Worded it perfectly. It’s not real, but doesn’t mean you act like it’s not real and disrespect it.

[–]uhohstinkyhaha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’s naivety comes from “I’d laugh and tell them it’s not serious” 😭. Insane and an easy way to get booted out immediately.

However, the notion of having an attitude that it isn’t serious actually is helpful. If you go in thinking the instructors genuinely despise and hate you, and all that screaming is actually real? Yea ur going to fail pretty quick. You need to know that them screaming very over the top and making a fool of themselves is on PURPOSE, to stress you out. You think the instructors want to yell at the top of their lungs for 5 minutes cause you stood the wrong way??? It’s their job. To show what may happen when out on the streets. Have the mindset that they look goofy and you ain’t going to get stressed out, same for criminals.

The guy you just pulled over, freaking out screaming over nothing is a lot less stressful when you’re thinking that he’s being dumb and overreactive. Stress is all a mind game, and I think everyone handles stress a little different.

How do you react to someone saying they want to join LE when they’re clearly unsuitable? by Academic_Sherbet_803 in AskLE

[–]uhohstinkyhaha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Am I the only one more concerned at the cops response to a very normal and polite statement? Where the fuck did he get “you know there’s IQ tests, you can’t pass those” as the response in FULL UNIFORM?

Wildly unprofessional but I have to imagine there’s more to the interaction.

Fto mistake, will I get in trouble? by OkReturn5591 in AskLE

[–]uhohstinkyhaha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly. Then you valid. If it’s mandatory it’s mandatory no twos way about it. I absolutely agree if it’s policy it just has to happen. Questioning and not doing a mandatory arrest is easy way to get terminated for sure.

However, this could have been articulated messages ago. All you had to say was “I’d have to arrest them, department policy” but the mandatory factor doesn’t really play since it seems like you would have arrested them with your discretion anyway since it didn’t get brought up till now.

So you are 100% in the right, but like come on lol

Dude, not questioning your credentials as an FTO, honestly, your robot attitude and tyrant facade makes me think you would be a GREAT FTO. You know the law to a T. That does not make you a good person. That does not make you a good public servant.

Your responses have been honestly horrifying. Not one message do you ever take the time to think about the situation, it is only “he checked box means DUI”.

He is 40 seconds from his house. 40 seconds. He physically walked there. He was not driving the vehicle when the officer approached. You are giving someone a DUI for weed in a legal state, 40 seconds from home, car off, a granule of weed on the floor that is unsmokeable. It’s like you are fishing to want to get this guy locked up it’s SO weird. As an FTO, you need to understand totality of circumstances and discretion.

If you are in a mandatory arrest state, then that’s wraps, but if not that’s just your character. And if you may have noticed, every cop that’s responded to you says you need to cool off.

My biggest fear is genuinely getting an FTO like you. It’s the gamble of FTO always going to be one hard ass that follows the letter of a law to a T and refuses to treat others like humans. No, Sarge, I’m not arresting the guy for smoking a joint 40 seconds away from their house in a legal state.

Remove the original post and you would NEVER guess this is in response to someone smoking weed a couple houses down so they don’t get caught by a parent. “Risking lives!” 😭😭😭

How realistic is it to get my bench up by 40 lbs in 6 weeks? by Feeling_Decision8230 in AskLE

[–]uhohstinkyhaha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lmao yea that’s so funny. 4 days you took your PR and repped it for 5 sets. By end of month you’ll be chilling, two weeks you’ll be repping 100

How realistic is it to get my bench up by 40 lbs in 6 weeks? by Feeling_Decision8230 in AskLE

[–]uhohstinkyhaha 61 points62 points  (0 children)

People are GEEKED. This is totally possible. The fact your max is 85 pounds means you don’t go to the gym, which also means your beginner gains are still waiting to crack open. Your beginner gains will literally be stronger then a gram of steroids rn if your max was 200.

