Part of the reason charges dont stick to cops. Cops also lie all the time in court, they know how to do it, and they're good at it. They're also good at outsmarting a district attorney that really doesn't want to successfully prosecute a cop, since nobody wants to be the one (crazy enough) who does. District attorneys want to successfully prosecute people they know they have a good chance of making a charge stick around for a while. Interestingly enough, trying to prosecute cops lowers their conviction rate, so you'd think they'd try to do a better job at it.
The cop was wearing a teflon shirt in the courtroom like many before him. Many had tried to make a charge stick and ended up wasting everybody's time in doing so.

Get the Teflon shirt mug.The basketball player had always wanted to say to somebody, you are way out of your depth here, but had to look in the Guinness Book of World Records to find somebody who he/she could say it to that would believe him/her. He/she was tired of everybody being able to say to him/her, but not being able to say it to anybody else, since a giant was hard to come by.

Get the European descent mug.Orange is the color between red and yellow. Red is often nature's color of danger or caution, and orange is almost as dangerous and cautionary! Orange gets your attention and tells you "Hey, you see that guy in the red shirt over there? That's the most dangerous guy in the room, and I'm the next most dangerous guy after him because my shirt is orange. If the guy in the red shirt wasn't here, that would make me the most dangerous guy so watch out!" Guys who wear red shirts will usually show up to a place just to be the most dangerous guy in the room wearing the red shirt though, that's less pressure on the color orange.
Oh that orange sign ahead is telling me there's road construction. Well, I'm glad nobody got hurt today.

Get the Playing all sides mug.A lot of people take a handshake as a sign of trust by both parties (and as a weakness, where it would be stupid to trust someone who's given you no good reason to trust them). Shaking hands, pounding fists, or bumping elbows often seems like an attempt to force another party to trust, make peace, or do business with another, which is why some people dont readily shake everybody's hand when they meet them (especially people they dont know, or dont know well). Not shaking hands lets the other party know the trust isn't there, and isn't guaranteed to get there.
Realistically, not everything works out between two people. A handshake doesn't fix anything, it only gives one party the sense that everything is okay with the other party. People should not rely on a handshake to determine whether everything is okay between two people or not.

Get the Handshake mug.A movie about a guy who lives out alternate lives because somebody must have thought he didn't appreciate what he had.
The way Don Cheadle looks as serious and heartfelt as he does when he asks Nicholas Cage if he wants to die in The Family Man, nobody laughs, they instead get put on edge when they realize this guy is not the natural comedian/joker they thought he was trying to be, he really wants somebody dead to make himself fit the tough image, and you can see it in his eyes.
