Said over and over by cops on those reality shows while three of 'em are sitting on some blokes head.
By bullying some mild drunk and rough handling him they of course get the reaction they want so they can all rough him up and make the situation worse.
Easy to play the uniformed thug when you've got mates to help you out...with the constant chant of "Calm down" so the audience think they're dealing with the Yorkshire Ripper.0 -

:D:D The advice I give on here is based on my many years in the preservation industry. I choose to remain anonymous, I have no desire to get work from anyone. No one can give 100% accurate advice on a forum if I get it wrong you'll get a sincere apology and that's all:D
Don't like what I have to say? Call me on 0800 KMA;)0 -
The one that bugs me is when I'm in work and I answer the phone and someone asks to speak to one of my colleagues. If the line is engaged quite often the usual response is "well how long will they be?" How the hell am I supposed to know how long they are going to be on the phone?!"That's no reason to cry. One cries because one is sad. For example, I cry because others are stupid, and that makes me sad."0

I really hate when people - especially complete strangers - say cheer up, it might never happen.
Some complete idiot of a stranger said that to me in a shop once...3 hours after my grandad died......he ran off sharpish when I started crying hysterically - serves him right!!! :rotfl:0 -
When I'm looking frantically for something, one of my Granny's pearls of wisdom springs to mind - "You'll never find a thing but where it is".....Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr." The greatest wealth is to live content with little."
