Here's a fun little interesting question.

If you saw me in the back of a police car, what would you think I had been arrested for?

Answer, then ask the question about yourself.

At the risk of being inane, I don't know what you look like so I would never know it was you even if you were in the back. of police car and I saw you.

I'd probably wonder if you'd been tazered to the extreme by the local trigger happy sheriff; kind of a fashionable trend these days.

You: Punching a politician.

Me: Putting the boot in once the barsteward's down. Probably have to take me away in an ambulance with a Faraday cage as I'll be lit up like a neon sign from all the tazering required to get me off the thing.

Answer, then ask the question about yourself.
I suspect the former is one of those questions where the answer would say more about me than it would about you - especially since I don't know you or anything about you. For example, if I thought you'd be one of those pilots dragged from the cockpit with brandy breath, you'd turn that back on me and tell me I had either a strong aversion to drink or a drinking problem! So, I will not venture an answer to the first question - and no, the example I gave does not tell you anything about me, I just read it off the forum.

The latter question: some kind of false accusation or misunderstanding.

If I sound suspicious of the motives behind these questions, it's because I'm suspicious of any and all forms of psychoanalysis, professional or amateur. This kind of leading question can be filed under "amateur".

Associating with shady characters. Giving them lifts all over the country, buying them cigarettes and MacDonald's hamburgers... Visiting Cuba, one too many times.

Well, since I'm not sure if that hillbillyism is an act or not, how about this:
Leaving your outside Christmas decorations up all year, in violation of township bylaw #78936?

I didn't know Oklahoma had such big trees......or is that what you get from spitting all those cherry pits off the front porch?

What's wrong with you woman, them thar be Pine trees!

By gum golly we ain't got no cherries round here. ( )

That there picture you done did show be a picture of Billy Boy Clinton's ol' double wide over thar in Arkansas, pronounced Are-kansas.

Naw, if I was ever in the back seat of a police car, it would because they would be giving me a ride home or to a bar where we could all get a drink.


Actually I have ridden in the back of a lot of Police cars, but I was on official duty when I did.

General demeaner Con. Are you pulling a jumper over your head, or straight and stony faced. Or are the cops sheilding you from the cameras to cover up the quiet chat they had with you?

Sincerly hope it never happens.
