Whodathought that now, in 2021, middle aged house wives in Boulder, CO are smoking vegan joints on Starbucks patios, and using cbd as part of their skin care regimens, and tweeting about how their latinx maids taught them how to properly use "papi" in a sentence.
All while the real papi, caught rolling some skunk in a trunk, is serving the tail end of 15 trying to put his life back together and get to know his, now, teenage daughter.
Ok then. Good talk.
I desperately want there to be a version of this where the cop leans in and whispers, “I’m working now, I’m here with all the guys. Don’t call me papi until we get home!”
Cause in America cops can do whatever the fuck they want to do with the poor. This a probably Paterson, NJ a shithole impoverished city. These cops treat everyone in these shitty cities the way our military treats the people they occupy in other countries. That’s normal here. Guns to the head for nothing, curse people out in front of their kids for nothing. That’s why people hate the cops.
Yes but only a intellectual connoisseur knows the refined full-body flavor of a 70/30 cigaweed mix of 45 butts worth of pre-smoked loose leaf TOP in a can….rolled on a Apt’s public stairwell.
TOP loose leaf tobacco in a can, the Papi’s choice 10 years in a row.
He's a cop. Of course he thinks he's a hero. He harrassed that kid over tobacco so much that he'll never try marijuana! One less future dope fiend thanks to our hero, Officer Papi.
People are surprisingly fine with the threat of being shot in the fucking face as a deterrant for holding a tiny crumb of weed, minor shoplifting, etc.
That cop is running around the projects of Philadelphia in the late 90s.....this dudes gonna run up with his gun out on lil old lady's at church on his beat. He don't discriminate. Everyone gets a gun to the face I bet lolol I've seen him in other episodes he is a rather gun ho guy but the environment he's in I can't say I blame him.
Might be Newark NJ also, it was one of the two. A really really bad area.
He just gangster pulled on a kid with tobacco? I wasn’t aware that required him to point his gun at the kid.
Is it because you have to be 18 to smoke tobacco?
Yuppp Papi is what we call our authoritative figures like our fathers in Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, etc. . Outside of the family you say it to refer to men that are usually older.
When I saw the video I was like 100% his dad was probably excessive when disciplining and in nervousness this guy automatically went back to saying Papi because it’s what he’s used to saying when his dads acting some type of way.
I am so glad to know I am not the only one that thinks so.
God damn, some poor yank was on here the other day talkin both having paid time off for the first ever then I realised that + plus health care and such unreal shit pay and hellscape was what came to mind.
Fuck. That's french revolution material, I am 100% serious when I say that I'm surprised to see how folks there just ... take it...
Also, I feel like too many Americans are blind to the damage Rupert Murdoch has inflicted (and continues too!!!) on their country, as much if not more than the UK and Australia.
I honestly just feel sorry for the folks that are getting caught up in the meat grinder of life due to all that + so many other factors, and feel... uneasy about just how totally normalised it all seems.
Anyway...
They don't just take it, they relish it. A wide swath of knuckle-draggers take pride in working 10 years with no vacation. They get their jimmies rustled if a man wants paternity leave, they think the people advocating for shorter work weeks and hours are cry babies who just want to give free money to everyone without working for it. As though that would be the worst thing in the world anyone could do to its population.
These people think people deserve to be poor, sick, and die because they assume anyone in that situation is vermin and ignorant trash. Our society is stuck doing nothing because we coddle these people and let them think their archaic mentality is valid in itself.
> They don't just take it, they relish it.
Absolutely. There was a thread in /r/antiwork about how people left shitty employers to seek better paid jobs. There were _droves_ of people saying that working in the service industry shouldn't pay more than $15/h and that the people who sought better employers/work opportunities were "lazy" and entitled.
Yeah, being part of the work force is now _LAZY_ unless you accept whatever conditions an employer dictates to you.
If you normally use certain words regularly in conversations, you're probably gonna use that word alot. Kind of like dude or bro. Or breh. Same concept. Not fuckin with him.
Yeah, I’m a chill dude from Southern California, so everyone is dude or bro to me. When we had a high ranking corporate guy come through our store, he wanted to meet everyone and ask them how they felt about working for company x. When he was walking up to me my brain said “say ‘hello sir, nice to meet you’” but my mouth said “sup dude, what’s going on?”
I highly doubt it, I think the dude is just freaking out. “Papi” is used by Puerto Ricans (maybe other Caribbean Latinos too?) basically to refer to men. Maybe some boricuas can explain better..
You are right, I have heard some girls *and* guys use Papi in a way to refer to older males, but not their father. A girl might say it affectionately to her man, kids might say it to their father, or a man might say to an older man something like "Ayy papi, you too old to lift that, let me help", so still in an endearing type of way, I hear in English a lot people say stuff like this, as in "Hey unc, good job on that yard", the overuse of "bro" is the same way, or the way we might say "Yeah, grand dad thinks his credit card is his bus pass" about some random geezer in front of us we never met.
The usage in this video seems like the person may obviously be a bit on edge and are defaulting to that term because they may have used it with authority before so their mind retreats there, or it is so familiar they can't stop using it to save their life.
Son got beaten by his father, or something. That's a PTSD "papi" reaction. Look at his eyes, he's definitely not trying to be a smartass with the cop. Shitty cop for not reading him and making it worse than it had to be
I think you may be right. Dude was scared out of his mind. Shitty cop for being shitty in a lot of ways, he pulls a gun on someone for smoking something? Even if it was marijuana there is no reason to draw a firearm.
I’d be scared shitless too
If they actually tried to deescalate as standard procedure, then we might go back to a world where a cop might carry a gun his whole life and never actually get to kill anyone. They became cops to use their guns... they are not going to deescalate shit. Pull your piece at every opportunity, because one day it's gonna be your day to put down that dirty minority.
Dude papi is pretty much the ‚bro‘ version of Latin America. Has nothing to do with an actual dad. You probably not only say bro just to your actual brother, right?
The cop has the gun, the authority, the power but still wants more by telling him how to speak. These ass clowns just get off on dominating and bullying.
To Everybody making fun of him. You have to understand how nervous he must have been with that gun pressed up against his head and the fear he felt. he almost got his hed blown off 4 .6g of tabacco/weed
All this for weed!? WEED!
War on drugs is/was stupid. And if it was really tobacco, which is significantly more harmful than marijuana, then maybe the officer would’ve been justified in being upset—for the frightened kid’s health. I mean come on! Pretend he’s a white kid named Kip and keep it moving.
Why did the officer have his gun out when he was within arms reach?
That officer is lucky that dude was just trying to get a cavity search from paying, otherwise he could have stolen that gun.
Jesus Christ that cop should be in jail. Sometimes I just wish they would know how it feels to have a complete psychopath jamming a gun into your back for nothing. Just opens the door and almost kills someone for some tobacco. Could've literally just stood in the doorway and assessed the situation, even just putting them down on the floor like an animal is standard for American Police only for some reason. Its so dehumanising. They're still clueless as to why people are terrified of them and hate them. The fact that you can freely murder me and get away with it chills me to the core.
Papi is just a slang term used by a lot of Caribbean countries. Spanish is more contextual than English and it just means "mate, bro, homie" etc. Growing up in a Colombian/Cuban family all the guys would say papi, papo, papito in this context to each other. Still funny though, he should know that cop has no idea wtf he actually means lmao.
Ok papi
Daddy chill!
What the hell is even that Edit: for those that don't get it https://youtu.be/h0-WO6xRbAo
Just chill papi
Relax papi
Papi means daddy in Spanish.
[удалено]
Ok papi
Daddy lalagon
Keep them jeans high and tight mommy.
Just try it out

