It’s the Judicial System!

Sorry for the lack of blogging, folks. My mom was visiting this weekend, so that explains why I wasn’t glued to the computer (mental pictures). Although, I had hoped to be able to work on changing up the CSS for the blog a little, but that didn’t happen. Oh well, it’s all good. (Oh my god. I can’t believe I just said “it’s all good,” and not ironically. Clearly I need to go to bed.)

My only news is: today I got a jury summons. Goddamn. I hate having to be a responsible citizen and participate in the judicial system.

    “So there you were, handling important DNA evidence with dry, split ends… you make me sick.”

    I wanna be on a jury! Please, please.

    Make sure to bring a book/iPod because you might be there awhile. Also, don’t eat in the cafeteria. Ew.

    Everyone hates the cafe. There’s a Quizno’s and a Johnny Rockets within two or three blocks of the Justice Building at Underground. There’s also a McDonald’s next door but I don’t know how you feel about that.

    Make sure to go early so you can stake out one of the seats near the outlets: there are only like four of them for the entire room.

    “You’re a disgrace to this judicial system.”

    “Have you been drinking, counselor?”

    “No, no! It’s the judicial system! It’s the judicial system…!”

    (Let’s just do quotes from that Dana Carvey special all day… who cares if it’s only funny to us?)

    When I have I ever cared if others didn’t find it funny?

    Just say that you love our system and how the people are “guilty until proven innocent”. You wouldn’t be there long :)

    Talk about how you want to “fry ‘em,” even if it’s just a charge of theft by taking auto.

    To get out of jury duty, just tell them you’re a blogger, or that you support FIJA.

    Or you could tell them you’re related to this asshole:

    In my hometown I could have whacked the guy and the cops would have arrested him for assaulting me. But big-city cops don’t do that much. They probably would have arrested me for hitting him.
