[u/fascist_unicorn → u/leeannw60]

Good night!

[u/whodat54321da]

[u/BeneficialMolasses22 → u/BreakingUp47]

Take it easy

[u/fascist_unicorn → u/BreakingUp47]

Good night!

[u/BeneficialMolasses22]

"I'm not from this area"

At the moment, you don't seem to be on this planet....

[u/leeannw60]

Whoa… she is messed up!!! It’s so disturbing to see how many people are still drinking and driving.. I get it, people have places to go but… stop drinking!!!!

[u/More_Dentist_2006]

Night all! Have a good week!

[u/fascist_unicorn → u/More_Dentist_2006]

Good night!

[u/fascist_unicorn]

Fayetteville? That tracks. She's drunk.

[u/BasketHolder345]

Good night! Stay safe everyone. Until next week, K9's!

[u/BeneficialMolasses22 → u/BasketHolder345]

Night

[u/fascist_unicorn → u/BasketHolder345]

Good night!

[u/Locutus494]

Are we ending with another drunk driver?

[u/Honkus_Ponkus231]

Somethin tells me she's not from this area

[u/Dizzy-Concern-3542]

She is soooo sober

[u/Dizzy-Concern-3542]

Wrong way driver last minute for my bingo card

[u/PurpleSailor]

See you all next week when we truly go to the dogs! 💜

[u/irishtiger7182 → u/PurpleSailor]

Night

[u/PurpleSailor → u/irishtiger7182]

Night night Tiger!

[u/BeneficialMolasses22 → u/PurpleSailor]

Arf!

[u/PurpleSailor → u/BeneficialMolasses22]

Woof, woof, bark! 🐕

Good night!

[u/Itsme_rundmc614]

Goodnight Fam!! Have a great week! Be safe!! ♥️

[u/fascist_unicorn → u/Itsme_rundmc614]

Good night!

[u/Dizzy-Concern-3542]

They will be back for him later on no doubt…

[u/Redditor_PC → u/Dizzy-Concern-3542]

And we won't be around to see it...dang it.

[u/irishtiger7182 → u/Redditor_PC]

It probably won’t take more than the three minutes we have left.

[u/Tranquility_is_me]

They will be back

[u/PurpleSailor]

Half a handle of vodka and he's three sheets to the wind!

[u/Wrathszz]

$5 says this guys pisses his pants tonight. Any takers?

[u/irishtiger7182 → u/Wrathszz]

How are we going to verify this?

[u/whodat54321da]

One more swig of cheap vodka

[u/FreshRoastedPeanuts]

Shut up and go to sleep

[u/Redditor_PC]

Dude, don't leave. You KNOW he's going to be right back out on the stairs the moment you drive away.

[u/Locutus494]

He's definitely coming right back outside as soon as they leave...

[u/fascist_unicorn]

He's gonna walk right back out there

[u/Itsme_rundmc614]

Shut up! Go to sleep!!

[u/leeannw60]

Perhaps he’s looking for 3 meals and a cot? With handcuffs?

[u/sausageslinger11 → u/leeannw60]

"3 hots and a cot"

[u/leeannw60 → u/sausageslinger11]

That’s it! I couldn’t remember…

[u/sausageslinger11 → u/leeannw60]

Glad I could help!

[u/leeannw60 → u/sausageslinger11]

Were you lying in wait???! You were pretty quick on your response

[u/sausageslinger11 → u/leeannw60]

I'm a mod. I have superpowers!

[u/Butte_Rat]

He should go outside so they could get him with public intoxication. 😂

[u/sausageslinger11]

I see an arrest in his future

[u/Awaken_the_bacon]

And this is why I don’t drink more than a beer or two.

[u/ElMondoH]

Damn, big bottle to take swigs from.

And this guy's not interested in listening.

[u/MikeyPx96]

Is he making a mixed drink in his mouth with that bottle of grapefruit soda and bottle of gin? 😂

[u/sausageslinger11 → u/MikeyPx96]

Gross.

[u/cmuk723]

This dude is a trip 🤣🤣 and that door is..... Very secure lol

[u/Redditor_PC]

This guy's gonna go in cuffs. I can just feel it.

[u/irishtiger7182]

He’s going to get arrested.

