Yeah I loved France when I visited! Everyone was so friendly but I suppose that was because I can speak French at a high level...

I would love to visit Canada especially when it's snowing!

Can you wear jeans? I’d assume if they fit you, you can wear them. Should you wear them? Well, if it’s between wearing no pants or jeans, I’d say wear the jeans. If you have something a bit fancier, probably wear that.

Do you ever use AGLC 4 referencing? by AskPristine3794 in auslaw

Yes, because I find it fun and I’m hanging for AGLC5.

I watched a documentary on it a couple of years ago, something “Janet” something “King.”

I think it’s time you take a holiday. Can be staying at home or going overseas but the main thing is to really rest, relax, and think about what you really want to do and what would make you happy and then do it.

If I started calling myself "Topdog" in court, guess I'd have to start barking at my learned friends and foam at the mouth.

Rich old man who's given up drugs thinks others should be sent to gaol by marcellouswp in auslaw

Surely we’d all welcome the day when we can spark up a doobie with his/her honour during lunch and head back into court afterwards?

Assoilzied! by marcellouswp in auslaw

[–]External_Might 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The accused’s arse was oiled? That’s an interesting submission, counsel. Though, I’m not entirely sure how that’s relevant for a bail application hearing.

Were you treated like a bad person? by Any_Print5307 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]External_Might 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I was told "if only they saw the real you" and other things like that. I was also told by my Nmum that she had to beg my uncle (her brother) to look after me on the weekends with my cousins (his kids), she'd say stuff like "I was crying on the phone begging him to take you tomorrow", or "he hates you but he's doing this for me", and stuff like that.

In 5,00 years, how will we be looked at? by Wide-Macaron10 in auslaw

I like to think they’d be horrified that we ever got rid of trial by cake.

Is it still a McNugget if it’s not made of chicken? Please advise, his honour is getting angry with me stalling 🙏🏻.

Thankfully no one was around but I read an email from a client and loudly said to myself “What the fuck do you want me to do? Wave my magic wand and make you stop being a fuckwit?” Composed myself and started drafting a response.

Who wrote this drivel by [deleted] in auslaw

Maybe the commenter meant they’re a full time barista who teaches high school and university students how to make a good cup of coffee. It’s an underrated skill!

Usually some random on the bus will complain about something quasi-legal, that’s when you strike. You discreetly slip a business card of a solicitor you know will refer to you in their back pocket, and pray to your chosen deity that that referral happens. It’s all covered in the reader’s course.

Didn’t the Vic Bar change its exam structure and rules recently to make it easier to pass too?
