In a long dumb story I once went to jail over a speeding ticket that was a day late.
The two cops couldn’t believe they had to arrest me for it and the jail was so backed up I was there for four days.
I was still a teenager and terrified, but I put on a face and told every joke I’d ever heard to get by. My last morning there My bunkmate found me so entertaining he offered me a free prostitute, which I had to very politely decline.
I remember when I got admitted at 20. Two Latino dudes and white, teenage me in the cell.
One dude had my mat for my bed. He saw that I walked in, looked at me, then got up without a word and put the mat on the bunk for me. I thanked him, introduced ourselves, and talked. Nicest person the whole time there. The jail staff were assholes on a powertrip. This dude ended giving me his “mom’s” number bc I do programming and stuff, which I ended misplacing. He said he was in for them finding a large amount of $ in a… foreign… car. I still wonder to this day how life would be different had I called that number.
Hope he is doing well.
… Just say thank you? You don’t need to follow through with their offer to acknowledge their appreciation.
Nah, it’s just that she had so many names pop into her head and wasn’t expecting such a rare and selfless offer. It’s crazy what happens when you treat nurses with respect and kindness like anyone else.
For some reason I imagined MS13 having a super courteous hotline with corporate help desk people for their hitmen.
Lol just ICA style Diana Burnwood answers the phone. You’re like “my upstairs neighbor is pretty loud I guess, idk, never done this before.” That night, he disappears off the face of the planet.
“Contract complete 47, good work”
Meanwhile the police are casually questioning you about if you’ve seen him recently.
