My 911 Calls

Weird: "There's a car spun out in the median."
Operator: Did this just happen?
"I can't tell. It's covered in a bit of ice. But I just didn't feel comfortable."

Even weirder: "We were driving westbound on 490, by the airport exit, and a car just lost control. It spun out and hit a huge light pole and knocked it over."
Operator: What color is the vehicle?
"White, I mean, no, black. I'm not sure."



Weirdest: "There's a fire in my kitchen! And the flames are shooting up into the ceiling. And, uh, well, my brother just knocked the plastic dish onto the floor and put it out. Do you still have to come?"
Operator (exasperated): Yes.
