HANGING WITH THE STATE POLICE

61850308269__BCB1B9C5-5849-48A9-9C1F-36B4FD4957F9.jpeg

Not often I get an hour of standing outside with 50 or so strangers. I’m currently at the State Police HQ to get background checked (please don’t check the 90’s, please don’t check the 90’s) and the people watching is exquisite. I’m not taking any good pics of these folks because that’s just rude and likely illegal. Given my location I’ll just use my time to hone my elucidation.  That’s nerd speak for description. 

To make it fun I’ll try and do it like an eyewitness account of a crime that’s taking place. Mostly to prove that eyewitness accounts are the most fallible of accounts. I’ll just keep describing until I get called back. Also, can I get into Murphy’s with this arm band?

These were the first ones to catch my attention .

-Male,mid 30’s, 2’9, 220lbs. Red hair with ears pierced and sideburns that say “I really love Fred Durst.” Navy pants. Black and red Geico shirt. Neon green and black trucker hat. Someone needs to give him a color wheel. Tats on arms and hand, snakes or some shit. No mask. Probably looking to Keep America Great. Loves Hooters (okay this is an assumption). Also. He stood up. Turns out he’s  5’9. 

-Female. Pregnant with white snakeskin purse and felt hat. What kind of snake is white with black markings. Keep away from those fuckers. 30’s. This hat is also favored by young hipster girls who are trying too hard. Grey, round brim with a thin taupe ribbon. Blond braids that make me want braids. They are killer. Kind of a white bleached out look. Dig it. Glasses, gold hoop earrings. White shirt with thin black stripes. Some sort of slides, I’m betting size 8.5. Perhaps not wearing pants, but probably is, I’m sitting behind her and can only make unsubstantiated assumptions.  Medical style mask. Thanks for that. She stood up. Not pregnant actually 60. 

-Male, 50’s or 60’s, 5’6 200. Cane with elaborate paracord braidwork. If we need to lash together a raft or beat off a crowd, he’s my guy.  Graying  black beard and glasses. Woven fedora with a blue and red 3in tall feather. Windowpane shirt, cream with tan and blue cm sized panes, jeans, knife in pocket black leather phone holster, friendly  eyes,  blue mask and....welp they called my name if he decides to whack someone with that cane, this will have to be enough. 

Note to self. Raise hat game, I look like a Limp Biskit fan....

Carry on with your Friday.
