Page Turner Posted June 22, 2018 Share #8 Posted June 22, 2018 ...most of the men I know are dicks. It's mostly a question of whether one of them is a huge dick. The biggest dicks in my personal experience all work for the fire department or the local sheriff's office. The city cops don't really measure up to the county sheriff dick standards here. Except for that one district manager at Modesto Social Security, But he had the courtesy to die. Which reminds me I still have not driven down there and pissed on his grave. I need to do that soon. It might be different in Canada, where they have a different cultural identity surrounding being a dick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either I'm becoming soft (all this dick talk can do that) or you are really, really on your posting game these days, Page Turner. ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like "traffic dick" or as I once heard used by Buggs Bunny, "railway dick". My wife's uncle used to call himself a railway dick as well. I think it gave way to the "p" word the hippies used that generally led to a roughing up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a detective that lives beside me who has been working youth/gang for about 10 years. She just bid to do patrol work for a couple years as a trainer. She said she needs some brainless work time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr Posted June 22, 2018 Share #15 Posted June 22, 2018 I am just glad I got off the road before cell phones had cameras. I am the bad combination of a quick wit, a big mouth and a smart ass all rolled into one. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
