Straight up, one time we got called out to "check on" a homeless woman sleeping at a bus stop. It's no surprise, people weaponize EMS/Fire to harass sleeping homeless people because the cops sometimes won't do shit and we can't say "no, they're just sleeping and obviously not dead, dipshit", because there's always the one chance that they aren't actually sleeping and really are dead or dying. So, we show up, and fire beat us there. They're checking on her and basically telling us "hold on, she's refusing care." We hold tight and they cut us loose after a few minutes. Well, fire ended up clearing us from the scene. Later on, we run into that same crew, and they told us that on their way to this next call, that same woman ran right out into the middle of the big ass boulevard (it was night), almost in front of them, and started hopping up and down shooting them birds akimbo. Good times.

Wise woman. Birds aren't real.

Wait, does "birds akimbo" mean her boobs were flapping about?

[–] [email protected] 27 points 17 hours ago

Her middle fingers

[–] [email protected] 19 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Sorry, middle fingers. Showing the middle finger is sometimes called flipping the bird.

But what does the akimbo part mean?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 hour ago

Please go and watch the movie Guns Akimbo. It demonstrates the concept and is one of the best damn action movies ever produced.

Both hands. Like in games where you have a pistol or smg in both hands.
