Participants will have to sign a liability waiver

Nah. I'm good

[-] Nougat@fedia.io 61 points 6 months ago

Yeah! I want to run through a field at night pursued by armed police! That sounds like fun!

"trick or STOP RESISTING!!!!"

[-] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 8 points 6 months ago

“Okay!” <paints their cruiser pink with a fake gold shield, pig snout, slaps on a curly-cued pool noodle, a cop hat>

You wanted us to trick you right?

Cops play find the black kid all the time though. Doesn't usually end well for the black kid, but still.

“I call it hide and seek, they call it resisting arrest,” one commenter wrote.

Some people have been doing that their whole lives, and not for fun.

[-] SolarMonkey@slrpnk.net 26 points 6 months ago

Well, the plus side is that people who want to know if they can outrun the local police will have a chance to find out that (probably) won’t result in them getting shot

Try the new hide distracting items thing

[-] nokturne213@sopuli.xyz 5 points 6 months ago

That works. Thank you.

I've often thought about how fun it would be to get to play the "robber" in a police training scenario. I'd definitely join if there was something like this happening in my city, though I'd prefer it to be a more serious excercise.

EDIT: The comments here are even more unsurprising that the fact that the sun rose this morning.

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 6 points 6 months ago

What??? The sun rose this morning??? Well how long has THIS been going on??? I was under the impression that earth revolves around the sun, and the sun is a stationary flaming ball of scary!

Guys......if the sun is moving, we got big problems on our hands......BIG problems....

There's low hanging fruit, and then there's the shit on the ground that ants eat to get drunk. This is maybe under that.

[-] TheGingerNut 4 points 6 months ago

this is a tomato that got buried in a landslide

[-] chonglibloodsport@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

This is the shit at the bottom of my compost pile that somehow managed to avoid breaking down!

[-] DigitalNirvana@lemm.ee 6 points 6 months ago

Gee, I’d love to go but I already had plans. (Eek!)
