Published on: 12th January, 2026

Whoa, hold onto your snacks! We’ve got a wild tale that’ll have you shaking your head and laughing at the same time! This week, we dive into the antics of a 44-year-old dad in Michigan who decided that picking up his kid from school was a perfect time to unleash some serious drama—gun included! I mean, nothing says “responsible parenting” quite like turning the school pickup line into a scene straight outta an action movie. 😂 And just when you think it can’t get any crazier, this dude plays a game of “la la la, I can’t hear you” in court like he’s avoiding chores. Seriously, who knew facing terrorism charges could come with a side of roastin’ the judge? Grab your headphones and get ready to laugh, because this episode is a rollercoaster of ridiculousness! 🎢💥

Transcript
Speaker A:

Good morning.

Speaker A:

It's Haystack.

Speaker A:

And have you ever heard a story so dumb, so stupid that you find yourself looking at the calendar to make sure that it's not April Fool's Day?

Speaker A:

I feel like this is one of those.

Speaker A:

It is not the first of April, but for a guy in Michigan, a 44 year old, allegedly a grown man, he shows up at a middle school trying to pick up his kid.

Speaker A:

The school says, no, you're not allowed.

Speaker A:

And so naturally, like any rational, well adjusted parent, he pulls out a gun and starts blasting outside the school.

Speaker A:

Yeah, nothing says responsible father like turning a school pickup line into a scene from John Wick, Parent Teacher Edition.

Speaker A:

So the school of course goes on lockdown.

Speaker A:

Obviously cops arrest the guy.

Speaker A:

Fast forward where his arraignment, which I can't play audio from cuz there's so much swearing, but essentially it's being held on zoom, which I don't, I don't like all this court stuff online.

Speaker A:

Nothing says justice like a courtroom sponsored by Best Buy.

Speaker A:

Can we get back to in person stuff?

Speaker A:

Especially important stuff?

Speaker A:

Anyway, here's where it gets Olympic level.

Speaker A:

Stupid.

Speaker A:

He refuses to answer any questions, won't even say his name.

Speaker A:

He puts his fingers in his ears, full on kindergarten style.

Speaker A:

Like, la la la la.

Speaker A:

I can't hear you.

Speaker A:

He's.

Speaker A:

He's facing terrorism charges and acting like he got sent to his room without dessert.

Speaker A:

La la la.

Speaker A:

I'm not listening.

Speaker A:

The judge says, just saying, state your name for the record.

Speaker A:

Nope, not until you get a real job.

Speaker A:

He says, a real job?

Speaker A:

The guy is facing terrorism charges and found the time to roast the judges.

Speaker A:

LinkedIn.

Speaker A:

Like, dude, you're.

Speaker A:

You're in court for a gun incident at a school and you're talking about career advice?

Speaker A:

Maybe.

Speaker A:

Maybe focus less on judging the judge's resume and more on.

Speaker A:

Yeah, I don't know, not ending up on Dateline.

Speaker A:

She's wearing robes, you're wearing a jumpsuit and playing peekaboo with a felony.

Speaker A:

That's just wild.

Speaker A:

I mean, basically the only thing he didn't do was try to crawl under a desk and say, you can't see me.

Speaker A:

Like he's in some kind of hide and seek with the justice system or John Cena.
