Does this mean I've officially got more attention than half of Law Twitter? Am I a real lawyer now? :story:

I also like how DopeHat tried to paint us like we're giving legal analysis. The only differences between our analysis of the Vic case and Law Twitter's is that we actually read and follow the case, and Law Twitter considers themselves lawyers.

They're actually, in some cases, professionals, so have much more cause to be embarrassed by their lackluster half-assed shitty "hot takes."
 
What happened to Popehat? Thought Nick said he was actually a great lawyer. At this point he probably deserves his own thread on here.
He did, but that was in the past, like nearly 2 decades ago. He's old-fashioned in his analysis and has a severe case of TDS. Think of him like Al Bundy, always talking about his high school football days. Due to that reputation, LawTwitter wants asspats from him and for him to notice them ("notice me, Senpai~")
Anyway, it is twitter, and he can be as exceptional as any other twitter use, so I'd take it with a grain of salt. It is funny how he said early on he didn't want to be involved with the faggotry of lawtwitter jumping on vic but I guess he now wants to join the spergfest with his own shittakes.
 
Ken, buddy, your initial inclination as illustrated with fair trade artisanal gifs a couple months ago was correct.

You're wading in to waters so exceptional you might not escape if you commit.

And now you are reading Kiwifarms. And interacting with them.

Hold up a second and think about this...

IIRC SCA is some kind of historical LARP. They try to be as historically accurate, etc. So, a Japanese man aspiring to be an upper-level bureacrat would kinda fit. It'd be like, aspiring to be a Lord or whatever.

SCA is generally pretty boring, imo.

There are certain larp-ish elements to the SCA, but if you imagine a scale from pure LARP to Civil War Reenactment type events, it's going to be a little closer to the Reenactment side of the scale. There are three main avenues to getting in-group prestige and the ability to lord oneself over everyone else; becoming a Knight through kissing the right butts on the battlefield, becoming a Laurel by kissing the right butts in the circle of people doing research and trying to force everyone else to be more correct in their historical reenactment, or becoming a Pelican by kissing the right butts in the group of people who actually make the group work (think the volunteers at conventions, only giving themselves titles and special decals to wear on their outfits). The people who actually bother to create a historical persona that is more than a name, country and date are pretty autistic.

Current Group: Barony of Lonely Tower
Don't let him fool you. Uji is actually a ninja. It has been handed down through his family for five generations.

This was the wrong rabbit hole to wander down. It seems that some group is having a war for Western Pennsylvania.

From what I've heard, SCA is mostly an excuse to get into people's pants. Society of Consenting Adults and all that.

The main draw for the SCA is going to a camping event where you pitch a tent in a field, engage in mock battles by day and build a bonfire for some heavy drinking, belly-dancing and general debauchery by night. The Consenting Adults moniker is certainly apt. The fight for Western Pennsylvania is probably Pennsic, which is a yearly event & the largest SCA event. They'll get upwards of 10,000 people out for that. They divide different areas of the country/world into kingdoms, and there are a variety of different inter-kingdom wars that happen yearly, in addition to inner-kingdom squabbles that merit camping out in a field to bash each other over the head with sticks.
 
More backhanded shade from DopeHat: "Kiwi Farms makes #Twitterlaw look competent."

Roasted.

It's a pretty weird flex considering they think KF is nothing more than a Nazi hellhole full of incel school shooters. Considering that, saying "we're better than them!" is like a Chris-Chan A-Log saying "at least I'm not Chris!" How pitifully insecure do you have to be to claim to be better than us like that's an accomplishment?
