bon bon's being all ironic....
Yes. Men like sports. Men watch the action movie, they eat of the beef, and enjoy to look at the bosoms. A thousand years of avenging our wrongs and that's all you've learned?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

So tomorrow's my court date. I've never been to court before. I'm already all nervous. Should I dress up? Should I always say "your honon" - like, even if I'm just answering a question, should I say, "Yes, your honor"?
I imagine I should suppress my urge to say to the judge, "Woah, I thought all you dudes wore those funky wigs!", huh?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Is Allyson around? I have questions and would like to for her to answer if possible.
I am here.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

What's it for, Tommyrot, if you don't mind saying. Is this traffic court? I wouldn't worry too much in that case.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Also he thinks linguistic change takes hundreds of years.
FWIW, this is not totally wrong -- major pronunciation shifts tend to take a long time (or else happen suddenly every 500 years for no reason we can explain, depending on your theory) and grammar takes a long time to change usually.
It's just, yeah, everything else you would call linguistic change -- new words, words becoming archaic, change in a word's meaning -- those happen alla time, and instantly, and have since like forever. As anyone who has had to read a government report full of mysterious nonsense-jargon could tell you.

Yeah. I was driving with a suspended license (because I failed to pay a speeding ticket in Utah). I didn't know my license was suspended, as I never got anything in the mail telling me. That, howerver, was my fault, as I had not updated my license info when I moved. So there's several levels of naughtiness going on here....
