Q*Bert Reynolds

As a LEGO System bricks enjoyer, I also call them legos. When I need to blow my nose and the box is too far away, I ask someone to pass the kleenexes. If I have a headache, I ask for some asprins.

When has a cop ever approached your car with an NFC reader?

I’ve never understood the appeal of digital driver’s licenses. If I get pulled over, there’s no fucking way I’m unlocking my phone and handing it to a cop.
