Dad dies, I get a $5000 payout from his pension: taxable. Stepmom who waited to call the ambulance for 10 minutes gets a $60k life insurance payout: no taxes. Cool story, government.

Shout out to Laura Lowe's in Hannibal for helping me return a water heater that had been damaged due to being packaged upside down, while I waited on hold for 40 minutes, who kept looking up numbers for the manufacturer and calling on different lines to get through.

Not that there was a chance I’d root for Philly, but booing someone receiving an award for giving back to their community…. They make it so easy to root against them

Things not to ask a judge: can I speak to your supervisor?

Guys, I think I accidentally answered a question involving the Rule Against Perpetuities and I’m a little scared. I’m also not going to look up the answer because I wanna live in the fear for a little while longer.

Firsts don’t happen a lot in my line of work after almost 9 years. Today a parent complained that I WASNT talking during a meeting…. That’s a first.

Got my bestie listening to Sinisterhood and she just told me she thinks she loves Heather and Christie more than her other favorites. This is the achievement of my year.

Don’t tell me there’s no difference in being a female attorney. Not when only one male attorney showed to support a local female attorney in her appeal, and the rest didn’t even know it was happening. Women support women!

If using public records and social media to learn a flirty guys entire history after knowing his friends name and only his first name is wrong, I don’t wanna be right (or murdered).

UPDATED: After the verdict, Jones, who had just won the case, took issue with the statements made by the CourtTV panelists and social media against his opponent, Schnack. muddyrivernews.com/top-stories/co…

This. This is what civility in the legal profession looks like. We go at each other like our lives depend on it, but we protect each other when we feel one of us is being treated unfairly. *no comment was made on what the male attorney wore, FYI….

Just a reminder that James and Jimmie discussed during the Eldridge,MD episode of Small Town Murder that America hadn’t had a “good batch of dead yet in a while.” 🤣🤣🤣 hindsight is 2020 and so was Covid

What kind of trash human gets married to his mistress while his kids are on vacation with their mother, when we’re not sure the divorce is final…. Keep it classy, sir….

If you think of a custody case as a “battle,” you AND your kids have already lost. Kids are not won or lost.

Oh cool. All I have to do is *think* of a case and I start spiraling with my to-do list… I’m very tempted that next vacation I’m gonna leave my phone at the office. That way I can’t check my email or see texts.

You’ve listened to too many episodes of Crime In Sports when watching a game, you hear a junior, and you wanna give them a quick Google to see if they committed crimes.

I hope everyone speculating on Kate Middleton the past couple months are real proud of themselves for forcing her to reveal serious health issues before she was ready. She literally asked for the bare minimum and y’all couldn’t give her the benefit of the doubt.

I sincerely hope Richard P with IRS customer service has a good life. We commiserated over a-holes that make life hard, and he shared karma-laden wishes for the man making my life difficult. I don’t believe his actual name is Richard, but the vibes are still sent his way.

No, person I went to law school with 10 years ago, I’m not interested in your fun run on a Tuesday in Wichita, or your firms open house, or your women’s power lunch…. I live 8 hours away and you spam invite everyone.

This is pathetic. We can’t quit on our kids — they deserve better.
