  • I remember this too. Isn't it just saying "Helicopter one reporting heavy traffic."?

  • Apparently it's legit police radio chatter recorded in Los Angeles in the 1970s!

  • They are really hard to lassoo though.

  • Ok from the name I would have assumed an artist who works specifically with flat sheets of metal and a rounded hammer.

  • The lead will protect me balls from 5G.

  • Alright then, keep your secrets!

  • Cable hype is in every industry. You can buy hundred-dollar gold plated "Gaming" HDMI cables that are no better than any other HDMI cord

  • There's a really good book called "All the Shahs men" too which I really enjoyed

  • There is a "Wilhelm Scream" for TV police radio chatter. It's a sound effect that you've probably heard hundreds of times without realising it. I first encountered it while playing SimCity 3000 and it has bugged me for 20 years because I couldn't work out what was said.

    Here is the soundbite and an extensive list of TV show episodes and movies where it's been spotted:

    Now, I think I cracked it last year:

    Please go listen to it for a few times and write down what is being said before you read my analysis

    "Beta, scrub for one-forty-eight-nine St Andrews; prowler heard, not seen."

    She's saying that the Beta (backup) unit(s) should scrub (cancel) their dispatch order to 1489 St Andrews because the alpha unit no longer needs backup. The complainant has said that a prowler (someone lurking outside) was heard, but not seen. Probably the alpha unit suspects it to be a false alarm on that basis.

    This is only my guess, based on listening to it 1 billion times, but it seems to fit the context of the soundbite. Why she refers to backup as "Beta" instead of the NATO phonetic "Bravo" is a bit odd, but maybe that's just her preference, or maybe current NATO phonetic wasn't as common in policing in the 70s

  • Lembas bread but it's 1000 years past it's due date and you will get diarrhoea equivalent to its food value.

  • Full English, Bleu rare

  • Ron Paul's estranged gay son

  • Must be a nice change to get "Cunt" messages from random numbers instead of getting "Cunt" messages from his colleagues.

  • Just more old white dudes. Hardly an innovative political party.

  • Memes. It's an archive of memes.

  • This habit is fine until you realise you can't turn it off.

  • Abrahms or Challenger II?

  • Expecto parabellum!

  • Or the bodyfarm dogs for weeks
