I have to start this thread...
My eyes will always roll back in my head and that part of my mind says, "Oh Gawd, here we go again!" when I'm introduced and people take it upon themselves to take me step by step, volume by volume, through their last law enforcement encounter, i.e. traffic stop, with mind numbing (lack of) detail! I swear, my world comes to a stop, and I try not to chuckle when they--finally-- end with..."Well, what do you think?" or "Is that how you would have handled it (the situation in question)?" Of course, if it's a traffic stop, I can pretty much discern what got the afflicted party into their predicament in the first place and what they might have "inadvertently" forgotten to mention as the real cause of the contact.
My other favorites: Have you ever been... (And yes, shot is something I've been and can't even begin to explain)
And, I saw in this movie...
Alright, ladies and gents who wear a badge for a living, let the games begin!
