...They Will Adorn Themselves with Pajamas After 10pm.
Tonight has been all things full moon/payday inspired. The fine denizens of the area have taken it upon themselves to imbibe and let their hair hang out and then take it out on each other. At no time during their dumbass altercations did it occur to them to rub two brain cells together, "I coulda gotten 'em if I hadn't had these shoes on!" but when HFD and HPD arrive they are suddenly masters and mistresses of hair-splitting the nuances of property and ownership, misunderstandings of warrants, and how drunk is too drunk.
No good comes out of people milling around after midnight. One of the guys in the back said that if you go to withdraw lots of money after 1AM a grandmother-type figure should pop out of the ATM and lecture on how nothing good is going to come out of you spending that money this late at night and you should be ashamed and the odds are great right at this moment you do not have clean underwear on and no girl/guy is going to want someone too dumb to know when to come in out of the rain.
However, the calls we did run that had people respectibly clothed in pegnoirs, flannel pants, and night bonnets though not much brighter than the average 5 watt bulb were at least sincere and genuinely concerned and at no time did I feel their footwear was the thing standing between them moving around in drunken brawl weight classes or at any moment did I feel they were going to start throwing their furniture on the lawn and make the police launch into them in a flying tackle.
Get some PJs. Put them on.
