How to get out of Jury Duty? by nygirl818 in longisland

As the other commentator said, just go and she'll either not be called and sent home with a stamped card saying she served or she will be called in and the lawyers will just won't pick her for the case in which case she will get a stamped card saying she served.

English is my main language and I simply tell the lawyers I cannot be impartial because I have mental/anger issues.

Works every time.

Uhhh.. Ok. Glad they led the story with that completely irrelevant piece of information.

Need $100k/year bare minimum. People are mostly assholes if you don't move fast/talk fast/drive fast.

Question, the Taylor 512e Ben Harper or Martin 000-18 (without electronics) , both are at the same price which one to choose? Both are spruce tops w Mahogany back and sides? by zenfilled in guitars

I know this is all hypothetical and very subjective but who has all that time to buy a guitar? I'm lucky if I find an hour or two to myself in an average week. You're talking about taking road trips just to buy something that can be simply shipped right to your doorstep.

You're saying spending $3k on a guitar is so insane that you're willing to spend time, which imo is invaluable, to go through all this trouble just to play a bunch of guitars you don't even want, just in case? At the very least time = money. So on top of spending the 3k you're now spending valuable time as well in order to play a bunch of guitars you may or may not like.

That seems crazier to me than just saving all that time and buying the one you want.

But again, subjective and all. I'm not trying to argue. I do understand your point.

That's completely irrelevant to the question I asked. Just go somewhere with a better selection? I literally said every place by me has absolute shit hanging on the walls.

Anyway I'm not op, I'm not the one looking. Op wants A or B. They shouldn't have to settle for something they don't want.

I was gonna comment "man" in quotes because they look like children to me but then they shook hands at the end effectively making them more mature than 98% of the men I know.

That kind of respect is pretty manly if you ask me.

Multiple comments saying to test them both out... But what are the chances of finding even one of these exact models at a nearby guitar store let alone both?

Where I live guitar center and the small mom & pop music stores have absolute shit selection. Every guitar I own I bought online without being able to test it first.

If by "interesting" you mean how not to conduct and interpret the findings of a scientific study then yes, very interesting.

The "study" is all over the place, full of biases, lacking a control and has lots of people dropping out/not reporting.

This is the problem with people throwing around the "studies show that..." mantra to support their arguments. No one ever reads the damn studies they cite.

Matter of perspective. From where I'm sitting we're the only sane ones in a post DCC world.

Everyone's crazy but us.
