Real-Life Trolling: U Mad, Montana?

I don't like assholes, and I have no problem being an asshole myself to those that deserve it.

I was in Montana this week, and had the chance to be an ass to a guy who pulled into a handicapped parking spot.

I was visiting a customer, and in my car.  I was getting my notes together, along with all the presentations I was going over, when I guy pull into the spot next to me.  It was a handicapped spot, and he didn't have any plates or placards on his car.  The lot was rather full, so he decided to take a spot that didn't belong to him instead of parking 100 feet away.

I'm not cool with that.  I glare him down as he enters the store, and I go in and do my business with my client.

20 minutes later, I'm coming out and his car is still there.  I see an old lady drive by, handicapped parking card in her car, looking for a spot.  Thanks to this douche, there is none.

At that point, I'm fed up.  I start taking pictures of his car, his license plate, etc. to take to the local police.  I'm busting this guy's ass.

And that's when he comes out.

Him:  "What the FUCK do you think you're doing!?"

So I tell him.  I call him an ass, and tell him it's not cool.

"Are you a COP?"  I tell him no, but I can still take these pictures to the police to make sure he gets a ticket...

That's when he starts to bargain.  Yelling and intimidation wasn't working, because I knew I could kick his ass if he started something.  So he starts to barter....

"Look man, if I give you $20, will you erase the pictures?"  He'd rather pay $20 to me than $100 to a ticket, and he started to tuck a $20 bill into my shirt pocket.

I like money, so I relented.  Besides, I don't know if the cops would even care or take my pictures as evidence.

But, it got me thinking...

How many people could I catch doing this, and could I get THEM to pay me instead of pay a ticket?  It's a $100 fine in Montana, and nobody likes to pay tickets...

I went to a different parking lot, and caught two other people doing it.  In the course of 90 minutes, I made sixty bucks.

And hopefully I taught three assholes a valuable lesson...

Problem, Montana?

Funny Idaho Laws (and I'm gonna break some)

I have seen other bloggers making posts of funny laws in their state, but I'm going to up the ante a little.

I'm going to break one of these laws this weekend.  And you're going to help me choose which one.

Here are a list of absurd laws found in Idaho:

- You may not fish on a camel’s back.

- Boise, ID:  Residents may not fish from a giraffe’s back.

- If a police officer approaches a vehicle and suspects that the occupants are engaging in sex, he must either honk, or flash his lights and wait for three minutes before approaching the car.

- Bicycles are not allowed in the tennis courts.

- Pocatello, ID:  A person may not be seen in public without a smile on their face.  (“It is prohibited for pedestrians and motorists to display frowns, grimaces, scowls, threatening and glowering looks, gloomy and depressed facial appearances, generally all of which reflect unfavorably upon the city’s reputation.”)

- Riding a merry-go-round on Sundays is considered a crime.

- A boy may only court a girl after obtaining written permission from her father.

- Children up to the age of 14 must have a certificate signed by their parents to testify that they regularly brush their teeth.

- Idaho Falls: It is illegal for anyone over the age of eighty-eight to ride a motorcycle. 

- You are not allowed to sleep in a dog kennel. (unless you are a dog)

- You can't buy or sell chickens after sundown without the sheriff's permission.

- Non-married couples in Idaho who engage in sexual intercourse can be jailed for up to six months.

- It is Illegal for a man to give his sweetheart a box of candy weighing less than fifty pounds.

To vote, leave a comment telling me which law you want to see me break.  I'm not over 88, so I can't do the motorcycle one.  And I'm not a police officer, so I can't do the sex one.  But you get the idea.  Vote for your favorite, and I'll post the results on Sunday.
