This looks too fun to pass up. If you saw me being driven by in a cop car, what would you assume I had been arrested for?

Science.
Tuesday, November 11th, 2008 09:30 pm (UTC)
Yah, basically what I'd say, too.

Damn.

Manufacturing an army of evil robots to take over the world... okay, maybe I've been playing too much Mega Man 9.

Lewd behavior in public with a being of unknown origin...

Of course!
Tuesday, November 11th, 2008 08:36 pm (UTC)
Some sort of disturbing the peace equivalent, with robots, or throw lights, or something like that. I'd kind of expect to see your robot marching along behind the police car, actually.

Parkour.

And I'm hoping you'd still be smirking "but it was worth it" as they took you away.

When do we get to do "If I saw you running into my apartment covered in tear gas, what would I assume you had been gassed for?" ? :)
Tuesday, November 11th, 2008 08:57 pm (UTC)
That only happened once. Once! It's time to let it go, man. ;)
Tuesday, November 11th, 2008 09:18 pm (UTC)
Xia got gassed at least twice; were you not along for the second run?

Anyway, to answer the question, at this point in time I'd probably say border-crossing-harrassment.

Defacing public property.

Hint: when spraypainting your credo on government buildings, don't use such long words!

illegal outdoors fire.

more honestly: being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

A handful of years ago, I'd have said 'Critical Mass'.

Now? I dunno, I'd just sigh resignedly and head out to the bank.

*chuckles*

Critical Mass or Critical Mess?
Tuesday, November 11th, 2008 09:18 pm (UTC)
Critical Mass. (http://www.seattlecriticalmass.org/)

aaah, sooo.

Using a robot for purposes of espionage.

Oh, something boring like accidentally creating a wormhole, travelling through it to another universe, and bringing back a bunch of incredibly nifty things/beings/cheese without going through customs.

Creating an Atlatl robot that achieved sentience and attacked a Republican in an attempt to impress you.

Having one of your mad science projects miscontrued as an WMD.

Arson, but you'd be innocent.
Tuesday, November 11th, 2008 10:51 pm (UTC)
That is to say, there wouldn't be any criminal intent.
Tuesday, November 11th, 2008 11:28 pm (UTC)
Pretty much the same thing as these guys. (http://io9.com/5078735/fake-mad-scientists-arrested-under-anti+terrorism-law) :D

Followed the link and have one reaction:

Brains! Not just for decoration! Can now be used to think!
Wednesday, November 12th, 2008 01:49 am (UTC)
Ugh, yes, that's exactly the kind of thing that I would assume if I somehow saw myself in a police car. It's a scary world for doing interesting things in, sometimes.

an out-of-control robot rampage through downtown.

Being in possession of something a police officer doesn't understand, possibly in concert with giving a truthful answer to a police officer that accidentally sounds sarcastic.
Wednesday, November 12th, 2008 02:39 am (UTC)
Oh, that's too depressing. I mean: behaving without due respect for an image of the Queen.
Wednesday, November 12th, 2008 02:40 am (UTC)
"Hey there, big boy!"
Thursday, November 13th, 2008 04:53 am (UTC)
Oh, that's scary
