I suppose police wouldn't be doing this if they didn't think it would work in the first place.

What makes you think that?

New words are cool, but people misusing literally drive me crazy and I reserve the right to ridicule them.

Criticism and "grammar tightasses" are part of the dynamic for our evolving language. As the fine folks at Beg The Question put it:

Descriptivist linguists, whom we do not fault for their stand, are quite free to watch as we bring about an evolution in the vernacular understanding.

The YouTube video doesn't do this justice, it is best seen in HD: http://www.gametrailers.com/game/9201.html

In text, that is written "FAP FAP FAP".

A dress that allows you to be picked up by the fuzz is, by definition, too revealing.

Thanks for the link - there's also a lot of interesting discussion in the group. Here's the link to the main group page: http://www.flickr.com/groups/62585667@N00/

I used to participate in a local gun club where we held "pin matches" - shooting five bowling pins off a table as fast as possible.

In one match, the bullet ricocheted off the bowling pin, then off the ceiling, and struck the shooter in the forehead. Of course at that point the bullet had lost most of its energy (and at a maximum would have the force of being struck by the weight of the bowling pin).

It didn't break the skin, but the shooter got a lump on his noggin, and a bullet for a souvenir.

According to Cook's Illustrated magazine, "in a 1995 tasting of vanilla extracts, the results left us perplexed. Most participants in that tasting, including pastry chefs and baking experts, couldn't tell the difference between imitation vanilla and the real thing: pure vanilla extract.

Even though we have repeated that tasting and gotten the same results, we've never quite overcome our disbelief. So we're back again, this time tasting eight different vanillas in plain yellow butter cake and crème anglaise, a simple vanilla-flavored custard sauce. The contestants ranged from inexpensive imitation flavors (bought at a drugstore) to supermarket and boutique pure vanilla extracts that cost eight times as much. Confidently, we gathered over piles of cake and plate after plate of custard sauce and challenged our taste buds to recognize the differences that we knew must be there.

Let's cut to the chase: It happened again."

The best buy was CVS (yes the drugstore) Premium Imitation Vanilla - $0.99 for a whopping 8oz bottle.
