Cranky cop in row over Krispy Kremes

EVEN the doughnut-loving Chief Wiggum from The Simpsons would have been appalled. Well, maybe.
A Brisbane police officer got into a holey row with Krispy Kreme staff, demanding to be served free doughnuts.

Shocked customers looked on as the officer argued with staff for several minutes in a bid to get his freebies, before finally storming off - empty handed and non-cinnamon-fingered.

"I couldn't believe what I was seeing," a witness said. "He was quite rude, insisting his doughnuts should be free. He was so greedy for the doughnuts. I thought, 'you swine, get your money out and pay for them like everyone else'."

As the icing on the cake, Krispy Kreme has now decided to stop supplying Brisbane police with leftover doughnuts.

The junior constable from the City Beat unit, on Adelaide St, was reprimanded by colleagues after the embarrassing scene.

Before the incident, officers had been regularly popping in to collect free boxes of leftover doughnuts at the store in nearby Albert St at the end of the day.

Staff were unable to sell the doughnuts and were only too happy to oblige.

A police source said the officer had become confused and thought the free doughnut arrangement applied at all times. "Everyone's a bit annoyed because they were a nice treat at the end of the day with a coffee," he said.

"It's a shame the arrangement came to such a nasty end, because we do love Krispy Kremes - although our waistlines are looking a lot better now."

A spokeswoman for the Queensland Police Service said the officer's behaviour could not be condoned.

"A constable from City Beat received managerial guidance at the time of the incident," she said.

It is believed the Krispy Kreme store now gives the leftover doughnuts to the homeless instead.

My theory: because not every movie has an Austrian-born ex-bodybuilder yelling at a bunch of little kids :D :

Exploded plans are no longer exploded. XD

And a question, should I get a tattoo or get my lip pierced or my ear pierced again?

None of the above.

I never like seeing on the news bushfires and the path of destruction they course. Bloody arsonists, they should burn!
 
Everything was fine, but now no matter what i type into Google 'This site may harm your computer.'

You mix proper beef (as in Roast, not hamburger) and put Cheddar cheese on it, how odd - I'll have to try that! Arbys do you recommend it for a "stranger/foreigner"?

I wouldn't call it proper Roast Beef.
 
Well now it looks like I'm officially back now that I've got consistent internet access up and running. Basic training was, well, basic training and for the most part it sucked but there were some fun parts. The obstacle course was a blast as were the trips to the shooting ranges. My gun-toting American comrades will be glad to hear I earned expert small arms marksman with the M9 pistol. :cool:

So far tech school is so much nicer (as can be seen by the fact that I'm able to make this post). It's a lot like college only I'm getting paid for it. Awesome! For those who don't know I'm learning to be a maintenance crew chief for a C-130 and I'm very excited about it. I can't wait to dive in and get my hands dirty.

Now if you'll excuse me I have two months of posts to catch up on as well as five episodes of Top Gear.
 
^ Well then officially welcome back :D
 
Welcome back KaJuN... glad to hear things are going well.

If I were into that stuff, that would be great, but I'm honestly not. :lol:
 
I just my had first Apple Store/Genius Bar experience today.

It was terrible.

The store was overly crowded (not their fault, I know) with animals customers. I had an appointment for 7:15 and was taken 15 minutes late. Then the 'genius,' who has clearly never touched a female before, was giving me crap about the cracking case on my MacBook.

I have honestly never been anything but gentle to this thing for the past 11 months. I keep it in an extremely padded case and keep that inside my padded backpack, both of which I showed the genius. He asks me repeatedly if I ever dropped it, then tells me its not normal wear. I believe if you type 'Macbook crack' into Google you'll get more than a few results.

The genius then goes into his spiel of how its not covered under warranty at all, yet he will still cover it. Then explains how intensive the process is to replace the bottom casing (3-4 day process) and they need to order the parts. Give me the damn part and I'll have it done in an hour.

Since I'm going back to school tomorrow and the closest Apple Store to school is 2 1/2 hours away I told him it would have to wait until spring break. He got annoyed again, then printed up what looks to be a blank repair form that I am to present when I go back to get the laptop fixed.


Just being in the store made me want to get rid of my MacBook. They obviously went to aluminum because the damn plastic ones were cracking at an alarming rate, but they're going to tell me my specific case is not normal wear? I really do love the computer, but customer service and product durability are irritating me to the point that I would consider selling it.
