Things I have learned about cops from TV and movies
  • Most cops have an angry, overstressed, and loud middle-aged black man as their commander.
  • Most cops have 3 day-old Chinese leftovers and one beer in the fridge.
  • Most cops catch the bad guys at their hideout, sirens and lights blaring.
  • Most cops are either divorced or separated for their second, third spouse.
  • Most cops have adult children that can’t stand them.
  • Most black cops don’t racially profile black people.
  • Most cops have a partner that is a complete opposite intellectually and emotionally.
  • Most cops smoke two, three packs of cigarettes a day.
  • Most cops are in the process of quitting smoking.
  • Most cops are in the process of quitting drinking.
  • Most cops hate shrinks but go to them because they are ordered to.
  • Most cops have hygiene problems-tattered clothing, unshaved face, etc.
  • Most cops hate the press.

    2. Not Marion Cobretti
    He had old pizza in his fridge. And he ate it with a knife, because he's secure in his sexuality.

    6. And don't forget...

    8. Hey, don't forget that many women cops
    wear pumps. That is always a laugh riot-ever notice that they don't show her feet when she is chasing someone? Yeah, I'm sure you know what I'm talking about.

    What was Hunter's partner? She wore ridiculous pumps. 80's fluff hairdo...and best of all, being undercover sometimes entailed singing at nightclubs. LOL.
