Have you ever phoned 911 by accident. And then tell the arriving cops it was a mistake

I've done it twice. I dialed directory assistance wrong but the cops still have to show up and check the whole house to make sure the bad guys didn't tell you to call them off and say you dialed wrong.

No, it's a fear of mine, accidentally hitting that emergency button

@faery yeah I'm especially paranoid now when I use the phone

@atlantic59 I would be too. Can't stand the cops coming around. I'll probably be paranoid about it now that we had this chat

I wonder how stressed the service men who man the nuclear missile launch buttons are? I know they are well trained but...

@atlantic59 They probably have a complicated code that's hard to do by accident. Some probably fantasize about taking us all with them, tho, yikes