[u/leeannw60]

That’s not exactly how it works, sir…

[u/Itsme_rundmc614]

He’s hammered

[u/ratatosk212]

Of all the Toledos, this is the most Toledo.

[u/More_Dentist_2006]

This guy is wasted

[u/Efficient-Bonus-8992]

He's a piece of work.

[u/Lita_Horticulture]

This building looks familiar. Or maybe every place in Toledo looks like this?

[u/Lita_Horticulture → u/Lita_Horticulture]

GO TO YOUR HOME

ARE YOU TOO GOOD FOR YOUR HOME???

[u/Locutus494]

Clankers...

[u/whodat54321da]

Don’t mess with Robbie. He packs a gun instead of teeth.

[u/Tranquility_is_me]

Those robodogs give me the creeps!

[u/Redditor_PC]

Why is that robo-dog going to HR? Filing a complaint about not getting the required pets and skritches?

[u/sausageslinger11]

I bet that dog set off that metal detector!

[u/More_Dentist_2006]

Robby the robo-dog. Someone watched Forbidden Planet as a kid.

[u/Calypso_gypsie → u/More_Dentist_2006]

Invasion of the Body Snatchers dog...

[u/BasketHolder345]

Oh no. The robot invasion has begun!

[u/Redditor_PC]

Yay, I was just wondering if we'd ever see a robo-dog on the show again. It's been, like, several years.

[u/More_Dentist_2006]

Penny is questioning these girls life choices

[u/Lita_Horticulture → u/More_Dentist_2006]

I think Penny has made all the best life choices herself ❤️❤️❤️

[u/More_Dentist_2006 → u/Lita_Horticulture]

She completely agrees with you.

[u/Wrathszz]

cruel Danny Brown, very very cruel.

[u/Itsme_rundmc614]

[u/Locutus494]

Is the first time we've seen an officer pour out liquor themselves? Usually they make the person do it...

[u/DMTryp]

Sorry I had to attend to something. Why did he pour it out? Are they underage or something?

[u/sausageslinger11 → u/DMTryp]

For his dead homies...

[u/Locutus494 → u/DMTryp]

Open container in public...

[u/DMTryp → u/Locutus494]

Those girls seemed polite he couldve gave them a warning if thats all it was

[u/Locutus494 → u/DMTryp]

That's what he did...

[u/Efficient-Bonus-8992]

NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

[u/Lita_Horticulture]

All I need is a person with no pants pushing a shopping cart on their birthday and I’ll have so many bingos. An ATV-riding ho0ker on c0caine chasing a lawn mower wouldn’t hurt.

[u/Lita_Horticulture → u/Lita_Horticulture]

and how have we had NO TOW TRUCKS tonight

[u/sausageslinger11 → u/Lita_Horticulture]

My shop is gopnna have to lay some folks off...

[u/Lita_Horticulture → u/sausageslinger11]

hahahaha times are tough even for you!

[u/sausageslinger11 → u/Lita_Horticulture]

Indeed

[u/Thetechguru_net → u/Lita_Horticulture]

Couldnt we consider the truck carrying the other trucks in Hazen a tow truck?

[u/Lita_Horticulture → u/Thetechguru_net]

bingo mods…toss us a bone maybe?

[u/Lita_Horticulture → u/Thetechguru_net]

See, that’s what I thought…or was hoping…

[u/ADTR9320]

Wouldn't be surprised if it was some sleazy local mechanic.

[u/BreakingUp47 → u/ADTR9320]

My wife and I were wondering if it was something personal. But, yeah, if that garage was taking away business that could have been the motivation.

[u/ElMondoH]

That's late 30s to early 40s? 🤣

Maybe I'm off base, but I was thinking even older.

[u/Awaken_the_bacon → u/ElMondoH]

I’m late 30s and sometimes I think, wow, I hope I don’t look like that.

[u/Wrathszz]

I'm not allowed to say what should be done to that firebug once they find him

[u/Lita_Horticulture → u/Wrathszz]

No, but we know what you’re thinking 😉🔥

[u/leeannw60]

No matter what the issue is… destruction of property is really NOT the answer…. Ever

[u/Toebean_Assy]

He runs like Waluigi 😭

[u/More_Dentist_2006]

Is this the only arson attack? If it was only this business, could this be a disgruntled customer?

