- SavageBlackCat, on 12/17/2007, -30/+446After the man surrendered and was handcuffed he got tasered - just in case.
- drmangrum, on 12/17/2007, -4/+313It has to be real, you just can't make ***** like that up.
- FishHammer, on 12/17/2007, -8/+212holy ***** an article that doesn't portray the police as soulless tazer wielding murder machines? digg I'm very disappointed in you.
- bossm4n, on 12/17/2007, -10/+199Olly olly oxen free!
- ispellkonfusion, on 12/17/2007, -0/+98I believe this simply because I've called out "Marco" in a grocery store while looking for my friend, only to have a complete stranger answer "Polo."
- tillerman00, on 12/17/2007, -0/+95"The restaurant manager stepped out of the shadows. His lank silhouette stood motionless in the doorway, the shape of a bowler hat delineated by the light from a farther room. Officer Hutchins swallowed hard. "Polo," the dark figure said again, voice thick with sarcasm. "Jesus Christ," Hutchins gasped.
"Oh, yes, Mr. Hutchins. The game we began twenty years ago in Johannesburg in 1947 ends here at the Russell Hotel. And just think, until now you'd thought yourself the coolest cop ever."
Hutchins shook his head nervously. "No, no, Sweinborg," he sais obsequiously, "you know I'd never self-apply that epithet. Some Digger called me that to get his story dugg up higher on the site, that's all."
"How unfortunate," Sweingold mocked. "Now you'll be known as the deadest cop ever."
Hutchins gave a weak laugh. "Marco?" he queried hopefully.
"Polo. Polo, indeed."
Gunshots. - karlhouser, on 12/17/2007, -4/+77Marcus Polo was a murderer in the early 17th century. He would ridearound in full gladiator armor attacking american colonies and also whatever europe was doing at the time. As he rode towards his intended victoms (There would often be 15-30 at a time), swinging his flail, (Which was a ball on a chain covered in one thousad swords, which were covered in aids, in case he only nicked someone) He would shout out "Whats my name, Bitch???" Legend had it if you yelled "Marcus Polo!" he would spare you. He wouldn't, but that was the legend.
And so, to this day, if any one yells "Marcus!" someone else must yell "Polo!" whithin one minute, or their head will explode. - wolferz, on 12/17/2007, -4/+76see i was gona refrain from bringing this up but between your comment and the massive number of diggs you got i've decided to any way.
I half way expected this to be a pic of a cop smoking weed or some such, which irritates me. It seems the cops are only the good guys when they break the law but never when they are enforcing it. A friend of mine recently commented that police are *****. I asked him to explain why and his response was "because they abuse their power." I asked him to prove that all or even most cops abuse their power and he got irritated at me.
I get that a lot. The whole people irritated at me when I don't instantly agree with them out of hand. But it illustrates a point. Most police officers I've had to deal with, even when arresting me, where quite polite as long as I was polite back. You ask, "How can I be polite to some one that is arresting me?" "Simple," I respond. Cause I'm not self deluded enough to think it's the police's fault I got caught. They are just doing the job they are paid to do and whether that job is right or wrong doesn't really matter. If you treat a police officer with respect most of them will do the same for you. People who don't see that are ether self deluded or sheep. - veriix, on 12/17/2007, -7/+76The suspect proceeded to say "fish out of water" while drop-kicking the officer.
- jgrommersch, on 12/17/2007, -2/+62No it just goes to show that some people can't resist some of the greatest games of their childhood. It was probably like" Polo! Aw ***** me."
- suprfli, on 12/17/2007, -1/+57It's like the Roger Rabbit movie where the villian kept saying and then knocking, "Shave and a hair cut!" Roger couldn't resist responding back, "2 PENCE!!!"
- briansearles, on 12/17/2007, -16/+71This is Digg, cops can't be cool, they tase everybody.
- Nougat, on 12/17/2007, -0/+52Because McCain responded "Polo."
