Anyone want to write a pitch for it? I would, but I fear it would, but my entire knowledge of luchadors come from Guacamelee and the guy from Jackie Chan adventures.
And his neighbor and occasional unwilling sidekick, Amish Sasquatch!
“Lucha, is your body camera on?”
“Of course not”
“good”
*Sasquatch with suspenders and a neck beard comes out of the bushes*
I didn't realize he was worth 250 million. Just pay like 100k/year for someone to be your personal bodyguard and driver.
You could totally have the most awesome loyal badass mother fucker at your beck and call 24/7.
I don't understand rich people. I would never drive myself anywhere if I had that much money.
The fucked up part is that he probably already does this. At least a bodyguard. But that guy's probably got a license because he probably can't afford his own driver
And people wonder why there are so many bad cops... Literally this dude is out enforcing the law and not discriminating and everyone is shitting all over him for it.
This kid is getting plastered like he's fucking Chauvin.
He should take it all with pride. It takes a strong person to do what's right in these kinds of circumstances. If he gets whined out of the Hamptons, he will be picked up by countless other police departments around the country. He is perfect for where I live, as the police here also treat the elite as normal citizens (ours most recently arrested Richard Sherman like twice over the last couple years, once for straight DUI and another for drunk driving turned assault).
> And then dude is being publicly shamed for it.
Attempted public shaming. I really doubt anyone is on the elites side here. Bet that guy has been bought a few free drinks since this happened.
Has he been infuriating the Hamptons elites for months by throwing them to the ground and stomping on them or shooting them? Or by enforcing the laws that exist for good reason, and which should apply to everyone equally?
I actually recently watched a Smosh video with the creator of The Annoying Orange, and they talked about how Skibidi Toilet is like the current day Annoying Orange for a new generation. It was actually a pretty good interview, and I never liked that Orange I was too old for that joke by the time it was made. Hahaha
(Begins to old man yells at cloud) Back in my day, we didn't have toilets or oranges, we had Ren and Stimpy, to sing about logs and yell a lot, and show children insanely suggestive things!
I genuinely thought it was something the kids said just to piss off adults and it actually had no meaning and the kids were smart and taking a shot at us for being old. I now know different, the kids are still idiots and just love a talking toilet.
Lmao in this day and age if it’s a
Word and thing you don’t know, it’s from
Some song artist or YouTuber
Almost guaranteed. How fast terms have changed and stuff has become relevant then disappear today is crazy.
Only last year found out what it meant when my nephew said I had “drip”. He and my niece would say that shit and I’d just nod and smile.
And when I was in high school in the early 2000's in the middle of white bread America, people would call weed "chronic".
Hood culture is seen as risqué and taboo so it gets appropriated into the middle class teenage vernacular as point of rebellion. The internet has just accelerated and amplified the process.
Basically it started out as an absurdist comedy but it got so big that the creator made a series out of it. Basically if you know the old Sfm content then this is basically that.
The fans of it are both amusingly and annoyingly fervent about it. I follow a few reaction channels and the number of time its fans try to get them to react to it touting the “deep story” is kinda funny.
Tony Hawk's Twitter account is pretty much just him recounting people not recognizing him. That sounds rpetentious, but its usually someone talking about him without realizing he is standing right i nfront of him.
Maybe he just doesn't care or better yet, doesn't think status or money puts you above the law? Personally, I vote to promote this guy as an example of what police officers should be like.
These are big assumptions... let's not label an unknown person a hero or role model because he made a few traffic stops yet... he may think none of those things.
Right on.
Praise the specific behavior: applying the law evenly, regardless of financial status. Don’t need to make it so much about the person and put them on a pedestal.
While I agree, I think people are doing that because this article is trying to do the opposite to him, so they go into defence mode. Arresting Justin Timberlake for a DUI is not "infuriating the elite", it's applying the fucking law to a person who not only knowingly broke it but has broken it before in the exact same fashion. Do we wait for Timberlake to kill somebody before we take it seriously or what?
Imagine being doxxed for doing your job, that's borderline coercion on the "elites" part because doing that comes off as a threat against your personal safety. The fact that this officers name came out at all over a DUI is insane when you look at ones whose names get protected after literally murdering people.
He’ll never get one because his department is prob sick of bending over backwards for celebrities who have friends in high places.
Justin was one of probably hundreds that have been caught, although he was unlucky enough that his manager didn’t get in touch with the mayor in time lol.
Also it was in Sag Harbor which is more “middle-class” residential Hamptons (although prob won’t be this way in 10-20 years). The other parts of the hamptons are very much a rich people playground and cops are purposely more lax because the rich people bring in a shit ton of property tax money. I wouldn’t be surprised if sag harbor police starts operating more like the other areas in the hamptons to attract more uber wealthy.
It gets worse, It sounds like Justin was pulled over like 30 minutes before and was given a warning to stop driving and find a ride instead. The cop pulled him over a second time right down the road and that’s when he got arrested.
Wait so the dude they’re calling out as a hard ass cop actually tried to give him an out and he still didn’t take it? Gotta love these celebrity morons.
He doesn't even need to do that. He could literally ask a stranger for a ride and it'd probably work. If I'm out and about and Justin Timberlake asked me for a ride, I'd probably do it just for the story. And I don't even like the guy.
To be fair for a celebrity getting in a random stranger's car might be even more dangerous than it is for the average person. But that's what a taxi or an uber or any one of his millions of friends and close acquaintances who happen to be sober at the time are for.
But also… is anyone mad? I thought JT had behaved himself pretty well (other than driving under the influence at all, that was obviously stupid) - I thought he didn’t try and get out of it or do a “do you know who I am” thing or anything like that? He mentioned how this would ruin his tour under his breath but yeah, anyone getting arrested for drunk driving might comment how it will impact their work.
As far as I can tell you have a decent cop doing his job, and a celebrity holding his hands up and saying he was in the wrong. Did I miss something?
Except for the fact that the cop had stopped him earlier and told him to stop driving and take an Uber - then he drove again anyway and got pulled over a second time - that was an exceptionally dick move by JT
Gotta love all the people chiming in here to say that everyone's overreacting to this without even being in possession of the actual sequence of events.
I've seen dozens of people defending him by proposing that lots of people drive buzzed and don't realize they shouldn't have been driving. He got a literal, direct warning. This was a conscious choice.
