So.. I call my lawyer
 

I need a favor from him. All I need for him to do is call my town's probation department and tell them to reschedule my court date. That telephone conversation will probably take 2 minutes, max. He tells me, "Well I'll have to charge you for an hour's work which is $200 or you can call them yourself."

ARE YOU FUCKING JOKING ME? You want ME to pay YOU $200 for a fucking phone call? I'll do it myself, no-good-lawyer. Thanks for having my back! You really do seem to care about my case and not the money! Thank you, lawyer, for proving the stereotype wrong!

@($*&@#(*$&@#(*YHIFJSDNBFKJsdf

bye

That does seem a bit daft.

Does he charge $200 per hour, or per action, or something?

For that much, you'd better be getting a blow job out of it.

My last lawyer cost me $1500, and he didn't get me shit. I got full punishment and all possible fines. BS.....................

I ain't saying she a gold digger, but she ain't messin' with no broke bloke.

Yeah $200 per hour but how the fuck you gonna round up 2 minutes into 60 minutes? Ridiculous, I tell ya!

Most all legal workers are money hungry. And that's it. They have no compassion, whatsoever. But think about it, would you? If you were a High end lawyer, would you be? I might, I might not...but that's not the field I'm getting into so it doesn't matter.

No I wouldn't be a money-hungry dickhead like that! All I'm asking you to do is a simple fucking favor. It'll take 2 minutes out of your life. I already paid you $800 and you can't make a phone call for me?

I work at a law firm so I'm used to their douchebaggery, but it's still a pain in the ass.

Well that lawfirm is paying for you to sit on zel. and myspace :P. I'm just saying that if people see an opportunity to make money, most of them take as much advantage of it as they can, plain and simple. Some people are nice...but they usually end up getting fucked over anyways (at least in my case). The nicer you are to people, the more fucked you are. So, be nice and get fucked or get whatever you can from whoever and fuck them.

That'll be enough out of you!

Reality check.

Looks like your lawyer hates j00.

I'm sure if i was a lawyer, I would be a money stealing asshole. But I would do simple shit like that for free.

That is a terrible mentality. Just terrible. You digust me.


Thanatos, I'd probably just get a different lawyer. But I'm guessing the state appointed him?

Nah, I fuckin appointed him... I didn't know he was gonna be a dickhead. It's too late to get another lawyer, I'm almost done with this whole mess anyway.

then finish it, get rich, get another lawyer, pay him more with your new rich cash, then throw it in the face of the ass lawyer.

Well good luck. And if he decides to be a dickhead again, be like,"GG NO RE, nOOb!"

what the hell did you just say?

What mentality, that a lot of people will take advantage of someone who is nice and not a rampant douchebag?

That's a fact of life, mate.

"So, be nice and get fucked or get whatever you can from whoever and fuck them."

lawyers are douches

now you otice that?

I like fucking...

NO, maybe you've just been extreemly fortunate and met great people. I've come to the conclusion that me giving people the benifit of the doubt is just foolish because most everyone I (or you or anyone) meet are going to somehow going to take advantage of you. Seems to me like lots (most) of people that I meet don't understand Courtesy or Respect and it annoys the fuck out of me because I have ALWAYS been courteous and respectful. UGH. people suck.

I'ma have to agree with that... somewhat, I always try to give the benefit of the doubt before I can read somebody...

Well you need to get a change of scenery, because most of the people I know and have met are pretty chill, and their ages range from 18-30. I don't recall anytime that they took advantage of me.

That's another one of those things that will vary a bit based on your locale.

I live in Southern California, and the overinflated sense of entitlement everyone has here is nauseating.

Yeah you need to get outta vegas or wherever you live, get out into the country, it's much nicer.

I was raised in WY, and we plan on moving back, eventually. The money out here is so good that if we save up as much as we can we can move in 3-4 years and buy a house...that's the plan at least.

Man, I've always wanted to visit Wyoming. Have you been to Yellowstone?

Back on-topic: I finally get my car back today. A week and a half to repair a windshield? Lame.

Yea, I went to yellow stone. I've got pics at my parents, I'll myspace them to you :P. I was young though, like just turned 14.

Ya British as fuck.

Not really, in the country you get alot of the public aid type people with the same bullshit sense of entitlement.

It's pervasive, and I feel that advertisement plays a large role in this.

Intriguing. Go on...

Agreed, completely.

Well, it's rather simple, but I doubt it's the sole contributor.

If you think about the constant barrage of advertisement that we're subjected to, talking about how shopping at X makes us smart shoppers, using Y beauty product will make us beautiful, and so on, the public is essentially being brainwashed into thinking they're superior to others or beginning to look down on others. That naturally leads to an engorged sense of self-importance and self-entitlement.

I think people in the country are far worse than in NYC.

I have this personal loose-theory I discuss now and then with people who live around here. I termed it "Fake Class." The people around here are just half-assed about everything, but extremely, overly and undeservedly proud of their provincial and unimpressive actions. In conjunction with the bar being set extremely low, they are snooty and pompous without justification (not that being a prick is ever justified.)

Example of "Fake Class:" Easter Bunny coming to the town in a helicopter, and using it after-the-fact as a way to advertise the town. (We had the fucking easter bunny come by goddamn helicopter!) *sigh*

Indeed, as country folk tend to be xenophobic.

I also have the special privledge to live in a sport tourist town, and work in a sport tourist hotel. 80% of the guests are suburban morons. The males are of two archetypes: tall and wide shouldered beer-bellied ex-jocks who believe they can get everything they want just by raising their voice, and quiet yet hyper and jumpy nerdy guys who probably do weird things to the bedding.

The females are just one kind: cookie cutter suburban wives who all look, talk, and walk exactly the same way. This is an annoying sneerish kind of way, as if everyone else is below them. I think having an original thought would probably cause them a mental breakdown.

Their kids are the resulting mixture of self-entitlement attitude and "my dad can beat up your dad" based needless arrogance. The kids are all also exactly the same. Many of them are A.D.D. and can't sit down quietly for a goddamn minute.

As one drunk tourist at the restaurant explained it, "this place is great! You just drop the kids off for the week, ditch the wife, go drinking and pick up chicks at the bar!"
