What we do in the shadows
Today, I discovered that sitting in the back of your car from 8 to 9 p.m. talking with a friend in a park area is suspicious enough behavior to have cops called on you, then for backup to arrive. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was chilling out with my friend in a parking lot, when a police officer came up to the vehicle and suspiciously asked what we were up to. My friend sarcastically said, "Uh, doing drugs? Planning a drive-by? Haha!" We soon found ourselves in the back of a cop car. FML
Today, I was waiting after work in a parking lot for my ride and was dancing a little to keep warm. Next thing I know the cops pull up to me and said that someone called in to report someone dancing in an empty parking lot. FML
Today, after taking my crush to the train station late at night, I sat in a local park alone with my thoughts for a while. Two cops appeared out of nowhere and started searching me for drugs and weapons, asking me questions for a good 30 minutes. Not the kind of action I expected tonight. FML
Today, I decided I'd take a nap in my car because I got to work very early. As I was waking up from my nap, I saw a cop looking right at me. Turns out, a lady who'd parked her car right next to mine after I was asleep had called the cops on me because she thought I was dead. FML
Today, I had the cops called on me for acting suspiciously. I was using a payphone. FML
Today, I was having a rough day and decided to go out for a walk at 1 a.m. to clear my head. I ended up being driven home by two cops, who thought I was prostituting myself at the truck stop. When we arrived, they had a nice conversation with my parents. FML
Today, I found an empty parking space in a crowded parking lot. When I came back later, a lady and a cop were standing by my car. Her car used to be parked there and got stolen. They think I'm involved. FML
Today, the cops showed up at my work because people were fighting in the parking lot. This is a nightly occurrence. FML
Today, I caught some perverts sitting in a car in front of my house, spying on my neighbors. When they refused to leave, I grabbed a baseball bat and they sped off in a hurry. Later, those same perverts came back to arrest my neighbors for drug trafficking. I had threatened cops. FML
Today, I parked next to a police officer's car in a bad part of town. When I got out, I saw a bag of pot on the ground between the cop's car and mine. When I pointed it out to him, he insisted it was mine and interrogated me to the point of tears. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

And it is very suspicious behavior. I can't believe you people calling them ******* pigs. Most likely a concerned citizen called 911 to report these people were in a public park in the night sitting in the back seat of a car. In case you didn't realize, public parks are a hot spot for illegal drug activity. The police are here to protect you and enforce the laws. Don't come here and bitch about it.

Anyone that calls 911 to report two people sitting in a car is an idiot. That's what the non-emergency number is for. People like that are the reason it takes the cops an hour to show up when you do call 911 - they're too busy responding to dumb shit like this.

Let's say it was a drug activity. Once my sister and her friend were talking like this (except in the front seats like normal people) and a cop went up to the car and questioned them. Turns out, there was recent activities of women being hurt/kidnapped around the park and the cop was checking out to see if my sister was hurt. I hate how people disrespect cops. Yes there are bad officers, but there are bad people no matter the job. Get over it; they are not there to ruin your life. Crap happens sometimes.

welcome to the suburbs baby... if i wrote an FML about every time this bullshit happened to me i'd clog the whole system :/ they make up lies a lot of the time too to incriminate you, you just have to call their bluff and get the **** out of there as fast as you can

Um... Parks in the US close at night. If you're there after they close, the people who live across from it will probably call the cops on you because they have people who like to smoke pot and do a lot of property damage out there a lot. Just from experience.

Same thing happened to me, not only did two backup cars come. i also got breathalyzed because my breath smelled funny.

#6, I sincerely doubt that. Try saying that to a Mexican or a Brazilian and they'll probably laugh in your face.

The same thing happened to me, except I was watching a portable DVD player with my girlfriend.

Ok bro, sitting in your car in a dark park is suspicious, and being a patrol cop in a suburban neighborhood is boring as hell, so the weren't calling for backup because you were suspicious or they were afraid of you, they were just showing their friends which two jackasses were caught having gay sex in the park tonight.
