True story, I once got a barks root beer and the cashier decided to put it in a paper bag like it was a real beer and while I was walking home because I lived like four blocks away from the gas station, a cop pulled me over and he was like, "what you got in the bag boy?" And I responded, "it's a beer". And he said, "why the fuck you drinking a beer walking down the street" and I'm like, "cause it's a root beer!" and he got mad at me and drove off.

And it was one of those stupid things that people do, not even a funny story, but the picture reminded me of it, but it was extra stupid because I was a brown teenager in the deep south.