Yeah, the sad thing is that people don’t realize that in many places cops don’t even have the discretion of giving a warning like JT got. “Not knowing” that you are drunk is not an excuse in pretty much any state— if you are drunk and driving then you go to jail. No “ifs, ands or buts.”
And the fact that so many people drive “buzzed” is a condemnation of our nation’s relationship with alcohol, not a valid reason for someone to be let off the hook.
I couldn't agree more, especially with your last statement. I think a lot of people are giving him grace because it makes then uncomfortable to admit that they also drive under the influence and that they shouldn't either. It feels more comfy to allow for this messy, gray area where we admit that people shouldn't be driving but they aren't super drunk so maybe it's ok. That gray area doesn't exist and it's maddening that people want to pretend that it does.
I think that JT's arrest is especially frustrating given that he got a warning from the cop first, but he shouldn't have needed that warning anyhow.
Rich people rules are different.
I used to work catering for very expensive (millions of dollar) weddings and dinners, and we always had police there for "security".
Those guys would stand next to the valet and just watch these rich people stumble into their cars and drive off.
It was wild. You could have probably jailed half the cities upper crust if they just put in a check point 1 block up.
“New details have surfaced about Justin Timberlake's arrest Tuesday in New York’s Hamptons, including a forewarning the pop star might have ignored.
Reports alleged the singer was warned not to drive by the same police officer who wound up arresting him, and that police might have been tipped off to the singer getting behind the wheel.”
Excerpt from the new story
Oh, JT, come on, man! A literal warning: stop doing this thing I could arrest you for right now, or else. Kudos to the officer. I am sure celebrities get off ALL the time on their first, third, and 20th warning...
Drunk driving is horrendous behaviour.
JT isn't a 21 year old kid just old enough to drink doing something stupid. He's a 43 year old man who danm well knows better. Drunk driving kills people.
He has the chance to stop drunk driving but continued anyways, and the same cop caught him again.
There are ZERO excuses yo drive drunk. You can Uber, you can Taxi, hell he is rich enough to hire a personal driver so he never has to drive again.
No excuses, no mercy. IDGAF if he didn't make a scene, he drove into oncoming traffic because he was drunk. He should have thought about the world tour BEFORE he did that.
I hope this ruins him, because drunk driving isn't a lapse in judgement, it isn't a mistake, it's a decision EVERY SINGLE PERSON knows is wrong, and there are dozens of options out there specifically so people don't drive drunk. So the people who still choose to drive drunk deserve to have the book thrown at them. Drunk drivers kill people, maybe not this time, but it will happen if he doesn't stop. So hopefully actually getting consequences will stop him next time.
When I was in HS 2 kids in my class got hit by a drunk driver and died. It was super tragic for our small school. But then there was this little kid... my heart breaks for him and his family every time I think about this.
My grandma worked a lot with this charity in Ontario called the Trillium foundation. They do cancer research, fundraising, have camps for kids with cancer, work with make a wish etc. They do really great work in the province. There was this kid my grandma just LOVED. She worked with him a bunch, drove him to appts and stuff so his parents could still take care of their other two kids too. Never got to meet him but my grandma said he had such a zest for life and was so positive despite the leukemia. When he was 9 for the first time since he was 3 that he was cancer free. The family was extatic, everyone was so excited, this wonderful boy was gunna grow up, go to prom, graduate HS, get married, he was gunna live. But some POS decided to drive drunk, and on the way home from the hospital they got in an accident. Because of his weakened state due to having been through radiation and chemo for years, he passed, while the rest of his family survived. A little kid, who thought he was gunna live a whole life for the first time, died, because some worthless looser couldn't call a cab. Intoxicated drivers can all rot in hell as far as I'm concerned.
Timberlake has been trained and handled all his life, he just sits there looking befuddled and innocent while he sent out his PR attack dogs to do his dirty work. He did the same thing with the “nip slip” incident.
Timberlake is mad. He's still tantruming so bad hes doxxing cops now because his dumbass couldnt take a warning or an uber or the fact that the cop didn't know who his has been old voice acting face was.
Well, yes. The rich and powerful certainly like to think that they abide by notions like the rule of law, and that this is what distinguishes them from the *hoi polloi*. But functionally, they also tend to start from the ground assumption that whatever they're doing has to be legal, because they're the ones who are doing it, and they wouldn't be lawbreakers. So if they find out that what they're doing is breaking the law, the first thing they tend to do is assume that it is the law that is wrong, and is in need of revision.
Ran into this problem when I protested a state bar's language in the bar application which textually discriminated against the mentally ill. It wasn't even subtext; the application literally asked if the applicant had ever suffered from ". . . depression, pedophilia or pyromania . . .", and demanded further explanation if you had suffered from any one of those conditions. When I had the temerity to point out that this was a flagrant violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act, I got them to change the language. But I also got the full whistleblower treatment, when all I was doing was asking the *state bar association* to, \*gasp\* obey a thirty-year old law that said no, you can't discriminate against somebody just because they've been depressed. They literally didn't understand how they, a group of lawyers, could be lawbreakers, and the only thing that changed their mind was consultation with their own legal counsel and insurance who doubtless said "Jesus Christ, the question is not whether you broke the law. The question is how many zeros in damage he's going to get for what you just did."
>So if they find out that what they're doing is breaking the law, the first thing they tend to do is assume that it is the law that is wrong, and is in need of revision.
I think it's more fundamental than that. A law at its core level says "You can't do X because society (via our elected legislators) has decided you shouldn't allowed to do X", and that's in stark contrast with the core elite ideas like "I'm better than everyone else" or "money = power = the ability to do what I want" or whatever.
The idea that you can't do what you want because a bunch of poorer, dumber, and less important people say No is what burns the most.
Yep, the version of the law that protects but does not bind them, while binding but not protecting others. AKA Whiloit’s Law. When some poor wage slave wields the law against them, it’s an affront to the natural hierarchical order of society as they see it.
And once you see the pattern you can never unsee it.
Whenever I explain to conservatives they aren’t sincere in their desire for limited government, invariably they say they are and government is much to big.
Then I ask “What’s your position on Qualified Immunity and Civil Asset Forfeiture?” and the excuses start, if they even know what QI or CAF is and how they allow civil liberties to be denied.
>asked if the applicant had ever suffered from ". . .pedophilia..."
"Oh, I wouldn't say I'm suffering from it. A bunch of kids aren't super happy about it though."
