An AM radio talk show exchange from the '90s I'd rather forget I heard:
Host: What did you do?
Caller: I done somethin' bad.
Host: You hit her, didn't you? No sympathy. I don't hit you; you don't hit me. Them's the rules.
The host then went on to his next caller. I still wonder, if the caller did assault someone, why he did that and why he would admit to it, at least indirectly, to a stranger on a talk show.
