tbf, usually when the police and military type agencies start being given outfits specifically designed to look cool, its often because of an authoritarian group getting power and wanting people to idolize or join up with those professions, so having unusually good looking police outfits can be a bit suspicious

[-] blandfordforever@lemm.ee 5 points 4 months ago

All the best cops wear high-viz

[-] joyjoy@lemm.ee 1 points 4 months ago

I support our ~~meter maids~~ parking attendants and crossing guards.

[-] blandfordforever@lemm.ee 3 points 4 months ago

For real, though. Pick the cop least likely to be on a power trip.

[-] joyjoy@lemm.ee 2 points 4 months ago

I'm thinking... the one in a skirt and heels.

[-] dmention7@lemm.ee 27 points 4 months ago

I don't know the correct way to spell zhouzh, but I know for a fact it is not "jooj".

[-] 9point6@lemmy.world 9 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Believe it or not I think the correct answer is genuinely in the middle for once

Jouzh

The start is slightly shorter than the end

Okay, well just remember you made me do this:

Genre - nre

&

Beige - Bei

It's now spelled

Geouge

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago

It’s tough but fair. I’ll have the t-shirts made up in the morning.

[-] vivavideri@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Is it french? (don't come for me I can't conjugate in french to save my fucking life 😂 but jouez looked...more pleasant to my eyeballs lol)

[-] Eheran@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

I do not understand either of those, what do you mean?

[-] mkwt@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Is it anything like juche, the Korean-supremacist ideology of North Korea?

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 19 points 4 months ago

As a kid I always wondered why most police uniforms were black. Bad guys wear black. As an adult, I get it now. Bad guys wear black.

[-] Signtist@lemm.ee 14 points 4 months ago

Now I'm picturing a cop trying to walk all confidently out of his squad car during a traffic stop while wearing a frilly maid outfit.

[-] Liz@midwest.social 1 points 4 months ago

We could even get the military in on this.

[-] Liz@midwest.social 3 points 4 months ago

Ah? Ah? What do you think?

[-] Omniraptor@lemm.ee 2 points 4 months ago

This thread isn't complete without that pic of WW2 British soldiers operating coastal defense artillery in drag

[-] Jimbo@yiffit.net 4 points 4 months ago

Last person that tried to do something like that got fired

We always lose the good ones

[-] SacredHeartAttack@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

This is also how I spell it, but is it the correct spelling?

Edit: I should have just read further.

[-] imPastaSyndrome@lemm.ee 3 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

They claim it's jouzh but I don't agree, the Oxford dictionary has zhuzh

[-] noodlejetski@lemm.ee 2 points 4 months ago

zhuzh and zhoosh according to Merriam-Webster.

[-] Aux@lemmy.world 11 points 4 months ago

Disagree, their uniform is pretty great!

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Ok that is kind of styling.

[-] Aux@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

Also no guns, so I don't have to worry to be shot for shits and giggles :)

[-] ivanafterall@lemmy.world -1 points 4 months ago

Really owning the whole dickhead thing.

[-] radicalautonomy@lemmy.world 7 points 4 months ago

It's spelled "zhuzh", I think.

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago

The internet didn't seem to agree on one spelling so I went with phonetic.

[-] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 5 points 4 months ago

This is by far the pettiest complaint about law enforcement I’ve heard in my entire life.

[-] tfw_no_toiletpaper@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

look up all meanings of "to serve"

[-] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 1 points 4 months ago

While we're at it, why aren't the cops brining donuts to my house?

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

Oh - hahaha - yeah, no . . . Ehhhh, no they’re not here to serve. Heh.

Naw.

[-] Finalsolo963@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 4 months ago

Dressing schlubby is how the Nazis are disguising themselves lately.

[-] Shardikprime@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

Yeah we should dress them with more style.

HUGO BOSS STYLE

[-] loudWaterEnjoyer@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 4 months ago

Haha Nazis funny

[-] RandomStickman@kbin.run 3 points 4 months ago

Is this it? Am I finally too old to understand The Youths™?

[-] SonicBlue03@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 months ago

Because they know nobody's tipping.

[-] Isoprenoid@programming.dev 2 points 4 months ago

I don't understand the reasoning. The serving class has never been pretty to behold. Wealthy people are the pretty ones.

We know that they're wealthy because they haven't got shit all over them.

[-] felsiq@lemmy.zip 8 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

The joke is with the double meaning of “serve”, which is also slang for looking good or having good style

[-] Isoprenoid@programming.dev 5 points 4 months ago

Ah, thank you, young lad for helping this old person cross the language road today.

[-] Etterra@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

They're here to serve man, obviously.