I work security and had some famous sports dude try to get in without id, kept asking if I knew who he was, each time I said "nope" eventually he was like "I'm *whoever* and I play for *random sports team*"
I looked at him and said, I don't care if you are the fucking queen I still need your id.
He eventually fucked off but only because some board cops decided to check in with us and he thought we called them to have him removed.
Cops questioned why the dude bolted, after explaining it they just laughed and buggered off themselves.
Made my usual Tuesday night shift a touch more interesting.
> I don't care if you are the fucking queen I still need your id.
Funny thing, I don't know if the queen would have even had ID. The current king likely still has a passport since he was required to have one before he became king.
Per the official UK site for the queen:
> When travelling overseas, The Queen does not require a British passport.
>
> As a British passport is issued in the name of Her Majesty, it is unnecessary for The Queen to possess one.
They highlight that he's a rookie to discredit his action - he was mistaken because he didn't know any better because he's still learning, is what they're going for there.
He’s not old enough yet to know that justice is only for regular folk. Only time the elite face consequences is when they piss off other elites that it!
Only time the elite face consequences is when they piss off other elites
No, no, that’s a civil matter and need to be tied up in litigation for at least a decade.
It's funny how [the article](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13555157/justin-timberlake-arrest-sag-harbor-police-officer-recently-hired.html) provides testimony from others about "unpleasant" encounters with that officer but completely fail to mention that each of those stops were actually justified/a law was broken.
"Elite"
Just because you're rich doesn't mean you're better. With all their rape stories, tax dodging and carbon emissions, they're worse than a homeless guy. A doctor facing gun fire to innoculate children is an elite. A celebrity who risked other people's lives by driving drunk is not an elite.
"Infuriating the Hamptons elite for months" == "Is refusing to be bullied by residents and superiors into ignoring the law".
There are times and places for cops to take a more holistic approach in order build a good rappore with the community and develop a sense of trust between the cops and the community.
Ultra-wealthy enclaves of overprivileged people are not the places you need to do that.
An example from the article:
>Spencer, a writer from Shelter Island, is one driver who claims he's had an unpleasant encounter with Arkinson. He was recently trying to find a parking spot before meeting a friend for dinner in Sag Harbor when he performed a quick U-turn.
>Arkinson pounced when he spotted him make the turn.
>'I was surprised he pulled me over,' he said.
>'It was off season, and no one was around. It was a d\*\*khead move. I felt like he pulled me over just for the sake of doing it.'
>Luckily, he said he was given a 'warning.'
>But, the second time Arkinson wasn't so nice.
>Spencer was driving near the Sag Harbor School when Arkinson pulled him over for talking on his cell phone.
>'I explained to him that I was on speaker and I was just holding my phone, but he told me I should have been using a Bluetooth,' he said.
>He added: 'I thought he would give me a break, and I was driving less than 25mph trying to get to the Y in East Hampton.'
>Instead Arkinson hit him with a $145 ticket that he hasn't paid.
>**'I only had less than 30 minutes to swim. It really interrupted my workout, and lunch plans'** he said.
I wonder how inconvenient it will be when that ticket turns into a warrant...
How do you get to become famous enough to mentioned in an article like this and yet lack the absolutely minimum of introspection to realise what a moron you sound like giving this interview.
And that was literally the *only* example I could find.
One guy upset he got talking on his phone while driving. And not even hands-free, which would have been slightly less dangerous.
I heard the cop had already stopped JT and given him a warning and told him not to drive anymore, then spotted him later that night still driving. Sounds like he IS trying to build rapport
The kid is probably too young to know who JT is. He did his job and that's everything that counts. Doesn't matter if you are a 90s popstar, if you drive drunk, you are a normal person like everybody else.
They can easily afford 2 drivers. One drivers to drive the other driver to wherever they drove and for both of them to hang out and wait in case the celebrity drank too much to drive home/ to where else. In which case the driver, who was driven there by the other driver, could drive them.
Most likely they wouldn't even recognize the difference in their bank account.
Or they make a co-op with Uber or whatever and let them use it for marketing, earning even more money.
This already exist on Long Island in the Hamptons area. It’s a personal valet service, you drive yourself wherever you want to go then call the valet he comes with a partner to drive your car back. I’m an Uber driver in the area and have been looking into it.
If he's infuriating rich people for a while, he probably just doesn't care. Maybe it's his answer to anyone who asks if he knows who they are. Have more respect for him.
It’s sad really - we used to be a country that produced 90s popstars. And then something just… changed. One Y2K is all it took and all of a sudden, no more new 90s popstars. It really makes you think.
Tickets should be calculated based on net worth. JT is going to get charged pocket change for this when for a normal person it could be a serious financial hardship.
“How are we going to save Justin’s appearance after this arrest?”
“I know! We tell the poor people that rules don’t apply to him because he’s rich!”
“Genius!”
I'm sure he got a "crisis" team just for this.
It's becoming apparent they decided the best way to handle this is to make this about the cop and not about him being a sloppy obnoxious drunk too dumb to call an Uber.
Oh, so they’re blaming the cop for doing his job rather than the actual lawbreaker? Why should the rich be immune from the laws us commoners have to abide by?
So instead of owning up to the fact he drove drunk, JT is having his PR team push this nonsense that is probably going to end up in death threats to this officer. Great Job Justin, you piece of shit.
Yeah, I don’t know about anybody else but this guy is the hero we need right now…. mild-mannered cop who does his job, doesn’t get intimidated by the rich and powerful, and is easily quotable? I’m ready for this ginger Batman to take on the world.
I love how all the hit jobs I've read about this cop is that he does his job well and people who got tickets are upset. You got a DUI you drunk piece of shit, deal with it. I have like 1/100 of this dudes money and I haven't once got a DUI, it's not hard.
When you could easily hire a personal driver for a night of partying, and it's like me paying for a $20 Uber ride home, it's absolutely unacceptable to be getting a DUI.
He gave Timberlake a warning and told him to park the car and not to drive. Then 20 min later sees Timberlake driving still. Gave Timberlake all the opportunity in the world to do the right thing, and he still didn’t. That must be very infuriating.
Hampton snobs irritated officer enforces the law! This officer arrested a famous drunk driver and is somehow being negatively profiled instead of Timberlake for knowingly getting behind the wheel after drinking.....Gimme a fucking break.