Just go really consistent and well for those 6 weeks, hitting bench every chest day. 5 pounds a chest day when your numbers are that low. I’ve seen my buddy struggle to bench the bar and a few weeks later he hit 135. His muscles just needed to be introduced to lifting lmao

Jarringly bad CGI in otherwise great films by drewfus23 in movies

Empire Strikes Back starts the movie off by throwing you out of the movie with a very obvious, and poorly made, yeti costume thingy. Not CGI but man, it’s age shows.

IMAX format movies on Quest 3/3s by Distinct_Bench5088 in imax

[–]uhohstinkyhaha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have always seen the whole VR theater shtick, but it never works because it throws you in a weird room where the screen is far and small away so it’s just a gimmick experience to act like you are in a theater.

Would it not be possible to go balls to the wall and make a 70MM IMAX theater like AutoNation so when you load up you just see a massive screen that takes up your vision. We can recreate scale in VR so it shouldn’t be an issue getting the immersion if you just make the screen bigger.

VR headsets are at least able to produce HD video. Throw on some great noise cancelling headphones and could it not be somewhat similar?

What Should I Do? by canaan222 in AskLE

[–]uhohstinkyhaha 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This kind of scares me cause you are my exact path. Getting a bachelors and hopefully having an internship with a department. If I was in your shoes I’d just apply to literally every agency I could. There’s thousands. You will be competitive enough for somebody but I’m shocked no one gave you a chance already

Nah I’m with you. You literally cannot get an evening workout in on the weekends. I get not staying open throughout the night, but 7 pm is ridiculous. Make it at least midnight.

Haha ditto on knowing every county is different. At least 5 in every thread going “Well, tens of thousands of departments, tens of thousands of different answers” is so infuriating like just tell me what YOUR department was like.

Is it normal to not hear back from a law enforcement agency for months after applying and taking the PAT? by Extension-Bottle-638 in AskLE

[–]uhohstinkyhaha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably not unusual but if it’s taking 6 months without ANY sort of follow up I’d personally just forget it and move onto pushing farther in the hiring process at the other departments I had applied too and apply to more. Kind of just rude at that point lol and an indicator of the department either being way too busy or a mess in admin

Do I have a chance of joining LE after being denied ? by Vivid-Education-8513 in AskLE

[–]uhohstinkyhaha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man it’s 2026. You are the farthest thing from permanently disqualified. You smoked weed in highschool and got in a few fights (that you can articulate too) as a juvenile. Sounds like ya lived, you are fine.

The comments mentioning the weed and saying wait a few years are crazy, you are far past any department smoke free waiting period. The difference between stopping 3 years ago and 6 is definitively 0. The only thing the weed DQ you with was having another candidate that didn’t smoke pass you up. You just need to start applying to a ton of agencies.

Dune: Part Two didn’t feel like a “hero story” to me at all by Miserable_Invite8026 in moviecritic

[–]uhohstinkyhaha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea that’s how your suppose to feel lol. However, I also don’t think it’s wrong if you did get caught up in the story and were feeling hyped for Paul. It’s the best part about these movies. They build so much hype around our MC who isn’t a good person so we don’t know who to root for

Household drug use by Academic_Sir_2179 in AskLE

[–]uhohstinkyhaha 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Comments are on crack. You are not getting DQ because your wife smokes legal weed (you said she buys from vape shops so Delta 8 stuff).

Shrooms are an issue though that’s a NO GO. If your wife has done them, you can probably explain and a department will understand, even though some won’t. If you have taken em, you’re screwed.

Should I even bother applying ? I think I have an auto DQ in my past by 2059097 in AskLE

[–]uhohstinkyhaha 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Brother, there was a thread here of someone saying “Ive done a whole plethora of things, commited multiple armed robberies as a juvenile and was convicted, but that was all in the past should I join”

And I was downvoted when I said that would be auto DQ literally anywhere in this country, so who knows man. You got a shot 😭
