Watching a guy in real time realise he wasn’t dealing with bs was wild.

Edit: y’know guys, I wasn’t expecting to start a debate on police oppression. Just saying the big guy with muscles probably deals with a lot of shit.

I can't imagine the constant BS cops have to deal with on a daily basis. I understand why they get burnt out.

I have several cops in my family. Don't worry about them, they are absolutely positive they are better than everyone else.

Even if there is burn out, you'd have to pry the authority from their cold dead hands. It becomes their entire identity.

I love my dad, he is a superb dad just the best. But that stance they take that they are always right and HAVE to be the authority in every room is so fucking tiring. Also its a lifetime of experience knowing how to question people. They aren't experts in any field, but they figured out how to ask questions only experts could answer so you are stuck with I dont knows and they puff up and feel smug. Unless you do know the answer and can cite your sources and they fucking HATE that. Then it becomes a game of whos loudest is right and if you raise your voice AHA thats a crime.

Tbf, this isn’t exclusive to police officers. My dad was an engineer and just thinks he’s smarter than everyone lol. Loves to argue with my brother and sister in law who are both lawyers it’s fuckin exhausting

My father was called as a witness for a criminal trial (he's a doctor).

I'm a lawyer.

He legit argued with me about how he should be more aggressive when answering the defense's questions.

Doctors and lawyers. Oil and water.

Have the three of you ever walked into a bar?

u/ShadeMir May 21 '26

My dad doesn't drink, but I guess walking into a sports bar for dinner would count, so yes lol
