Cops don't do jokes

Today, a police officer pulled me over. He asked me where I was headed, so I jokingly replied, "Probably to jail after you run my name". He laughed and took my information, only to then arrest me for unpaid parking tickets I never received. FML

Sounds like it wasn't a laughing matter after all

That's actually really funny. Sorry you have to pay for that ticket now though, OP

I'm sorry, OP, but that's actually really funny.

Careful what you say... But seriously, that sucks. Is there any way to prove you never got those tickets?

Maybe you should not joke about it... I mean, it's a policeman, the one person who don't want stupid jokes. I would arrest myself for being that stupid...

Most officers I've had the experience talking to prefer a bit of humor, kinda breaks up some tense moments and in that line of work there are plenty..

Trying to use humor to defuse a stressful situation normally works... Unless fate hates you.

In this case, fate was 100% against him. Poor OP, what are the chances!

Damn, that sucks OP. But maybe you shouldn't of said that.

Wouldn't of made a difference lol, they run your name anyways