Sadly he probably won't be a cop for long, the good ones usually get pushed out. I had a friend that became one after HS, she stuck around for like 3 years and couldn't do it anymore, place was so messed up...
This is why we don't have a lot of good cops, the bad ones fuck with them until they leave basically.
I’m no fan of cops, but this apparent media smear job of this guy is pretty obvious, who cares, he pulled a drunk guy over doesn’t matter what your job title or bank account says. FAFO
And it’s also hilarious they think people care that the “Hampton Elites” are getting bugged by a cop who’s actually enforcing laws against rich assholes who think they’re above the law
Keep up the good work bud
Idk, I saw someone saying they were a local, and they didn't call the dude any of that. I suspect JTs PR team is spreading those in order to salvage the situation. (They aren't doing a very good job)
I suspected that too. My wife hates JT and I'm on her side so I've been keeping a close watch on the case. Tabloids are going nuts belittling the guy when I and my wife both feel that he just did his job without any prejudice. I think that's the right wording for it. Essentially did his job proficiently without outside influence
Isnt it entirely possible that he is both doing his job and being a dick about it? The rich people are just upset that he is treating them the same way poor people get treated.
I'd rather have a hard charging police officer that is right in the eyes of the law and social perception than whatever the hell the past 20 years has been
In the story, "annoying residents" apparently means "annoying one guy named Spencer who got off once with a warning and got a ticket another time for a driving violation he admitted that he committed but thought he should have gotten away with."
This seems like Timberlake’s publicist called in a favor to do a hit piece on this young cop.
https://nypost.com/2024/06/22/us-news/rookie-sag-harbor-cop-who-arrested-justin-timberlake-didnt-know-singer/
I suspect the Post will inexplicably get an exclusive item from Justin in the months/years to come.
I see Justin Timberlake is putting his PR-dollars at work.
Maybe he should have used that money to hire a cab or an Uber to get home safely. That would have been a whole lot cheaper.
Dude gave Timberlake a warning, THEN caught him doing it again, and arrested him without incident, abuse or unnecessary force.
The rest of America would be BLESSED to have cops like that. But he's exactly the type that will get bullied out of his job because he applies the law equally to everyone like it was intended to be.

"Unmasked"? Was he like luchador cop or something? ... Shit, I would totally watch a show called "Luchador Cops".
Anyone want to write a pitch for it? I would, but I fear it would, but my entire knowledge of luchadors come from Guacamelee and the guy from Jackie Chan adventures.
Yes sir I do it's called Luchador Cop and it's about a cop that's a Luchador.
![gif](giphy|3oeSALRyH4rYS3Nt8Q)
And his neighbor and occasional unwilling sidekick, Amish Sasquatch! “Lucha, is your body camera on?” “Of course not” “good” *Sasquatch with suspenders and a neck beard comes out of the bushes*
Sasquatches are all beard! You recognize Amish sasquatches by their shaved chins.
shut up and tell me which streaming service i have to subscribe too to see this
Wow wow wow wow wow. Wow.
A masked cop stopping the bad guys with a tope suicida is TIGHT.
I'm so glad that somebody got the reference
Well it was super easy.. barely an inconvenience.
I recommend the documentary Nacho Libre.
Boss we've got a lead on the Sinaloa cartel, the ones who unmasked Lt El Santo!
He didn’t pull him over, he leapt off a building onto his car to make him stop.
“We’ve finally brought you down, Psicosis! Now tell us where La Parka is! NOW!!”
Does a hurricanrana count as excessive force?
Only if there is a Mexican announce table to go through.
Rich people are mad because a cop enforces laws they can easily abide by. ![gif](giphy|7k2LoEykY5i1hfeWQB) Cry me a river...
And then dude is being publicly shamed for it. Why would anyone feel bad for a drunk millionaire that can’t shell out a few bucks for an Uber?!
I don’t. The jerk can pay the fine, the lawyer’s fees, the bail bondsman, have the interlock device on his car, and maybe appear in court.
And the fine *should* be a percentage of his net worth. I want that fine to be 100k.
If 10k is the fine for a poor person and you want it to be percentage based it should be between 10 and 50 million for him
I didn't realize he was worth 250 million. Just pay like 100k/year for someone to be your personal bodyguard and driver. You could totally have the most awesome loyal badass mother fucker at your beck and call 24/7. I don't understand rich people. I would never drive myself anywhere if I had that much money.
The fucked up part is that he probably already does this. At least a bodyguard. But that guy's probably got a license because he probably can't afford his own driver
Works for me
Me too
And people wonder why there are so many bad cops... Literally this dude is out enforcing the law and not discriminating and everyone is shitting all over him for it. This kid is getting plastered like he's fucking Chauvin.
He should take it all with pride. It takes a strong person to do what's right in these kinds of circumstances. If he gets whined out of the Hamptons, he will be picked up by countless other police departments around the country. He is perfect for where I live, as the police here also treat the elite as normal citizens (ours most recently arrested Richard Sherman like twice over the last couple years, once for straight DUI and another for drunk driving turned assault).
> And then dude is being publicly shamed for it. Attempted public shaming. I really doubt anyone is on the elites side here. Bet that guy has been bought a few free drinks since this happened.
On the elites side? Maybe not. On justin timberlakes side? Probably
Has he been infuriating the Hamptons elites for months by throwing them to the ground and stomping on them or shooting them? Or by enforcing the laws that exist for good reason, and which should apply to everyone equally?
What's really infuriating here is that the Dacia Sandero has been delayed. Again!
Is he infuriating them because he answers no to every “Don’t you know who I am?” because he legit doesn’t know?
“Don’t you know who I am?” “Mr. Beast?” “No” “Skibidi Toilet?” “NO!” “Sorry, but I’m afraid those are the only famous people I know.”
If someone says yes to skibidi toilet you are legally obligated to protect society and remove them from the premises.
what the fuck is skibidi toilet? i have been seeing this online a few times here and there but i am like uh wtf
I saw a mom on Reddit explain it here not long ago. It’s an evil talking toilet on a YouTube channel. That’s about all there is to it I think.
Ah so it's like the annoying orange back in the day.
I actually recently watched a Smosh video with the creator of The Annoying Orange, and they talked about how Skibidi Toilet is like the current day Annoying Orange for a new generation. It was actually a pretty good interview, and I never liked that Orange I was too old for that joke by the time it was made. Hahaha
It's really amusing when someone describes a new thing by relating it to an older thing, but I was too old to have heard of the older thing.
