The Internet Is In Love With This Police Officer Who Has The Best Name Ever 😂

The Internet Is In Love With This Police Officer Who Has The Best Name Ever 😂

Some names are really funny in context of a person's occupation. If you had a dentist with the name "Dr. Fang," that's one solid example.

What are some funny names you can think of for a police officer? Well, a police officer from Avon & Somerset Constabulary in the UK may have your brain beat.


ITV News West Country aired an interview with the Constabulary about how the police force is being impacted by severe budget cuts in the wake of Brexit and other complications with the UK's economy:

Towards the end of the interview, a young man by the name of "Rob Banks" comes on screen. A full name which is also a felony under the law--that's a new one!

Banks spoke to his doubt of wanting to carry on with the police considering their lack of resources.

Unfortunately, it did not seem that most were paying attention to the words coming out of his mouth, as his name was far too funny a coincidence.






Inspired by Banks, people began sharing some other funny names within businesses across the country the world:




How do folks' parents not realize the name peril they are sending their children into?






According to Unilad UK, the budget crisis in the police force is plagued by the increase in crime figures over the years.

"Violent crime and the number of people arrested in possession of knives or other weapons have both doubled. Justice for victims has meanwhile fallen with only one in every eight people seeing a conclusion to their investigation."






The crisis is reaching a climax, as "the public is being asked to pay more for their police, officers are considering quitting as there are insufficient numbers to cope with rising crime levels."

Let's hope Rob Banks and his fellow officers see some relief during their time in the force.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
