Tristen didn't know what "coif" meant. His sucker ex didn't know what a "bum" was. Maybe they should both invest in some classes instead of spending money on fronts and clothes and such. I may have missed it, but why was dude in the dog case allowed to being his attorney? I thought that wasn't allowed in small claims court.

Alex is a beast. What a great performance for him. I hope Matt holds up and they meet in the finals. Kerry is strong too, but I don't think she'll be as fast on the buzzer. The last couple of TOCs haven't been enjoyable for me because of my dislike of certain contestants. I will genuinely be okay with any of these contestants winning this year. It certainty will be well-earned.

Sadly, I understood her completely. I won't miss dealing with people like this when I start my new job, btw. Some people call everything liability. What she meant to say was that she had full coverage, meaning physical damage as well.Incidentally, some people do have a liability deductible on their auto policies, but it's pretty rare and usually on a commercial policy for something like a livery exposure, but I won't bore you too much with that. This will be an unpopular opinion, but I was not a fan of JJ ruling it comparative negligence. Yes, I know girlfriend was driving too fast down the lane, but it was up to the other driver to see that and not just back out into traffic. I'm really tired of people backing out of spaces, or pulling right out in front of me, and assuming I'll stop for them. Since I live in a place where insurance, like traffic signals, is just a polite suggestion more people ignore, I stop for drivers who do stupid shit. But it drives me nuts. People have become used to everyone stopping for them, so they drive like they're the only damn car on the road. I'm off to watch Jaden Smith and see what all the hubbub is about.

Don't beat yourself up. Lots of us are told our degrees are useless. People pick on me for having majored in English. Then they see my house and my cars and shut the hell up.

Fish guy even mimicked himself reeling one in. He couldn't get odd my screen fast enough. I don't know what Groucho Trump was trying to do in that second case. I think I remember Salt or Peppa going through a hair phase like that back in the day. The car wash case hit home for me. I had the exact same thing happen to a car years ago, except the damage was to the front of my car. The bar that you straddle with your wheel was not lined up right with my car, so the area under my bumper got pushed in. Since their employees were the ones who'd guided me in, I felt like they were responsible, at least for half. I knew my car wasn't damaged when I took it there because I keep my cars pretty immaculate and garaged, so I would notice a big ass dent on my car. But I couldn't prove they damaged it, and they refused to take any responsibility. So I had to pay my deductible to get the car repaired. Now I wash my cars by hand!

There's no need to apologize for liking or disliking contestants. I only take issue with people who post things like, "I can't believe people feel this way," which I don't see on this board. It's one of the reasons this board is one of my favorites. We all can agree to disagree. I don't feel pressured to stop liking what other people dislike, or vice versa.That being said, you are incredibly wrong about Larissa and Julia. (I kid, I kid. If you'd brought up a dislike for Stefan, we would have a problem!)

It's funny how we rarely see comments about male contestants' hair styles. I don't think she'll win it all, but I'd take Kerry over a number of annoying contestants we've had this season. And I don't give a damn about her hair. It's Jeopardy, not Tabatha Takes Over!

You already got new cases today?

MM gave her a much longer rope than she deserved. She couldn't control herself one bit. I don't care how old she is, she should've been sent out of the courtroom. I ended up turning it off because I couldn't stand to hear his comments about Germans or her comments about him. His hatred of Germans should have stopped him from borrowing a VW. My ex's father was still mad at Japanese people for the war, so he would never ride in a Japanese car, which was fine with me because I didn't want him in my car anyway.

For those who missed it. I only got the first round. Not sure how long the link will work:https://youtu.be/GI4UJfTaxqU?t=16s

Her whining really got on my nerves. I also hated how she only thought she could get money from guys and her ability to flirt. Doesn't she know how to talk to other women? None of the others needed to kiss people in order to get tips.

I was glad not to have smell-a-vision. Both of them looked like they stank. I'm not surprised they lived in total filth.

You may be right. When they mentioned that his wife had only "liked" something, I just assumed they were talking about Facebook. But I could be wrong.

Were both litigants going back and forth on FB? I thought it was just the plaintiff and his friends. Apparently, he hasn't made any friends since college, which is weird to me but whatever.I had a fancy audio/video aftermarket system installed in my last vehicle, which was a Nissan. I just didn't want to spend what the dealership charges for navigation, backup cameras, etc. It saved me about a thousand bucks to do it that way... Until the damn thing started acting up. And, of course, it was right after the one-year warranty expired. First the backup camera went, which cost over $300 to repair. Then the stereo stopped connecting with my phone via Bluetooth intermittently, but never while the guys in the shop were looking at it. If I'd gotten the system Nissan offered, it would still have been covered. Like MM likes to say, sometimes the cheap comes out expensive. I couldn't expect the shop to do anything once the warranty was up because it wouldn't have been fair to them, so I ate the cost of another system. They had some sympathy and gave me a discount and free installation, but only because they offered; I never demanded that. It never dawned on me to round up my college buddies, who'd think me a lunatic for asking anyway, and get them to make up bogus bad reviews online. I think the shop owner should've collected more than he was awarded. It's hard to regain one's business reputation. The grammar during the lawn mower case actually made me question myself about conjugation. I asked myself, "Is it bring, brang, brung? God, that doesn't sound right. Isn't it brought?" You know you're hearing horrific grammar when it makes you question your own!

