      I just want to say that I understand the reference for this and for anyone wondering there was a video of a cop who thought an acorn falling on a car roof was a gunshot and he immediately empties an entire magazine into a car while wildly combat rolling like a terrified toddler.

      The body cam footage would be hilarious if it wasn’t so fucking terrifying.

        Oh and “the car” was a squad car after detaining an individual. Both officers dump their mag, but, yeah, acorn cop started it. Guy won a ton of money, rightfully. Lucky he didn’t die.

        And yelling “I’m hit! I’m hit!” at his partner, who then also shot at the vehicle.

      I 100% heard an acorn hit a car that other day and my first thought was that it was a gun shot. I’m not being sarcastic. I laughed to myself afterwards
