I would watch this only to see how bad it turns out, but if Liam Neeson successfully makes a career turn like Leslie Nielsen did, then I'm here for it.

Literally everyone in this house is attached to me, including the cat, so that wouldn't be new.

Maybe it would be nice if the dog was attached to SB. I'm tired.

My mom used to have a labradoodle named Toby, and when my ex-wife and I had our house, we would occasionally dogsit for him.

Here he is alongside my hound-terrier mix, Iris.



She was still a puppy at this time. When she got uppity with him, he'd just put one of his massive paws on her head and basically say, "Silence, child."

I refuse to believe that anyone other than Leslie Nielson could play Lt. Frank Drebin. There's no way this works.

I'm pretty sure that getting the guy with the most similar name possible is the very first joke of the movie, but I can't really picture Neeson as a comic actor

Yeah, considering how few people they got through by near 1pm... they're gonna have to start moving to get through everyone today.

Goodluck.

I've always wanted to sit on a case though. This one was going to be a civil case about a wrongful termination and take a week and a half.... so maybe not that one.

My dad got an armored truck attempted robbery back in the day... now that's a case with some hair on its chest.

I'm somewhat blown away that any two people on earth who know each other end up on Jury Duty at the same time in the same city, and then you add in the additional twist that they're two of the 50 people who still post here. Amazing.

I've gotten to the interview stage in two different murder trials over my 3 or so times receiving a summons.

My girlfriend has a husky and thankfully her vocals aren't too bad unless she really throws a fit. I've seen the videos of the ones that are basically screaming and I couldn't handle it.

Also I hope you have leather seats as the hair gets everywhere. I have carpet in my room where she will stay for the weekend and sheds so much I fill the vacuum canister every time afterwards.

When I had jury duty a few weeks ago a friend of mine here in the city also had it. Saw him in line to be let into the juror staging room or whatever but I had known from another friend/his girlfriend to watch out for him. But yes, both of you being in this thread makes it next-level.

Im so tired of remakes that didn’t need to happen.

I saw they remade Mean Girls and it’s like…why? I LOVE Mean Girls and I’m not afraid to say it. The remake is just that, a scene for scene remake with some stuff updated for present day lingo or whatever. It even has Tina Fey and Meadows playing the same characters. It’s the same movie just most of the characters recast.

I thought the new one was based on a stage musical version of the movie. So the singing and dancing would be the reason (although based on the clips I've seen, it's not a very good reason, High School Musical was a made for tv movie almost twenty years ago and has better choreography and stars people that actually look like they could be in high school).

Dog chat - I always had Labs growing up and would highly recommend them. The best dog personality, easy to train, and most importantly - they do not require grooming. I don't have time to get myself a haircut every 6 weeks, I am not about to do that for some labradoodle.

Also, a long time ago I had jury duty the same day as one of my best friends at the same courthouse. Neither of us were picked to be a juror though, we just hung out in the big juror room and then went home.

I've been called up for jury duty probably a half dozen times, but never had to show up in person. I either called (this was in California) and got a message saying I wasn't needed or (in Washington) I logged onto their website the day of and was told the same. One time in California I forgot to call, but given there weren't ever any consequences, I'm guessing I wasn't needed. Now that I work for the post office I kinda wish I would get jury duty, since the feds will pay my whole salary while I'm on a jury. Or at least get called in then dismissed after a couple hours so I could at least get a pay check for the day and still go home early.

Upstairs has an American Bulldog and a pit mix. He's looking to start fostering dogs too and the rescue he wants to work with came out a few weeks ago to check the house out. It was little like when I'd place kids with relatives since the guy with the rescue agency talked with my gf and I little, mostly to see if we're fine with dogs and keep our cats inside, and he checked out our laundry room since that's our only shared space and the dogs can acceas it.

Finally got dismissed. We went through a stretch of about 15 people with just two seats left to fill, then the two people right ahead of me got impaneled back to back. I made it out by the skin of my teeth.

They gave me some stupid prepaid credit card for my ongoing grand jury service with extremely vague instructions on how to actually use it. Which I’m sure is by design; I bet the company that makes the card and the county split the uncollected pay. (This may not actually be how it works, but I don’t know why else they’d do it that way)

I guess it’s silly to be upset about being stiffed $150 from the county while I’m willfully passing on like $8000 of bonus at work, but the heart wants what the heart wants

The credit card company gets a cut of everything you purchase with the card. They probably just are cheaper for the county than hiring someone to send checks to everyone.

Also 8 grand? gently caress, even if you don't want the money that would have been a hell of a rock for the Doctor.
