Always need fries with that. 

Seems the anti part of the drugs didn't quite work.

 ??    ... 

Anybody who has ever taken Xanax knows it makes you so chilled out.  I think he got the wrong pill from his drug dealer pharmacist.

Actualy would not Xanax calm you down and take away your need for excitement ? Just needed any excuse to tell the cops and the courts (neither  would probably  understand this anyway).If he took an asprin he would have said the same thing.

Yes..blame Xanax...now the police can go after and arrest Xanax..give it its day in court and if found guilty, send it to prison to serve its term.

When in doubt.....ALWAYS blame Xanax. 

Most thieves are cowards, and say excuses when they get caught. This guy is just

proving that he is part of that crowd.  Glad he was caught.

Geezer

Would you like fries with the cash, Khup?

Why is it called armed robbery when the bloke only had a stanley knife?

Here we go......another crackdown on Xanax......from now on we have to buy alprazolam....(Thaimade!!)
