Bragging Rights

I had made a Walmart run at 10:30 pm, since it’s the only store still open and I was in desperate need of some staple items. While standing in line at the checkout, I overheard the conversation of three punk teenagers buying a new stereo. They were discussing noteworthy arrests among themselves and their friends, and one of them (very loudly) said, “Dude, that’s nothing! I got busted for having a shitload of cocaine in my car.” The girl with him laughed, apparently agreeing that his arrest was better, and then went back to complaining about how she had to go pick up her car from the impound lot because she got a third DUI. And this is something to be bragging about
