Pretty cool except for the part where I was really terrified and now my knees are all dizzy.

Top loser: Pushing Daisies

Well, I have to say I was unimpressed with the first episode and don't see how it would help to attract new viewers. The main plot was confusing, and I don't think the recap would have been entincing or easy to follow as a new viewer either. As a fan, it was simply annoying.

Now tagless for your comfort.

After three hours of needing to pee, I said screw it and discreetly opened the passenger door and copped a squat, during a lull in traffic. A cop pulled up 2 seconds after I was back in my seat.

That could have been awkward.

Our wings are not tired.

Heh, I bet the cop has peed on the side of the road.

True!

He just wanted to make sure I had someone comin for me. I guess I do. Tow driver called me to clarify my location.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

copped a squat

Oh, this is a good one. Over the summer, I was at a picnic, and my friend asked if I think "pop a squat" means to pee outside, or just sit down. I was like, well first of all, it's "cop a squat," but then I'm not sure -- I think I could go either way with context.

What say you all? Cop v. pop, sit v. pee.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

What say you all? Cop v. pop, sit v. pee.

What I've heard most often is "plop a squat," and always to mean "hey, grab a seat, sit down, etc."

I think it might vary by region.

I used it in this case because of the actual cop. I mostly use it as "sit". Unless I'm in a bathroom or peeing in front of police.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Cop a squat = pee outside.

Karate is complete. Now we head home.

Me neither! I'd probably get the idea, though.
