1. UK woman calls police regarding inadequate sprinkles on her ice-cream. True story.





UK woman calls police in ice-cream row


UK police have released a recording of a woman who called the cops to request help in a row over the number of sprinkles on an ice-cream.
The caller, who was not named (and for good reason I suspect) by the West Midlands Police, contacted emergency operators on Monday while arguing with the owner of an ice-cream van.
During a minute-long call, the indignant woman told the operator: "It doesn't seem like much of an emergency, but it is a little bit because I've ordered an ice-cream and he's put bits on one side and none on the other.
"He's refusing to give me my money back and saying that I've got to take it like that."

Urging the public not to misuse the emergency system, Chief Superintendent Jim Andronov said: "If someone is trying to get through to report a genuine life or death emergency, then a minute is a very long time to wait.
"I cannot stress enough that the 999 number is for emergencies only."

Dear god. My only hope is that this woman never breeds...