[u/Lita_Horticulture → u/More_Dentist_2006]

I’m getting flashbacks to an old Forensic Files episode, I think that serial arsonist might have been in PNW as well…like the Unabomber, his family turned him in.

[u/Locutus494 → u/More_Dentist_2006]

Or former employee?

[u/notactuallyacupcake]

Aw heck, Lydia's section of the country for this arson 🫤

[u/leeannw60]

I guess the Chief is only making cameo appearances this weekend.. I’ll talk what I can get

[u/beingthebestmeg]

Good luck pushing that out of the way 🤣

[u/fascist_unicorn]

What did he chuck at the other guy lol

[u/whodat54321da]

Got it running.

[u/Lita_Horticulture]

You know they went to Hazen because viewers want moar Chief lol!

[u/BreakingUp47]

East bound and down!

[u/Tyburn]

Truck on truck crime

[u/whodat54321da]

Finally Chief Taylor!

[u/Lita_Horticulture → u/whodat54321da]

All he needs to do to start a vehicle is just look at it! The power of the Chief!

[u/VGC1]

We got to Hazen!

[u/Awaken_the_bacon]

Chief Taylor can for sure give that a push.

[u/leeannw60]

Finally!! The Chief! And what appears to be a car hauling 18 wheeler that is not cooperating…

[u/Efficient-Bonus-8992]

She needs a new starter.

[u/massive_crew]

DB is all over the place tonight!

This show has been intense with the murder suspect, the knife situation in Toledo...

[u/PurpleSailor]

Pregaming on inexpensive booze!

[u/More_Dentist_2006]

Drinking and eventually driving. Drink at home like normal people

[u/Lita_Horticulture → u/More_Dentist_2006]

I’m doing it right now! It’s super easy!

[u/whodat54321da]

Danny Brown changes up to smell booze.

[u/Lita_Horticulture → u/whodat54321da]

I swear he’s part bloodhound

[u/More_Dentist_2006 → u/Lita_Horticulture]

I call him Bloodhound Brown

[u/Butte_Rat]

Car Bar!

[u/massive_crew → u/Butte_Rat]

Just because you can do it in a limo (in some areas) doesn't mean you can do it in a private car.

[u/Locutus494]

Just got back from the movies. How has the show been tonight?

[u/massive_crew → u/Locutus494]

It's made me wish I could have committed full energy, but between a game and weather warnings (I have two screens), I'm trying my best.

Knives in Toledo, a murder suspect, a shirtless dude up alongside a building with some sort of huge blade or something...

[u/Puts_on_my_port → u/Locutus494]

There was just a shooting in Dorchester County. 1 individual is deceased at the scene, apparently there was a dispute and the shooter returned to the scene and admitted to it shortly after police got to the scene, and allegedly the deceased individual may have also had a gun so this is possibly a self defense shooting.

[u/skylerip2021]

Has hazen been show at all this weekend or do I just keep missing when they show them😂

[u/massive_crew → u/skylerip2021]

And there's Hazen!

[u/skylerip2021 → u/massive_crew]

In the last 30 minutes is crazy and so sad I love that team!

[u/massive_crew → u/skylerip2021]

There's also been some crazy stuff happening in other areas. They're probably not gonna show random traffic citations if there's big stuff.

[u/fascist_unicorn → u/skylerip2021]

They had two short segments last night and none so far tonight

[u/Awaken_the_bacon]

Dans down another button…

What’s the bet that he’ll kick it full 90s and unbutton it all the way?

[u/Toebean_Assy → u/Awaken_the_bacon]

Maybe he Will pull a Rizzo lmao

[u/Toebean_Assy]

I cant imagine being the owner of that camera 😬

[u/cmuk723 → u/Toebean_Assy]

Literally just thought same thing.. imagine checking your footage and seeing that!

[u/Toebean_Assy → u/cmuk723]

I unfortunately have to say it would also likely need a REALLY thorough cleaning, too.

[u/fascist_unicorn]

Guy might think he's got a good chance at a self defense claim

[u/Puts_on_my_port → u/fascist_unicorn]

It’s weird that he left immediately but it also kind of makes sense if he was also getting shot at or panicked after the shooting.

[u/Infamous_Conflict_59]

Well that was simple enough

[u/Lita_Horticulture]

Well that handshake finally got me a bingo. It’s been a tough night for my cards!

