“What Is The Nature Of Your Emergency?” “I Appear To Be Lost In An Administrative Loop”
This is hardly the dumbest 911 story we’ve ever seen, but something about it keeps saying “Steve, post me,” so who am I to argue?

Update: Thanks to Leah in the comments for sharing the excellent news that the app won’t be going away after all! By the way, we have a subscription now, and it’s already helped us out a couple of times. I think we’ve even sold it to one of our constantly travelling friends. He watched it …

Slam Bam Indeed
Not exactly a Kiss This Guy moment since I know full well what Neal McCoy is saying here, but do not even try to convince me that you don’t hear “wank” every time he says “wink”. I’ve been hearing it that way since 1994.