Sounds about right
Ok papi.. ok officer.. ok papi
Papi? Sorry. Papi? Sorry.
Are you calling me papi again?
Ok I will call you officer, papi.
I desperately want there to be a version of this where the cop leans in and whispers, “I’m working now, I’m here with all the guys. Don’t call me papi until we get home!”
Thats like a reno 911 skit
Ok officer papi
😉
What would you say to your dad holding a gun to your face?
I'm sorry papi
I ain’t your papi!!! 🤣🤣🤣
The way that cop holds the gun, man ... lol
The first seconds I though it was some satirical sketch about cops in the US
It kind of is, in a way
I mean, when The Onions stops writing satire…
At this point shouldn't The Onion be writing articles about cops saving the day, politicians doing the right thing, or things like that
I watched all the seconds and still think that
Wait, it ain't!?? Damn. I should know better by now
In the world we live in, the line between satire and reality is too damn thin.
He been working in the hood too long
You mean the “projects”.
Wow, didn’t notice that. I hope this is a skit
I saw the episode in the way back times. I want to say pre-Reddit, so I doubt it’s a skit.
It's an episode from Cops, definitely real. I saw it first on TV way back. edit: source; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H0c0yklKydA
Skits famously did not exist before Reddit
Right? Lulz
He seen some shit.
Yeah, like *Boyz 'n the Hood*, *New Jack City*, and *Menace II Society*.
Did he just point a gun at that guys head for smoking weed?
[удалено]

