Some people can't handle rejection, and liquor will only exacerbate that feeling. Johnny Ramos, 41, of Lake Worth, FL was arrested last week after calling 911 over 15 times because a store clerk refused to sell him beer. According to police, Ramos showed up at Cumberland Farms around 10:30 a.m. Monday morning, already wasted, and attempted to buy beer. When a female clerk refused to sell him more, he did what he thought was best at the time.

911 dispatchers said Ramos slurred incoherently and told them he didn't care about an arrest, as he would keep calling until he got what he asked for. He got what he asked for, alright: arrested. He was taken to Palm Beach County Jail and later released under his own recognizance. Not how you want to start the week.
