Here's to those who took the idea of public service and kicked it up a notch. Here's a batch of cops protecting and serving in their communities. Kinda weird seeing them be cool and not asking you how fast you were going. For funny stories, here are some of the dumbest things people said to cops.

If you've ever found yourself "accidentally" doing something illegal, it's easy to get paranoid and imagine there could be an authority figure behind any tree, corner, or about to pop out of a storm drain. Now imagine you're fishing illegally and you find yourself reeling in a fish and game warden, like a goddamn cartoon. On the other side of the spectrum, here are stories of 17 police officers encounters with criminal masterminds.

Writer and editor Jessica Misener explained the details behind the Sunshine Law and why the reason we see so many crazy stories out of Florida is pretty much because it's just easier to get stories out of Florida. If the laws were different, we'd probably see more Montana Man or Nebraska Woman stories. 

This one does not reflect well on the bank. This dude's brother went through years of extra work and thousands of documents in search of justice, and that's what he found.

When the world told these people, animals, and things to not do things, they did them, by gum. Not necessarily enough to get themselves in trouble, but more just for the thrill of breaking the rules. If you wanna see more people break the world in a way that it can be easily repaired by tomorrow, then here's more.

Whether you're driving a stolen car up to a police station or not covering your face while stealing security cameras, there are less embarrassing ways to get arrested. These people had some interesting stories to tell about idiots they know. Turns out people say some really stupid things around police.

Do you keep waving people in at a stop sign even though you have the right of way? Quit it. You should be predictable, not nice. Do you cut off faster drivers trying to merge? What's that all about? Here are some things dumbasses seem to forget about while driving.

You've got to get real specific when it comes to rules unless you want to deal with people finding ALL the loopholes. Outside of that, sometimes you end up confronting an entirely avoidable scenario that only came about because you told someone not to do the thing. See Prohibition era. 

Just because something is legal to do, does not mean it's the right thing to do. Here are some serious A-holes who sadly got what they wanted.

The rule of thumb seems to be here that if you have to ask, it's probably illegal.

The pun-tastic New South Wales police force carries the duty to protect and serve memes.

Sure, some of these definitely reflect people in dire need of a chill pill; but others, oh boy....talk about the bane of our existence. 

The dude has seen it all. These are our favorites:

Behold, one of the few instances I can imagine actually wanting to lend the floor to long-winded tales of courtroom drama and woe, as retold by alleged lawyers, no less. 

These people are truly pieces of work.
