Default Lighten Up!!

Went to the store this morning. I was only in there for about 5 minutes, and when I came out there was a motorcycle cop writing a parking ticket.

So I went up to him and said, "Come on, buddy, how about giving a guy a break?"

He ignored me and continued writing the ticket.

So I called him a pencil-necked-%$%$i. He glared at me and started writing another ticket for some vehicle violation!

So I called him a piece of horse dung.
He finished the second ticket and put it on the car with the first... then started writing a third ticket!

This went on for about 20 minutes. The more I abused him, the more tickets he wrote.

I didn't give a darn --my car was parked around the corner. :jester

Well, to quote the Walrus:

Instant Karma's gonna get you
Gonna knock you off your feet
Better recognize your brothers
Ev'ryone you meet

Tony, you forgot the rest of the story:

"So as I'm walking back to my car, I pass by some guy laughing his head head off. Then I see a half dozen tickets on MY windshield!"
