stop and chat

when you see someone you dont really know too well or someone you have not seen in a long time in a public place and they want to stop and chat with you. They always seem to happen at the worst possible times too.
I hate stop and chats and it just happened twice! i just wanted to get a birthday card at the dollar store...thats what i get for thinking i could make a quick 5 minute trip without showering, wearing socks or putting on deodorant....

truck stop

a)A little roadside hole in the wall where the strangling odor of trucker poop mingles with cigarette smoke. The rest rooms are right at the entrance so you get a good whiff and lose your appetite.

b) Having to take a crap "I gotta go to the truck stop."
"Can you turn at this next exit? There is a truck stop and I gotta go make the brown rumble."

Hard Stop

Term used by police in the UK. A "Hard Stop" is where a suspect is given no pre-warning (no shouting of "Police, stop!" etc) and where the element of surprise gives officers the advantage.

Hard Stops are most commonly used on suspected drug dealers (to prevent them disposing / swallowing the evidence) and suspected armed individuals, to prevent them from opening fire.
"Echo Zulu 714, urgent assistance - possible drug deal in progress on West Street, anyone to backup?"

"Control calling any patrol... 714 requiring assistance on West Street."

"Echo Zulu 21, we're responding - is this a hard stop?"

"Echo Zulu 714, yes yes!"
