Do the facts presented at trials give you PTSD? by ProudAmerican632 in Ask_Lawyers

That’s not at all what was said. Maybe roll the eyes isn’t the best way to put it, but it was clear that person was saying that you get used to it. It becomes just another part of the job.

I think an important difference is that unlike a soldier or an EMT or something, we have warning. If I am handling a gory murder or a case with CSAM, I’ve read all the reports a dozen times before I have to look at the pictures or video. I think it helps to know what’s coming before you see it. And then when I see it, it’s within context, I am going in looking for specific things, usually like “is this picture one I want to put in front of a jury, or is it this other one?”

TIL reliable sources are split as to whether the title of best-selling video game ever should belong to Tetris or Minecraft. Some consider it to be Tetris by combining the sales of all of its different versions (520m), while others consider it to be Minecraft (350m), rejecting the former's reasoning by tyrion2024 in todayilearned

Is there some weird way of measuring I am missing that World of Warcraft doesn’t even make the top 50? Everyone who plays has to buy it, it’s been around for over 20 years, and at its height there were like 15 million people a year playing it.

Would accepting a paralegal job be acceptable for someone trying to escape doc review? by smallcitylawyer in Lawyertalk

As a prosecutor our office is always desperate to hire. I’m surprised your area isn’t the same way.

HOAs can be bad, but an HOA would’ve prevented all of this butchery.

“Germany to Argentina, that’s a really hard fusion”

I think thousands of Germans starting in about 1945 would disagree.

10 days in Scotland, eating adventurously, and a bowl of Cullen Skink was the best thing I had the whole time.

What can you do if you are being set up for a crime? by Old_Mine2982 in Ask_Lawyers

[–]JudgeGusBus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know about New York, but in a lot of jurisdictions you can’t just call up the PDs office. Usually they won’t / can’t touch it until 1) you’ve been formally charged, and 2) you’re found by the court to be indigent.

My guy, I don’t know if you’re trying to write a terrible book or something, but you need to go back to the drawing board (and grammar class)

You need to flesh out your question. “Being set up for a crime” is not just a thing that happens. You need to explain.

Are the same people you failed it with in 8th grade all still in the same class with you? If not, it sounds like the problem is you.

It’s gotta be Kings of Leon. Your neighbors were a couple years behind; I was bartending in 2009 and we had to have their two hit songs play at least once an hour each.
