Alright, it was pretty crazy, so hopefully this doesn't sound stupid or too drawn out.
Saturday night, usual night to go bowling with my friends. I go to my one friend's house (it's about 8:15 PM), he isn't ready and tells me to pick up the other guy. I say alright. Call this friend while I drive to get him, even though it's only about 5 minutes. We're gonna go to a video game store for a little bit, mainly cause I hadn't pre-ordered the Burning Crusade (WoW expansion) just yet. I get to his place and he's playing some game with his friend on his XB360 on live, so he tells me to go and come back.
So the Gamestop I pre-ordered this at was the one I also was employed by for a week, even though I only was scheduled to work one day, and they never scheduled me another day of work, so I assumed I pretty much got fired after the winter season was over. That was last year. But the guy who actually hired me was there and he didn't even remember me, which I guess was fine... but with a last name like mine I doubt you'd forget me. And a kid I graduated with was working there, one of my other friend's friends. I don't really like him but he wouldn't be the worst person to hang out with, since he likes video games. I still say since it's an expansion it should have been another 10 bucks less, but I'm glad it wasn't 50 bucks.
So from there, I have it pre-ordered, I go back to my second friend's house. Pick him up, go get the other friend. We drive towards Gameworks, where my other friend works. We forget until we're about halfway there that they have a ghey curfew thing for people under 21 for 8:30 PM and on. We text him, since he's at work, but get no response. We have to head back to Garrett's (guy who played the XB360) to chill until it gets closer to the bowling special time (11:30 PM 2 hours for 13 bucks with shoes included).. somewhere in the night I took Garrett to blockbuster to get a new game cause he has that whatever it's called. He picked up Oblivion for his XB360.
We relax at his house and do stupid shit in Oblivion until we get ahold of our other friends. One was going to go, then he got tired so he didn't. The one who worked at Gameworks was good to go, so we head out. It's like 11:00 PM at this time.
So we drive down this not really side street, some jerkoff is putting around with his brake lights on, I think he was going like 15 MPH without even having his damned turn signal on. So I get around him and we're back on Golf Rd. Two lights down a cop decides to pull us over. Apparently he clocked me going 38 MPH in that 25 MPH zone where I passed that cunt up (I apologize in advance if you are offended by that word, but it's an angry word in my vocabulary and this stuff got me really ticked.) Anyway, so I give the pig my license and insurance card, he goes back to his car to do his background check or w/e. We were sitting for at least 15 minutes and another cop car pulls up and I'm cursing like a sailor about how retarded this is. So apparently this guy phoned in to get backup or something. Here's where my night gets fun... and enfuriating.
He comes back to my window and asks me to step out of the car, at this point I'm kinda hoping he has me do a field sobriety test because it would have been fun. Wasn't drinking or doing anything, then he takes me aside and tells me that my car smells like pot. I tell him that neither me nor my friends smoke pot nor were with anybody who did tonight. My friends are asked to get out too, and we are talked to and sorta searched of our persons for stuff that we could harm the officers with. Fuuuuun. We're sitting there then freezing our asses off while we wait for pig #1 to finish searching my car for the pot he thought he smelled. At this point we're pretty freaked cause the dude looks like he as itching to make a bust and was going to plant shit on us. Probably because it was the first time I got pulled over. He doesn't find anything of course, like we were telling him.
We were thinking there was probably somebody near where we came from that had a noise complaint or some disturbance with a party and they thought we were coming from there or something. My friend Garrett had mentioned where we came from, his house, and the address. The cop probably looked it up or something, even though none of us looked like stoners or anything. So I got a $75 ticket for speeding, which is way too damn much. Also the fucking pig didn't give me back my license.
We're then 40 minutes late to go bowling, get there and bowl. When we leave I drop my friends off at Garrett's because one is spending the night, and as I drop them off we see the same fucking pig who pulled us over, probably looking for somebody who was smoking pot. I wanted to give a piece of my mind and ask for my license back but thought better of it. Instead I rocked out to Rage Against the Machine on the way home.
So here's my thing this week - FUCK THE POLICE! (Not the band)
