--- Quote from: themacnut on 12 Mar 2018, 08:49 ---C'mon shippers, y'all know Clinton is getting none of that; he never does, and likely never will. There'll just be the usual wacky hijinks, involving Clinton maybe getting close, but then circumstances or his own dweebness will torpedo his chances and he'll end up home alone as usual.

Clinton's going to be one of those people who watches others hook up while he simply can't. And will never be able to figure out why.

The thing about that is the simple fact it will stop being funny after a while. Its the sign of a lazy storyteller who just tells the same "joke" over and over again, and for all Jeph's faults, he isn't a lazy storyteller.

--- End quote ---
NO - I am pretty sure he was at a brisk walk at most though more likely at a leisurely stroll.

Just had a brain blast - now I am not sure if anyone has mentioned it before as yet - I remember that there was an action movie pop icon playing the part of a police officer that ended up knitting as a stress releiver - rats were involved in the story at some point but no trash pandas as far as I can recall.

Cause I am so down.

--- End quote ---
Actually, since she works for the Mass State Police, it's Trooper Basilisk.  But I very much agree, they'll make a most, ah, interesting pair.  (I still hope Mrs. Punchbot turns out to be a high level human academic.)

Interesting. That's one way to put it.

You're thinking of Demolition Man. Sylvester Stallone's character had been subliminally programmed to knit as a 'peaceful release of violent impulses' whilst in a cryogenic suspension pod. Other features of the film world were non-contact sex through brain-to-brain wireless networking (which is something I could see happening in QC), printers everywhere spitting out fines for public cussing and toilets that need a BSc in electronics to figure out how they work.

--- Quote from: dexeron on 12 Mar 2018, 05:41 ---Isn't it a firing infraction for most law enforcement agencies for officers to go out drinking (and getting drunk) while still wearing their uniforms?
--- End quote ---

O'Malley and Roko aren't wearing their badges. They're in partial uniform but could argued to not be on duty as they don't have their badges or weapons. It's the way actors and actresses get around it - So long as they're not wearing a badge off-set or off-lot, then they're not 'impersonating a police officer'.

--- End quote ---

I am far from an expert, but if it's against the rules to drink in uniform, then I very seriously doubt that you could get around it this way.
