The best stories are True Life stories---they're the most messed up!!!
Before most of you were born I was attending college and dating a woman 15 years older than me. Her name was Karen. Her nickname was Taz--as in "The Tasmanian Devil". She was a graduate student getting her Counselling degree. She did part time free work counselling abused wives and children who'd left abusive husbands. I discovered how sincerely she trusted me the night she let me drive her to a safe house for victims.
No small thing, folks. Truly.
Side note: She was a 3rd degree black belt who'd sparred with Bill "Superfoot" Wallace.

She was always inviting me to punch her in the belly--AS HARD AS I POSSIBLY COULD!!!--because...well...she was that kind of a gall.
Anyway, we were leaving her favorite watering hole and we were both drunk "Three Sheets Into The Wind". Among other other drinks she'd introduced me to 151 Rum that night.
We staggered to the car where I paused to puke my guts out at the driver's side back tire before (being a proper Southern gentleman) I helped her into the passenger's seat and then staggered around and dropped into the driver's seat.
Was I in
ANY condition to safely drive a Volgo? Not just no but HELL, NO!!! We were both shit faced drunk, though.
Anyway, I'm sitting there in the driver's seat, grappling for the keys to the car when a police car with two officers in it pulls up near us in the parking lot.
The Cops: "Are you okay?"
Me: "Yeah, she's just looking for a music tape."
They nodded at my nonchalant (and THANKFULLY NON-GARBLED) response and pulled away.
End of story: I drove us back to her place along every back road we could find.
