Florida Man Calls 911 Over Size of Clams at Restaurant

Let’s give Florida Man credit in the following story:


At least this time he didn’t throw an alligator through a Wendy’s drive-thru window.


But he did cause a different sort of stink at a different kind of restaurant.




911


As documented by The New York Post, Nelson Agosto ordered a seafood meal at Crabby’s Seafood Shack in Stuart, Florida a few days ago… only to create a major raucous when the food arrived.


According to the incident report of what transpired, an employee warned Agosto about the size of the clams before he placed his order, yet he still insisted on including them in his dinner.


Fair enough.


A man is certainly entitled to eat some small clams if he so desires.


After the 51-year-old received his food, however, he whined to the manager about the exact issue the waiter had discussed: the less-than-ideal size of the clams in his meal.


“He was complaining that the clams he was eating were so small, he didn’t want to pay for them,” police spokesman Sgt. Brian Bossio said last week, per local news outlets.

The establishment responded to Agosto’s complaints by giving him another order of clams, free of charge, but this still did not satisfy the patron.


So he called 911.


In the emergency call transcript released by the police department, Agosto tells the dispatcher: “I ordered something, and it was extremely so small.”


The operator calmly replied that this wasn’t an appropriate reason to dial 911 and gave him the number for the non-emergency line.


Shortly afterward, Agosto called 911 twice more to complain about the clams, claiming he “couldn’t get through” to the alternative line given to him by the dispatcher.


When police responded to Agosto’s calls, he explained he called 911 because he forgot the non-emergency phone number after the first call, according to King 5.




small clam


Eventually, police officers arrested Agosto via summons on a misdemeanor charge of misusing 911.


“It was an arrest, but the officer did not take the guy to jail,” Bossio told a reporter.


We suppose he didn’t really deserve to spend time behind bars for this act.


But he definitely should be banned from ever eating seafood, like, ever again.


In Agosto’s’ defense, too, this wasn’t the dumbest act ever committed by a Florida resident.

Florida Woman Wants to Be Elected to Congress, Says She Was Abducted by Aliens

Over the years, you’ve likely read about that time a Florida Woman tried to impregnate her slave with her boyfriend’s sperm.


Or the time a Florida Woman was so desperate for Chicken McNuggets that she hoped to exchange oral sex for this fast food delicacy.


But this is a new one, even for the much-maligned and often-controversial Florida Woman:



Bettina Rodriguez Aguilera claims she was abducted by aliens at the age of seven.


Oh, and she’s running for Congress!


A one-time council member from Doral, Aguilera previously described her alleged interaction with extraterrestrials in multiple interviews uncovered by The Miami Herald.


The politician says two large-bodied females and one male visited her when she was a child and have communicated telepathically with her multiple times since then.


In a 2009 Q&A, Aguilera outlined “going up” into a spaceship with these beings and spending time as their captive/guest.


“I went in. There were some round seats that were there, and some quartz rocks that controlled the ship – not like airplanes,” Rodriguez Aguilera said.




BOA


In separate videos posted to YouTube many years ago – one by local Spanish-language station America TeVe and another by a political critic with the user name DoralGirl26 – Rodriguez Aguilera talked in detail about these experiences.


She said the alien beings reminded her of the famous statue in Rio de Janeiro, Christ the Redeemer, with arms outstretched.


As for what she learned from these aliens?


– There are 30,000 skulls (“different from humans”) in a cave in the Mediterranean island of Malta.


– The world’s “energy center” is located in Africa.


– The Coral Castle, a limestone tourist attraction South Miami-Dade, is actually an ancient Egyptian pyramid.


– Simply, “God is a universal energy.”




Bettina Rodriguez Aguilera ad


Aguilera isn’t really denying this story, either.


She’s running to replace retiring Miami Republican Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen and responded to The Herald’s request for comment as follows:


“For years people, including Presidents like Ronald Reagan and Jimmy Carter and astronauts have publicly claimed to have seen unidentified flying objects and scientists like Stephen Hawking and institutions like the Vatican have stated that there are billions of galaxies in the universe and we are probably not alone.


“I personally am a Christian and have a strong belief in God, I join the majority of Americans who believe that there must be intelligent life in the billions of planets and galaxies in the universe.”


She also thinks the newspaper is out to get her.


“The Miami Herald article is clearly an attack piece,” Aguilera told The Washington Post, adding:


“I’m a person who owns up to who I am.


“And this is just an experience that I had. It has nothing to do with who I am and what I have shown in the past 40 years and what a positive role model I’ve been to the community.”


