cant read acab without thinking “assigned cop at birth”
There’s always a brief moment moment of deep confusing when I read AFAB
Is AFAB like ABFAB?
Assigned Female at Birth
ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS
Hey now, let’s not be totally hasty here
Juniors still got a lot to learn from the Intimidator
Unpopular opinion: the show was kinda cool. Not because it’s very realistic, but because it had really good writing. Well except for the computer science, but that much is obvious.
I remember reading somewhere that TV show writers/producers are well aware of this and it’s kind of a sport to get the most ridiculous hacking scene in.
Real hacking would be kind of boring to show, it would just be a guy staring at a screen for hours on end and occasionally typing something.
NCIS is legitimately one of the stupidest shows in the history of television.
I simply do not understand the appeal
If cops in real life acted like cops in fiction, people wouldn’t hate them as much
Columbo comes to mind, he refuses to carry a gun and goes after the wealthy and powerful, including other cops. If only real cops were so chill.
That’s because most fictional cops have ethics, empathy, and a conscience.
Lmao idk if “most” even holds up in fiction. Even the “good” cops in fiction tend to perform illegal searches, abuse suspects, break the law in countless ways to get the bad guys. How many times have we seen the “good guys” stymied by their inability to search a home but one turns to the other and sarcastically says “oh I think I heard someone scream for help lol” kicks down the door?
Sometimes they have a conscience but I’d call very few fictional cops “good”
That’s “okay”, though, because we, the viewers, often know that the suspect is guilty. The cops still come off as good (and smart, with good intuition as well) because we know for certain that they’re doing the “right” thing.
