I got brought to the police station for some trivial 18 year old kid shit back in the day, and my fucking D.A.R.E. officer took all the money out of my wallet and said it was proof of future wrongdoing. I asked for a receipt. And he said I'd have to prove it was my own money first.

I wrote my initials on every big bill for years after that.

Bastards.
