Rough tough police cream puff

[Tilas]

Just thought this was amusing. Had an RCMP Officer come into work today to ask a few questions (nothing serious), and while we're talking he is of course maintaining "the look". Yknow, the stand tall, speak with authority, "I'm a cop" type posture.

Then he sees my candy bowl, and suddenly I have a big 6 foot tall KID in my office.

"OHH! Lollipops! Can I have one? Please?!"

So of course I say yes, and he just started digging through the bowl to find the flavor he wants and instantly pops it into his mouth with a big smile on his face. Then he's all "Ahh!! These are AMAZING! Where did you GET them!?" so I told him, and he pretty much wraps up the conversation, so he can go buy a box for himself. I think I just made his day.

Oh, and for the record, they were Jolly Rancher Lollipops.

Hah- that's great!

LOL!  I love it when tough guys break their facade.

Well, we all know the need for sugar far outweighs the need for authority.

lol LOVE IT!

i have a g4 pony that goes around with me to my different work stations*changes daily sometimes* and one day i had this big guy come up and was all gruff and kind of barking out what he wanted so i was just smiling and getting him to get to the point of what he was needing, then he just kind of stops talking and i see he's looking towards my keyboard and it all goes belly up ...

"is ... is ... is that Dewdrop Dazzle? I have to aske where you found her? My daughter needs her something fierce."  I almost lost it right then and there, but I kindly told him a few places to try and find her but that she was a bit older and harder to find and that if he couldn't find her to just let me know.  He came back the next day, of course I wasn't at that station, but I peeked my head out when i heard the "voice" and he gave me a bag of jellybeans (what i had been descretly munching on when he came in the previous day lol) and told me had had found Dewdrop and a few others she needed lol so now every time he comes in he looks for the "pony lady" and usually brings a treat of some kind i share with the office lmao

tough guys are so cute lol

That's adorable.  Most cops are actually pretty nice if you talk to them, they just seem scary.  And everyone loves lollypops! 

[Saja]

Awww that is so cute.

There's been this security guard posted near my house watching over this building that's tied up with it might be demolished it might not. He's been posted there since the summer and he has three dogs, two sniffer dogs and one 'proper' guard dog and he's actually really friendly and my brother an I talk to him most days.