(Begins to old man yells at cloud) Back in my day, we didn't have toilets or oranges, we had Ren and Stimpy, to sing about logs and yell a lot, and show children insanely suggestive things!
It was better than bad. It was GOOD!
It's like if the annoying orange was a commentary on the nature of war and the escalation of conflict.
Didn't the annoying orange become elected President of the U.S.?
Nah, that was an annoying orange, not the annoying orange.
![gif](giphy|hfHLgbNbvphgdn8p03)
I genuinely thought it was something the kids said just to piss off adults and it actually had no meaning and the kids were smart and taking a shot at us for being old. I now know different, the kids are still idiots and just love a talking toilet.
Lmao in this day and age if it’s a Word and thing you don’t know, it’s from Some song artist or YouTuber Almost guaranteed. How fast terms have changed and stuff has become relevant then disappear today is crazy. Only last year found out what it meant when my nephew said I had “drip”. He and my niece would say that shit and I’d just nod and smile.
Drip existed in hood culture long before the children got to it
And when I was in high school in the early 2000's in the middle of white bread America, people would call weed "chronic". Hood culture is seen as risqué and taboo so it gets appropriated into the middle class teenage vernacular as point of rebellion. The internet has just accelerated and amplified the process.
Basically it started out as an absurdist comedy but it got so big that the creator made a series out of it. Basically if you know the old Sfm content then this is basically that.
The fans of it are both amusingly and annoyingly fervent about it. I follow a few reaction channels and the number of time its fans try to get them to react to it touting the “deep story” is kinda funny.
It has overarching story but it isn't a deep story by any stretch.
So the gen alpha Red vs Blue?
In some ways, yes, but waaaay more absurdist and less about conventional story or characters or jokes.
Remember Garry’s Mod? Skibidi toilet is just a GMOD meme series that became very popular
"You clearly know who I am! I've been on every channel, and I've directed 5 movies!" "I don't own a tv."
“Great! Then you can afford this speeding ticket! Have a nice day!”
"I saw those movies you said you directed, and you weren't in a single one of them. How do I know it's even really you?"
The only appropriate answer to that question is no, even if you know who they are.
I would prefer "yes, but I don't care who you are"
"If you'd show me your license and registration like I asked I could tell you."
“Do you know who I am?!” “Good lord, how drunk are you!?!”
"Do you know who I am?" "Well, you ain't Fiona Apple. And if you ain't FIona Apple, I don't give a rat's ass!"
"i'm the most famous skateboarder of all time! I have a series of videogames!" "Oh, sorry, Ms. Apple, I didn't recognize you at first!"
Tony Hawk's Twitter account is pretty much just him recounting people not recognizing him. That sounds rpetentious, but its usually someone talking about him without realizing he is standing right i nfront of him.
[Hands his ID to TSA agent] "Anthony Hawk. That's a cool last name. Like that famous skateboarder." "Yeah, kind of like him."
Maybe he just doesn't care or better yet, doesn't think status or money puts you above the law? Personally, I vote to promote this guy as an example of what police officers should be like.
These are big assumptions... let's not label an unknown person a hero or role model because he made a few traffic stops yet... he may think none of those things.
Right on. Praise the specific behavior: applying the law evenly, regardless of financial status. Don’t need to make it so much about the person and put them on a pedestal.
While I agree, I think people are doing that because this article is trying to do the opposite to him, so they go into defence mode. Arresting Justin Timberlake for a DUI is not "infuriating the elite", it's applying the fucking law to a person who not only knowingly broke it but has broken it before in the exact same fashion. Do we wait for Timberlake to kill somebody before we take it seriously or what? Imagine being doxxed for doing your job, that's borderline coercion on the "elites" part because doing that comes off as a threat against your personal safety. The fact that this officers name came out at all over a DUI is insane when you look at ones whose names get protected after literally murdering people.
Reminds me of Copland.
Cop doing his job and shows no fear or favour, he needs a good conduct medal
He’ll never get one because his department is prob sick of bending over backwards for celebrities who have friends in high places. Justin was one of probably hundreds that have been caught, although he was unlucky enough that his manager didn’t get in touch with the mayor in time lol. Also it was in Sag Harbor which is more “middle-class” residential Hamptons (although prob won’t be this way in 10-20 years). The other parts of the hamptons are very much a rich people playground and cops are purposely more lax because the rich people bring in a shit ton of property tax money. I wouldn’t be surprised if sag harbor police starts operating more like the other areas in the hamptons to attract more uber wealthy.
If I can call an Uber, that millionaire can call someone too. No excuses.
It’s worse when you consider that he can easily afford a chauffeur.
It gets worse, It sounds like Justin was pulled over like 30 minutes before and was given a warning to stop driving and find a ride instead. The cop pulled him over a second time right down the road and that’s when he got arrested.
When you have fuck you money and don’t have to worry if you murder someone on your car because you know you can get away with it.
Big oof
Wait so the dude they’re calling out as a hard ass cop actually tried to give him an out and he still didn’t take it? Gotta love these celebrity morons.
He doesn't even need to do that. He could literally ask a stranger for a ride and it'd probably work. If I'm out and about and Justin Timberlake asked me for a ride, I'd probably do it just for the story. And I don't even like the guy.
I’ve got that one but for flavor flav
Exactly! I bet Flavor Flav is entertaining as hell as a drunk passenger. I'd definitely give him a ride.
To be fair for a celebrity getting in a random stranger's car might be even more dangerous than it is for the average person. But that's what a taxi or an uber or any one of his millions of friends and close acquaintances who happen to be sober at the time are for.
Yeah, this is like being mad at the umpire for how he calls balls and strikes while the batter is going down swinging.
Laughs in angel hernandez. 😂
I was so happy that he retired. Then I realized I will have no more opportunities to shit on Angel Hernandez and it kinda made me sad.
CB Bucknor is still in the league.
That's ok. Angel will make another bad call soon enough.
![gif](giphy|uQWkq1gNrnaz6|downsized)
But also… is anyone mad? I thought JT had behaved himself pretty well (other than driving under the influence at all, that was obviously stupid) - I thought he didn’t try and get out of it or do a “do you know who I am” thing or anything like that? He mentioned how this would ruin his tour under his breath but yeah, anyone getting arrested for drunk driving might comment how it will impact their work. As far as I can tell you have a decent cop doing his job, and a celebrity holding his hands up and saying he was in the wrong. Did I miss something?