I'll watch Allison Janney in anything she does. I'm not a Lorre fan, but this show is the one of his I do like. They tackle serious issues with humor, like so many people are forced to do. It is realistic to me. I agree that the ratings are solid enough for it to continue, especially when it seems so hard to find a good network comedy. Also, I've grown to love Anna Farris in this role.

We can't afford one either, but that's because we define "afford" much differently from your average JJ litigant.Afford, to us, means although we may have the cash or credit to purchase something, we have the sense to know our money is better spent elsewhere and needed for more important things. The average JJ litigant thinks afford means you can either hustle someone into paying for it for you, rent it from a buy here, pay here place at exorbitant interest, or buy it when your tax refund comes since that's just free money anyway. Status symbols are more important than actual status. Having grown up poor, I totally get it. Like Jay Z said, "If you grew up with holes in your zapatos, you'd celebrate the minute you was having dough." It took me years to figure out that no one of any real importance to me gave a shit about whose name was on anything I owned. Some people never figure it out. We call them litigants.

A bay of EBay pigs reference from JJ herself. Have I died and gone to heaven? Maybe I'll show that one to my girl in order to turn her into a fan. I told her my friends on the JJ board have offered a taco bar, mimosas, and cheese balls seat belted in for our reception and that we may have to "borrow" some money to you guys so you can come, and her only reaction was: "I thought you didn't want to have a reception." Of course, her reaction had me howling with laughter, so now I'm worried she thinks I may be a bit mental. Did y'all catch the car accident case? I'm calling it The Man Who Wasn't There. That's the kind of idiot who would hit my car. I can't get hit by someone with actual insurance that's paid up; it would be an ass clown like this, bumping his music so loudly that he couldn't even hear me laying on my horn. He said in his hallterview that he isn't even sure if he was there for the accident. He may need to lay off the weed a wee bit.

You're welcome. I only know her from being mentioned in pop culture. I think she has been in some music videos. She's from Philly, and she gives me a sort of a Eve vibe (who is also a Philly chick). In fact, I think the first time I saw her in something I thought she was Eve.When the boys all said "damn" I wondered if I'd ever heard a kid Jack's age curse on a network show. It didn't bother me, but it struck me that it may be new for me. How could I forget Sam and Diane? I was a huge fan of Cheers and of Frasier, for that matter. Maybe they can get a boy for Diane to crush on who is named Sam. I guess Diane would be more likely to crush a boy than to crush on one, now that I think about it.

I haven't watched yet today, so I didn't know about this contest. I'm still shirking my viewing duties as I transform into a bridezilla litigant worthy of JJ's attention, but I am definitely going to enter.Sadly, my betrothed is not a JJ fan. She thinks JJ is mean and condescending (kinda the point, right?) She prefers MM on the people's court. She'll watch JJ with me, but she won't watch it in a marathon session like I like to. She'll sit through one or two and then make me leave the house with her to go do something productive. If I were to win this contest, I'd probably just invite one of you.

I lol'd. Thanks for the laugh!

That was Amber Rose.What a great episode. There were way too many great lines to quote them all, but I love the vibe between Charles and Diane. Are there any other couples with a Diane? We have Jack and Diane and Charles and Diane. When I first saw Charles in the episode in which he wears Dre's sneakers, I found him to be annoying. I've changed my mind about him, and he's now up there with Bow, Pops, and Diane as one of my favorites on the show. I have not seen a Nancy Meyers film. Are they all like that? I'm not as bad as Dre, but I have to be heavily medicated to fly, too. I was fine with flying until I had a really bad flight to Houston in which I thought we were all going to die. I'd never experienced turbulence like that, and I've been a nervous flyer ever since. So, while I realize he was over the top, I could really relate to him. I had a coworker who managed to work in his alma mater, Notre Dame, into every conversation, so that part spoke to me too. I just love this show!

Thanks. Can we put you in charge of the mimosas?

Without Angela and 27 bored, there wouldn't be nearly enough snark. Who's going to point out how much I look like an Olympic power lifter in drag when I attempt to wear dresses or wonder why my fiancé chose to get married in Birkenstocks?!

I'm moving onto greener pastures and starting a new job. I'm quite excited about it. I accepted their written offer today, but now I'm wondering if I should have demanded I be paid in Popsicles instead of money. I'm sure my mortgage company and Ford credit would love it if I paid them in treats! Dude was a clueless idiot. You hired a child, didn't even pay him, and then sued the family when the child did what children do? BTW, I kept mis-hearing the child's name as Pequod. I knew that wasn't right, but I lol'd. I need to ask a favor of my fellow JJ addicts. We've seen our share of unreasonable brides. Yours truly is now engaged. I know I joke about not celebrating marriage equality because it meant I'd no longer have my built-in excuse not to marry my girlfriend, but she asked and I accepted. Here's the favor: if you catch even a whiff of my turning into a bridezilla, please reach through your screen and slap the shit out of me. I don't know why people let trivial things "ruin" their weddings. Unlike JJ, I don't fault anyone for marrying on the cheap. Hell, we're running off to Vegas to do it, and if anyone wants to get themselves there, they're welcome to attend. There will be no formal reception since it's not our first rodeo and we'd rather spend our money on other things. That being said, I think the plaintiffs in the wedding planner case were delusional. I don't think anything the planner did, or didn't do, rose to the level of demanding such a refund. I haven't watched the meth mechanic case today. I'm saving it for later. Between the new job paperwork, and my phone ringing off the hook about the engagement, I had limited JJ viewing time today. OMG, does that mean I'm already transforming into a bridezilla?

I think the defendant had done the graffiti, not his kids. But I could have misheard that.