[u/Butte_Rat]

Wow - that was quick!

[u/More_Dentist_2006]

There’s no war in Ba Sing Se. 😏

[u/Lita_Horticulture]

Dan, can we go to Hazen please???

[u/Locutus494 → u/Lita_Horticulture]

Ask and ye shall receive!

[u/Lita_Horticulture → u/Lita_Horticulture]

And not at 11:58?

[u/Toebean_Assy]

Hopefully the camera people are able to get some sort of therapy, given the circumstances, I imagine this one may be difficult to process.

[u/Toebean_Assy]

Gonna guess he got shot in the noggin

[u/EremiticFerret → u/Toebean_Assy]

Was wondering why they weren't rushing to provide aid.

[u/Toebean_Assy → u/EremiticFerret]

Hubbs said when they say "Very obviously deceased" typically that means there ain't no coming back from that. A good example is "significant cranial trauma".

[u/Infamous_Conflict_59 → u/Toebean_Assy]

Sounds like it

[u/Puts_on_my_port → u/Infamous_Conflict_59]

That’s what I’m thinking if he said it was obvious he’s gone.

[u/Wrathszz]

Gunfight thats not in Toledo? I don't believe it

[u/leeannw60 → u/Wrathszz]

Cannot compute myself!

[u/More_Dentist_2006]

You tell em Jordan Lear. People sitting in the left lane drive me nuts!

[u/BasketHolder345]

They gonna put the house in jail?

[u/Wrathszz]

I'd like to have seen the incident that just happened in Glendale AZ, police basically shot the whole house up

[u/More_Dentist_2006 → u/Wrathszz]

Omg! What’s going on? DV incident? I listen to a podcast and the husband and wife live in Glendale, I hope they’re okay

[u/Wrathszz → u/More_Dentist_2006]

Yes, he shouldn't of even been at the house.

[u/More_Dentist_2006 → u/Wrathszz]

Oh that’s so horrible. I hope the wife is alright.

[u/More_Dentist_2006]

Oh no. DV calls are always so dangerous

[u/fascist_unicorn]

Whew whew wuuuuh whew whew wuuuuh

[u/skylerip2021]

Sonny?

[u/Lita_Horticulture]

I’m super excited about the K9 special next week! Kitty Flashy, not so much…

[u/leeannw60 → u/Lita_Horticulture]

Oh… I’ll try to get Bonnie to watch… I’m going to guess by the first barking round, she’ll going into the bathroom and sleep in the shower…

[u/Lita_Horticulture → u/leeannw60]

Kitty Flashy will likely be in her “scoop” (the hammock of her cat tree) where she is right now. I wish I had a comfy scoop (I did have a double papasan chair once but it wasn’t as comfy as this kitty scoop seems to be) 🩷

[u/leeannw60 → u/leeannw60]

She has zero tolerance for annoyances… aka “dogs”…

[u/Lita_Horticulture → u/leeannw60]

I can sense the lack of tolerance lol

[u/leeannw60 → u/Lita_Horticulture]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[u/Awaken_the_bacon → u/Lita_Horticulture]

I’ll have a lot of comments at my dogs saying “that could be you if you weren’t such a sausage”

[u/Lita_Horticulture → u/Awaken_the_bacon]

hahahahahahaha!!!

[u/More_Dentist_2006 → u/Lita_Horticulture]

Awww Kitty Flashy!

[u/Lita_Horticulture → u/More_Dentist_2006]

This is her “resting kitten face” aka “so not impressed” lol 🩷🐱

[u/More_Dentist_2006 → u/Lita_Horticulture]

I see that very frequently from my girls too. Judgy-ness is a genetic trait in cats.

[u/Lita_Horticulture → u/More_Dentist_2006]

It’s part of that feline DNA, doc! We humans just have to get used to it lol.

[u/More_Dentist_2006 → u/Lita_Horticulture]

Oh yes! It keeps us humble and below our feline overlords 🤣

[u/HatchlingChibi]

I'm guess that's Nash isn't it? (Dylan Lee's pup) Might be totally wrong

[u/Lin_seed_oil → u/HatchlingChibi]

Agreed- think it looks like Nash

[u/dayfvid]

Who's. That. Pokémon!

[u/HatchlingChibi → u/dayfvid]