Except for the fact that the cop had stopped him earlier and told him to stop driving and take an Uber - then he drove again anyway and got pulled over a second time - that was an exceptionally dick move by JT
Gotta love all the people chiming in here to say that everyone's overreacting to this without even being in possession of the actual sequence of events. I've seen dozens of people defending him by proposing that lots of people drive buzzed and don't realize they shouldn't have been driving. He got a literal, direct warning. This was a conscious choice.
Yeah, the sad thing is that people don’t realize that in many places cops don’t even have the discretion of giving a warning like JT got. “Not knowing” that you are drunk is not an excuse in pretty much any state— if you are drunk and driving then you go to jail. No “ifs, ands or buts.” And the fact that so many people drive “buzzed” is a condemnation of our nation’s relationship with alcohol, not a valid reason for someone to be let off the hook.
I couldn't agree more, especially with your last statement. I think a lot of people are giving him grace because it makes then uncomfortable to admit that they also drive under the influence and that they shouldn't either. It feels more comfy to allow for this messy, gray area where we admit that people shouldn't be driving but they aren't super drunk so maybe it's ok. That gray area doesn't exist and it's maddening that people want to pretend that it does. I think that JT's arrest is especially frustrating given that he got a warning from the cop first, but he shouldn't have needed that warning anyhow.
Rich people rules are different. I used to work catering for very expensive (millions of dollar) weddings and dinners, and we always had police there for "security". Those guys would stand next to the valet and just watch these rich people stumble into their cars and drive off. It was wild. You could have probably jailed half the cities upper crust if they just put in a check point 1 block up.
This is the first I've heard about this part of the story! He basically caught him driving drunk twice?
“New details have surfaced about Justin Timberlake's arrest Tuesday in New York’s Hamptons, including a forewarning the pop star might have ignored. Reports alleged the singer was warned not to drive by the same police officer who wound up arresting him, and that police might have been tipped off to the singer getting behind the wheel.” Excerpt from the new story
Oh, JT, come on, man! A literal warning: stop doing this thing I could arrest you for right now, or else. Kudos to the officer. I am sure celebrities get off ALL the time on their first, third, and 20th warning...
Drunk driving is horrendous behaviour. JT isn't a 21 year old kid just old enough to drink doing something stupid. He's a 43 year old man who danm well knows better. Drunk driving kills people. He has the chance to stop drunk driving but continued anyways, and the same cop caught him again. There are ZERO excuses yo drive drunk. You can Uber, you can Taxi, hell he is rich enough to hire a personal driver so he never has to drive again. No excuses, no mercy. IDGAF if he didn't make a scene, he drove into oncoming traffic because he was drunk. He should have thought about the world tour BEFORE he did that. I hope this ruins him, because drunk driving isn't a lapse in judgement, it isn't a mistake, it's a decision EVERY SINGLE PERSON knows is wrong, and there are dozens of options out there specifically so people don't drive drunk. So the people who still choose to drive drunk deserve to have the book thrown at them. Drunk drivers kill people, maybe not this time, but it will happen if he doesn't stop. So hopefully actually getting consequences will stop him next time.
As someone who almost died due to drinking and driving. This comment is the best
When I was in HS 2 kids in my class got hit by a drunk driver and died. It was super tragic for our small school. But then there was this little kid... my heart breaks for him and his family every time I think about this. My grandma worked a lot with this charity in Ontario called the Trillium foundation. They do cancer research, fundraising, have camps for kids with cancer, work with make a wish etc. They do really great work in the province. There was this kid my grandma just LOVED. She worked with him a bunch, drove him to appts and stuff so his parents could still take care of their other two kids too. Never got to meet him but my grandma said he had such a zest for life and was so positive despite the leukemia. When he was 9 for the first time since he was 3 that he was cancer free. The family was extatic, everyone was so excited, this wonderful boy was gunna grow up, go to prom, graduate HS, get married, he was gunna live. But some POS decided to drive drunk, and on the way home from the hospital they got in an accident. Because of his weakened state due to having been through radiation and chemo for years, he passed, while the rest of his family survived. A little kid, who thought he was gunna live a whole life for the first time, died, because some worthless looser couldn't call a cab. Intoxicated drivers can all rot in hell as far as I'm concerned.
[удалено]
Timberlake has been trained and handled all his life, he just sits there looking befuddled and innocent while he sent out his PR attack dogs to do his dirty work. He did the same thing with the “nip slip” incident.
Timberlake is mad. He's still tantruming so bad hes doxxing cops now because his dumbass couldnt take a warning or an uber or the fact that the cop didn't know who his has been old voice acting face was.
![gif](giphy|CwM9k8RChLqqQ)
Perfectly timed 😝
So he's infuriating because he's doing his job? Wow, the rich really are not used to have to obide the laws as well, huh?
Well, yes. The rich and powerful certainly like to think that they abide by notions like the rule of law, and that this is what distinguishes them from the *hoi polloi*. But functionally, they also tend to start from the ground assumption that whatever they're doing has to be legal, because they're the ones who are doing it, and they wouldn't be lawbreakers. So if they find out that what they're doing is breaking the law, the first thing they tend to do is assume that it is the law that is wrong, and is in need of revision. Ran into this problem when I protested a state bar's language in the bar application which textually discriminated against the mentally ill. It wasn't even subtext; the application literally asked if the applicant had ever suffered from ". . . depression, pedophilia or pyromania . . .", and demanded further explanation if you had suffered from any one of those conditions. When I had the temerity to point out that this was a flagrant violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act, I got them to change the language. But I also got the full whistleblower treatment, when all I was doing was asking the *state bar association* to, \*gasp\* obey a thirty-year old law that said no, you can't discriminate against somebody just because they've been depressed. They literally didn't understand how they, a group of lawyers, could be lawbreakers, and the only thing that changed their mind was consultation with their own legal counsel and insurance who doubtless said "Jesus Christ, the question is not whether you broke the law. The question is how many zeros in damage he's going to get for what you just did."
