To be fair if someone yelled "good morning officer" I'd look up too, because that's just a weird thing to hear and I'd want to know where the cops were.

Fair, but you've gotta admit that guy is either a cop or a youth pastor

Also fair, the unique combo of boombox, shorts, air jordan tee and pulled up socks is particularly uncanny. I would've assumed the boombox had been sitting in an evidence locker since 1982 if it wasn't for the blue LEDs.

His socks are pulled up too high to not be a narc

Bunched up socks are just uncomfortable

As a firm believer that snitches get stitches, 100% this.

Although I dont do it like this guy, I just buy shorter socks.

Just above the ankle cut for me, thanks.

Nope mid shin or barefoot

What I don't get is why doesn't MTA NYC just fix their fucking turnstiles to stop fare dodging?!

But then they don't get to use force and cherry pick who they persecute.

And then you have Austria where that just doesn't exist, there are just periodical controls in the vehicles or when coming out lol. In my entire life I was checked maybe three or four times!

[–] festnt@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago

[–] TheFriar@lemm.ee 6 points 6 months ago

I have to assume the bars are covering up the sweatband that is surely on his wrist.

If someone yelled anything, I'd probably look. People don't usually yell in public. If I heard someone yell "hey, jackass" I'd wanna see who the jackass is.