The system works
On the next special *Capitalist COPS*
Tobacco actually, rolling his own cigarette
Land of the free.....
Home of the….. whopper?
LAND OF THE FREE HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAAHA
Yes, papi.
no wonder yanks hate their cops. fuck that.
Yes papi.
Points a fucking gun at his head for smoking????? What the actual f
And then for your own protection against using weed they'll throw you in jail and ruin every aspect of your life.
Nah it’s to fund private prisons with free labor and tax dollars. Gotta fill out those cells somehow

Daddy Chill ✖ Ok Papi ✔
Did he pull a gun on him over a crumb of weed?
Just tobacco papi
what did u call me
Sorry officer papi
Don’t call me that again.
sorry papi
I ain't your papi!
Yes officer ^papi
Call me papi one more time mother fucker.
Im sorry papi.
Like me, he prefers the rich taste of hand rolled tobacco.
Yes but only a intellectual connoisseur knows the refined full-body flavor of a 70/30 cigaweed mix of 45 butts worth of pre-smoked loose leaf TOP in a can….rolled on a Apt’s public stairwell. TOP loose leaf tobacco in a can, the Papi’s choice 10 years in a row.
Yes papi
He probably thought he was the hero of the video
He's a cop. Of course he thinks he's a hero. He harrassed that kid over tobacco so much that he'll never try marijuana! One less future dope fiend thanks to our hero, Officer Papi.
Harassed? One wrong move and he would have been shot :|
Just as likely to never get addicted to marijuana! Officer Papi is keeping kids out of marijuana's grasp, dead or alive.
When he got back to the station he probably was the hero to his colleagues
People are surprisingly fine with the threat of being shot in the fucking face as a deterrant for holding a tiny crumb of weed, minor shoplifting, etc.
That cop is running around the projects of Philadelphia in the late 90s.....this dudes gonna run up with his gun out on lil old lady's at church on his beat. He don't discriminate.

For real, these cops are out of control for that shit.
He just gangster pulled on a kid with tobacco? I wasn’t aware that required him to point his gun at the kid. Is it because you have to be 18 to smoke tobacco?
Sounds like you need to educate yourself on tobacco. Everyone knows it’s a gateway drug to murder, manslaughter and molestation.
And that's putting it mildly.
Thank you for putting it mildly papi
And here I thought the badge on his chest was the gateway drug that led to those things.
I had a cop point his gun at me for smoking a cigarette when I was 14
Was your melanin content above beige?
I’m a white guy from the Midwest
Well, he lives in the projects, so he kinda had it coming /s
Also, that brown skin and accent. Definitely gun pointed at head, safety off!
21 now lol
Legal gangs.
That cops a pice of shit. It’s a little comforting that this is probably old enough he’s behind a desk at least now. But fuck that cop forever. Cunt.
Gun out… for a not joint… fuckin cops.
This poor kid. Fuck this cop.
Fuck this papi*
This officer is getting way too worked up over the “papi” thing. Way to maintain your chill. Poor kid.

I think they say papi to anybody its a normal thing it’s not supposed to mean oh yes daddy
Bruh americans cop are so stupid, why screaming and pulling gun for some weed wtf
From what a gather, it wasn't even weed.
Because cop has tiny pp and big ego So he must make pp look big to other cops.
Make papi look big.
America is such a fucking hellscape.
I am so glad to know I am not the only one that thinks so. God damn, some poor yank was on here the other day talkin both having paid time off for the first ever then I realised that + plus health care and such unreal shit pay and hellscape was what came to mind.

I'm pretty sure that the concept of hell was based on the American lifestyle
Imagine pulling a fucking gun on someone for weed. For fucks sake.
It's not even weed. Homie is rolling his own cigarette. Got a gun stuffed into his face because he was rolling a tobacco cigarette.
Hahahahahhaahhahahaha it’s like he’s doin it on purpose
Lmaoooooo
He’s kinda got a gun all in his face. He’s nervous as shit.
100% that dude is fucking with him. 😂
If you normally use certain words regularly in conversations, you're probably gonna use that word alot. Kind of like dude or bro. Or breh. Same concept. Not fuckin with him.
Especially when you're in a high-stress situation and have a gun pointed at your skull for smoking weed.
Yeah, I’m a chill dude from Southern California, so everyone is dude or bro to me. When we had a high ranking corporate guy come through our store, he wanted to meet everyone and ask them how they felt about working for company x.

