Wite-Out can fix almost any mistake, but no amount of Wite-Out will make you disappear after you've been arrested for drunk driving. Unless you're made of ink. But even then, you'd need a lot of Wite-Out. And ink can't drive. Or drink, for that matter ... Whatever. Anyway, some fool in police custody in Omaha took a swig from a bottle of the famed correction fluid while no one was looking, but it did nothing to erase his plight. In fact, it made it worse.
And the whole thing was caught on tape, Omaha.com reports. Teehee! It went a little something like this: Juan Briceno was sitting next to a police desk while an officer was sorting out paperwork when he noticed the Wite-Out. The tape shows him picking it up and tapping it on the desk. When the officer walks away, Briceno twirls the bottle around a bit and rolls it on the desk. One can almost see his bad idea jeans taking over at this point. Then he glances over his shoulder, untwists the cap and takes a swig. The cop comes back, and Briceno hastily covers his mouth with his hand. When a technician comes in to administer the breathalyzer, he notices Briceno's bright white lips and points them out to the officer. Since Briceno was unpracticed in the art of mime when he was hauled into the joint, they knew something was up. Officers escorted Briceno out of the building for a blood test. Too bad he didn't have any Wite-Out left over for his permanent record -- He registered a .28 blood alcohol level and earned himself a felony conviction to boot. Pardon me, do you have access to therapy? Note to self: That whole Grey Poupon thing? Not funny in Utah. One carload of pranksters learned this the hard way, the Salt Lake Tribune reports. When the pranksters' car pulled up next to a lone motorist, they got him to roll down his window. The driver of the prankmobile then drolly asked the dude, "Excuse me, sir. Do you have any Grey Poupon?" The driver was not amused. And by "not amused," we mean, in no uncertain terms, "an unbalanced individual." He promptly pulled out a gun from his glove box, cocked it and pointed it at the peeps in the other car. "Here's your Grey Poupon, roll your @*^&$! Windows up," he said. Uhhhhhhhh ... wow. One of the pranksters wrote down the friendly driver's license plate, and police managed to track him down. He admitted to the whole thing and was charged with aggravated assault. I guess he's more of a ketchup kind of guy. 2 CommentsLeave a comment |

"One can almost see his bad idea jeans taking over at this point."
Hopefully, it was actually his bad idea GENES that took over. I don't think he can get away with claiming his (blue) jeans made him do it, any more than he can disappear with a bottle of Wite-Out.
You've gotta give him credit for thinking (or not) outside the box, though!
Only in the usa. Too much inbreeding of idiots EH!
