This was probably just a phony call placed by a language arts teacher.
The man at the scene was seen by the paramedics.
It seems he won one argument, but lost the fight.
His eyes say, "yes, yes", but there's no nose on his face.

reptlian, Just one. The rest will scratch and wonder why the bulb is still not working. A woman will show up, exchange the bulb for a good one and the men will spend the rest of the day wondering why she was such a b**** about it. The same reason she changed the bulb successfully...because she can.

Officers arrived having been trained in similar situations in the past, requested the accused sit down and watch while they played the interaction between Elaine and George from America's most influential sitcom.

ELAINE: Since when is a drain a toilet!?


GEORGE: It's all pipes! What's the difference?!

ELAINE: Different pipes go to different places! You're gonna mix 'em up!

GEORGE: I'll call a plumber right now!

At 6:25 pm Mrs johnson looked over at Mr johnson with a very disapproving look, at which point Mr Johnson simply looked to his left and replied, "hey now, wait a minute, it must have been the rufus" The dog sensing all eyes on him, just wagged his tail and rolled onto his back.

Upon receiving the call, the overworked dispatcher couldnt help but smile as she imagined just how pissed off Mr Johnson will be when his daughter adds a tongue ring to go along with that little provocative lower back tattoo her father is so upset about.

When questioned about what they were doing having a rave at the warehouse, the teens looked at each other and replied "well, we wanted to party" the arriving officers then explained to the confused and socially challenged youngsters that people dont through raves anymore and if they are caught "raving" again, they will "kick their little asses back to the 90s."
