I think I would dump him
This is my first post in what will likely be the most popular category … Scannerland! Whenever I hear something funny on the scanner (or at the police station), I will post it here. The phrase is an old reference to the events that you would hear on a police scanner, back in the day where everyone had a scanner in their kitchen. It’s not used much here anymore, but I think it has a nice ring. On with the post:
An unidentified woman called the police station last night while I was there typing the blotter. The woman wanted to file a harassing communications report because her sister’s boyfriend apparently called her sister and cursed at both of them. The officer, suspicious of this whole exchange, asked how the boyfriend managed to curse both of them over the phone. This conversation follows:
Girl: “Oh, my sister put him on speaker phone.”
Officer: “So what’s your relation to him?”
Girl: “Well, we have a baby together, but he’s my sister’s boyfriend.”
Umm … yeah, I think I would dump my boyfriend if he got my sister pregnant. Just sayin’.
My sister-in-law would roam up behind me sometimes and rub my shoulders to make her sister, my wife, rage with green Tennessee Williams envy. Does this mean I should’ve divorced my now ex-wife?
Whooooaaa … this is like string theory for the heart.
