“Do you know why I pulled you over” does really sound condescending though, like neither of us want to be here so will you just get on with it?!

I feel like I read somewhere that it’s kind of a way to see if you’ll incriminate yourself

That’s exactly what it is. If they’re asking you that question they want you to admit to whatever it was (speeding, etc) so they don’t need evidence and you can’t fight the ticket.

Play dumb, but be polite.

“I’m not sure, could you please tell me what you saw?” Or something like that.

Remember, just like in an accident, don’t admit fault. You can decide later if you want to fight the ticket, but if you admit fault then and there, you lose that option.

I respect and love cops but always answer this way cuz you never know if you’re dealing with a corrupt cop

I wish I put as much effort into my life as Phil Collins did into the Tarzan soundtrack

One time my Spanish 2 teacher was like “I dont have a lesson today. We’re watching Tarzan” and put it in the VHS (This was 2010). We [sophomores – seniors, I was a junior] were super excited. The movie starts and my friend and I look at each other and say at the same time “IS PHIL COLLINS SINGING IN SPANISH?!” I went home that night and found out Phil Collins sang the songs in the English, Italian, German, Spanish, and French versions of the film. Mind blown.

I did NOT know that and now I gotta look up all the versions that Phil Collins sang for omggg

it’s so difficult not being able to use milennial humor in a corporate setting. like i made a mistake today and i wanted to tell my supervisor it’s because i suffer from Dumb Bitch Disease, but do you think that would fly?? fuck no. i gotta say shit like, “sorry for the misunderstanding!” i can’t wait till the workforce is made up entirely of millennials and i can say “sorry i drank idiot juice for breakfast this morning” and my coworkers will be like “oh worm.”

Working in an office with mostly fellow millennials is still hit-or-miss dependent on meme literacy, and it’s so unnecessarily stressful to have to make that split-second decision of what dialect I can use with each person.

That’s what I was thinking, like I didn’t grow up around people my age too much what with being homeschooled so my references are from stuff from the 80s, like the Muppet Show or Mel Brooks movies or Bob and Doug McKenzie OR going even more obscure from British sitcoms from the 70s. So while I kinda know memes I’m more likely to use stuff like “oh geez eh that’s a bummer,” with people I’m comfortable with lol.

Also Jeeves and Wooster but I think even LESS people would understand that.
