The operator answers. "You again? Now what?"
"I broke the basketball hoop!"
"What?"
"I said I broke the basketball hoop?"
"I think you're pulling my leg again. You're too short to do something like that!"
You feel a little hurt by that, so you say, "No I'm not! I totally jumped from like half court and slammed it like the Shaq, and the whole backboard exploded everywhere! Now everyone is mad at me!"
"Sorry, kid, we can't send anyone for broken hoops or false alarms. You'll have to take care of this yourself. Goodbye."
Oh well. Nice try, though.
