You guys will love this. ROFL.
My friend has a rescued lab that she walks twice a day because the animal is pretty feisty.

Today, she was walking her on a dead end street next to the high school my kids go to, as well as her daughter.

She was walking along, minding her own business when a police car pulled up and asked "Is that your minivan parked down the street?" (Full disclosure: Said minivan is a silver Odyssey covered in stickers and magnets indicating that she has kids and pets)

She says: "Yes, is there a problem?"

Officer: "No, ma'am, we just wanted to make sure it wasn't Al Qaeda".

Not. Shitting. You.

He didn't say 'terrorist', or 'burglar' or 'rapist' or 'stalker' or anything like that. He said Al Qaeda.

She replies: "I'm pretty sure that they can't spell (name of our town) let alone find it.


I'm still laughing.

2. That is seriously bizarre.
Even if the van WERE suspicious, you WOULD think "kidnapper" or "burglar" before freaking AL QAEDA...wouldn't you?

:wtf:

4. Apparently, we're next on the list.
:rofl:

Our crimes here range from speeding to stop sign violations to kids stealing beer out of people's garage fridges. It's too funny.

10. Okay, well...that raiding the beer fridge thing is pretty damned serious!
Nobody had better raid my beer fridge (currently stocked with Sam Adams Summer Ale, Anderson Valley Summer Solstice, Sierra Nevada Summerfest, Mike's Light Hard Lemonade, Mike's Light Hard Cranberry Lemonade, a case of Dasani, diet Pepsi with lime, Tropicana lemonade, Minute Maid Light Cherry Limeade, regular Coke, and two cartons of milk - that's some serious inventory)!

:P

because it's so unbelievable. She was laughing so hard, I could hardly understand her.

22. She's pretty apolitical, unlike me.
She's got three or four stickers/magnets that refer to the dog and then a bunch about the kids.

29. That Al Quida is a funny man.
He's kind of the Ashton Kutcher of the middle east - you never know when he might be planning some elaborate prank.

33. LOL. I have one brother who looks just like a Middle Eastern terrorist
right down to the mumbling to himself, but does he ever get stopped by the TSA? Nope. The last two times I've flown, I had to be 'more thoroughly searched', along with BabyMidlo.

:wtf:

36. I just knew Honda was asking for trouble...
...when they named the Odyssey "Official minivan of international terrorism" a few years back. I know niche marketing is in, but that was pushing it.
