Money: Today, I got pulled over on the highway for going over the speed...

Today, I got pulled over on the highway for going over the speed limit. The cop seemed nice, and I was sure he'd let me off with a warning, until my husband piped up with, "Didn't think you folks came out this far. What, the donut store got shut down or some shit?" I got the ticket. FML

Today, I was pulled over and was given a $300 ticket for going 90mph on a 70mph highway. The cop swore he saw my silver car darting in and out of traffic. A couple of minutes earlier that exact car had passed me while I was following the speed limit. FML

Today, my husband and I were pulled over by a cop. He was still angry from our earlier argument over his constant freeloading, and when the cop told him we'd been doing 75 in a 55, he retorted, "Yeah? I did 75 in your mom last night, fuzzball." One more ticket I have to pay for. FML

Am I being detained?

Today, I got pulled over for speeding. I tried to make a joke to ease the tension and said, "I’m just trying to keep up with the traffic!" The officer looked around at the empty road and said, "What traffic? Are you under the influence? HANDS ON THE WHEEL!" It went downhill from there. FML

Today, a cop rear-ended me. Then I received a ticket from him for driving too far under the speed limit. We were in a school zone. FML

Today, a policeman pulled me over and proceeded to flirt with me. After I had rejected him, he gave me a ticket for "not paying attention to the road". FML

Today, after giving my husband a ton of crap about the speeding ticket he got last year, I got a speeding ticket. FML

Today, I got pulled over for speeding and got a $200 ticket. After I pulled away, I decided to warn the next car about the cop up ahead by flashing my headlights. The next car was another cop. He didn't appreciate my "help". FML

Today, while driving home, I saw a cop with a speed gun "hidden" by the side of the road. I went to slow down so the fuck-knob wouldn't be able to ticket me. I then had a brain-fart and floored the gas instead of hitting the brakes. Hello speeding ticket. FML

Today, I was smoking while driving. A cop pulled me over and asked if I knew what I did wrong. I thought he could smell the tobacco, so I decided to just admit it. As it turns out, I was going well over the speed limit. FML

Next time tell him to shutup before all the stupid comes out.

I'm sorry, OP. Maybe next time try not to speed or go over the limit. Just pay your ticket before it gets higher.

it hits everybody hard when small family run businesses close, the cop probably knew the owner of the donut shop

No, he was making fun of the cop for either being heavy-weighted or because of the stereotype.

I think the Dothraki punishment is appropriate here. Tie him to the back of the car and make him walk home.

Any game of thrones punishment is good with me.

I'd smack him over the head and tell him to keep it shut. That must've been frustrating especially since the cop was being polite.

I guess no one else saw that news story. A 14 hour rectal search may have been more warranted in this instance, for educational purposes.

He's probably heard it a thousand times over. Cops find it disrespectful and irritating being looked down on and made fun of for keeping dumbasses like the OP's husband safe because it's their job

Sorry OP, some people don't get sometimes you keep your mouth shut or he just doesn't care. Either way I'd speak with him about that. Sounds like something a dumb college kid would've said to a cop thinking it was funny.
