I had a drum that was stored on a huge wardrobe and was pretty unstable. One day, as i opened the wardrobe, the drum fell on my head. I laugh about it today because fortunately, the wound was not as severe as i though at first.

These little bribes are very common in the US. Shops/restaurants give cops free food/drinks to stay on their good side, and so the cops will "patrol" the area more.

I gave the small town police a dunkin gift card for taking the time to drive up to a trail head parking lot in the mountains, in the winter, and pick up my expensive crampons that I had left there. I figured they didn't have to do it for some forgetful tourist. They said "no no" to the gift at first but I insisted.
