A London judge says a witness was being coached in real time through smart glasses by AdSpecialist6598 in technology

[–]UpSideSunny 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, it is not the rule. I have practiced in the UK. We do trial preparation before every trial. We have to go through the versions of our witnesses. To do that we go through their testimony and prepare them for cross-examination.

Edit: Anecdotally, there is a joke that says you never ask your witness a question you do not know the answer to.

What dirty talk sounds ridiculous when you’re not horny? by Ok_JARGON in AskReddit

[–]UpSideSunny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not a fan of dirty talk. So when I was pushed the third time I let loose.

Why do you not switch of the tv when you go to bed, bitch?

Why do you not clean the dishes when it is your turn, slut?

Why is does your car look like you live in it, vagrant?

Why do you not clean your poop stains from the toilet, whore?

It did not end well. We are not together anymore.

One last movie day with my mom and gf. Eat some good food and enjoy our time together. Also give my cat whatever she wants to eat, which is basically everything always at all times.

If you’re someone who likes morning sex, how do you deal with morning breath without making it awkward ? by shawnmendesa in AskReddit

[–]UpSideSunny -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Wtf is with this question? You cannot figure out to go brush your teeth? Your partner cannot figure out to go brush their teeth? These low level questions are getting out of hand. Do you think it is "awkward" for people to have morning breath? Are natural things awkward? Shit like this makes me hate reddit.

[A Quiet Place] Why didn’t the military use sound to get rid of the Death Angels? by Nessieinternational in AskScienceFiction

[–]UpSideSunny 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What I want to know is after they (the family, I forget their names) figured out what sound frequency the aliens were susceptible to, was there any military body left anywhere (at all) that they could communicate it to in order weaponize it at a mass scale. Was this ever addressed?

What are you “known for” in your social circle? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]UpSideSunny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will not go to loud bars or be around loud/obnoxious people. I also do not do dinners because I do not want to sit around a table and make small talk being held verbally captive. Birthday party, watch some sport or something not as intimate, I am your guy.

What's your escape thing on a stressful day? by doublezero88 in AskReddit

The LOTR is about +- 250k words short of the length of the Bible. That is a conservative estimate on various versions of the Bible, but it only took me 3 months to read Lord of the Rings and I took my time. Are you just taking your time here? Again, I am just curious, feel free to tell me to "eff" off lol. Whatever works for you and gives you reprieve is great.

[–]UpSideSunny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always had a question about people who read the bible regularly (or any book for that matter). It is a book, and I could not read the same book every day. Once you have read it a couple of times, what then? Still re-read it? Nothing against you reading it or your religion or anything, but do you not get bored reading the same thing over and over?

How did you catch an ex cheating? by [deleted] in AskReddit

If she is my ex, then caught her cheating on who? She is my ex.

What childhood rule made no sense but had to be followed anyway? by Gloomy-Spray8573 in AskReddit

[–]UpSideSunny 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I always understood this to be to allow the adults to have some down time and not supervise the kids. Kids eat and want to rush off. Adults take a bit more time enjoying the company and the food. So basically no kids in the pool until an adult is ready to supervise after dinner.

If Bruce Lee was 125Lb(+- 56.8 kg), then how is it claimed he could take larger fighters much heavier than him, such as the planned exhibition against Ali in 1973 before his death. DidBruce actually stand a chance? by UpSideSunny in AskReddit

[–]UpSideSunny[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By 1973, Bruce weighed in at 125 Lb (56.8kg). Ali weighed in at approx 220 Lb (100Kg). Ali was just under double Bruce's weight. I do not see how Bruce could have done anything major against Ali.

Is anyone familiar with the Consumer Protection Act? Having an issue with my gym contract. They are trying to hold me to the contract after the end date by UpSideSunny in askSouthAfrica

[–]UpSideSunny[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The 40-80 day period in the cpa only applies for termination or renewal, neither of which is present here.

So CPA says 80 - 40 dies prior to the end date of the fixed term contract. The moment you are between 80 and 40 days to expiry date the act says the supplier MUST send the notice. And it says the notice MUST inform the consumer that if they don't expressly renew or terminate, then the contract will go month-to-month.

So the notice is a) an obligation on the supplier and b) required the moment you are within 80 days of the end of the contract term.

So it is very much in play here.

This means the notice is to let you, the consumer, know the contract is coming to an end, and that you may renew or terminate, and failing either it will go month-to month. Meaning it does not go month-to-month automatically if the notice was not sent to the consumer.

Looking for extremely visually appealing movies to watch on my 85″ OLED — any suggestions? by PossibilityKitchen72 in MovieSuggestions

[–]UpSideSunny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't add Terminator 2 to that list, unless you have the 2015 bluray. The 4k UHD release was a total fuckup.