We’d say she has no chance of winning, but… you’ve seen who is in the White House, right?

Hot Florida Cop Goes Viral, Clearly Hates Jewish People

Earlier this week, the Internet was nearly brought down by a photo of three cops.


They were employed by the Gainesville Police Department and they were on their way to assist victims of Hurricane Irma.


Also, they were attractive. Like, really, REALLY attractive.



As a result, nearly every woman with a connection to the World Wide Web wanted these hot heroes to use their handcuffs for reasons that went beyond law enforcement…


… if you know what we mean.


One of these police officers is named Michael Hamill – and it turns out he’s living proof that one can be both handsome and hateful.


We hate to be the ones to break this to you. But it’s true.


Some sleuthing by The Gainesville Sun has turned up old Facebook messages written by Hamill in which he comes across like a proud member of Team Nazi.


For example:


“i find it funny that people will talk about how our government needs to do something about our economy and in reality its YOU who needs to stop taking advantage of our system and get a life and so something with your life,” he wrote in 2011, actually adding:


“Gotta love reality when it hits you in the face. Stupid people annoy me. put them in an oven and deal with them the hitler way. haha”




hot mean cop


Ummm…. LOL? We guess?


Actually, no: we guess not.


Another post from 2013, which was shared by Facebook users and attributed to the officer, said the following:


“reading jewish jokes before i go to bed would not only make me feel better about myself but also help me to sleep better as well.”


Did he have a Jewish joke to offer at the time? He sure did!


“here is one for everybody: What’s the difference between boy scouts and Jews?’ anybody know?


“well it is because ‘Boy scouts come back from their camps.’”


Get it? Because the Jews were killed by poisonous gas inside of their Nazi-run concentration camps! Hilarious, right?!?




bad cop


Hamill is yet to comment on these controversial posts.


A Gainesville Police Department spokesman said in a statement on the department’s Facebook page that they were “reviewing the allegation” and that an any information about the complaint of anti-Semitism was confidential until the investigation comes to an end.


“The Gainesville Police Department prides itself with our philosophy and mission of compassion, inclusion, and respect and will fully review the matter,” the statement says.



“I’ve never had this much attention before,” Hamill told Time Magazine on Wendesday. “It’s an ego boost – very flattering and funny.”


He added:


“My wife, she obviously wasn’t happy at first, but she’s taking it like a champ.”

Florida Man With Joker Face Tattoos Arrested For Good of Society

“Why so serious?” 29-year-old Lawrence Patrick Sullivan might have asked police when they slapped the cuffs on him Tuesday night.


We’re sure the Jared Leto Joker, whom he’s clearly meant to resemble, also has some sort of catchphrase, but we’re not googling “Suicide Squad dialogue,” and you can’t make us.



Anyway, it’s not illegal to spend your life looking like Hot Topic merchandise come to life (yet), so what exactly was Sullivan arrested for?


Brandishing a gun at a group of strangers, which seems decidedly un-Joker-like.


Like, the Joker is a nihilistic agent of chaos and a criminal mastermind.


According to an arrest affidavit, Sullivan was taken into custody after waving a loaded Smith & Wesson outside the West Kendall apartment complex near Miami.


“I have a gun in my pocket,” Sullivan told arresting officers.



Asked if he had a concealed weapons permit, Sullivan replied that the application process is too expensive.


Frankly, we think the self-described male model would be more convincing as the world’s first meth-fueled supervillain, The Smoker.


Sullivan is reportedly free and awaiting trial after posting $ 5,000 bail.


To the surprise of not a single person on the planet, court documents reveal that he lives with his mother.


Thankfully, no one got hurt, which means the story of Batman’s lamest adversary is the rare non-tragic piece of gun-related national news.



But does the Broke Joker deserve a spot in our prestigious Florida Man Hall of Fame?


Is his story up there with the guy who tried to cash a $ 368 billion check to finance his underwater restaurant?


Or the Sunshine State gent who attacked a cop with his own badge after he was busted having sex with trees?


Probably not, in terms of sheer entertainment value, but there are many varieties of crazy in the land of citrus, and we like to take time to appreciate the subtler flavors.



And besides, this dude is gonna walk around looking like that for the rest of his life, which is pretty damn bonkers.


And so, Lawrence Patrick Sullivan of Miami, we hereby induct you into the prestigious Florida Man Hall of Fame.


If you want, we can send you a certificate that your mom can put on the fridge next to your newspaper clippings.