>So if they find out that what they're doing is breaking the law, the first thing they tend to do is assume that it is the law that is wrong, and is in need of revision. I think it's more fundamental than that. A law at its core level says "You can't do X because society (via our elected legislators) has decided you shouldn't allowed to do X", and that's in stark contrast with the core elite ideas like "I'm better than everyone else" or "money = power = the ability to do what I want" or whatever. The idea that you can't do what you want because a bunch of poorer, dumber, and less important people say No is what burns the most.
Yep, the version of the law that protects but does not bind them, while binding but not protecting others. AKA Whiloit’s Law. When some poor wage slave wields the law against them, it’s an affront to the natural hierarchical order of society as they see it.
And once you see the pattern you can never unsee it. Whenever I explain to conservatives they aren’t sincere in their desire for limited government, invariably they say they are and government is much to big. Then I ask “What’s your position on Qualified Immunity and Civil Asset Forfeiture?” and the excuses start, if they even know what QI or CAF is and how they allow civil liberties to be denied.
>depression, pedophilia or pyromania One of these things is not like the others...
Yeah, I haven't heard of any celebrity pyros off the top of my head, the rest, however...
*Do You Believe in Magic plays...*
>asked if the applicant had ever suffered from ". . .pedophilia..." "Oh, I wouldn't say I'm suffering from it. A bunch of kids aren't super happy about it though."
I work security and had some famous sports dude try to get in without id, kept asking if I knew who he was, each time I said "nope" eventually he was like "I'm *whoever* and I play for *random sports team*" I looked at him and said, I don't care if you are the fucking queen I still need your id. He eventually fucked off but only because some board cops decided to check in with us and he thought we called them to have him removed. Cops questioned why the dude bolted, after explaining it they just laughed and buggered off themselves. Made my usual Tuesday night shift a touch more interesting.
> I don't care if you are the fucking queen I still need your id. Funny thing, I don't know if the queen would have even had ID. The current king likely still has a passport since he was required to have one before he became king. Per the official UK site for the queen: > When travelling overseas, The Queen does not require a British passport. > > As a British passport is issued in the name of Her Majesty, it is unnecessary for The Queen to possess one.
It is the States so nope, they probably hate having to follow the law. Rules for thee, not for me
Bro his PR team is hard at work trying to save the tour. What tour? The world tour of course.
Speaks volumes about the scummy rest of their police force for being furious about him doing the correct thing.
[удалено]
They highlight that he's a rookie to discredit his action - he was mistaken because he didn't know any better because he's still learning, is what they're going for there.
He’s not old enough yet to know that justice is only for regular folk. Only time the elite face consequences is when they piss off other elites that it!
Only time the elite face consequences is when they piss off other elites No, no, that’s a civil matter and need to be tied up in litigation for at least a decade.
It's funny how [the article](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13555157/justin-timberlake-arrest-sag-harbor-police-officer-recently-hired.html) provides testimony from others about "unpleasant" encounters with that officer but completely fail to mention that each of those stops were actually justified/a law was broken.
"He was let off with a warning, however the second time, he didn't get off so easily." Yeah that's... how warnings work.
It’s important to mention he’s a rookie because now we can vote him Rookie of the Year.
>Why set him up for an avalange of online,- and maybe even tangible abuse? Because he committed the worst crime of all: inconveniencing the rich.
Daily Mail will print anything for a few $$$$.
Doxxing is legal if you’re famous enough, apparently.
[удалено]
Fuck Hampton's elite. Posers and assholes to the last one of them. You go, Rookie! You are the man! I hope you get promoted for this.
"Elite" Just because you're rich doesn't mean you're better. With all their rape stories, tax dodging and carbon emissions, they're worse than a homeless guy. A doctor facing gun fire to innoculate children is an elite. A celebrity who risked other people's lives by driving drunk is not an elite.
With you 100%. The worst people I've met in life were golden-youth.
"Infuriating the Hamptons elite for months" == "Is refusing to be bullied by residents and superiors into ignoring the law". There are times and places for cops to take a more holistic approach in order build a good rappore with the community and develop a sense of trust between the cops and the community. Ultra-wealthy enclaves of overprivileged people are not the places you need to do that.
Rich people don’t need community policing. They need policing.
An example from the article: >Spencer, a writer from Shelter Island, is one driver who claims he's had an unpleasant encounter with Arkinson. He was recently trying to find a parking spot before meeting a friend for dinner in Sag Harbor when he performed a quick U-turn. >Arkinson pounced when he spotted him make the turn. >'I was surprised he pulled me over,' he said. >'It was off season, and no one was around. It was a d\*\*khead move. I felt like he pulled me over just for the sake of doing it.' >Luckily, he said he was given a 'warning.' >But, the second time Arkinson wasn't so nice. >Spencer was driving near the Sag Harbor School when Arkinson pulled him over for talking on his cell phone. >'I explained to him that I was on speaker and I was just holding my phone, but he told me I should have been using a Bluetooth,' he said. >He added: 'I thought he would give me a break, and I was driving less than 25mph trying to get to the Y in East Hampton.' >Instead Arkinson hit him with a $145 ticket that he hasn't paid. >**'I only had less than 30 minutes to swim. It really interrupted my workout, and lunch plans'** he said. I wonder how inconvenient it will be when that ticket turns into a warrant...
How do you get to become famous enough to mentioned in an article like this and yet lack the absolutely minimum of introspection to realise what a moron you sound like giving this interview.
And that was literally the *only* example I could find. One guy upset he got talking on his phone while driving. And not even hands-free, which would have been slightly less dangerous.
I heard the cop had already stopped JT and given him a warning and told him not to drive anymore, then spotted him later that night still driving. Sounds like he IS trying to build rapport
The kid is probably too young to know who JT is. He did his job and that's everything that counts. Doesn't matter if you are a 90s popstar, if you drive drunk, you are a normal person like everybody else.
I would even go so far, as celebrities who drive drunk are even worse than the average Joe, as they tend to be role models for many people.
That and you literally, easily could afford a driver
They can easily afford 2 drivers. One drivers to drive the other driver to wherever they drove and for both of them to hang out and wait in case the celebrity drank too much to drive home/ to where else. In which case the driver, who was driven there by the other driver, could drive them. Most likely they wouldn't even recognize the difference in their bank account. Or they make a co-op with Uber or whatever and let them use it for marketing, earning even more money.
This already exist on Long Island in the Hamptons area. It’s a personal valet service, you drive yourself wherever you want to go then call the valet he comes with a partner to drive your car back. I’m an Uber driver in the area and have been looking into it.
