Two LMPD officers

[WC Deer Hunter]

This thread is full of win! I'm at every post.





And Scutter01, this was pure gold. I have to spread it around though before I can get you again.

I've been laughing so hard my son keeps yelling, Dad what the heck are you laughing at?

Send in a letter of praise/thanks into their department. The only time LEOs hear from the public is when they have screwed up. I think it would be nice to hear when they have done something right. I don't know if their training was different or just the kind of men they were, but i agree that we need more officers that behave in this professional manner. +1 to them!

This. People are quick to complain but slow to compliment (if ever).... though I would leave out the part about the "shucking".

Generally, people tend to write the way they speak. Heavy accents or regional dialects will affect that. My mother-in-law (a native Kentuckian - from the hills of Hazard KY), to her dying day, insisted that "wash" was spelled "w-a-r-s-h" and that it was possible to "sale" something. I still don't know if her cousin is named "Dell" or "Dale".

My dad used to talk about "warshing dishes after supper." My uncle still uses "reach" instead of "hand." As in, "can you reach me that hammer?" Or, "the cashier reached me back my change." My grandpa also refers to the creek behind his house as the "crick." Until the day he died I never did understand a word that my great uncle was saying. It keeps things interesting.

True..... and the really like the police apparently.



You really have to hand it to the cops on how they handled the situation.

I was just at a thortons on poplar level road getting gas and walked in openly carrying my XD .40 and when I was in line to pay I noticed two LMPD officers by my car and when I walked out they asked me if I had a permit to carry my firearm I told him yes I do and he said alright sir and shaked my hard

Shaked your what? Boy, those were friendly cops!

Sorry. Been out all afternoon and just saw this. Thanks for the laugh. You did this on purpose, right.

Yeah about the pronunciation. I had a friend from Boston and I never knew if her dogs name was "Kirky" or "Cookie".

I ran a piping job in East Tennessee about 10 years ago. The realtor lady drove me around Johnson city looking for a rental apartment for an entire afternoon and we **** chatted about our families. She kept referring to "air" son who lived out of state. I thought WTH is she talking about. Finally a plumber that I hired said she's saying "our" son. This guy had lived in New York and had relocated there a few years earlier. He said, "I translate for out of towners all the time now."

That is awesome! I'm from the New Albany area, so I carry in Louisville quite often. CC though. Guess I'll have to OC for a change.

That's where my grandparents and family is from, eastern Tennessee. I love the food when I go down to visit, but I can't understand what they are talking about.
