever really heard anything interesting, but the amount of cars that drive past me that leave a wafting scent of aromatic herbs is kind of surprising (and a bit scary). also, a few weeks ago i saw a guy driving his "stick" pretty hard in an automatic car.
I don't hear that much, but I, too, certainly can tell what people are smoking.
Pet peeve: smoking in a car is one of the dumbest things you can do. Aside from the possible impairment, all it takes is someone else to run into you and you are in serious trouble.
Also, if law enforcement catches a wiff of herb from a pedestrian? Well, cops really don't like paper work that much, y'know?
OTOH, in a car? Police have visions of news stories saying "5 minutes before he hit that school bus, a policeman let him go with a warning."
Just sayin'.
Not that I ever have had any experience with anything remotely like any of this, you understand.

Stopped at a red light, girl crosses in front of me on the crosswalk, only part of her phone call I heard: "...why? because you f*ing cheated on me, and you're a f*ing liar, thats why!..."
Whoops!
The last time I rode the bus a few months back (it was pouring rain in the morning -- I wussed out), I got on the empty bus, went to the middle and sat in a window seat. Bus fills up, large girl parks herself next to me, fires up ye'ol cell phone to call her man. I had to listen to 20 minutes of half her domestic issue phone call, which deteriorated into hysterical tears within the first 90 seconds. One of the people sitting a few seats away got off the same stop as me and made some comments about how uncomfortable that was. After that, I decided I'd rather be drenched than ride the bus.
One of the major problems I have with public transportation is the public.
I find the public entertaining every once in a while.. Its like watching FOX.
I don't think anyone can beat my buddy Dave and I riding across the 16th St. Bridge one night when we saw a homeless guy running after us wielding a giant 16" red dilldo like a pirate sword yelling at us as we rode by "YARRRRRRR!!!!"
Can anyone beat that?
whoa. if he had his pirate arm hook replaced with the dildo, that would be impressive
Actually, I'd think it would make a better peg-leg. Leave some amusing footprints, too.
I had a couple in the pedicab fighting two weeks back--I think they finalized the plans for the divorce while I was pedaling away. One of the choicer quotes was "I hope one of these cars just hits this bike thing and just put us all out of our misery" to which I had to reply that "my plans for tonight don't include any injuries, so we may have to part ways here."
One wonderful lady to another on Mt Washington:
"I dont know how she does that.. You cant love a man enough to put anything up that backdoor"
nothing like smoking herb in a car to make the statement that you don't mind being hassled, arrested, and having your car taken off of you. don't these people have houses/apartments that they can get baked in without fear of much repercussion? why take the risk?!
I bet mom was home.
Today i was told to "get a light!" It was 2pm and sunny...
Maybe they said "Got a light?" cause they wanted to smoke weed in their car
Hahaha, I bet that was it. A couple months ago some guy hopped off the curb in front of me to ask for papers. Damn hippies...