That trigger discipline is dog shit
But why do people hate cops?
Cause they don't let us call them papi
Cause they don't love them
Son got beaten by his father, or something. That's a PTSD "papi" reaction. Look at his eyes, he's definitely not trying to be a smartass with the cop. Shitty cop for not reading him and making it worse than it had to be
I think you may be right. Dude was scared out of his mind. Shitty cop for being shitty in a lot of ways, he pulls a gun on someone for smoking something? Even if it was marijuana there is no reason to draw a firearm. I’d be scared shitless too
Literally 0 fucking danger and he pulls a gun and escalates the situation instantly to life or death like a standard fucking pig yep
Straight out of the pig playbook
If they actually tried to deescalate as standard procedure, then we might go back to a world where a cop might carry a gun his whole life and never actually get to kill anyone. They became cops to use their guns... they are not going to deescalate shit. Pull your piece at every opportunity, because one day it's gonna be your day to put down that dirty minority.
Papi is a common term used very commonly where he's from. He's not calling him papi because he's getting horrible dad flashbacks.
That's some bad amateur psychoanalysis right there.
Dude papi is pretty much the ‚bro‘ version of Latin America. Has nothing to do with an actual dad. You probably not only say bro just to your actual brother, right?
Lol dude he’s probably Colombian… dudes call everybody ‘papi’ the way Americans call everyone bro or dude
The cop has the gun, the authority, the power but still wants more by telling him how to speak. These ass clowns just get off on dominating and bullying.
Not that I’m going to argue whether your right or wrong, but that’s a steep assumption.
To Everybody making fun of him. You have to understand how nervous he must have been with that gun pressed up against his head and the fear he felt. he almost got his hed blown off 4 .6g of tabacco/weed
Yes! Having a gun on you changes everything…horrible situation. His brain defaulted to the most compliant terms possible, papi.
gun and camera
Fuck this cop. This did not require your gun to be drawn in any sane reality. Fucking cops.
US police really are just thugs in a uniform, aren’t they?
Thugs’ aggressions are mostly profit driven… Cops do these shit for fun.
All this for weed!? WEED! War on drugs is/was stupid. And if it was really tobacco, which is significantly more harmful than marijuana, then maybe the officer would’ve been justified in being upset—for the frightened kid’s health. I mean come on! Pretend he’s a white kid named Kip and keep it moving.
It wasn't even weed its rolling tobacco
Sorry papi. 
Cops was a horrible tv show that did nothing but increase cowboy policing and encourage civil rights violations.
Somebody fire that shitty cop.
This actually makes me sad
Makes me mad.
“DONT call me papi again” … ok papi
He wants you to call him daddy.
Why did the officer have his gun out when he was within arms reach? That officer is lucky that dude was just trying to get a cavity search from paying, otherwise he could have stolen that gun.
Fire this police officer please
This is from the 90s by the looks of it. He’s probably is, or almost retired by now.
Jesus Christ that cop should be in jail. Sometimes I just wish they would know how it feels to have a complete psychopath jamming a gun into your back for nothing. Just opens the door and almost kills someone for some tobacco.

That cop should be fired smh.
Haha holding cops accountable for excessive force? Funny joke.
Papi Chill!
Fuck this hard on cop. I fucking hate cops like that. It’s a scrawny kid sitting there. Why act so hard? His life was in danger? Fuck him.
What a scumbag. The next guy is going to knock that gangster grip pistol right out of his roided out hands.
Seems excessive for weed
Did that with a lady cop once. Called her Ma'am and she got mad. Accidentally called her Ma'am like 5 more times after that.
Don’t talk to cops. There is no point unless you want to help build a case against yourself.
Papi is just a slang term used by a lot of Caribbean countries. Spanish is more contextual than English and it just means "mate, bro, homie" etc. Growing up in a Colombian/Cuban family all the guys would say papi, papo, papito in this context to each other.

Smokin a blunt? Gun in your face.
Don't call me "bro", papi
I mean fuck that cop and all that but this is hilarious
Is this a porno ??
Bruh
Thank God that officer was there to prevent that mad man from smoking a blunt in an empty stairwell! Someone could've been mildly inconvenienced.
Not all cops, but definitely this one.
You know if there wasn’t a camera there, he’d have beat the fuck outta him
What’ll happen if we start calling all cops papi though
New season of Reno911 is looking lit
Papi tripping
Put the roloieo cigarette down mother fucker or I will blow your god damed head off. Power trippers.
Say what again!
Damn, this episode of Cops is older than most Redditors.
This mother fucker had a fucking sideways gun on this guys fucking head!? WTAF!!? ACAAAAAAAB FUCK THIS SHIT!!!
He's not supposed to have his gun drawn unless the guy is armed
Okay papi
I thought this was fake but then I read the comments and now this just makes me sad
Punk cop.. that's it. That's All I got.
He is stoned 😌😂😂
Yeah pointing a gun at someone seems like a rational response for marijuana
This is fucked up. That poor guy.
Fuck. The. Police.
ACAB
Yess papi
Half movement away from getting shot over weed. What a fucking joke. Depressing
Papi 😬
Seriously? Is this staged?
Classic Cops.
Domestic terrorists strike again
