    ... 'cause I'm bored.

    Yes, I actually have a sighting.

    My husband and best friend were out shopping, and behind them was a policeman. The cashier was one they've dealt with before, not the brightest bulb in the pack.

    The cashier apparently thought the following was a perfectly normal request to make of the police officer.

    "Would you lend me your gun? I'm bored."
    Seshat's self-help guide:
    1. Would you rather be right, or get the result you want?
    2. If you're consistently getting results you don't want, change what you do.
    3. Deal with the situation you have now, however it occurred.
    4. Accept the consequences of your decisions.

    Well, to be fair to myself, I've done that, too.

    Of course, I knew the cop(s), and knew they'd say no.

    But I'm weird like that.

      So...what was the officer's response?

      "Are you so bored you'd like to stay overnight in a cell?"

      "I don't want your job that much"

      Or the ever popular..."No"

        I have a friend who got bored and saw a cop, so he floored the gas and ran from the cop. amazingly he still has his truck and his license. he did get 2 weeks in jail, and put back on probation though... my friends really do some stupid shit

          I asked that, too. He decided to pretend to take it as a joke - and yes, used the ever-popular "No".
