“Who Ya Gonna Call?”

Saturday, May 28th, 2011 • Filed under DrugsComment

I’ve recently come to the decision that prank calls are pretty overrated. Actually, just calling in general has become kind of a pain. Twenty years from now, phones probably won’t even have a calling feature. They’ll just telepathically transmit your message into the other person’s brain…or something else just as creepy.

But this guy won’t be using any type of phone anytime soon. While calling to confirm a narcotics deal, the Waffle House employee accidentally pocket-dialed 911. According to NY Daily News, this resulted in the police department receiving a call at 1:30 am, and hearing every detail involving the drug deal. Looks like typical phone skills really have become obsolete…

Daddy Du’h Care

Thursday, November 5th, 2009 • Filed under Drugs14 Comments

People who have to take care of one child must be a bundle of nerves. People who have to take care of more than four must be total basket cases. People who have to look after 30 are either clinically insane or in definitive need of castration.

That still doesn’t excuse these two day care center workers who ran a meth lab in their business, according to Local15TV.com.
