Moved to L.A. from Philly about 2.5 years ago, and despite my best efforts, this city has finally grown on me (I knew I was doomed when my thoughts changed from "who cares what kind of car you drive as long as it gets you around" to "where's MY DAMN BMW, Mother F$@CKERS!!!???").
I'm the kind of person who will do anything just for kicks or to make friends laugh. For instance, when I once was mistaken for a prostitute in Paris, I maaaay have negotiated with the dude before informing him i was already hired for a private party (a boy should always know his street price, right?). Given rampant inflation and the introduction of the Euro, I won't say what he would have paid.
In the name of Law School ending forever and exams starting, one last bit of legal "humor" (if such a thing exists)...
Which Federal Rule of Civil Procedure Are You?
YOU ARE RULE 20(a)!
You are Rule 20, an important part of the Federal Rules' policy of permissive joinder. You are designed specifically to allow as many parties
in an action as can be tried efficiently, and you'll include someone as long as there is some factual overlap between a claim involving them and the rest of the case at hand. You are popular, out-going, and are never far from
friends. However, your overly gregarious nature and magnanimous approach do make things a bit crowded--you're the reason that lawsuits
are often cluttered with innumerable parties and even more numberous claims for relief. Still, despite the crowds that you attract, you
can't argue with the efficiency of getting everything done at once!
Hmmm..... Permissive Joinder.... Sounds a bit dirty, no?
