Seriously? That blows. I keep seeing "Sony Digital 4K" at the start of most of the movies I've seen so it's kind of shitty they're not actually doing that. Then again, I'm not convinced I'd care all that much when I go to regular theaters. I usually go to ArcLight if I care about the picture quality enough. … Read more

Me too. :) Read more

What's it like being the foreman, and how do you end up getting selected for the job? Read more

That's really nice. :) There seems to be this mentality that the courts are out to get you when you get jury service, but from what I've seen they're more often kind and understanding. Read more

Thanks for backing me up on it. :) I really didn't want this to be an article about escaping jury duty, but one that put out as much accurate information out there as possible. When I did my research I got a lot of bad information on the internet. I was skeptical so I spoke with lawyers, and found out how much of… Read more

I left that out of the myths because it's dangerous territory and I didn't want to go there. :) Yes, it's unlikely you'll be charged, arrested, and convicted for evading jury duty but the government does keep that on record. If you get in trouble for some other reason in the future, even for something you didn't do… Read more

That is very weird. Although I guess my mother, who is coming up on 60 (I'm sure she'd love to know I'm thinking of her age that way), has never been called once in her entire life. She's always voted, owns property, has a registered vehicle, and so on. It's pretty weird. But she's in Minneapolis and I don't… Read more

Yes, that is a good point. I made a friend this time around who was outright excused from the case without even seeing the judge because she ran her own business. Read more

Yeah, I hope I get to do a shorter case next time. I think it'd be good to have the experience if it's not horribly disruptive and financially damaging. :) I do find the whole system very interesting. Read more

Wow, that's crazy that an employer would be that dumb. It sounds like it really worked out well for your friend, though! I guess that's the best outcome you could hope for. Sounds like he's a smart guy. Read more

Vote: ASUS RT-AC66U

Haha, hopefully in a condom. :-P This is more pointing out that this is a riskier activity than people think, not that a riskier alternative is better. Read more

Yeah, that's definitely an important kindness. Read more

There are. Personally, I do not understand why the hell anyone would want this. I don't want to do it to anyone, and I don't want anyone to do it to me. But they exist. I've met some and heard others call into podcasts. I assume there are far less women who want it than men who want to do it, but those women do… Read more

When I was a kid, oral sex was illegal. You had to go uphill in the snow both ways just to get to an oral sex safe house. This was also back when all cops did was eat donuts and couldn't make it up a hill, especially during the snowy winters in Minnesota, so there was a logic behind it. Read more

She probably had that Canadian boyfriend who ejaculated organic solvents. :) Read more

Damn right. :) Read more

It's not bad if it's from spinach. That must be a lot of spinach, though! Read more

That would be the least work I ever did for a medal! Read more
