Hey Officer Charon, Has This Ever Happened to You?
- Thread starter ThatNickGuy
- Start date
I think that'd be a Wookie mistake for a mod.

GRRRRRRHHHH-wonk-wonk-wonk!
I've never gotten a ticket for any traffic violation, although I've had my fair share of parking tickets.
This one time I was waiting for a date in Huntsville. In case you're not familiar with Huntsville, TX it's a small town famous for its university, its state prison, and the Sam Houston museum. Most of that town struck me as incredibly sketchy. Since she and I had talked a lot about baking, part of the deal was I'd bring some homemade brownies with me. Anyways, I'd arrived early so she told me to wait for her at a particular corner in downtown Huntsville. So I waited, then she told me she was running late, and I waited some more. Later on that night, I thought back and realized how bad it had looked. A guy slowly pacing around a street corner, holding a Ziploc freezer bag with foil-wrapped items inside. Unbeknownst to me, there had been a bomb threat earlier that day as well.
Then a police cruiser pulled up to me and a cop asked what I was doing. I told him, but he obviously wasn't buying it. He ran my ID through the computer when a judge from the county courthouse across the street wandered over. In the meantime I was fretting because this was the FIRST date and I didn't want it to start with her seeing me grilled by the police. The ID checked out (I have no criminal record). The cop asked what I was carrying and I told him. To allay any more suspicions, I pulled back the foil on one of the contents and offered him a brownie. He and the judge both laughed and wished me a good day.
And my date had been waiting on the wrong street corner the whole time. She said she'd felt like a hooker lol.
