The haircut doesn't seem so bad to me. He looks pretty alright to me. I would give him a high five.

Wow that just made my night

Quote:
So driving home today, I got pulled over. I have pretty light tint all around including the fronts, so I knew I'd eventually get in trouble.

Cop asked me if I knew why he pulled me over, I said I had no idea, since I saw him from a long ways back and went speed limit the whole time he was beside/behind me. Told me front window tint is illegal in Alberta, asked for my license and registration. I handed it over.

He took a look for a good 30 seconds, comparing my drivers license to my face. Some of you may remember I did the Cul-de-sac for crohn's charity event here, where I shaved my head into a sweet ass cul-de-sac for a week. Well, I thought it'd be a good idea to get my drivers' license updated with that picture, so until 2011, my drivers license has a picture of me with a cul-de-sac, along with a weaksauce moustache from Moustache March. Yes, it looks ridiculous.

Back to the story, cop asks me what's up with the picture. I explained the whole charity thing, and he asked if I raised a lot of money. Jokingly, I said looking that ridiculous, going to tons of public events (I went to the Blowfish grand opening where press was present too lol), a lot of ppl appreciated it and donated so it was a good turnout. He laughed, said consider this a warning, and let me go. No fix-it ticket, didn't ask me to remove the tint, just let me go. SWEEEET!

Karma baby!!!
LMFAO!!

Lucky SOB. Out here the cop would think you're a crackhead and arrest you on the spot

Off-topic: Looks like we found the perfect idea for the YW contest. The $50 prize should buy the winner a nice hairpiece LOL

I'm pretty sure he was registered here, maybe it was pre-hack.

Anyways, the Yaris in question:

Apparently very light tint, although it doesnt even show on the front. Maybe this was a pre-tint pic/

I think those windows are tinted. When they say light tint, I'm assuming they mean like 71%. I had that on a Pontiac and you could hardly notice it.
