Cops
Fearless Fosdick TV Show
A show derived from a parody within a newspaper comic strip--and using puppets.
That's meta!

Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers Film
Alas, some four years after this teaser, the film seems no nearer to completion.

Which Way Did They Go?
You are out at an Easter egg hunt and you see a police helicopter searching the area. Then you see two men running away, what do you do? These kids knew just what to do. They formed an arrow on the ground to point the police in the right direction. Yes, the cops got the criminals. Great job kids!

Can’t Fix Stupid
Using lights and siren to jump to the front of the fast food drive-thru line is sketchy behaviour as a cop. But when you aren't and an off duty real cop sees you its a felony. Oh and he admitted to the arresting officer that he uses the lights and sirens to beat red lights as well.

Poopy Trap
In Vienna, Austria someone set a bucket full of feces to explode when a line was tripped at a spot where police regularly park to watch for speeders. The police officer who tripped it was covered in poo from six and a half feet away. He wasn't injured except perhaps his dignity.