- Jacob3d, on 12/17/2007, -9/+47Polo
- missingnoh4x, on 12/17/2007, -2/+36Hey! You're supposed to have your eyes closed!
- terminal157, on 12/17/2007, -0/+29"Correct" is whatever the kids playing say it is. There are no adult language rules to kid jargon.
- sean1562, on 12/17/2007, -1/+29we used to just say "***** can come out now"
- jon30041, on 12/17/2007, -1/+27*standing ovation*
Get this on BROADWAY! - r00tus3r, on 12/17/2007, -1/+27Buried for being too quick to correct someone when they aren't wrong.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olly_olly_oxen_free - dotcom101010, on 12/17/2007, -20/+45he should have responded with a 50 cal with armor piercing rounds and then said polo mother *****.
- juicebag, on 12/17/2007, -0/+24I see your sarcasm detector is broken. You should get it checked.
- DiggzDE, on 12/17/2007, -0/+23Why is it that "Olly olly oxen free" makes more sense to me then "All the, all the outs in free"?
- adml_shake, on 12/17/2007, -2/+24Well obviously he did it in the next paragraph. It just got cut short.
- Hurdy, on 12/17/2007, -0/+22Thanks...and as you probably have noticed, not everyone in here is from the US. No need to "loose" your temper.
- waahooo, on 12/17/2007, -4/+26Master Chief?
- inactive, on 12/17/2007, -1/+22My answer is C... not enough information to answer the question.
- trajomoreno, on 12/17/2007, -1/+22I thought it was "2 Bits."
- TheGameAddict, on 12/17/2007, -2/+20Shut up.
- LowFuel, on 12/17/2007, -3/+20Or maybe the suspect was innocent and didn't mind being found?
- missingnoh4x, on 12/17/2007, -6/+23Wow, the Paul spammers aren't even trying anymore to find far-fetched ways to connect his campaign to the topic at hand. Just keep it in the Ron Paul-related articles, okay?
- r00tus3r, on 12/17/2007, -1/+18Or maybe it's a new sentence that isn't directly related.
- DSGalvin, on 12/18/2007, -1/+17I'm waiting for the Bel-Air...
- abbelito, on 12/18/2007, -0/+16Why didn't they try this when they were looking for Bin Laden in the caves?
- SgtPeppers, on 12/17/2007, -3/+18aids
- crazycracker911, on 12/17/2007, -2/+17I agree wolferz.It's really about the fact that the're mad because they were caught.True personal and social responsibilty seems to be the underlining issue here.
- bagboyrebel, on 12/17/2007, -2/+15Fish out of water!
- Appox, on 12/17/2007, -3/+16I see you
- tyme, on 12/17/2007, -1/+14Either you've never played "marco polo" or you tried to make a joke, and just looked stupid instead...
- Lassan, on 12/17/2007, -1/+14And yours isn't one of them...
- endlessoul, on 12/17/2007, -1/+13It was two bits. Pence may have been from a UK version.
- JorgeGT, on 12/17/2007, -5/+17USA... a peaceful land, I see.
- RedX117, on 12/17/2007, -3/+15Guess nobody else reads the novels aroundhere huh...
- Bronowyn, on 12/17/2007, -8/+20Watch yourself... the commentors on that site have NSFW icons.
- AdmiralKarelia, on 12/18/2007, -0/+11That was eerily awesome.
- Brian48216, on 12/17/2007, -3/+14It's a shame I can only give you one digg. You deserve so much more.
It's like digg is flooded with a bunch of angsty 16 year olds who want to proclaim "the man" is keeping them "down" - xtc46, on 12/17/2007, -1/+12oddly... I have heard someone in a grocery store yell out marco, and I a complete stranger have responded "Polo" without even thinking.
Do you live in Hawaii, or are there just tons of awesome people around? - inactive, on 12/17/2007, -0/+11http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marco_Polo_(game)
- phre3k187, on 12/17/2007, -3/+14who cares, both sayings are stupid.