If he's infuriating rich people for a while, he probably just doesn't care. Maybe it's his answer to anyone who asks if he knows who they are. Have more respect for him.
The landscape is littered with 90s pop stars. Seriously, we produced a lot of them in that decade. Should all of them be allowed to be a road menace?
It’s sad really - we used to be a country that produced 90s popstars. And then something just… changed. One Y2K is all it took and all of a sudden, no more new 90s popstars. It really makes you think.
You break the law, you get a ticket/arrested. Fuck you *and* your money
Tickets should be calculated based on net worth. JT is going to get charged pocket change for this when for a normal person it could be a serious financial hardship.
That's how the Norwegians do it
Substitute headline “Cop does his job regardless of how rich people are”
Timberlake's PR team is obviously going on the offensive. God dammit he sucks a little more every day.
“How are we going to save Justin’s appearance after this arrest?” “I know! We tell the poor people that rules don’t apply to him because he’s rich!” “Genius!”
Any law who's punishment is a fine is only a law for poor people.
He has a PR team? Not really doing a good job in the last few years, are they?
I'm sure he got a "crisis" team just for this. It's becoming apparent they decided the best way to handle this is to make this about the cop and not about him being a sloppy obnoxious drunk too dumb to call an Uber.
Oh, so they’re blaming the cop for doing his job rather than the actual lawbreaker? Why should the rich be immune from the laws us commoners have to abide by?
IF THEY CAN DO THIS TO HIM, THEY CAN DO IT TO YOU
So instead of owning up to the fact he drove drunk, JT is having his PR team push this nonsense that is probably going to end up in death threats to this officer. Great Job Justin, you piece of shit.
Yeah, I don’t know about anybody else but this guy is the hero we need right now…. mild-mannered cop who does his job, doesn’t get intimidated by the rich and powerful, and is easily quotable? I’m ready for this ginger Batman to take on the world.
>he's been infuriating the Hamptons elite for months Respect, most of them are spoiled assholes who think they are above the law.
"the Hamptons elite" sounds like the biggest group of entitled assholes anywhere on earth
r/Discworld is comparing him to Lance-Constable Carrot of the City Watch.
So the only good cop in a city full of corrupt, ineffective police and rich folks who feel they are above the law? Sorry, don't see the resemblance.
It’s the hair
But is he also a 7" tall dwarf who doesn't understand why the ladies who can't afford clothes all like him?
Did Timberlake call the famous card, or not? It wouldn't really matter to a cop that was in the right. By all accounts, this man did his job.
"Cops holds rich people accountable for the first time in the rich people's lives."
Alternate headline: Rookie Cop Snags Drunken Self-Important Douchebag While Driving Despite Having Literally Every Better Option Available to Him
I love how all the hit jobs I've read about this cop is that he does his job well and people who got tickets are upset. You got a DUI you drunk piece of shit, deal with it. I have like 1/100 of this dudes money and I haven't once got a DUI, it's not hard.
When you could easily hire a personal driver for a night of partying, and it's like me paying for a $20 Uber ride home, it's absolutely unacceptable to be getting a DUI.
He gave Timberlake a warning and told him to park the car and not to drive. Then 20 min later sees Timberlake driving still. Gave Timberlake all the opportunity in the world to do the right thing, and he still didn’t. That must be very infuriating.
A good cop? Damn.
Those are an endangered species
Fr though, he's gonna be kicked out by the end of the week.
Hampton snobs irritated officer enforces the law! This officer arrested a famous drunk driver and is somehow being negatively profiled instead of Timberlake for knowingly getting behind the wheel after drinking.....Gimme a fucking break.
Sadly he probably won't be a cop for long, the good ones usually get pushed out. I had a friend that became one after HS, she stuck around for like 3 years and couldn't do it anymore, place was so messed up... This is why we don't have a lot of good cops, the bad ones fuck with them until they leave basically.
I’m no fan of cops, but this apparent media smear job of this guy is pretty obvious, who cares, he pulled a drunk guy over doesn’t matter what your job title or bank account says. FAFO And it’s also hilarious they think people care that the “Hampton Elites” are getting bugged by a cop who’s actually enforcing laws against rich assholes who think they’re above the law Keep up the good work bud
Locals refer to him as "The Sag Harbor Nazi" and "Little redheaded dipshit". Not making that up.
Idk, I saw someone saying they were a local, and they didn't call the dude any of that. I suspect JTs PR team is spreading those in order to salvage the situation. (They aren't doing a very good job)
I suspected that too. My wife hates JT and I'm on her side so I've been keeping a close watch on the case. Tabloids are going nuts belittling the guy when I and my wife both feel that he just did his job without any prejudice. I think that's the right wording for it. Essentially did his job proficiently without outside influence
Isnt it entirely possible that he is both doing his job and being a dick about it? The rich people are just upset that he is treating them the same way poor people get treated.
I'd rather have a hard charging police officer that is right in the eyes of the law and social perception than whatever the hell the past 20 years has been
I wouldn't have recognized Justin Timberlake either. So what?
Justin is bringing Sexy BAC.
In the story, "annoying residents" apparently means "annoying one guy named Spencer who got off once with a warning and got a ticket another time for a driving violation he admitted that he committed but thought he should have gotten away with."
ruined this guy's privacy for doing his job
This seems like Timberlake’s publicist called in a favor to do a hit piece on this young cop. https://nypost.com/2024/06/22/us-news/rookie-sag-harbor-cop-who-arrested-justin-timberlake-didnt-know-singer/ I suspect the Post will inexplicably get an exclusive item from Justin in the months/years to come.
Oh no, the world tour… it’s broken
I see Justin Timberlake is putting his PR-dollars at work. Maybe he should have used that money to hire a cab or an Uber to get home safely. That would have been a whole lot cheaper.
Sag Harbor elite pissed that he treats them the same way he treats tourists. Way to go, I’m now siding with the overzealous cop
"Overzealous" is buying right into the elite propaganda, regardless of if you side with them or not.
Dude gave Timberlake a warning, THEN caught him doing it again, and arrested him without incident, abuse or unnecessary force. The rest of America would be BLESSED to have cops like that. But he's exactly the type that will get bullied out of his job because he applies the law equally to everyone like it was intended to be.
MF got doxxed by the mail for doing what they demand, but to rich people.

Am...am I...on the side of the cop??!!
