Police say that a 24 year old Middletown man was caught masturbating in the Cromwell, CT Shop Rite parking lot Friday night. According to CT Post, police responded to a call of a man who appeared to be pleasuring himself and authorities arrived on scene around 10 pm. Officers say they saw the man  “sitting in the driver’s seat with his belt and zipper undone.” The man was arrested and charged with breach of peace and public indecency.

We are reading more and more everyday about alleged public diddle sessions. Maybe he got all jazzed up about the deals in the weekly circular? Or, it's possible he went too hard squeezing the avocados in the produce section and could not come down off that high, whose to say?. What I do know is it's a tug fest out there and people are really getting after themselves (allegedly).

What happened to hooking up with people? You remember that s---? Back in the day, people would take some chances, lay it on the line, ask someone out and go on a date. You would talk to them on the phone for hours, take them to Applebee's or a movie and if it went well, you'd get into the heavy petting and in some cases, the love making.

These days it seems easier and safer to just give it to yourself rather than jump through all these hoops. The only problem is, you have to make it home first because people get upset when you going HAM in the Shop Rite parking lot. Apparently this is not something everyone wants to see. You have a dude (allegedly) doing the "Can Can" in the parking lot and people are going to make some phone calls you see.
